Australian Based NextGen Launches Merlin’s Magic Respins

Added: June 10, 2014

NextGen is an Australian based developer of online slot games. One that has developed reputation for coming up with video slot games that are a little different. In 2012, NextGen launched what became a very popular online slot game named Merlin’s Millions. Indeed, this is probably the most popular NextGen developed video slot of all time. To cash in on the success of Merlin’s Millions, NextGen has just launched a sequel, named Merlin’s Magic Respins.

Merlin’s Magic Respins comes cram packed with great gameplay features, and the graphics and sound are of the caliber we have come to expect from NextGen. The Merlin’s Magic Respins symbol acts as a wild symbol, and is also used to trigger a fixed number of 7 free spins, and during these free spins, a random reel is picked and turned completely wild.

Whilst these free spins are active, a boiling cauldron symbol becomes available, and these add to the wilds. If the player happened to activate the SuperBet option as well, which adds to the number of wilds, then some massive wins could be possible.

David Johnson, who is the Commercial Director for NextGen, has spoken out on the launch of the new Merlin’s Magic Respins video slot game, by saying that, "Merlin's Magic Respins posed a unique challenge to the company's design team. The team aimed to make a sequel to NextGen's best performing slot game that has something new and improved to offer as gameplay, even while using the character of the original Merlin's Millions slot game.”

NextGen is part of the larger NYX Gaming Group, and it is believed that the new Merlin’s Magic Respins online slot game will be offered to premier customers of NXY Gaming Group first, and then rolled out to smaller online casino sites shortly after. So this means that if you play at one of the larger online casino sites that use the NextGen video slot platform, you could well be playing Merlin’s Magic Respins very soon. If you play at a smaller online casino you may have to wait a few weeks.

Overall, Merlin’s Magic Respins is a solid new online slot release from NextGen. We think it will do well, especially as it builds upon what has already proven to be a very successful online slot game in the last year. We recommend our readers take Merlin’s Magic Respins for a spin when they get a chance.
