Lady of the Forest is a 5-reel, 3-row video slot with 10 paylines developed by Zeus Play. The game features a fantasy forest theme with magical creatures and symbols. It offers a wild symbol, scatter symbol, free spins with multipliers, and a maximum potential win of 9,000x the bet.
The slot is set in an enchanted forest realm, with a backdrop of long grass and tree branches. A soft magical glow emanates from the right side of the screen, contributing to the mystical ambiance. The main character is the eponymous Lady of the Forest, who appears as the wild symbol. Other characters include a unicorn and an owl.
Core Game Mechanics
Lady of the Forest features a standard 5×3 grid with 10 fixed paylines. Players can adjust their bet size from a minimum of 0.10 to a maximum of 300 per spin. The game uses a standard left-to-right adjacent symbol matching mechanic for wins.
The paytable includes 11 regular symbols: unicorn, owl, amulet, mushrooms, tree, and card values from 9 to Ace. The Lady of the Forest serves as the wild symbol, substituting for all symbols except the scatter. When the wild contributes to a win, it doubles the payout. The crystal ball acts as the scatter symbol.
Wins are awarded for matching 3 or more symbols on a payline, with some high-value symbols paying for 2 of a kind. The highest regular symbol payout is 750x for 5 unicorns or owls. The wild symbol offers the game's top payout of 9,000x for 5 on a payline.
Bonus Features
Free Spins: The main bonus feature in Lady of the Forest is the Free Spins round. This is triggered by landing 3 or more scatter symbols (crystal balls) anywhere on the reels. Players are awarded 15 free spins, regardless of the number of scatters that triggered the feature.
During the free spins, all wins are subject to a 3x multiplier, tripling the value of any winning combinations. The free spins can be retriggered indefinitely by landing 3 or more scatters during the bonus round, awarding an additional 15 spins each time.
Wild Multiplier: The Lady of the Forest wild symbol plays a crucial role in both the base game and free spins. When it substitutes in a winning combination, it doubles the payout for that win. This multiplier effect stacks with the 3x multiplier during free spins, potentially leading to 6x multiplied wins when a wild contributes to a winning combination in the bonus round.
Gamble Feature: After any win in the base game, players have the option to gamble their winnings. This feature presents a face-down card, and players must guess its color (red or black). A correct guess doubles the win, while an incorrect guess forfeits the entire amount. Players can continue gambling their winnings up to a certain limit or until they choose to collect.
