How To Play The Wizard Of Oz Road To Emerald City Mobile Slot
If you thought this Wizard of Oz slot would have less features because it’s a classic game, then you’d be wrong.
This Wizard of Oz Road to Emerald City mobile slot should be a simple 9 payline, 3 reel, Bars and Sevens machine.
Yet would you be surprised to hear that there’s 7 possible bonus games in this simple little tale?
Not if you’ve played on the Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers slot game of course, but that was a 5 reel video slot. So what exactly have you got here?
Neither one thing or another
In the past we’ve been fans of classic slots that surprise us. The game Sweet 27 has re-spins and multipliers, Ivanhoe slot by Elk has multiple free spin bonus games.
So why should we be so hard on this WMS machine, which has 7 bonus features?
Honestly, It’s because the Wizard of Oz Road to Emerald City slot isn’t much fun without the bonus games.
The base game just feels a little dry. Sure you have the pretty movie theme, and songs that will stay in your head till you’re 99, but it’s not enough to keep you hooked.
The Emerald City slot bonuses come in quick and fast
And because there’s 7 of them, they are not all that impressive, or even that long lasting.
The Dorothy free spin bonus games is the only one that can last up to 20 spins, but is rare, mostly because it’s one of the most profitable.
Thank-fully that doesn’t really matter, as with so many bonus features, this Road to Emerald City Wizard of Oz slot keeps the action flowing.
Most of the wins aren’t particularly impressive. But every once in a while, one of those features surprises you so suddenly, you are jerk away from your technicolor day-dream.
A good, if not brilliant, Wizard of Oz game
You don’t have to be a friend of Dorothy’s to appreciate this addition to the Williams slot machines portfolio.
But you do have to be willing to be go through a lot of mini-games and bonus features to eventually have the one off chance that gives you 30x or 50x your bet.
If that doesn’t happen quickly, or often enough, the mini-games can become distracting, and make you wish for a simpler classic game where the big wins can happen on any simple 3 of a kind symbols.

The Wizard Of Oz Road To Emerald City Bonus Features
Wild: The Emerald City is the wild logo and replaces all other symbols except the emerald and 2x multiplier.
2x Multiplier: There's a 2x multiplier symbol in the base game that livens up the base game when it shows up from time to time.
Bonus Games: Next to the symbols, you'll sometimes see little emerald symbols. Get three in a row, and you'll trigger a random wheel of fortune which will pick from 7 different bonus games:
- Glenda the Good Witch Booster: This one is a bit of a cheat, as you basically get some free cash... and then one of the bonuses below.
- Dorothy Free Spins: Here you get 5 to 20 free spins, and every time an emerald shows up, you collect them. Every 3 will trigger more free spins and one of the other bonus features. Which shows up often. The crown in this Road to Emerald City slot game.
- Cowardly Lion Multipliers: You get 1 free spin, with reel one containing only wilds, with multipliers of 1x to 25x, and all emerald symbols are now wild. It's one spin that could make all the difference.
- Scarecrow Crow Prizes: A simple instant cash bonus as you watch the game remove Crows from the screen to reveal cash prizes and multipliers. Mediocre, but frequent.
- Tin Man Winning Spin: Reel 2 is totally wild. You then spin till you win, which is pretty damn quick. The good news is that every time an emerald symbols shows up, the multiplier increases up to 25x.
- Wicked Witch Free Spins: You get a wild reel on reel 1, and any other wilds that show up will stay put till the end of the bonus rounds. Which isn't massively long as you only get 3 free spins.
- Toto Emerald Trail: Technically you get unlimited free spins, but it's more like about 5 to 10. The main draw here is you collect emerald to get random cash, on top of the free spins, but ultimately you win maybe 10x your bet at best.
