Makeover Magic Slot Machine

If you’re looking for a game to make you feel absolutely fabulous, why not pamper yourself with a few spins on Eyecon’s Makeover Magic video slot?

A 5 reel, 25 payline title featuring a girls-around-town theme, Makeover Magic will nevertheless appeal to both male and female players courtesy of its engaging bonus rounds, substitute wilds and a regular base game jackpot of 5,000x your starting stake.

Available to play from as little as £0.25 per spin with all paylines enabled, Makeover Magic is a game that won’t break the bank but will give you a shot at winning some substantial prizes – and all while enjoying the glitz and glamour of a boutique-style shopping spree.

Pure and Simple

Although Eyecon are not exactly a household name when it comes to video slot titles, the Australian-based studio should be commended for creating a game that is incredibly straightforward to play, even for those who are completely unfamiliar with their software.

All variables in Makeover Magic are controlled by two main buttons labelled “change bet” and “change lines”, with players able to bet a maximum of 20 credits per line on between 1 and 25 active paylines. This means that the game is playable from between £0.25 and £5, making it a video slot that is clearly geared towards those playing on more stringent starting bankrolls.

For their investment, players will be chasing a maximum base game jackpot of 5,000x their bet per line for matching five luxury make-up bundles, with smaller prizes starting from 3x their bet for any regular three-of-a-kind combination. Additionally, there is a pick-and-click bonus feature where players can win up to 100x their stake and a gamble option that lets you double any winnings.

Girls Aloud

Given the theme, it should come as no surprise that Makeover Magic features plenty of feminine touches, with the reels being liberally doused in bright pinks and sparkling lilacs and sitting atop a background that features store windows, women’s dresses and silhouettes of female shoppers.

The symbols that feature on the reels, meanwhile, are completely unique to the game, with gift tags, vouchers, manicures, boots and handbags all featuring among the lower value icons. At the top end of the pay-scale, however, players will find more luxurious items such as the aforementioned make-up bundles, designer watches and a gift hamper of toiletries to complete the decadent gift theme.

There are five female characters in Makeover Magic – Chloe, Michelle, Vanessa, Sandra and Daphne – and each of them appears on their own separate reel. Any combination of three or more of the girls triggers the bonus pick game, while a symbol depicting the three girls at a cafe activates up to 25 free spins and a salon makeover icon acts as a wild that can be substituted for all regular symbols.

Shop Until You Drop

There are two main bonus features in Makeover Magic – one a pick-and-click style game that awards instant cash prizes and the other a free spins feature that can give away up to 25 bonus games.

As mentioned above, the first is triggered whenever three or more of the girls appear anywhere on the gameboard, with players receiving a number of picks based on how many of the quintet feature. Once this happens, players will be moved to a new screen where they’ll get to open between 3 and 5 curtains to reveal an instant-win amount, with a maximum of 100x your stake up for grabs each pick.

The free spins feature, meanwhile, is activated whenever three or more cafe scatter symbols appear on the reels. As with the prize pick feature, the more cafe symbols that appear, the more free spins players will be entitled to, with 15, 20 or 25 bonus games on offer for 3, 4 or 5 scatters respectively.

Chic or Shabby?

Although Eyecon are clearly setting their sights on a predominantly female market with Makeover Magic, the fact remains that generous prize awards on offer means that it will still hold some appeal with all players. Indeed, regardless of whether you’re male or female, it will be hard to look past the generous base game jackpot and a prize pick game that can potentially award up 500x your stake – and that’s before you even consider the additional wins that are available using the gamble feature.
