Yggdrasil releases new Defenders of Mystica slot

Yggdrasil is taking players to a fantasy realm in dire need of heroes in its latest slot release, Defenders of Mystica.

The seven-reel title boasts 28,125 ways to win, paying across both directions. Five fairies act as the high paying symbols in the game, while a colourful orb serves as a mystery symbol that can turn into any spin.

When part of a successful combination, it will trigger the Sticky Respins mode, where all other icons are removed and the random symbol is rechosen for the succeeding spin.

“Defenders of Mystica sees us transport players to a fantasy world as well as bring a lucrative respins mode to the fore, courtesy of Mystery Symbols,” said Yggdrasil chief gaming officer Mark McGinley. “It’s another visually fantastic creation from our team that explores an engaging theme and brings more joy to our fanbase across the world.”

Two Scatter symbols landing on the first and last reel launch the Free Spins mode, awarding at least seven spins. During the Free Spins mode, the Mystery Symbols that land remain on the reels for the duration of the bonus, significantly boosting chances of respins.

In certain jurisdictions, there is the option to buy access to the bonus feature for 100x a player’s stake.
