Lady Merlin MultiMax Review

Lady Merlin makes a comeback in this Boomerang Studios release, and her magic powers are more vivid than ever. Lady Merlin MultiMax is a follow-up to Lady Merlin Lightning Chase, in case you wondered, and the top-tier Lightning Coil cash prize has increased to 500x your stake. You get Cascading Wins all the way, and 5 different Strike Zone modifiers will help you out on a regular basis.

The sorceress herself sits above the reels, and you will get plenty of entertaining animations as she performs her different magic tricks. The MultiMax multiplier increases per wild symbol in view, and you can switch on the Wild+ Ante Bet feature to get even more wilds. The multiplier only keeps building in the bonus round, and you can win up to a solid 20,000x your stake.

Lady Merlin MultiMax Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 1.25 to 2 x your stake, and the Lady Merlin Wild can appear on any reel to substitute for pay symbols and thus help complete or improve wins. Winning symbols are removed via the Cascading Wins mechanic, and this makes room for new and/or existing symbols to drop down. This process repeats as long as you keep winning, giving you indefinite extra spins per round.

The MultiMax Multiplier increases by +1 per Wild symbol that appears, and the current multiplier will boost all wins.

You can land Lightning Coil cash symbols, and they come with prizes between 1x and 500x your stake. You need the Collect symbol in view to collect the current prizes, however, and it can only land on reels 2, 3, and 4.

There is a Strike Zone above reel 1, and special symbols can appear there at any given time in the base game. These special symbols trigger one of the following modifiers:

• Multiplier Increase - increases the MultiMax Multiplier by +1, +2, +3, +4, or +5.
• Collect Symbol - will collect any Lightning Coil cash prize symbols in view.
• Scatter Symbol - can help trigger the bonus round.
• MultiMax Freeze - increases the MultiMax Multiplier by +1, and makes it persistent for one extra spin.
• Second Chance - removes low-value symbols from a non-winning spin, which triggers a cascade.

You need 3 scatters on reels 1, 3, and 5 to trigger the Bonus Round, and this gives you 5 free spins.

The 200 Spins Lady Merlin MultiMax Slot Experience

You get to see the Strike Zone feature in action several times in the base game part of our highlights video, and the bonus round triggers at 0:50 into the 7:31-minute video. We managed to retrigger the feature almost immediately, so it goes on for quite a while. You can check it all out for yourself by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

We’ve dealt with Lady Merlin before, in Boomerang’s Lady Merlin Lightning Chase, and Lady Merlin MultiMax is a solid follow-up in most regards. The top-tier RTP is still a bit below average though, but this is not really a dealbreaker in our view. You get plenty of base game action via the Strike Zone, and it’s fun to see Lady Merlin perform her magic tricks as each feature triggers. Visually, we like this follow-up better than the original.

We also like that the Lightning Coil cash prizes are topping out at 500x your stake in this game, as opposed to 100x in the predecessor.
