Slot Review of Balthazar´s Wild Emporium by Core Gaming

Free Spins and Bonuses

If 2 identical potion bottles (pink, blue or yellow) land on reels 1 and 2 the Gamble Bonus Round starts. You will be awarded an amount of free spins which you can collect or gamble. If you decide to gamble all or part of the available free spins you will return to the reels and if a 3rd identical potion bottle lands on reel 3, the gamble screen will appear again, offering a new higher number of free spins. This continues until you have won each gamble round up to reel 5. Once you have collected the free spins or gambled and lost, the round will end and any collected free spins will be played out.

The 3 different potions will enable you to win the following awards:

• Pink Potion - 5 bottles will award you up to 500 Free Spins with Stacked Wilds
• Blue Potion - 5 bottles will award you up to 750 Free Spins with Expanding Wilds
• Yellow Potion - 5 bottles will award you up to 1,000 Free Spins with Colossal Wilds

You can only receive the maximum amount of free spins if you have gambled 100% of the free spins and won additional potion bottles up to the fifth reel.
