First things first, there’s no getting away from the fact that it’s impossible to win anything at all in the base game. No doubt that particular feature will prove divisive amongst players, but for us, it didn’t detract from the overall experience much, if at all. Our only real complaint is the 750x max win which feels a little low at the high volatility setting. Nevertheless, if horror and Hold the Jackpot rounds tick your slot boxes, you will most likely be pleased with what you find here.

Mystery Kingdom: Mystery Bells Basic Rules

  • The game takes place on a 4x3 grid
  • On each spin, the 12 slot positions will reveal either a blank or a special symbol
  • In the base game, the only row which really matters is the central row, creating effectively one payline
  • Land four special symbols of any type on this row, and your sinister slots adventure will move into the Hold the Jackpot Bonus

Mystery Kingdom: Mystery Bells - Hold the Jackpot Slot Paytable & Symbols

There are four types of special symbol you'll come across in the MYstery Kingdom: Mystery Bells base game:

  • Cash Symbol - A gold coin with a cash value attached, worth 1x-5x your stake
  • Infinity Coin - Sticky symbols worth 5x-10x your stake
  • Collector Symbol - Accumulates all values from Cash Symbols and Infinity Coins, multiplying them by 1x-20x your stake
  • Mystery Symbol - Can turn into one of the other Bonus symbols

Infinity Cash Symbols

These attractive Red Coins are the Sticky Symbols of the base game – remaining locked in place until the bonus round is triggered. They are particularly helpful when they land on the central row, as this increases your chance of activating the bonus round on subsequent spins. Cash Infinity Symbols contain a prize of 5x-10x, but these values can only be collected at the end of the Hold the Jackpot Bonus.

Hold the Jackpot Bonus

Landing four Special Symbols on the central row will see the Hold the Jackpot Bonus Round kick into gear, with the four central triggering symbols - and any Cash Infinity Symbols - in view remaining locked in place for the duration of the round.

Mystery Bells Pick Me Game

Before the round begins, Bell Symbols will fill all blank spaces on the grid. Your task is then to select one of these Bell Symbols to reveal either a blank or:

  • Mini Jackpot: 10x
  • Minor Jackpot: 20x
  • Major Jackpot: 50x
  • Grand Jackpot: 750x

Any Mini, Minor, or Major Jackpot symbols will lock in place for the duration of the round. However, if you select the Grand Jackpot, this represents the max win in the game, seeing the round end immediately.

Assuming you don’t pick out the Grand Jackpot, all Bell Symbols will be removed from the reels, and the “Re-spins-Style” round will begin. During the round, all remaining empty positions spin to reveal either a blank or a special symbol. Landing all blanks will see your starting total of three re-spins decrease by one, but hitting just one new special symbol will reset your tally to three.

In the Bonus Round, ALL special symbols which land become sticky, with the following types available.

  • Cash Symbols: Gold Coins containing a prize of 1x-5x
  • Jackpot Coins: Contain a Mini, Minor, or Major Jackpot
  • Collector Symbols: These Treasure Chests collect the values of all Cash and Infinity Cash symbols in view and apply a random multiplier of 1x-20x
  • Mystery: Will reveal a Cash Symbol, Mini, Minor, or Major Jackpot, or a Collector Symbol
  • Jackpot Mystery: Will reveal a Mini, Minor or Major Jackpot

The Hold the Jackpot round continues until you run out of spins or fill all twelve positions with a special symbol.

If you run out of spins, all Mystery Symbols will open to reveal their prizes, and you will win the total value of all prizes in view.

Fill all twelve positions and you will lose the value of all prizes, and instead win the 750x Grand Jackpot!

Our Verdict: If any game needed an exciting bonus round, it is surely this one. Thankfully, Wazdan has delivered, with the variety of special symbols on offer adding real excitement and decent win potential.

Mystery Kingdom: Mystery Bells - Hold the Jackpot Slot Graphics & Audio

Graphics

All the classic horror tropes are in evidence in the beautifully illustrated backdrop. Mists swirl in the darkness, skulls litter the ground and red-eyed bats swoop and stare. The game symbols don’t quite follow suit, but it is still nice to note the attention to detail, with otherworldly bats acting as the blanks and adorning the various coin and special symbols.

Audio

The sound team have done a great job of conjuring a retro horror movie atmosphere. Brooding violins, mournful wails, and plucking harps - even the owls help out with suitably unsettling hoots and howls.

Our Verdict: The graphics are all top quality, but special praise goes to the soundtrack, which pulls off the trick of being equal parts soothing and unnerving.
