Agatha Christie's Mystery Wilds Slots

Agatha Christie’s Mystery Wilds introduces slots players to the best-loved characters from the world’s most famous mystery novelist!

Miss Marple and Poirot battle for attention on the reels along with various murder mystery and writing-related symbols. There are an impressive 50 paylines in this slot machine, along with sticky wilds and mystery prizes, plus a free spins bonus round for plenty of ways to win.

Players can use the magnifying glass to collect clues and boost their payouts in this wickedly atmospheric slot game.

Murder Most Foul

As soon as the game loads up the 1920s theme becomes apparent with the retro wallpaper in the background, a purple art deco carpet on the floor and an umbrella stand to the left of the screen. The reels are set out as though creating an antique mirror and even the symbols have a retro look to them to add to the style of the slot. Every spin is accompanied by dramatic harp music and tinkling sound effects to create a sinister atmosphere, reminding you that this slot is all about murder most foul!

Before getting stuck into the murder mystery, however, you need to select your stake. The 50 paylines are fixed so you cannot change the number you play each spin. However, it is possible to change your line bet from a minimum of €0.01 to a maximum of €1.00, giving a minimum overall bet of €0.50 per spin and a maximum total bet of €50.00 per spin. This betting range may start too high for more cautious slot players, so this game is best suited to mid or high rollers. Once you have decided on your bet, it’s time to delve into the classic whodunnit.

Payouts from Poirot and Miss Marple

Will you be as skilful as Poirot in your gameplay? To raise your chances of pocketing some clever payouts, we can take a look at the paytable. The highest-paying symbols are the green wild with gold lettering and the Miss Marple symbol, which both pay 200x your bet for 5 matching symbols. The second-best symbol in the game is the Poirot symbol, which pays 150x your bet for 5 matching symbols.

The red-haired woman and brown-haired man couple symbol is the third-highest paying symbol awarding 100x your bet for 5 matching icons on the reels. The objects are the lowest paying symbols with the pile of Agatha Christie books, the green poison bottle, the typewriter and the chunk of cheese on a mousetrap all paying 20x your bet for 5 symbols.

Spin Mystery Wilds and Collect Clues

The question mark symbol is a mystery wild, which turns into a random symbol whenever it appears the reels. It also has the potential to change into a regular wild symbol. This is good news because throughout the game there is a wild clue meter running up the side of the screen.

Whenever you hit a wild symbol one magnifying glass appears on the meter accompanied by a magical, twinkling sound effect. You need to get 8 magnifying glasses during one spin to trigger the free spins bonus game. However, if you find a lock symbol, this freezes the wild clue meter giving you the chance to spin again to find enough wilds in total to trigger the bonus game.

The lock symbol can appear over the clue meter randomly on any spin, so there is always the chance to lock your progress on the meter for another spin.

Agatha Christie’s Mysterious Free Spins Bonus

If you hit 8 or more wild symbols anywhere on the reels, you trigger the free spins bonus game. During this fun feature, you have to pick 5 of Agatha Christie’s famous books to find clues and see how many free spins you have won. Any clues you find will appear in the clues meter.

Every wild that appears during the bonus games will add a clue to the meter and once you have found 8 clues, a purple sticky wild will stay in place for the remainder of the free spins to give lots more potential winning combinations.

A Masterful Mystery Game for Mid to High Rollers

This game is a clever idea from Gamesys, bringing together some great murder mystery characters and a simple but effective 1920s theme. The symbols and music are engaging and help to build the atmosphere, while the various special features are entertaining and inventive enough to keep the interest level high.

The payouts from the regular symbols are not particularly generous, though with 50 fixed paylines and a minimum bet of €0.50, this is not a low-roller’s game, so the rewards are a little higher than normal by default.

The clue collecting feature is a nice touch and goes perfectly with the murder mystery theme, while lockable clue meter means players have more opportunities to trigger the most lucrative part of the slot, the free spins bonus round. Fans of Miss Marple and Poirot will love this theme, while the pleasant music helps to encourage more spinning.

Overall, this is an attractive game with great potential for all mid and high rolling players – and especially for murder mystery enthusiasts.
