Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 is releasing this week. As a brand Harry Potter is perhaps bigger than The Lord of the Rings and there is little likelihood of it appearing as a branded slot game in the near future. Therefore fans who want to celebrate the release of this last but one Harry Potter movie will have to wager on other magic themed slot games. Fortunately magic is a popular theme and all major online gaming software providers offer slots with this theme. This article reviews some of the best slots.

Magic Spell online slot from Microgaming is the most like Harry Potter stories because it is set up in a school for magic, although one for cats. The wild symbol is Master Tom and the high paying symbols are the students Leo, Catrina and Baz. These students bear an uncanny resemblance to the trio of Harry Potter. Leo, like Harry, has a taste for mischief. Catrina, like Hermione, is far more interested in books than in boys. And Baz, like Ron, makes a complete blunder of even the simplest of spells. The other symbols include Emblem, Building, Teacher, Satchel, Tie, Lamp, Scroll and Snacks. The symbols are bold and colorful and full of energy. A school bell type background audio can be heard as the reels spin. There are some magical animations when Master Tom appears in winning combinations and turns his students into rats. The bonus game on the second screen is triggered when the letters M, A, G, I and C appear scattered from left to right. Players find the golden key and win access to the Secret Library Bonus.

Witches and Warlocks is an excellent magic themed slot game from the software provider Cryptologic. The Warlock is the wild symbol and the Witch is the scatter symbol. The other symbols are Cauldron, Crystal Ball, Potions, Cat, Skull, Pumpkin, Spell Book, Broom and Witches Hat. The spell casting animations in the Warlock and Witch symbols are amazing. The spells as flashes of light go right across the reels. The Witches and Warlocks feature is triggered when three or more Witch symbols appear anywhere on the reels. The player has to choose either the Witch or the Warlock in a fight to death using spells and potions. Prizes are awarded for each spell cast or potion used to damage the opponent. The life meter of each combatant shows the amount of life left. Following a victory prizes are awarded based on the remaining life left in the meter. Following a loss a consolation prize is awarded.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is supposed to be the scariest Harry Potter movie with the evil Voldermort in full flow. Hence the third magic theme slot chosen is Black Magic from Vegas Technology. Most of the symbols on the reels are the kind of items used to propagate evil such as Vial, Skull, Snake, Spider, Bat and Grave Stone. The Witch is the wild symbol and can be heard shrieking and seen casting a green light spell when she substitutes for other symbols to make winning combinations. In the Black Magic feature players have to select from six crystal balls to win bonus credits.
