Tizona

Tizona Free Play: Merkur's Moving-Wild Medieval Slot

The Sword That Travels the Reels

The sword is Tizona's Wild, substituting for every symbol except the scatter. What makes it unusual is that it doesn't stay put: once it lands, it shifts one reel to the left on each following spin until it slides off the left edge. Land it on the rightmost reel and you get several spins with a live wild drifting across the grid, and because its path is predictable you can see where it's heading next. It's a simple idea that keeps the base game ticking over between features rather than relying on a static wild.

Shield Scatters and Upgrading Wilds in Free Spins

The free spins round is triggered by the Shield scatter: land three, four or five to win 10, 15 or 20 free spins respectively. During the round the sword wild can be upgraded so it grows taller and covers more of a reel, which — combined with the moving-wild behavior — is where Tizona's better free-spins wins come from. Merkur's usual optional gamble step is also available after a win if you want to risk it for a chance to double up.

An El Cid Theme Built on Swords and Shields

The presentation leans on a medieval battlefield look — golds, deep reds and steel-blue tones, with swords, shields, knights and royal crests as the high-value symbols and styled card ranks filling the lower tier. It's atmosphere over spectacle: clean and readable rather than heavily animated, which suits the straightforward gameplay.

Specs, RTP and What to Expect

The 95.95% RTP sits just above the 96% average, and wins lean toward the smaller, more frequent end — which fits the game's modest maximum win of around 600x your stake. Tizona is a steady, session-friendly slot rather than a high-ceiling chaser. Stakes start from 0.10 per spin and the ten paylines are fixed, so there's nothing to configure beyond bet size. Because the demo uses the same maths as the real game, it's an accurate way to gauge how often the wild travels deep and how the free spins land.
