Fairy Ring Slot

Discover a world of natural beauty and enchanting magic with Fairy Ring, a slot machine by Microgaming that offers 3 reels and 3 paylines for some captivating yet straightforward spinning action. The novelty theme may be somewhat generic, but it has a universal reach that will appeal to the inner child of every spinner with its nostalgic cartoon style.

Aside from that, the game will appeal to the inner risk-taker of every punter with its 5,000x line bet multiplier jackpot. Unfortunately, the slot machine doesn’t offer anything particularly mind-blowing on the bonus gameplay front, although it does give players a helping hand with a wild symbol.

Fairytale spins

Fairies have played an integral part in the folklore of western civilisation for as long as time itself. Coming in all shapes and sizes, fairies are often depicted as small human like creatures who have the magic abilities and the capacity of flight thanks to their delicately beautiful wings. Even though fairies in popular culture tend to represent beauty, goodwill and benevolent magic, many folklores have described fairies as being demoted angels who weren’t pure enough for heaven but weren’t inherently evil enough for hell. As such, fairies can also be associated with more macabre aspects of life.

One thing that we can be sure of is that the fairy of this Microgaming slot machine is definitely one of the good ones. Or so we would assume from the fact that she is depicted in a shroud of bright, sparkling light! And besides, this fairy symbol is the game’s most valuable symbol, trumping many of the other icons when it comes to prize paying value. Those other symbols include a few other staple props from the fairy tale genre with toadstool mushrooms and beautiful butterflies, both of which spin alongside a series of traditional BAR icons from the arcade slot machine archives.

Natural beauty

As far as the game’s visual aspect is concerned, players can expect the expected from a game of this genre. That means that there is plenty of greenery with a game screen that is completely filled with leaves, as well as the odd flower to add some extra colour. Having said that, the game isn’t the most innovative when it comes to the quality of the graphics, all of which are shown as 2D cartoons. Nonetheless, the 3-reel slot machine does have a certain nostalgic, child-like charm about it.

Magical wins

Playing this slot machine couldn’t be any more straightforward. All players need to do is decide how much they wish to place as a bet with a relatively limited range of wagering options from 0.25 to 5.00 credits. Players can boost their overall stakes however by opting to play with more than 1 coin, up to a maximum of 3 coins. What’s more, playing with 1, 2, or 3 coins will actually activate 1, 2, or 3 paylines in the slot machine respectively. So, the more you place as a wager, the better chance you have of spinning a winner.

Players who play with all 3 coins in Fairy Ring will also be able to benefit from a higher potential jackpot in relation to the total stake. That is because the line bet multiplier for the slot’s most valuable icon – the sparkling fairy symbol – will increase depending on how many coins are wagered. If 1 coin is placed as a stake, the line bet multiplier will be 1,500x, if 2 coins are laid down, then the line bet multiplier will be 3,000x, and if 3 coins are staked, the line bet prize will be worth 5,000x.

All of the other symbols retain the same line bet multiplier values throughout the game, no matter how many coins are wagered. You can see all of those potential prizes in the paytable below:

Wild fairy action

Not only is the fairy of this game the most lucrative in terms of prize paying value, but it is also fairly handy for the fact that it acts as a wild icon to help spinners complete winning sequences. The fairy icon will work her magic by substituting for every other symbol on the screen.

Retro spins with a charming touch

Fairy Ring is one of many Microgaming slot machines which offer some simple 3-reel spins within a themed environment. Admittedly, the theme of this slot machine has been done time and time again, meaning that spinners won’t necessarily come across anything new, or particularly interesting for that matter. However, if you are a fan of retro gameplay and want to try something with a little bit of added magic, then you won’t go wrong with this title.
