Wizard Games invokes spirits in new spooky slot Madame Voodoo
NeoGames S.A subsidiary Wizard Games has unleashed the power of an ancient craft with its magical new release Madame Voodoo.
The spooky new title is a 5×5 slot that invites players to experience the title character’s invocations, with up to 506,250 winning ways providing the chance of enchanting wins within a feature-packed game that is filled with supernatural entertainment.
The magic begins with Tumbling Tiles, where winnings combinations fall away for new symbols to land and potentially create further wins. The excitement reaches fever pitch when the Voodoo Doll appears, throwing random dolls onto the reels and transforming into the same symbol for extra payouts.
The action doesn’t stop there, because if a doll lands on a magic ball it expands onto adjacent reels, with the added possibility of splitting up six times to create major winning possibilities.
Additionally, landing three Scatter symbols transports players into the Free Spins feature. Should a Voodoo Doll appear during the Free Spins, any newly transformed symbols that do not form any winning combination are transformed back into dolls. The dolls then walk a row up with each spin, until they form a winning combination or exit from the reels.
In certain regions, players can progress straight to the Free Spins with the Buy Bonus option. Madame Voodoo is a medium volatility game, with three different levels of RTP – 88%, 94% and 96%. It is the newest addition to Wizard Games’ growing portfolio, following Awww, So Cute!, Towers of Olympus and Bier Haus Riches in the studio’s rapidly growing games offering.
Wizard Games delivers value-driven iGaming experiences for regulated markets around the world, combining time-tested recipes with fresh, innovative ideas. The studio’s portfolio currently includes over 120 titles certified for more than 20 regulated jurisdictions in Europe, North America and Latin America.
Joey Hurtado, Managing Director at Wizard Games, said: “At Wizard Games, we love to create titles that have an element of the magical within them and Madame Voodoo definitely fits the bill. It’s a slot that has been designed with features guaranteed to get pulses racing, with the walking Voodoo Doll in the Free Spins game being particularly exciting.
“With its attractive design, this is a spooky game released just in time for Halloween that will have widespread appeal across the regulated markets we are active in right across the world.”
