ABOUT THE BERICHED SLOT 

Beriched is a witchcraft-themed online slot, featuring boiling cauldrons and magic portion recipes. The game’s title is a smart word-play on the word “Bewitched”, basically providing a hint into what the slot is all about.

The game is set in what looks like the dimly lit witch’s lab. You can see the witch’s broom and next to the door is a hanging pot. A large cauldron sits at the center of the room with an ominous-looking green portion boiling over the edges. Candles and a small lamp on the walls are the only source of light in the creepy-looking room. The highly decorated golden reels hang over the cauldron, with green bubbles and purple mists rising each time something spectacular happens. 

The game opens with a loud sound of cackling witches, setting a perfect tone for what is to come. A foreboding sound, accompanied by regular slot machine sounds plays each time you hit the spin button. 

GAMEPLAY 

WAGER

Beriched has a five-reel, four-row setup. The game has 20 paylines. The paylines are fixed, which means you cannot vary the number of active paylines for each spin. The minimum stake amount for each spin in the Beriched slot is £0.20. A winning combination is formed if three or more matching icons land on adjacent reels of a pay line from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. 

SYMBOLS

Beriched slot has 10 regular game icons. This includes an equal number of low and high-value symbols. The low-paying symbols are the card icons (A, K, Q, J, and 10 cards), stylised to fit the slot’s theme. They pay 0.4x, 0.6x, 0.8x, 1.0x, and 1.5x respectively for a five-symbol combination. 

On the high end of the spectrum, the premium symbols are witchcraft-related icons. The doll pays two times for a five icon combination, the portion bottle pays 2.5x, the frog pays three times while the magic spell book pays four times. The highest-paying icon in this game is the green witch/wizard hat which offers a payout of 10x for a five-of-a-kind combo in one spin. Beriched also has a Wild icon, represented by the giant letter “W”.

SPECIAL FEATURES 

The Wild symbol in the Beriched slot doesn’t appear on its own like other symbols. Instead, it is linked to the unique recipe feature, which is based on a symbol lock mechanic. Before the reel symbols appear at the start of the game, a random set of symbols appears below the grid. There are five symbols in total, meaning there’s one symbol under each reel. 

During a spin, if you land a symbol that matches the corresponding symbol below it from the recipe pattern, the symbol is locked in place for the next spin. The locked symbol is surrounded by a magical bubble to make it easier to identify. On the next spin, if a new matching symbol lands on another reel, it will get locked as well, triggering the Symbol Lock mechanic for another spin. However, if no new matching symbol lands on the next spin, the locked symbols are unlocked and you’ll have to rebuild the recipe again from scratch. 

On the flip side, if you manage to complete the recipe by matching symbols consecutively on all five reels,  all the locked symbols will turn Wild for the next spin. The recipe pattern is then removed from the reels and a new recipe pattern appears. A line of sticky Wild symbols awards a payout of 15x the wager amount. The Sticky Wild can also substitute for the rest of the symbols in the triggering spin to form a winning combination. 

BERICHED FREE SPINS FEATURES

Beriched has a Scatter symbol represented by a boiling cauldron of magic potions. This symbol only appears on reels one, three, and five. Three or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will trigger the free spins bonus round, granting 10 free spins. 

Each time a Scatter appears on the reels, it is locked for the next spin. Any new Scatter will also get locked. This will continue until the free spins feature is activated or no new Scatter lands on the reels. The lock will also hold if a new recipe symbol is locked on the reel for subsequent spins. 

The symbol lock recipe feature is active during the bonus round as well. Landing all the recipe symbols will trigger the Wild transformation symbol just like the base game, increasing your chances of earning rewards.  

Another way to get free spins to play casino games like Beriched is through casino bonuses. Many real money casinos give both new and existing players free spins and other bonuses as incentives to get them to register and play more games. 

For instance, newly registered players on the EnergyCasino site will get a no-deposit free spin as a welcome bonus on the casino. Existing players on EnergyCasino can also get free spins through other promotions including EnergySpins rewards, loyalty bonuses,  or gifts for participating in tournaments.

OUR THOUGHTS ON BERICHED SLOT

If you’re in for some spooky fun, then the Beriched slot might be a good option for you. The recipe and symbol lock feature is a unique twist that makes it different from other games. This recipe feature also gives you something to look forward to each spin, making gameplay more interesting. Note that the symbols aren’t very lucrative on their own and the max win possible on a single spin is less than 3,000x the wager amount.
