The Wizard of Oz

The Wizard of Oz is one of the most popular movies of all time, and it is also now immortalised in slot form, thanks to the folks over at WMS. This comes after the massive success of the machine in land-based casinos, where it has achieved almost legendary status amongst gambling aficionados. It’s a common tactic used by WMS, as they begin to translate many of their more famous slots into the online format.

But is this slot as good as the land-based version? Well, in short, yes it is. Players will love the theme (how could you not love something based on this movie?), and will also really enjoy the range of bonuses on offer. The prizes are the biggest plus-point to this online slot though, and the luckiest of players will walk away with a jackpot worth up to 50,000 coins, which far outshines the jackpots at many other slots at online casinos. Even if you don’t win the jackpot, you should still experience a number of smaller wins on a regular basis, which keeps the fun flowing when you play.

The gameplay at this slot is really simple, especially if you have played online slots before. You’ll be able to choose how many paylines to play, as well as how much to bet, and the whole goal is to get matching symbols lined up on one of the paylines. You’ll then be paid a prize equal to that shown on the paytable. There are 30 paylines in total, so there’s no shortage of winning opportunities, however newer players might want to simplify things by reducing the number down to 5-10 of them.

Perhaps the biggest lure of this slot is the ability to reminisce though, as you think about your childhood days watching this film. You’ll be helped on this journey by characters like the Tin Man, Scarecrow and, of course, Dorothy herself, all of whom appear on the reels. So, why not visit the wonderful Wizard of Oz right now, and see if you can win big?

It should be mentioned that there are also a couple of other Wizard of Oz slots currently available, namely Wizard of Oz Wicked Riches and Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers. These two games are nowhere near as good as this one though.

Bonus Features

There are a number of great features to enjoy at the Wizard of Oz, and they can all lead to some really nice payouts for you. The first of these has to do with the slot’s logo symbols, as these are wild, therefore meaning that they can replace other symbols on the reels and create some really nice wins. These wild symbols don’t just appear when the reels stop spinning though, as Glenda the Good Witch can also appear randomly and sprinkle them on the reels. What’s more, when Glenda does so, these wilds will be expanding ones, and it is possible to get all the reels filled with wild symbols!

There are then three bonus games to mention, and they are all activated by getting the Emerald City symbol on reels one, three and five. When you do you’ll be able to choose which of the three bonus rounds you want to play.

The first of these bonus rounds to mention is the Oz Pick Feature, which is a simple one – but one that can also lead to some nice prizes. At this bonus, you’ll be prompted to pick a symbol, which will then reveal an instant cash prize. This can sometimes be a small amount, but can also sometimes be a massive amount – it really depends on how lucky you get.

Next there’s the free spins, which seem pretty standard at first, but you’ll soon see that they are a little bit different from the free spins found at other slots. You’ll start off with eight of them, but while they are active you’ll notice that there are more wild symbols on the reels, in the form of the winged monkeys.

The final feature to mention is the game’s main one. You’ll find yourself on the Yellow Brick Road when you first activate this bonus, and you’ll need to select from one of thirty different emeralds. Doing so could reveal a cash prize, which is paid instantly before you’re taken back to the base game; a character, which sees you whisked to a corn field, an orchard, a dark forest, or the Wicked Witch’s castle; or an Emerald City logo, which will take you directly to Emerald City itself.

If you picked one of the character symbols, you’ll then need to select the character from a bunch of gold charms, and doing so will see you win a nice cash prize. If you don’t select successfully, your game isn’t over though. Instead, you’ll head back to the Yellow Brick Road, where you’ll select another brick and win a cash prize – with a 2x multiplier added to it.
The biggest money at this bonus round comes when you go to Emerald City though. When you get there, you’ll be awarded money for every character you manage to find.
