Mystic Orbs Review

We haven’t seen all that many oriental inspired releases from ELK until now, but they have a few under their belt. Kaiju is perhaps the most memorable one, although it never climbed very high on the charts. Mystic Orbs doesn’t really look like a full-blown asian-themed release in our view, so it’s suitable also for players who don’t enjoy that sometimes overly ornamented style. The symbols are neatly carved mythological animals, emperors and such, and it’s all set against a simple stonewall backdrop.

The backstory is that the dragon, Ying Longs, guards the entrance to emperor Yu the Great’s treasure chamber, and you’ll make use of all features and modifiers at your disposal to get your hands on the riches. Modifier symbols appear on the top Feature Reel on each spin, but you need special orb symbols to trigger the features. The bonus round awards more of the same, with a non-resetting multiplier and a 10,000x potential.

Mystic Orbs Slot Features

You need 5 to 18+ matching symbols in a cluster anywhere on the 5x5 grid to win, and 18+ premiums pay between 300 and 2,000 x your stake. The Wild symbol steps in for all pay symbols to help form winning clusters, and a cluster of only wilds pay the same as the top-tier symbol.

Winning symbols are removed via the Cascading mechanic, making room for new and/or existing symbols to drop down to fill the gaps. This goes on as long as you keep winning.

In addition to regular wilds, you can also land the Orb Wild symbol. If the Orb symbol does not take part in a win, it explodes to remove adjacent symbols. Orbs are also needed to activate the feature symbols that appear on the top Feature Row per spin. Regular orbs activate the feature symbol on the same reel, while Charged Orbs activate all present feature symbols.

Here’s an overview:

  • Bonus - awards the bonus round.
  • Extra Life - adds an extra symbol drop at the end of a cascading sequence.
  • Orb Payout - boosts your winnings with a stake multiplier.
  • Multiplier - is added to the total win multiplier, and it also affects Orb Payouts.
  • Upgrade - upgrades all instances of a given symbol type to a higher value symbol, or wilds, for up to 3 cascades.
  • Orb Siege - turns up to 4 symbols surrounding the Orb into a matching symbol or wilds.

You trigger the Bonus Round either via the Feature Reel or by landing and collecting 5 orbs in a single cascading sequence. This gives you 5 free spins, and you also get +5 extra spins for every 5 orbs you collect during the feature with no upper limit. Also, the multiplier never resets during the bonus round, and there is no upper limit to the multiplier either.

The X-iter Feature Buy menu is available in some jurisdictions (the RTP is not affected by the way), but not for UK players for sure. Here’s what eligible players can get from it:

  • Feature - pay 5x your stake for 1 guaranteed orb that’s also guaranteed to trigger a feature.
  • Persistent Multiplier - pay 25x your stake for 3 spins where the multiplier does not reset.
  • Charged Orbs - pay 50x your stake for a spin with a charged orb that triggers all present features on the feature reel.
  • Bonus - pay 100x your stake for a guaranteed bonus round trigger.
  • Super Bonus - pay 500x your stake for a bonus round with charged orbs.

The 200 Spins Mystic Orbs Slot Experience

You get a taste of the base game, before we purchase the Super Bonus around 0:55 into the 4:48-minute highlights video. You get to see plenty of features being triggered from the feature reel, and simply hit the play button below if you’re curious as to how it all played out.

Review Summary

It will most likely take you a while to get into the swing of things when you first try Mystic Orbs, and the visual presentation is a bit simpler than you might be used to from ELK. Still, the neatly carved marble symbols are well-made, and the asian theme is low-key enough for westerners to enjoy as well. As usual with this developer, the features can conspire to produce solid results on a good day, and it gets more fun once you get a handle on what’s going on.

The multiplier is key to larger payouts, which is hardly a surprise, but the high symbol values can do damage on their own as well. Too bad the Super Bonus cannot be triggered organically, as this is where the game truly fires on all cylinders.

The regular bonus round is solid as well though, awarding up to 10,000x your stake at best. The 95 % RTP is something we’re used to from ELK by now, but we also know it might be a deal-breaker for some players.

Pros

  • Top Bonus Reel w/ 5 unique modifiers
  • Charged orbs trigger all present modifiers
  • FS w/ persistent non-resetting win multiplier
  • X-iter Bonus Buy menu (not for UK players)
  • Win up to 10,000x your stake

Cons

  • 95 % RTP is well below average
