The Pixies of the Forest slot whisks you off to a magical, enchanted woodland where 3 playful pixies play beneath the towering tree canopies. Above, glimpses of a rainbow sky filter through the branches, making for an attractive setting.

The sounds of the game are very relaxing and include birdsong, the rustling of forest creatures, and the cheerful laughter and singing of the pixies themselves.

On the reels are the magical pixies themselves. The purple pixie is the highest-value symbol. 

Here are all of the symbols and their values:

• Q: 3, 4 or 5 = 0.03, 0.15 or 0.75 x the bet

• A: 3, 4 or 5 = 0.09, 0.30 or 1.21 x the bet
• Pixie with red background: 3, 4 or 5 = 0.30, 1.51 or 12.12 x the bet

Pixies of the Forest Mobile

Even though it's an older game, the Pixies of the Forest slot is built using HTML5 technology, ensuring a top gaming experience across all devices. The gameplay is excellent whether you’re playing on Android, iOS, tablet, or desktop. This is the case with all IGT slot games. 

There are 2 bonus features to enjoy when playing the Pixies of the Forest slot: The Tumbling Reels and Free Spins features, which I’ll tell you about right now:

Free Spins Bonus

Landing 3 or more bonus symbols trigger the Free Spins Bonus feature. Before it begins, you click on 1 of the triggering bonus symbols to reveal how many free spins you’ve been awarded. The amount ranges between 5 and 11.

During the feature, the wild symbol can improve your chances of winning as in the base game, as it can land on the middle 3 reels but during the free spins it can land on reels 1, 2, 3 and 4. 

Tumbling Reels 

When you land a winning combination, the winning symbols disappear from the grid, and new symbols tumble down from above, which means more chances of landing a win. This keeps repeating until there are no more winning combos.

Rating: 4.2/5

The Pixies of the Forest slot is a timeless classic from IGT that began its journey in land-based casinos. With maximum wins of 2,000 x your bet, the game includes a Tumble feature and a Free Spins bonus, where you can earn up to 11 free spins.

While the design of the Pixies of the Forest slot may feel a bit dated in certain aspects - such as the coin options displayed in traditional brown boxes - the main pixie artwork and sound effects remain charming and modern. Set in an enchanting woodland, the cheerful soundscape featuring the pixies’ laughter, adds an endearing touch.

The pixies are charming, and the purple pixie with the highest value reminds me of Hollywood actress Halle Berry, maybe she was the inspo!

The original Las Vegas version of the game, titled Secrets of the Forest, has been one of IGT’s most successful titles. Its popularity led to the creation of this online version, as well as a sequel and a jackpot edition.

Like many games that are brought from land casinos to online, the features are pretty basic. However, this simplicity is part of its charm. For players who enjoy a classic slot experience with a single Free Spins bonus, Pixies of the Forest is certainly worth a spin. Pixies of the Forest earns a 4.2 out of 5 rating from OLBG, for its enchanting setting and enduring mass appeal.

Many iconic slot games have successfully made the leap from land-based casinos to online platforms. IGT has an impressive lineup of classics, including Da Vinci Diamonds and Cleopatra. Novomatic has also contributed legendary titles like Lord of the Ocean, Lucky Lady's Charm Deluxe and Book of Ra Deluxe. 

OLBG’s Chris Taylor spoke to IGT’s Phil O’Toole, who is the Director of Content, about everything slots, including how land-based slot games are chosen to become available online, which is an interesting read.
