More Magic Apple is a fairy‑tale video slot with a “Hold & Win” mechanic inspired by the classic story of Snow White.
Developer 3 Oaks Gaming blends the familiar plot with modern gaming trends and presents it in a vibrant fantasy‑fairy‑tale format.
The designers paid special attention to the characters’ facial animations: when winning combinations appear Snow White smiles, while the Evil Queen disappears in a cloud of green smoke. Particle effects with “magic dust” fill the screen during free spins, turning every spin into a mini scene from a cartoon.

3. Paytable: who is the most generous here
3.1. Symbols and multipliers
Payouts are expressed as multipliers of the total bet.
Symbol | 3 symbols | 4 symbols | 5 symbols |
---|---|---|---|
Wild (Red heart‑apple) | 2.60× | 6.50× | 32.50× |
Snow White | 2.60× | 6.50× | 32.50× |
Handsome Prince | 1.30× | 5.20× | 26.00× |
Evil Queen | 0.65× | 3.90× | 19.50× |
Brave Huntsman | 0.65× | 3.25× | 15.60× |
Kind Dwarf | 0.65× | 2.60× | 13.00× |
A, K, Q, J | 0.65× | 1.30× | 6.50× |
- Wild and Snow White grant the largest base payouts — 32.5× the stake for a five‑of‑a‑kind line.
- “High” category symbols (Queen, Huntsman, Dwarf) balance variance and combo frequency.
- Card ranks appear more often than others, “feeding” the balance in long sessions.
- Fact hunt: Wild participates in about 38 % of all winning lines.
4. Magic symbols and hidden boosters
Wild heart
- Appears on any reels.
- Substitutes for any base symbol, helping complete combinations.
- Does not replace Scatter and Bonus apples, preserving the importance of key mechanics.
Scatter “Fairy‑tale Palace”
Scatters | Free spins | Extra Wilds at round start |
---|---|---|
3 | 10 | 2 |
4 | 10 | 3 |
5 + | 10 | 5 |
During free spins, three or more Scatters add another 5 free spins. At each retrigger the palace is lit with new torches, highlighting the continuation of the round.
Bonus apples: red and gold
They drop only when the Hold & Win bonus mode is active. Golden apples unlock jackpots:
Golden apples | Jackpot name | Prize (× total bet) |
---|---|---|
2 | Mini | 20× |
3 | Minor | 50× |
4 | Major | 100× |
5 | Grand | 5000× |
If bonus symbols fill the entire grid, every value is doubled!
5. Practical strategy: how to tame the fairy tale
Important: strategy does not cancel RNG; the goal is to manage risk and enjoyment.
- Bankroll for 150–200 spins: helps you survive “cold” stretches.
- Raise the bet when two Scatters land: free spins triggered with an expensive bet are especially profitable.
- Enter the bonus round comfortably: make a series of medium bets rather than going all‑in.
- Watch for retriggers: usually once every 120 spins; increase the bet as the event approaches.
- Set a win limit: cashed out 100×? Take half of the profit.
- Ignore myths about “hot” slots: each spin is independent.
- Autoplay: use only with a stable connection so you don’t lose free spins due to a disconnect.
6. “Apple Harvest” bonus round: Hold & Win mechanics
6.1. What a bonus game is in principle
The bonus round is a separate mode with special rules, triggered by a rare combination. In More Magic Apple it is a “re‑spin lotto” with an accumulating pot, complemented by a top row of boosters and a Collect symbol.
6.2. How the round starts and unfolds
- Trigger: 6 + bonus apples.
- Start: 3 re‑spins; all apples are fixed.
- Reload: each new apple resets the counter to 3.
- Value range: 0.5× – 10× of the stake.
- Top row boosters:
- “+” — adds a fixed prize to all apples below it.
- “×” — multiplies the amounts below it (2×–10×).
- “Gold” — turns a regular apple into a golden one.
- “Basket” symbol: collects all current prizes, freeing the cells.
- Finish: after three empty re‑spins, all values plus a possible jackpot are summed up.
7. Demo mode: practice without risk

When playing the demo, practice “stop at limit” — a useful responsible‑gaming skill.
7.2. How to enable it
- Open the slot in the casino lobby.

- If the button is inactive, look for the joystick‑switch icon (desktop — under the reels, mobile — side menu).

Lifehack: demo won’t launch? Try another browser or disable the VPN — sometimes geolocation blocks the load.
8. Final impressions: should you bite the magic apple?
More Magic Apple successfully combines a fairy tale with the modern Hold & Win trend. An RTP close to 96 %, four fixed jackpots, bonus Wilds and a maximum win of 5000× make the slot competitive even alongside the market’s top releases.
A cinematic soundtrack and premium animation instantly immerse you in the atmosphere. The bonus round is not drawn‑out, and the top row of boosters creates a “winding‑up spiral” effect — every new apple can radically increase the final total.
Editorial subjective rating:
Graphics — 9/10, Sound — 8/10, Bonuses — 9/10, Potential — 8/10, Replayability — 7/10.
