Arctic Magic takes you into the magical world of sub zero temperatures. The background gives you an insight into what the Arctic might feel like. The symbols that are mainly the Royals on the reels appear to be slightly icy, a nice touch. There are also animals that we connect to the Arctic, hearty beasts like the polar bear or the Arctic Fox that can handle the harsh weather there. There seems to be some reference to the Northern Lights as well. You’ll see this when you get a win.

There are plenty of features that you’re familiar with in Arctic Magic with a chance to win up to $150,000 in a single spin. The game itself offers a nice peaceful back drop to pass the time while playing your luck.
The symbols in Arctic Magic all honor the Arctic. This includes the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) and some of the wildlife. The Northern Lights light up across the screen when you get winning combos. It’s a nice touch and certainly adds magic to the game. There is also a snowflake that appears to be glowing. There is an Arctic bear along with a rabbit, wolf, and fox. You will also see a reindeer. To support these higher value symbols are some Royals.

There is also the possibility of getting a win of x3,333 your stake when you’re in the free spin feature. You can win a top prize of $50,000 in the base game. During free spins, you can win up to as much as $150,000. Do be wary that Arctic Magic is high volatility but is slightly evened out by the decent RTP it comes with.
- The Star
The beautiful star that shines to brightly is your wild. It has on it the mountain and logo of the game. What it does is subs out other symbols. This can bring you in different combinations that weren’t previously available to you. The Wild will also give you wins of 2 times when it replaces a standard symbol.

The star is responsible for any of the large prizes you can expect to win. It can bring you in some big cash when five stars show up on a line.
- Snowflake
There is also a snowflake symbol in Arctic Magic. It acts as your scatter. If you get three or more on the reels, you will gain passage into the free spins. You’ll have a total of 15 spins plus you have the opportunity to win x500 your stake for the round. Wins are going to be 3 times what you’re betting during the free spin mode. There is the opportunity to get a retrigger too. This will happen if you get another 3 snowflakes during the feature.
The graphics are okay and the symbols are true to everything Arctic. There are some nice wins the free spins is a favorable feature that is generous.
Arctic Magic is mediocre in every aspect. While the graphics and features are all decent, they are not great. Nothing is really screaming out that you MUST play the game, especially because it’s high volatility.
