Alchemy Academy Review

šŸ”¬ I was never into science in school, but in my free time, I was seriously into science, and more importantly, the science that the Anarchist Cookbook taught.

When I was 13, my best friend and I started making very rough gunpowder that didnā€™t really want to ignite. šŸ’„

We honed our craft, and eventually, we were making some pretty good stuff. All with ingredients you could buy from the chemist. šŸ§Ŗ

We ended up blowing up one of the toilets at my school, and I nearly got expelled. Totally worth it. šŸš½šŸ’£ Alchemy Academy slot by BGAMING is all about nailing the science behind big wins, and blowing up your bank account. šŸ’°šŸŽ°

Gameplay

This 5x5-reel grid looks magical, and features a hot Wizard Lady standing to the right of the grid. To the left is an Ante BetAn Ante Bet is an option that costs a percentage of your bet but increases your chances of landing triggering symbols that initiate a feature. and Buy Bonus menu. The soundtrack is rather goofy, and I donā€™t think it matches the theme of the game.

The Scatter is a Blue Book. Landing 4 or more in the base game triggers a Free Spins round.
Multiplier symbols are Scrolls, and can appear at any time during the base game and Free Spins.

The Multiplier symbol can have a value ranging from Ɨ2 to Ɨ500 and can appear in both the main game and the Free Spins round.

If more than one Multiplier symbol lands in a spin and thereā€™s a win, their values are added together and applied to your total win at the end of the spin.

The high-paying symbols are Purple Hats, Orange Orbs, Green Potions, and Gem Staffs.

This game features an RTPRTP stands for ā€œReturn to Player.ā€ The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

Maximum Win

This game has a max multiplier of 2,500x. Combine that with a betting range of between $0.20 and $80, and you could take home $200,000.

Conclusion

I recently played Krakenā€™s Hunger slot, another banger by BGaming, and I found many similarities with Alchemy Academy, such as the multiplier symbols, and Buy Bonus options.

It is fair to say that this game is pretty run of the mill. The base game features a multiplier symbol that can boost winnings, but for the most part, you sit around and wait for 4 Scatters to land so that you can get those sweet Free Spins.

At least the multipliers add up in Free Spins, giving you the potential for massive wins.

The Ante bet option allows you to get there sooner, but even that added chance can take a while to pay off.

Iā€™ve seen these mechanics and features in countless other games. Thereā€™s nothing new to see here folks.

Slot Details

Software: BGAMING
Game Type: Video Slots
PaylinesPaylines are preset lines that run across the reels, and when you land matching symbols on them, that will result in a payout. The more paylines, the more ways you can win, but also the higher your bet per spin.: Cluster PaysUnlike traditional paylines, Cluster Pays can award wins when a minimum number of matching symbols land adjacent to each other (vertically or horizontally), forming a cluster.
Volatility RateSlot games can have low, medium, high, or extremely high volatility rates (or a combination thereof).

The less volatile the game, the more often it should pay out, but the lower the amount, the less the payout, as this is in keeping with the risk youā€™re taking. Volatility rate should be considered in conjunction with a gameā€™s RTP.
