Lady Merlin Lightning Chase is a new video slot that hit all Yggdrasil casinos today. Developed by Boomerang Studios and under license by Reel Play, this title offers 5-reels, a 3-4-3-4-3 row formation, and 432 ways to win. It has a 25,600x max win, a theoretical RTP of 95.00%, and medium-high volatility.

Deep in the thick of the forest, Lady Merlin is mixing up her latest spells and potions from within the confines of castle walls that are heavily guarded by fierce gargoyles. As thunder crashes in the cold night sky, Lady Merlin works tirelessly to come up with the best ingredients that could magically release the top prizes from the reels. Suddenly, fireworks spark as Lady Merlin found the perfect recipe to unlock bonus rounds.

Potions and Electricity are the key ingredients to release major prizes. Activate the Boom+ to combine Wilds and Scatters that release a surge of free spins. Electricity Coils will shock you with the Hold & Win Re-Spin feature. While you could land the Collect lever to give a much-needed charge to your cash balance!

Lady Merlin Lightning Chase becomes the second addition in the Lightning Chase range from Boomerang Studios. It follows Temple Frenzy Lightning Chase, which has fewer ways to win and a smaller max win than this title. If magic is your thing, then Red Tiger’s Beriched and Hunters Moon Gigablox by Bulletproof Gaming are well worth a look.

Free Spins

Hold & Win Re-Spin Bonus Feature

During the base game and free spins round, if 6 or more Lightning Coils land on the same spin they will trigger the Hold and Win Re-Spin bonus feature. You will start the round with 3 Re-Spins, and all of the Lightning Coils which triggered the round will remain in place. The remaining reel positions will now spin. During this round, Lightning Coils, Wilds or Collects can land in the positions:

  • Lightning Coil values can range from 1x to 100x and will stick in position.
  • If a Wild symbol lands, all wins will multiply by the Wild Multiplier value.
  • If a Collect symbol lands, all prizes will be immediately awarded and not held.
  • Re-Spins will reset back to 3 if any Lightning Coil, Collect or Wild symbol lands. The feature round will end when there are no more Re-Spins remaining, at which point, all landed values will be added and awarded.
Boom+ Free Spins Feature

When you land 3 or more scatters during the base game, you’re awarded 10 Free Spins. Whenever a scatter or wild symbol lands, it increases the wild multiplier by 1 and rewards you with an additional free spin. You can retrigger the free spins feature from within while you can also trigger the Hold and Re-Spin Bonus Feature

Rounding Up Lady Merlin Lightning Chase – A Strikingly Good Slot!

There are so many positives about this slot it’s hard to know where to begin. Let’s start with the max win of 25,600x, which is well above average. It certainly helps to get the heart racing, especially once you start triggering the bonus features. Speaking of features, you’re spoiled with two that carry big payout potential. In isolation, the free spins round is nothing special. However, what makes it thrilling is the fact that you can trigger the fantastic Hold & Win feature. Do that, and you will have your best chance at landing the slots top payout!

The graphics are decent with bright colours and a couple of entertaining animations, although the design team didn’t go overboard. Finally, the Boom+ mechanic is not something we see very often, so when we do, it spikes our level of intrigue. It is a worthwhile addition to the game, as it allows Wilds to substitute for every symbol when activated, which is rare in slot gaming. Overall, a very good slot with enjoyable gameplay and big payout potential. We recommend that you take it for a few spins at your favourite Yggdrasil online casinos!
