Play Convertus Aurum for Free

Dimmed lights, smouldering cauldrons, potion bottles and ancient books will welcome players to the mysterious world of the alchemist in Convertus Aurum. Here, he is seen working on his powerful potion to create big base game and bonus round wins. Although Reel Time Gaming adopted the known simple design from Merkur for the game window, it still impresses with crisp graphics and flawless animations. The well-known reel sounds from Merkur are also incorporated into the game.

The usual card suit from 10s to As provides the low-value symbols of Convertus Aurum. A pair of gold bars is the special medium-paying symbol that will play a significant role in the bonus round. It is also the only symbol that appears stacked on the reels at all times. The premium symbols are a large glass cauldron, a sandglass on pages with the alchemist’s notes, a medieval scale and an owl. The wild symbol is the hooded alchemist himself. Smouldering potion cauldrons represent the scatters, appearing on all reels – with a minimum of three required to trigger the free spins bonus feature.

The alchemist will perform his magic on five reels, three rows and 10 fixed paylines. Players can choose bet sizes ranging from as little as 0.10 coins to an extreme 500 coins. Wins for a single five of a kind start at 10x the bet and go up to a staggering 500x the stake.

The RTP of this medium-variance video slot is set at 95.96%. The HTML5 format will allow you to play the game on desktop, mobile and tablet across all OS platforms. Autoplay enables up to 100 consecutive spins with a range of options as to when the run should stop.

Get three to five smouldering potion cauldrons in one spin to activate 10 to 30 free spins, which can be retriggered indefinitely. The special role of the gold bar symbols will now come into play. When the alchemist lands anywhere on the reels in a free spin, he will apply his magic potion to turn any appearances of 10s through to As into gold bars. However, any line wins from the spin will be awarded first. The transformed symbols will provide more potential to hit a full screen of gold bars that will award a mega win of 150x your bet for each occurrence.

Witchcraft, potions, magic and mystical themes are widespread in both online and offline slots. Virtually every major provider will have at least one game in its portfolio. For more sorcery and mysterious reels, try Witchcraft Academy from NetEnt to discover hidden treasures worth up to 800x your stake. Witch Pickings from NextGen Gaming features three witches who will offer their potions with modifiers for the bonus round. For special magic moments, we recommend Magic Mirror Deluxe from Merkur. Here symbols magically expand in the bonus round to award wins exceeding 5,000x your bet.

Latin for "convert to gold", the new game from Reel Time Gaming will soon make its way to online casino sites. But are the alchemist’s potions powerful enough to have us all excited? I would opt for semi-excited. He proves to be indeed an expert in potions and sorcery on Convertus Aurum. His mystical formula will help vastly in the bonus round to produce those desired mega wins.

True to the Merkur style, the pays for a single-line win are very high, with 500x your bet for five-of-a-kind owl symbols. However, I do miss the sky-high win potential Merkur slots usually bring to the reels. Convertus Aurum is clearly more directed at recreational players for whom wins of between 100x and 500x their bet are more than sufficient.
