About Wishing Well
Wishing Well is crafted by Real Time Gaming and is a slot with five reels and ten paylines. It has a dark, sorcery theme and would be a good match for people who delight in immersing themselves in the fabulous world of magic and the dark arts. The action centres around a wizard who is apparently mixing some powerful concoction with the aid of the icons that appear on the reels. These icons include vials of differently coloured liquids and toadstool mushrooms. The graphical effects are overall entirely in keeping with the theme and are dark, purplish and sinister.
Bets can be made on any or all of the paylines, with the wagering options per line being: 0.01, 0.02. 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50 and 1.00 credits. With these in place, both risk-averse and risk-seeking players are easily accommodated. And should the maximum line wager of a single credit be made, a jackpot of 5,000 coins is up for grabs.
Bonus Feature
Acting as the wild is the Wishing Well symbol. This is represented by a deep hole in the ground which is filled with some presumably mysterious blue liquid. Like other wilds, this symbol will act to replace all other symbols to form winning combos. This icon also does double duty as the scatter, and is capable of granting 2x, 20x and 200x of the line bet when three, four and five of them respectively pop up at any place on the reels.
Special Feature
When three or more of the wild scatter icons are gained, the player will be gifted ten free spins. When these spins are underway, any random symbol can transform into a unique symbol. It will thus become a wild icon and expand cover all positions on the reels.
Wishing Well additionally supports the Gamble feature. This is a means of either doubling or quadrupling your most recent winnings by correctly guessing the colour or suit of a drawn deck of cards. Wins and losses are 50/50 and are random.
Wishing Well offers reasonably standard fare and is neither innovative nor exceptional. Everything is as it should be, but nothing much stands out from the competition. Overall, as long as you don’t expect to be blown off your feet it will do and is bound to provide some diverting entertainment.
