The Wish Master Slot Review

The Wish Master is a video slot from NetEnt with 5 reels and 20 paylines. Originally released in 2014, the slot has just received a re-release in August 2019. You can play the game at online casinos such as Guts, Rizk or Mr Green.

Theme and basic information

The Wish Master brings us the genie in the lamp. The slot is surprisingly dark and mysterious though. The genie appears to be no more than a shadow. Still, he grants wishes and if you’re lucky, three at once.

The slot is beautifully drawn, though. It has a slight Disney feel to it without being to cheesy. The graphics are lovely and could be out of many wonderful animated movies. The background music has a somewhat oriental tone, but it is also dark and mysterious, adding to the overall atmosphere.

We get four high-value symbols. A pink cobra with a gem pays out 750 coins for a win of 5 on a payline. The lion amulet with an orange gem pays out 500 coins for such a win. The scorpion with the green gem is worth 400 coins for 5 on a payline and the raven amulet with the blue gem pays out 300 coins.

There are also the playing card symbols from J to A. And we get a fiery wild as well as a scroll scatter.

You can play this game from 0.20 per spin to 100.00 per spin.

Rub the magic lamp for the Wish Master to grant features

The scroll on the reels is the scatter and whenever it lands anywhere, the magic lamp is activated. The genie will land and gives us at least one feature that will then be applied for an average of 10 spins.

• Extra Wild – one of the high-value symbols gets replaced by a wild on every spin
• Wild Reel – the reel on which the scatter landed will turn into a wild reel
• Expanding Wild – Whenever a wild lands on a reel it will expand to cover the entire reel
• Multiplier – A 2x or 3x multiplier is active on each win. Both activated together give you a 6x multiplier
• Random Wild – Two wilds appears randomly anywhere on the reels

Beyond that, regular wilds can also land on the reels. It is possible to have three active features at once, each for 10 spins. Whenever a new feature is activated, it would then be added to the existing feature with 10 more spins added on top. However, those spins are not free spins. They merely indicate that the features are active for this many spins.

Conclusion: A beautiful and utterly playable slot comes back around

The theoretical RTP (Return to Player) of The Wish Master is 96.6%, which is excellent. With a combination of all those features for a potential 30 spins, the wins that accumulate can be quite good. Big wins are possible here and there, though rarely anything that will blow your mind.

The slot can be quite volatile, so you should budget carefully. But if you have a good run, you won’t have to worry too much. The maximum win is a 4,500x your stake, which is excellent but hard to achieve.

Whilst you may have mixed results with this game, we found The Wish Master to be utterly playable and were lucky enough that the features kept coming. Sure, our top win was about 50x our stake, but the game is entertaining and if you get several such wins, you’ll be fine.
