Goldwyn's Fairies Review

The four mischievous and adorable fairies (representing the four seasons; Summer, Winter, Spring, and Autumn) are the high-paying symbols, while the four gemstones are the low-paying symbols. Goldwyn, the Fairy Queen appears on the reels in the form of a Respin Wild symbol, and when she lands on the third reel, the Respins feature is activated. The Goldwyn’s Fairies logo is the Free Spins symbol. Landing 3 of these on reels 1, 3, and 5 will award 10 Free Spins. Just For The Win has given Respins and Free Spins a wild twist in the form of the Returning Wilds feature, which we will discuss in detail shortly. The Wild symbol is the highest paying symbol on the reels, paying 25x your line bet for 5 of a kind.

We’ve played plenty of fairy-themed fantasy slots here at SlotCatalog, but Goldwyn’s Fairies is by far the prettiest. Set in an emerald green forest, the beautifully designed game symbols appear on a golden Art Nouveau inspired reel housing. While the theme may not appeal to all players (we’re looking at you manly men), we have to hand it to the game designers at Just For The Win. The artwork is superb, and the game sounds and animations are also on point.

Of course, pretty graphics are only part of the picture (pardon the pun), so let’s take a closer look at the game features.

Goldwyn's Fairies Slot Features

Goldwyn’s Fairies includes two of the most popular bonus features found in online slots; Respins and Free Spins. Respins are triggered when Goldwyn herself lands on reel 3. Free Spins are triggered when 3 Free Spins symbols land on reels 1, 3, and 5, awarding the player 10 Free Spins.

What sets this game apart however is the Returning Wild feature (which is active in both the Respins and Free Spins bonus rounds).

If a Wild Symbol lands on the reels during Respins or Free Spins, the position is marked with a magical silver & blue ring. On the FINAL Respin or Free Spin, all marked positions turn Wild. As we know, Wild symbols substitute for all regular paying symbols, which means players could be in line for some epic wins on that final spin.

The paytable (somewhat confusingly) tells us that there are 3 different wilds in the game. Don’t be thrown by this – they are all Wild symbols and they all serve the same purpose.

A few extra things to consider regarding the bonus features:

• Goldwyn symbols landing on the reels during Respins will award additional Respins. Respins continue until no more Goldwyn symbols appear on the reels.
• If a Wild symbol lands on a position that is already marked, another position will be randomly chosen.
• It is not possible to trigger Respins within Free Spins mode.
• Free Spins cannot be retriggered.

The Goldwyn’s Fairies 200 Spins Experience

The base game experience was fairly typical for a medium volatility game. The game felt balanced with a fair number of low-end wins, but nothing to get excited about. The first feature we triggered was Respins, with two Returning Wilds held in position on the triggering spin. Goldwyn appeared another four times, awarding 4 extra respins and 4 additional Returning Wilds.

Unfortunately, the Wilds were positioned on reels 3, 4, and 5, with no winning symbols on reels 1 and 2 meaning we didn’t win a cent on the final Respin. We did however land a high symbol 5 of-a-kind win as the feature played out, paying out 12.5x our bet.

A few spins later, Goldwyn landed on reel 3 again, triggering the Respin bonus for a second time. This time the fairies were on our side, with 6 Returning Wilds rewarding us with a Big Win of 34x total bet!

Unfortunately, we didn’t get to trigger the Free Spins Bonus which is really disappointing. Remember slot games are games of chance, so everyone will have a different gaming experience. We were really impressed with the quality of the artwork, and the gameplay felt polished and refined.

Review Summary

While the whimsical theme may not appeal to all players, Goldwyn’s Fairies is a fantastic slot with a unique and innovative twist on Respins and Free Spins. The Returning Wilds feature can add up to 15 wild positions on the final Respin or Free Spin, offering players a decent win potential of up to 633x their bet.

There is a sense of excitement knowing that one of two bonus features could be triggered at any time. In our experience, we managed to trigger the Respins feature with relative ease by simply landing the Goldwyn symbol on reel 3. We’d recommend giving Goldwyn’s Fairies a spin on your PC or mobile device, and let these cute little imps show you a wild time!

Pros

• Respins (triggered with just one symbol on reel 3)
• 10 Free Spins
• Returning Wilds in Respins and Free Spins

Cons

• Meager symbol payouts for a game with no multipliers
• Players demanding higher volatility and bigger jackpots may want to look elsewhere
