Yggdrasil ventures to fairytale kingdom in Defenders of Mystica

Leading igaming publisher Yggdrasil has journeyed to a fantasy realm in dire need of heroes in its latest launch, Defenders of Mystica.

The seven-reel title boasts 28,125 ways to win, paying across both directions. Five fearsome fairies act as the high paying symbols, while a colourful orb is a mystery symbol, which can turn into any spin. If part of a successful combination, it will trigger the sticky respins mode, where all other icons are removed and the random symbol is rechosen for the succeeding spin.

Two scatter symbols, landing on the first and last reel, launch the free spins mode, awarding at least seven spins. During the free spins mode, the mystery symbols that land remain on the reels for the duration of the bonus, significantly boosting chances of respins.

In certain jurisdictions, there is the option to buy access to the bonus feature for 100x a player’s stake.

Defenders of Mystica becomes the latest Yggdrasil core product to join its expansive portfolio of more than 200 titles, following recent release Wild Stack Frenzy.

Mark McGinley, chief gaming officer at Yggdrasil, said: “Defenders of Mystica sees us transport players to a fantasy world as well as bring a lucrative respins mode to the fore, courtesy of mystery symbols.

“It’s another visually fantastic creation from our team that explores an engaging theme and brings more joy to our fanbase across the world.”
