Slot Technicalities
All of the basic symbols are bottles containing potions. The four most valuable also contain playing card symbols – hearts, diamonds, clubs and spades. The colours pink, red, orange, blue, yellow and green differentiate the other basic symbols. The bottle labelled ‘Wild’ obviously represents the wild symbol and will substitute for all symbols except for the scatter. The scatter is the ‘Potion Commotion’ logo and it will activate the main feature. Since the beginning of time, alchemists have been interested in turning just about anything into gold – and in the Potions Commotion slot game you will always feel like an alchemist, which we think is great.
Mixing potions is the name of the game in this slot. Search for three vials with green or yellow potions and you will win 5x your initial stake, whilst 5 similar vials will give you 100x your stake. There are a lot of opportunities to increase your earnings, which is one of the great things about this slot. Five vials containing orange or blue potions will give you 150x your stake, whilst red or pink potions will give you 200x the amount you wagered. With a maximum potential of 5000x, you always feel you can win more since the return to player (RTP) percentage of 95.044% definitely increases your expectations of winning.
Special Bonus Features
What's a good slot game without its special or bonus features? Potion Commotion has its own special features, which include wilds, a scatter and the gamble feature. These are all designed to help increase your winning potential and on a lucky day you can easily increase your earnings.
The gamble feature allows you to go wild. If just spinning the reels isn’t enough excitement for you then there’s the option to live really dangerously by using the gamble feature. Any win can be gambled by clicking the hearts/clubs button below the reels.
The Potion Commotion slot game is one where the colour of the next playing card that comes up on the reels could double or quadruple your win. Five of the same is the limit.

All wins will get tripled during free spins, whilst the free game bonus may get re-triggered during the free game mode. Scatter symbols can also trigger the feature of free games. Three scatter symbols can trigger 10 free games, 4 symbols trigger 15 free games and 5 symbols trigger 20 free games.
