Maze Desire For Power

Epic quests and stories about heroic deeds of knights are not that uncommon in the iGaming industry today. You might think ‘’Oh no, just don’t go for another medieval-fantasy inspired slot!’’

But wait!

We are introducing something you certainly haven’t seen before. Intrigued? Well, you should be!

Maze: Desire for Power is a release by a Swedish innovative provider called Evoplay Entertainment.

Although they are a relatively ‘young’ slot manufacturer, they have been bringing ultra high quality games since they appeared back in 2003.

The title follows a noble knight fighting his way through an enchanted maze.

He will encounter a great deal of temptation along the way, but only courage and blade will help him reach the exit from this vicious tunnel filled with terrors.

Theme and Symbols

Although we are talking about an extraordinary graphics, the setting itself is pretty simple. A stone maze decorated with streams of blue energy is located in the dark cave.

On the sides of the grid, you’ll notice mushrooms and crystals, so we will need to hurry if we want to leave this dark moist place.

Characters, crystals, background and the following animations left us speechless. We are absolutely amazed by the level of the provider’s dedication...

...and you will be as well!

The symbols of the lowest value are green, blue, yellow and purple crystals where the last pays the most – 5x the bet for 5 of a kind.

If you want to get some bigger rewards you will need to land a combination of at least 3 differently colored, cartoonish looking monsters. The evil-looking purple one with the horns and tusks is the most lucrative and it can pay 30x the bet for 5 of a kind landed.

Also, in the main game we have 2 wilds – our brave knight and a blue energy vortex.

Betting Options

We must share our impressions about the uniqueness of this title in this segment also.

Maze: Desire for Power doesn’t feature standard paylines. Winning combinations are formed by vertical or horizontal connection of 3 or more matching symbols anywhere on the 5x5 grid.

And now something where this title really shines!

The betting range is the cherry on top. Starting at 0.10 coins per spin, it will perfectly fit all of you low-rollers out there.

But!

The maximum available bet of 500 coins per spin will delight big-shots too.

With a maximum win of 15.000 coins and an RTP set at 96% we can say that this title has already fulfilled our expectations.

Features

Wild

The animated knight symbol is the Wild and it will act as a substitution for any of the regular symbols.

Important to realize:

At the beginning of each round, the knight will appear in the lower-left corner of the grid and he will try to fight its way through the maze.

Thanks to a cascading reels mechanic, the winning symbols will explode allowing others to move along the path through the maze.

The blue vortex-style symbol is the regular Wild that will act as a standard replacement.

Free Spins

Do not expect to trigger this feature by landing scatters. It isn’t that easy here!

Whenever the knight reaches the maze exit, he will enter one of the 3 caves available (yellow, purple and cyan) and you will be awarded 10 free spins.

During this phase, the standard blue wild will change its color in accordance with the cave color into which the knight entered. So, we have:

• Yellow wild – appears only in stacks of 3 symbols
• Purple wild – creates its mirror image on the reels
• Cyan wild – lands in the form of 3 symbols randomly placed on the grid

Random Events

There are 3 main events that will randomly occur in any round without a winning combination formed:

• Blast in the cave – an explosion of 4 random symbols in a 2x2 square
• No barriers – an explosion of all symbols on a randomly picked line
• Path is open – an explosion of all symbols on a random reel

Our Take

We have reached the exit!

Evoplay Entertainment did it once more. They have brought us a unique title, full of surprises, which fulfills the expectations for each parameter.

Maze: Desire for Power is one more title in a row of successful 3D releases of this provider...

...and we hope they will proceed at the same pace.
