When this Well of Wonder slot game by Thunderkick loaded up we got a little excited.
You see this magical well sitting in the middle of the screen in what can only be a beautiful enchanted forest.
Why enchanted? Because as if by magic, 7 symbols float out of the well and land in front of your screen; immediately reminded us of one of our favourite games from this game provider; the Fruit Warp slot.
Then you notice those big multiplier numbers at the bottom of the screen, and you get a real tingle of hope for the big wins within.
How quickly the excitement dies down
The problem isn’t the theme, or even the execution; it’s the wins.
Basically, all the symbols pay like scatter; you only need to have 3 or more on screen and you get a win.
Those symbols then disappear, are replaced by more symbols, and the multiplier increases. It’s like the cascading wins in Esqueleto Explosivo slot, but way easier to trigger.
Except the wins are minimal in this Well of Wonders online game, unless you manage to get all to the way to that 32 multiplier; and even then it’s no guarantee.
The Well of Wonders slot has got a little magic
In the form of the wild symbols and the fairy magic re-spins.
That’s right; we are excited about the wild symbol in this Well of Wonders game. Mostly because they are pretty rare creatures, but when they do show, tends to help clear the board and get you up the multiplier trail a little faster.
As for the Fairy re-spin, she only comes along when you don’t get a win, taking away symbols to help you, once again, stay on that multiplier trail. But even she’s not always enough to bring real thrills.
All in all, a pretty little slot game by Thunderkick, but if it’s unusual cascading reels that you want, then we’d still rather play on Esqueleto, or even the Prissy Princess slot by Play’n GO.
