Druid’s Magic (NetEnt) – Review & Demo Play

The Druid’s Magic Slot Game

I loaded up Druid’s Magic and was dropped into a quiet forest, with reels set like a cabin doorway under the canopy. The interface is straightforward and suits any device. It runs on 5 reels with 3 rows and 20 fixed paylines, with bets from €0.10 to €10. Base play feels measured, then the modifiers kick in and spins swing in intensity. I found the rhythm easy to follow, with features stepping in often enough to keep things moving.

Symbols and Payouts in Druid’s Magic

Wins land for 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels from the left. Low wins come from rune stones in purple, blue, turquoise, and yellow, topping out at 1.6x, 2x, 2.4x, and 3.2x the bet for five-of-a-kind. High wins are the raven, owl, wolf, and bear, paying up to 4x, 6x, 8x, and 10x. Payouts are tied to the total stake, so I always size bets with that in mind.

There are five Wilds: Expanding (pink), Stacked (green), Random (red), Linked (light blue), and Colossal (yellow). Wilds substitute for regular symbols and can carry extra behaviour depending on type. The standard Wild line can go up to 20x for five. The Druid Scatter lands only on reels 1 and 5 as tall 1x2 symbols. Land both fully and you’re into the bonus, which is where the game shows its hand.

Druid’s Magic Slot Bonus Features

Wild Symbols: only one Wild type is active per base spin, but you can land more than one of that same type. Stacked Wilds can drop in stacks of three, though singles and doubles appear too. Expanding Wilds fill the reel they land on. Random Wilds add 1 to 9 extra Wilds anywhere. Linked Wilds on the same row turn all symbols between into Wilds. Colossal Wilds land as 2x2 blocks, either partial or full.

Druid’s Magic Free Spins: two full Scatters on reels 1 and 5 award 10 spins with one random Wild modifier guaranteed on each spin. Land the two tall Scatters again during the bonus for +5 spins and another modifier added for every remaining spin. You can activate all Wild features in one session; once all are active, Scatters stop appearing. If multiple modifiers trigger, Stacked resolves first, then Colossal, then the rest together.

Feature Buy: if you want straight into the action, the buy costs 150x your stake and starts the free spins. Using the buy nudged my RTP readout to 96.14% in-line with the spec, and I preferred it when hunting for layered modifiers. It doesn’t alter symbol values or mechanics; it just gets you into the bonus without waiting for the Scatters.

How to Win at Druid’s Magic

Set a bet between €0.10 and €10, then spin across 20 static lines. Wins pay left to right for 3+ adjacent matches. Autoplay can run up to 100 spins; I toggle Quickspin if I’m testing modifier frequency. The menu gives you Pays, How to Play, History, and speed controls. I always check the paytable first, then watch which Wild type is active, as reading the board around Stacked, Linked, or Colossal placements makes the difference on marginal spins.

Druid’s Magic Slot RTP & Volatility

The stated Druid’s Magic RTP is 96.10%, rising to 96.14% with Feature Buy. Operator settings can vary, with other RTP models at 94.05% and 88.15%. Hit frequency is listed at 14.38%. Volatility hasn’t been officially published in one source I checked; in practice I felt stretches between larger hits, which matched the feature-led profile. The max win caps at 2,983x, so I temper expectations and look to stack Wild modifiers during the bonus for my better shots.

The Final Thoughts on Druid’s Magic

I rate Druid’s Magic as a Wild-first slot where the modifiers do most of the work. Base play is modest, but the moment you bring in Expanding or Linked with a Colossal in view, reels can light up. Free spins get the best out of it, especially once you’ve added a second or third modifier to every spin. The order of execution matters, and I’ve had tidy boards when Stacked and Colossal line up cleanly.

Pros for me: low entry bet, clear UI, and five Wild types that carry through into the bonus. On the flip side, the 2,983x ceiling feels on the low side for the segment, and the feature set leans almost entirely on Wild behaviour. If you like measured base spins with bursts of modifier chaos in the bonus, this hits that brief nicely.
