When it comes to most of the best online pokies games in New Zealand, there are so many different themes that it can be hard to decide where to start. From animals and Ancient Egypt, to underwater life and comic book characters, there is something for almost every type of gamer out there. A particularly popular theme seems to be magic and enchantment, and this is perfectly captured across the reels of NetEnt’s online pokies game that NZ players are going wild for: Golden Grimoire™. Just to be clear, a ‘grimoire’ is the word for a witch or wizard’s secret or otherwise magical writings. In this review, we take a closer look at what players can expect to enjoy when launching this delightful and enchanting online pokies game.
Golden Grimoire™ is a 4x5-reel online pokies game that boasts a decent 40 paylines, and an incredibly generous betting range of between 0.20 and 400 credits, making the game an incredibly appealing one to bettors who enjoy placing wagers far into the triple digits. The reels are set against a mystical looking room, perhaps belonging to the owner of the grimoire after which the game is named. The higher valued symbols are represented by differently coloured jewels inlaid with various creatures, including a spider, a moth, a snake and what looks like tentacles. There are also the icons for a heart, a club, a spade and a diamond, which have been rendered to look like they’ve been made of gold and set alight with different coloured flames. The image of the spell book with a golden question mark is the Mystery Symbol, and will appear on reels 3, 4 and 5 during the base game. When one or more land, they will transform into a random Wild, medium or low value symbol. The golden skull symbol is Wild, and can only appear as a result of a Mystery symbol transformation. If a Mystery symbol changes into a Wild, then all symbols in between it and the symbol in the leftmost position of that row will transform into a Wild. The image of a keyhole emblazoned with the word Scatter is, you guessed it, the Scatter, and it will award you with a Free Spins round if you land at least 3 on reels 1, 3 and 5. During such a round, any Mystery symbols that land will be sticky, meaning they will remain in place while the rest of the reels spin, helping you hit winning combinations.
With its eerie soundtrack and crisp, clear graphics, as well as its exciting in-game features, Golden Grimoire™ is a delight to behold and play. If you enjoy magic-themed online pokies and live in NZ, then you would do well to give this game a try. It’s available to play at many an online casino that supports software from NetEnt, certainly the name behind some of the best online pokies for real money in NZ.
