Frankie Dettori's Magic 7 Slot Review

Frankie Dettori, an Italian jockey, is a real legend in the world of horse racing and a celebrity of international standing. Frankie won a huge number of tournaments, received many different awards and, for his impressive achievements, he was awarded the title of Cavalier of the Order of the British Empire.

A few years ago, developers from PlayTech dedicated to the outstanding jockey the Frankie Dettori's Magic Seven entertainment slot. The slot turned out to be quite a success and that is why experts of a well–known software manufacturer recently presented the second part of this video slot. This slot model has a wider choice of options, including progressive jackpots, and also has an improved interface and graphics.

Instant Play

Frankie Dettori’s Magic Seven Jackpot has five reels, twenty–five lines and fifteen symbols on the main screen. In the slot, there are special symbols, Free Spins, themed prize round, and also a risky game. The user can activate any number of paylines proposed. Line bets are automatically aligned. For each position, a bet of up to ten coins is accepted, from one cent to two dollars. That is, the minimum bet per round is limited to one cent and the maximum amount reaches five hundred dollars.

Base symbols bring winnings if they are on active lines in the form of continuous chains of identical pictures, pictures are counted from the first column on the left. The minimum number of pictures for a winning combination is two or three (depending on the type of the image). For a single taken position, the payment is fulfilled only for the longest chain, but, according to different lines in one round, there may be several payments.

The amount of winnings is calculated by multiplying the line bet by the combination coefficient specified for each of the possible formations in the special payout table. Multipliers are from x10 to x7777. If according to the results of the round, there is more than one chain of winning combinations on the screen, then the payments accrued on them are summed up.

You can immediately take the money or use it in the risk game. The user can risk all credits or half of them. In the game of chance, closed cards appear on a separate screen. You need to choose one of them. If your card is higher than the dealer's card, then your bet is doubled. Otherwise, you lose. With equal cards, a draw is declared (the suits do not matter). You can play several times in a row, but there is the maximum for the game of chances stipulated by the rules.

The RTP starts at 93.14% and can reach 94.13%, depending on several factors.

Symbols

You can see an image of Frankie Dettori in different angles, as well as various items related to horse racing: a horseshoe, a cup, and so on. In addition, the game features cards from ten to Ace.

There are also special characters: Wild (Frankie's close up), Scatter (the logo of Frankie Dettori’s Magic Seven Jackpot) and Bonus (Hippodrome). Further, briefly about the functions of special characters:

• Wild brings payouts, forming combinations according to the general rules. At the same time, wins on combinations with Wild are calculated based on the largest coefficients (up to x7777 for five characters). Wild also replaces other pictures forming combinations, except for Bonus and Scatter, which also contributes to the winnings.
• Scatter does not depend on the location on the screen. Two or more Scatters in any position bring payments that are multiplied with the total bet (from x1 to x250). Three or more Scatters qualify to participate in the Free Round Games Race.
• Bonus appears only on the first and fifth reels. When Bonus appears on two columns simultaneously, the Magic Seven Bonus game starts.

Bonus Game

Let's look at the bonus rounds available in this slot:

• Free Games Race. First, on the additional screen, you will see three riders. You need to choose one of them before the start of the race. Depending on what place your rider takes, you are credited with a certain number of Free Spins: thirty–five for the first place, fifteen for the second and ten for the third. Then Free Spins will start with the bet and the number of active lines that you had in the previous round. In the free spin rounds, the casino makes a bet for you. You cannot extend Free Spins.
• Magic Seven Bonus. This round also starts on a separate screen. You see a race track divided into sectors. Choose sectors in a random order to get multipliers. Choose a sector until “Receive” appears, completing the rally. Further, the accumulated multipliers are multiplied by your bet from the previous round to form the final winnings.

Progressive Jackpots

In Frankie Dettori’s Magic Seven Jackpot, there are two separate progressive jackpots: Golden 7 and Silver 5. They are accumulated due to the deduction of 0.99% of all bets to the prize pool. The starting amounts of the jackpots are €70,000 and €7,000, accordingly.

Each user participates in the jackpot draw. A special round may begin in any of the spins, but the higher your bet, the more likely you get it. If you participate in a special round, you are guaranteed to get one of two jackpots. The jackpot draws run on an additional screen, where twelve closed cells appear (3x4). Seven cells hide gold cups, and five – silver. Open the cells in a random order until you collect all the gold or all the silver trophies. As soon as you collect a complete set, you become the owner of the corresponding progressive jackpot.
