It is the third game released this year with the overall Oz theme by the same studio. The other two popular games are <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Book of Oz<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sisters of Oz<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This online casino game is based on the Wizard of Oz book by Lyman Frank Baum. Having said that, the Legacy of Oz comes with some fantastic game features. Here we\u2019re talking about the Expanding Reels, Free Spins and the Hyperspins Feature, which is quite a novelty.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before getting too excited, let\u2019s go through all of what the game has to offer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>The Highlights:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Five reels and three rows\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10 pay-lines<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RTP of 94.09%<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maximum payout of 5,000x<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Very High Volatility<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyperspins Feature<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Legend of Oz Theme and Background<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get the game started, turn the volume up and sit back to absorb it all in before firing up the reels. You will immediately be spellbound by the element of mystery and magic in the music. The background element also does its part. Set in an enchanted room with purple walls and green columns along with a crystal ball on either side of the reels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Legend of Oz is set on a five-reel and three-row grid. It comes with a total of 10 set pay lines.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The game symbols naturally go hand in hand with the Wizard of Oz theme. Starting from the highest paying symbol, we have the mysterious magician. Then we have the potion bottles, which come in three distinctive colours. They come in red, blue and purple are mid paying symbols. Last by not least this game comes with the standard 10-A Royals which as expected are the lower-paying symbols.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The book symbol plays the role that it does in many \u2018Book of\u2026\u2019 games. It plays a dual role, that of wild and of a scatter. In the case of the Wild, it substitutes for all regular symbols to form a winning combination. Whilst when acting as a scatter, the Book symbols triggers the game\u2019s Free Spins feature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1523 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert.jpg\" alt=\"legacy of oz\" width=\"580\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-480x124.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pros<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fantastic game features.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cons<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seasoned players may see this game to be more of the same.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Special Game Features of Legend of OZ<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next comes the most exciting part of every game review, the game features. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Legend of Oz comes with three main game Features. These being:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyperspins Feature<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Free Spins Feature\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Expanding Symbols<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h5><b>Hyperspins Feature<\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Starting with the most famous one for this game.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you fire up the reels and all symbols have landed you get the opportunity to pay and respin one of the reels again. The price can be clearly seen at the bottom of each reel. This cost varies per reel, as this depends on the combination at hand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can respin as many times as you want especially if you\u2019re close to landing a big winning combination. Make sure to choose wisely which reel to respin.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><b>Free Spins Feature<\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To trigger the Free Spins feature, you will need to land at least three scatter symbols.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These could be anywhere on the reels. You\u2019ll win the following number of free spins, along with a fixed payout:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Land three scatters and get awarded 8 Free Spins along with a payout equal to 2x the stake;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Four scatters and get awarded 12 free spins along with a payout equal to 20x the stake;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Five scatters and get awarded 20 free spins along with a payout equal to 200x the stake.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h5><b>Expanding Symbols<\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the start of the Free Spins, a random symbol is awarded. These special symbols expand to cover the reel and pay when matching symbols appear anywhere on the line.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is good to keep in mind that these special symbols will only expand when a win can be completed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1521 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-copy.jpg\" alt=\"Legacy of Oz\" width=\"580\" height=\"150\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-copy.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-copy-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-copy-480x124.jpg 480w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 580px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 580\/150;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1521 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-copy.jpg\" alt=\"Legacy of Oz\" width=\"580\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-copy.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-copy-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Insert-copy-480x124.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h3><b>Legacy of Oz Payouts and Wagering Limits<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you decide on your bet value you can fire up the reels and wait for the mysterious magician or the book to fall on the reels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The betting starts from as little as $0.10 and goes up to up to $40 per spin. This makes the game relevant and interesting to beginner players.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To form a winning combination, land two, three, four or even five matching high-value symbols or wilds on a pay line, beginning from the leftmost reel. When it comes to the lower-paying you will need at least three to earn a reward.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the high paying symbols, landing five will reward you with a payout worth 60x to 500x your stake. Whilst lower-paying symbols can payout between 8x and 12x when landing five on the reels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Legacy of Oz comes with a hit frequency rate of 30%. This means that on average you can expect to land a winning combination once in every three or nearly four spins. Having such a high volatility level, it is very important to be careful especially in the short term.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>The final verdict on Legacy of OZ<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At first glance, Legacy of Oz does not seem to have the most original theme and gameplay. But the whole experience around it does change your opinion about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best part about this video game has to be that only 2 Book symbols are needed to retrigger<strong> Free Spins<\/strong> and transform another symbol into an expanding one. Along with having a feature that is not that common in pokies, this being the Hyperspin Feature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Play Responsibly<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Legacy of OZ is a fun and easy-going pokies game hence it&#8217;s good to keep in mind that you can get easily caught up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">We strongly advise all players to<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/account\/responsible-gaming\/view-limits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0set their limits<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0before starting to play at an online casino.
