Welcome to a magical kingdom where one wizard has full control of your fate. Will you help him defeat the dragon and win the riches within The Wiz mobile slot?
Elk Studios is the king of 178 ways to win slot machines. They are not the only ones to have them, but they are the most prolific, with games like the Hidden slot and the Wild Seas slot machine on the top of the playlist.
They’ve added the Wiz slot to the portfolio, giving you 5 reels and 4 rows full of mystical magical symbols, from moons, stars and treasure chests, to elixirs and mysterious potions.
It’s such a simple concept, but one we don’t see as often as we use to. Simply give us a multiplier on the wild, and it adds a little zing to any slot.
In comes the dragon wild in this Wiz slot machine which adds a random multiplier of between 2x and 5x to any wins it’s involved in.
It makes the base game a little more fun and a little richer. But during the free spins, this dragon becomes explosive.
Two wizards scatter symbols is all it takes to trigger one re-spin of the reels.
The 5 reels are magical as all low paying symbols are removed for the board, and you get a spin rich of high paying symbols and wilds.
Which is nice, but it’s only one spin. Three scatters is what you really want to catch, but seldom do, as you trigger The Wiz Bonus Games, where the same mechanics happen, but MORE.
Granted, mostly you only start with 5 spins, but just one scatter adds an extra spin, so you usually play about 10. Add the wilds now walk from right to left, and this bonus feature is truly magical.
If you love this casino game, you’ll also love the Birthday slot also by Elk.

Wild: The Wild is the dragon and comes with a random multiplier of between 2x to 5x. He is used to replace any other symbol and will apply the multiplier to any win he's part of.
The Wiz Respin: Two Scatter wizard symbol will give you one re-spin of the reels with all low paying symbols turned into high paying ones.
The Wiz Free Spins: 3, 4 or 5 scatter wizards symbols will award you with 5, 7 or 10 free spins.
During the free spins, you have no low paying symbols and the wilds will walk from left to the right of the reels. It will also take the multiplier with them.
A single Wizard awards an additional single free spin while 2 wizard symbols during the bonus game gives you an additional 2 free spins.
You either love or hate 178 ways to win games - we tend to like them, even the worst of the lot (the Platooners game) still got 3 stars.
We think The Wiz has great potential, especially with the wild symbols which come with up to 5x multipliers and walks across the screen during the free spins.
It's not a perfect real money slot. The bonus games are hard to catch, and the wins from the bonus games are not always mind-blowing, but it's still fun to watch.
All in all, a solid addition to the list of Elk slots for those looking for some high win volatile action.
