What Are Pixies?

The heart of the legend of the pixie can be found in the Devon and Cornwall regions of England. Pixies are known for their short stature, their mischievous behavior and child-like looks. The creatures are usually compared to fairies or sprites. To this day, Devon celebrates Pixie Day, where they reenact the banishment of the pixies for the town and then have a huge celebration that includes a fireworks display.

Speculation about what pixies actually are has been argued for centuries. Some people believe that they are the souls of children who were never baptized. Some say that they were the last remaining people of the Pict tribe that inhabited Scotland until around 1000 A. D. Still others relate pixies to the Puck, a mythical creature that made many literary appearances, including in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

How to Play Pixies of the Forest

Pixies of the Forest has a 3 for 1 betting scenario. What this means is that for every coin you bet, you activate 3 pay lines. Since the game is a 99 pay line game, it only cost 33 coins as a minimum bet.

You have the opportunity to multiply this 33 coin bet by 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20 or 30 times, allowing for a maximum bet of 990 coins. Each time you increase the bet, the payout will increase by the same multiple.

The game allows for further wins in the same spin with the Tumbling Reels feature. This feature is activated any time there is a winning pay line.

When you hit a winning pay line combination, the winning symbols disappear and the symbols above them drop into spots of the winning pay line forming a new combination of symbols. The new symbols are then evaluated by the game to see if there is a new winning pay line. This will keep occurring until no more winning pay lines are found.

Pixies of the Forest also has a bonus feature that is activated when 3 bonus symbols appear anywhere on the screen. When they appear, you will be asked to click on one of the symbols to see how many spins you win.

Once the number of free spins are determined, you are then transported to the bonus spin screen. The bonus spins have more potential for winning spins as the first 4 reels have additional wild symbols added to them.

How Bets are Placed

When you play Pixies of the Forest, the betting options are listed on the bottom left of the screen. You will see 3 boxes. The first box is labeled 99 Lines and has 33 coins entered in the field below. This is the minimum bet which you can place.

The second box is labeled coin value and below the label is a default of 1.00. You will see arrows to the left and right of this figure. To increase you bet, click the right arrow. To decrease, press the left arrow. The arrows will not allow the number to go below 1.00 or above 30.00, the minimum and maximum bets.

The third box is the total bet. This figure is defaulted to 33.00, the minimum bet. As you adjust the arrows from the middle box to increase or decrease your bet, the total bet figure will automatically adjust.

Once you have placed your bet, you only need to press the spin button to start the game.

Game Features

Pixies of the Forest combines some well-known features with some unique features to make for a thoroughly entertaining game. These features include:

Auto Spin

This feature allows you to set the game to spin automatically for you. You can select 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 spins when you select this feature. The spins continue until one of the following situations occur:

• The number of spins you selected are exhausted
• You press the stop button
• You trigger the bonus
• You do not have enough credits to place the next bet

Tumbling Reels

Any winning pay line will trigger the Tumbling Reels feature. It occurs in both the regular game and the free spin bonus game. Any winning pay line is evaluated, paid out and then disappears from the screen. The empty spots created are then filled by the symbols above to create a new combination. These are then evaluated for any new winning pay lines. This continues until no new winning pay lines are created. This is all counted as 1 spin.

Connected Lines with 3 for 1 Betting

Lines in Pixies of the Forest are connected by symbols that are next to, or have a corner touching each other. This creates 99 pay lines in the game. The 3 for 1 betting feature will activate all 99 lines for 33 coins, thus granting you 3 pay lines for every one coin bet.

Free Spin Bonus Round

The free spin bonus round is triggered when 3 bonus symbols on any pay line appears. It can only be activated once on any given spin, so if the 3 bonus symbols appear on more than 1 pay line, it will only activate the bonus 1 time.

When you have triggered the bonus, you are told to select one of the bonus symbols. One selected, it reveals the number of free spins you receive. You can win anywhere from 5 to 11 free spins.

When in the bonus spin screen, you have more chances to win due to the addition of several more wild symbols. In order to win, a pay line must show at least 1 non wild symbol. 5 wild symbols are not considered winners in the bonus round.

Spins in the bonus round continue until all spins are exhausted. And while the Tumbling Reels feature does apply in the bonus round, there are no opportunities to win additional bonus spins.
