5 Magician's Secrets

5 Magician’s Secrets Overview

5 Magician’s Secrets is a circus-magic slot from Inbet, released on 4 September 2023 according to Inbet’s own game catalogue. It plays on a 5x3 grid with just 5 paylines, framed by red stage curtains in front of a fairground at dusk – a big wheel, fireworks and a purple sky. The symbols are the tools of a stage illusionist: the magician himself, doves, a top hat, a crystal ball and card-suit emblems. Inbet does not publish an RTP or a maximum win for this title, and SlotCatalog has no figures either, so we do not quote any.

The Paytable

The paytable screen shows all values at a bet of 50 coins (the demo uses a coin value of 0.1 FUN):

• The magician: 30,000 / 2,000 / 500 / 100 for five, four, three and two – the only regular symbol that pays for two
• Dove and top hat: 5,000 / 1,000 / 400
• Crystal ball: 2,000 / 500 / 200
• Heart, crown and diamond emblems: 1,000 / 300 / 100

At this bet, five magicians on a line are worth 600 times the stake, a big jump from the next symbol down: five doves pay 100x. With only five lines, a full line of magicians is the game’s headline hit.

The Expanding Wild

The WILD is a golden magic box. It appears only on reels 2, 3 and 4, and the rules describe its effect precisely: it “replaces all symbols on this reel except scatters”. When a wild lands, the whole reel turns wild, which on a five-line game means it joins every line that crosses that reel. Two or three wild reels together turn almost any pair of matching symbols on the outer reels into a win.

Two Scatters

The game has two scatter symbols, both styled as circus signs. The first appears only on reels 1, 3 and 5 and pays 1,000 for three. The second pays 5,000 / 1,000 / 150 for five, four and three. Scatters pay wherever they land and are not replaced by the wild. Inbet’s catalogue lists no free-games feature for this title, and none appears in our screenshots – the scatters are straight cash prizes.

What Our Spins Showed

At a bet of 50, every screenshot matches the paytable exactly:

• 1,000 (20x) – four doves on a V-shaped line
• 600 (12x) – two lines at once, with the whole second reel turned wild between magicians on the neighbouring reels
• 500 (10x) – three crystal balls plus a wild reel on the fourth position, paying as four crystal balls
• 400 (8x) – three doves on a V-shaped line
• 300 (6x) – three club emblems and a wild reel on the second position, paying as four

The 500 and 300 wins show how the expanding wild works in practice: it does not just fill a gap, it upgrades a three-of-a-kind into a four-of-a-kind, which on this paytable more than doubles the prize.

Why the Magician Matters So Much

The gap between the magician and the rest of the paytable is unusually wide. Three magicians pay 500 – more than four crystal balls – and even two of them return 100, twice the bet. Combined with the expanding wild on the middle reels, this means a magician on the first reel is always worth watching: one wild reel next to him already makes two of a kind, and a second magician further along turns it into a 500 or a 2,000 prize. Five magicians across a line are the single biggest outcome the paytable shows.

The Risk Game

After a win the game offers two buttons: TAKE to collect, or RISK to gamble the win. Inbet’s catalogue confirms the gamble feature for this title. As in other Inbet games, it is a card-based double-or-nothing round that you can stop at any time.

Stakes

The catalogue lists nine bet levels from 1 to 100 coins, with all five lines always active. In the demo the coin value was 0.1 FUN, so the bet of 50 used here equals 5 FUN per spin.

Graphics

The look is bright and theatrical: jewelled emblems, white doves with purple trails, and a magician with a top hat and a moustache who winks from the first reel. The wild reel lights up in blue and gold, and win amounts appear in large gold digits over the reels.

Who It Is For

5 Magician’s Secrets suits players who like compact, classic slots with one strong feature. With only five lines the base game is simple to follow, the expanding wild on the middle reels drives most of the wins, and the magician offers a clear top prize. All six casinos we checked carry it.
