Play Market Wonders for Free

You might be used to window shopping on the high street of your local town, or perhaps you make a trip to the nearest mall to see what goods are on offer. However, that will never quite compare to the wonders of a souq style market. Traditionally found across North Africa and the Middle East, these street markets provide an informal trading space for vendors of artisan goods and exotic spices, so expect to be in for some vibrant colours and foreign sounds in the free Market Wonders slot from Betixon software (smells not included).

Set within an old medina of some far away land, this slot machine has 5 reels that present some very attractive goods, the most valuable of which is a mysterious golden oil lamp. The game also features a few familiar characters, including a lowly street seller and his cheeky fez-wearing monkey as well as a beautiful princess. It seems like the game is set up for a narrative adventure worthy of the classic ‘Arabian Nights’ folk stories.

The Market Wonders video slot is available to play for free, but you can also put your money where your mouth is by having a few spins for real cash prizes. In order to do so, gamblers simply need to choose their desired wager from the following total bet options: 0.20, 0.40, 1.00, 2.00, 5.00, 10.00 and 20.00. Once the reels begin to spin, the prizes will be paid whenever three or more of the same symbols appear on any of the 20 paylines. The most valuable winning combination is a row of five oil lamps since this will multiply the value of the bet on the line by 500x.

In the tale of ‘Aladdin’s Wonderful Lamp’, the poor street urchin manages to find wealth and fortune through rubbing his lamp to reveal a wish-granting genie. Could the lamp in this slot machine be the thing to make your spinning wishes come true? Well, as an expanding wild symbol that substitutes for other icons on the reels, it might just help on your way to some exotic fortunes.

On top of that, players of this video slot have the opportunity to claim some extra prize money with a round of 10 free spins. This feature is activated whenever three or more treasure box scatters appear on the reels, offering a x3 multiplier to all wins that are gathered during the wager-less spins. It has to be said that, like most games from the Betixon slot machine roster, Market Wonders doesn’t go to any great lengths to offer something truly unique in the bonus gameplay department. Even so, the promise of triple value free spins is still an attractive proposition in our books.

It’s safe to say that this slot machine takes some of its inspiration from the story of Aladdin. Most of us are aware of this story from the famous 1992 Disney animation, but the tale goes back much further than that as a popular folk tale from the oriental world (did you know that Aladdin is actually Chinese in some of the earliest written translations of the story?). Just as there have been multiple retellings of the tale in film and literature, there have also been many adaptations of Aladdin in the world of slot machines. Some of the best slots in the category include Aladdin’s Legacy by Amaya, Aladdin’s Loot by Saucify and Aladdin’s Treasure by Pragmatic Play.

The bonus gameplay features of this slot might not offer anything too exotic, but the same can not be said about the theme of Market Wonders. The game takes spinners to a far away land to browse some wonderful trinkets, not to mention some prizes worth up to 500x. On top of that, this Betixon slot introduces a small narrative element based on one of the greatest folk tales ever told, giving the game an extra attractive quality.
