Aspire Global’s Wizard Games is inviting players on an epic adventure to an enchanted forest in their latest title Dogwood Magic.

The game’s leading characters, Ourik and Shizri, are searching for their lost brother Gal in this latest hit, with Magic Flowers helping on the journey by lighting up the path and generously rewarding players.

The 5×4 title incorporates Wizard Games’ new and exclusive mechanic LayerWays, which sees symbols splitting up to six times to create a maximum 40,000 ways to win when the Magic Flower lands in the game’s locked positions on the bottom reel.

The game’s Tumbling Tiles feature sees winning symbols removed and new ones tumbling down to possibly form even more winning combinations, with a win multiplier increasing with every win, up to an impressive 20x on a single spin.

Up to 20 free spins can be awarded when four, five or six scatter symbols land anywhere on the reels. If a +2 or +3 unlocked symbol land in the last row during the free spins, players score an extra two or three spins.

As Buy Bonus is available in some jurisdictions, enabling players a shortcut into the free spins round.

The game is the latest addition in Wizard Games’ growing and diverse portfolio which now features over 120 entertaining titles.

Joey Hurtado, Managing Director of Games at Wizard Games, said: “Dogwood Magic is a title we are extremely pleased with as it takes players into an immersive fantasy world with an attractive design and a great music score and sound that really creates a fantastic ambience.

“The game is a further leap forward for us at Wizard Games, continuing our ethos of consistent and continual improvement. We’re all really excited to see how our partners and their players respond to our new LayerWays mechanic, adding an extra level of fun and engagement to the game.”
