A new online slot game from OpenBet has just been released at leading online casinos. The best place to play this game is at InterCasino. InterCasino is one of the oldest online casinos in the industry and is licensed and regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority. The new slot game is titled Balthazar’s Wild Emporium.

Balthazar is an alchemist and sells potions in his emporium. He stands outside the reels on one side and a cauldron of potion boils on the other side. The slot game is in the 5x3 format with 20 fixed paylines. The Wild logo is the wild symbol. It does not substitute for the special potion symbols. The logo awards the highest line payouts. The other high paying symbols are gold coin, Balthazar and spell book. The low paying symbols are ornately designed playing card icons.

Balthazar’s Wild Emporium has an innovative and interactive free spins feature. It is triggered by landing potion vial symbols of the same colour. You will be awarded 5x the total bet and the free spins feature corresponding to that potion. The pink potion awards up to 500 free spins with stacked wilds. The blue potion awards up to 750 free spins with expanding wilds. The orange potion awards up to 1000 free spins with colossal wilds, which are blocks of 2x2 symbols. Do not get carried away by these numbers because you will be started with much fewer free spins.

If you have chosen to gamble any of the free spins you will be returned to the reels. If you land a third potion symbol of the same colour then the gamble option is offered again but with a higher number of free spins. This can continue till you reach the fifth reel. Any time you choose collect or lose the gamble option you will play the collected number of free spins. To win the maximum number of free spins you have to gamble all the free spins each time till you succeed on the fifth reel.
