AbraCatDabra

Themes that are totally unique can often be hard to come by in the realm of online slots. However, this release seems to have passed the test. AbraCatDabra takes aspects from popular magic slots, however, mixes them with a feline to offer something fresh to punters. The game itself takes place inside of a laboratory, with a wheel and four different jackpots being shown at the top of the board. 

AbraCatDabra was produced by Gold Coin Studios, while also being powered by Microgaming. Their team has a huge wealth of experience across the board, with over 500 titles being launched across physical and online casinos. Some examples of their past release include Cairo Link and Win, Animals of Africa, and Smooth Sailing. 

First up are the playing card-related symbols, with a club, diamond, heart, and spade all making an appearance in AbraCatDabra. Next is a ring, a crystal ball, a rat, and a cat, which can award up to 10x, 12.5x, 15x, and 25x the stake size, respectively, should five match along a payline. There is also a wild symbol, which can replace any of the previous symbols to form a combination. 

During each spin, a wheel with four different sections will spin. There is a green, red, blue, and golden section, which can trigger their own modifier or bonus mode. However, the outcome of this reel will only be awarded should a fully stacked wild appear across any of the 5 reels. The green section can add a sticky wild to the middle reel, with a 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x multiplier attached. If the red section is triggered, 2, 3, or 4 wild icons will appear on reels 2 and 4. The blue section can cause a respin, with only premium symbols being present.

Should the golden portion of the wheel be triggered, players will award ten free spins. This mode plays out just like the base game, meaning that other modifiers can be awarded. There is also the possibility to retrigger the mode.

During the base game and throughout the free spins mode, star symbols can be collected. When enough have been acquired, a pick ‘em style game will commence. Players start with three lives and have a total of 24 silver stars on the board to pick from. Behind each star can be a fixed value of 0.25x to 10x the bet size, a skull, an additional life, or a key. If a skull is revealed, a life will be lost, and at the end of the mode, all values will be totalled up and awarded to the player.

Finally, if a key is found, players will be taken to the 'Gold Board'. During this mode, there are 12 golden stars, each with a different jackpot behind it. When three icons for the same jackpot are found, this will be awarded to players. There is a mini, minor, major, and mega jackpot, which have fixed values of 20x, 100x, 500x, and 5,000x the stake size, in that order.

Visual appeal and features can be found in abundance in AbraCatDabra. The wheel at the top is another nice addition, with different potential bonuses and modifiers appearing randomly during each spin.
