iGaming content provider Pragmatic Play unveiled its latest slot title, Power of Merlin Megaways. Potions, staffs, owls, and Merlin adorn the six-reeled slot that utilizes the Megaways mechanic to present constantly changing reel sizes. Players must "cast a spell from Merlin’s spell book" to create combinations of the magical symbols to unlock wins.
After winnings are awarded on a particular spin, those winning symbols are removed from play, causing a cascade of new icons to fall from the top of the game board and potentially award another winning combination. Wilds can also appear which substitute for all base game symbols allowing players to create wins more easily.
A lightning bolt feature can also be triggered, which will transform all instances of one random symbol into a wild. If this causes a tumble and shifts the lightning bolt to a new position the feature is triggered again with all instances of a new icon being changed into a wild.

Four or more scatter symbols are required to unlock entry to the free spins round where the number of starting spins can be gambled to unlock more free spins. Here, the round begins with a 1x multiplier with each successive tumble increasing it by 1x and in turn, creating a crescendo of excitement.
According to the provider, Power of Merlin Megaways will "leave players and operators alike spellbound" and follows recent releases from Pragmatic Play including Hellvis Wild, Spellbinding Mystery, and Wisdom of Athena.
Earlier this week, Pragmatic Play saw three of its product verticals go live with SL7 in Brazil.
