About Book of Merlin

The Book of Merlin slot brings Arthurian magic to the slot reels, as it's based on the famous stories of old. Developed by 1x2 Gaming, they bring us the story of King Arthur and his magical advisor, Merlin, in a game with a strong plot further strengthened by simple yet solid features.

The slot game's background is Merlin's magical library, full of bright animations. There are candles, flying books, and quills writing all by themselves, giving it a magical but cartoony feel. The reels are slightly see-through, so you can see the library to its full effect, giving the slot a real fantastical feel.

Book of Merlin Gameplay

The Book of Merlin slot is played on the standard 3x5 grid and offers ten active paylines, and this 1x2 Gaming slot offers a maximum payout of 5,000x your wager. An immersive slot game suitable for all different types of players, the game offers a wide spectrum of bet values. You can bet as low as 10p per spin up to £25 per spin. The grid in the basic game offers up all different symbols, with the most valuable being Merlin - landing 5 Merlins is what can land you the ultimate win.

The lower paying symbols are represented by the playing cards, from ten all the way through to Slightly more valuable are the potion bottles and amulets. The wand comes in next, followed by the biggest and best is Merlin.

Book of Merlin Bonus Features

Here are the game's main bonus features:

Bonus symbols: One of the best features in this slot is the bonus symbols. The special bonus symbol on offer in this game is the Magic Spellbook, which works as both the scatter symbol and the wild. Used as a wild, it replaces all standard pay symbols to create wins. As a scatter symbol, it can unlock the free spins bonus round.

Free Spins: If you land three or more of the scatter symbols anywhere on the grid, you can trigger the Merlin free spins bonus round - in which you will receive ten free spins. During the bonus feature, Merlin's magic touch on his spellbook reveals a random symbol that will transform into a special expanding symbol.

Book of Merlin Review

1x2 Gaming has really developed a nice and simple slot game here. This makes it easy to learn and play, great for those new to slots. Indeed, this plays very much in the same way as some of the other spellbinding 'Book' slots - including Book of Loki (also by 1x2 Gaming), Book of Shadows, and the classic Book of Dead slot by Play 'N Go. However, it's the free spins round that stands out.

If you enjoy magic and mystery - and are familiar with Arthurian legends, then you will probably appreciate what this game offers. The graphics are very attractive - and the background is, unsurprisingly, quite magical. The soundtrack, reminiscent of the Sorcerer's Apprentice, adds that little bit extra to your whole experience.
