The Witch's Brew slot is a low-volatility RealTime Gaming game from August 2016, with five reels, three rows and 25 betways. Third-party listings name respin wilds, respins, free spins, wilds and scatters, plus a 25,000x max win. No RTP is published, so here's what's confirmed, how the respin feature works, and how a $50 budget holds up.
RTG released Witch's Brew on August 31, 2016, as a 5x3 slot with 25 betways, according to third-party listings.
Third-party data rates it low volatility, which usually means smaller, more frequent wins rather than rare big ones.
Its signature feature is a respin wild; free spins, wilds and scatters complete the list, with no progressive jackpot.
RTP isn't published, and a listed 25,000x max win is a ceiling, not a likely outcome.

Witch's Brew slot: the short answer
Witch's Brew is a 2016 RealTime Gaming video slot built around one idea: a wild that brings back respins. Released on August 31, 2016, according to third-party listings, it uses the familiar 5x3 grid with 25 betways and leans on potion-and-cauldron imagery rather than outright horror.
Its volatility rating is the main thing to know. Third-party data marks it low, which is less common among RTG's themed slots and makes it a different proposition from the studio's high-risk titles. RTP isn't published, so treat any precise return figure you see elsewhere with caution.
It sits in a crowded corner of the catalog. RTG has several witch-themed slots, and our slot reviews hub covers most of them, including the Bubble Bubble series and Witchy Wins.

Every value comes from third-party game databases; RTG's own pages couldn't be checked. Without an RTP, nobody can state the game's long-run cost per dollar. Our explainer on how slot RTP works shows the formula you'd use once a verified figure is available.
How the Witch's Brew respin wild works
A respin wild is a wild symbol that, when it lands, gives you one or more extra spins, usually while it stays in place. That's the general mechanic; the exact rules for Witch's Brew, such as how many respins you get and whether the wild moves or stays put, are set out in the game's paytable. Our sources list the feature but not those details.
Respin wild: a wild that triggers respins when it appears.
Respins: extra spins awarded by a feature without a new stake.
Scatter: pays or triggers features wherever it lands; see the scatter entry.
Free spins: a separate bonus round of spins at no new stake, with wins paid normally.
Respin features make a game feel busier, which fits a low-volatility design, but they don't change the house edge. Each result is still decided by a random number generator, independent of the last.
Low volatility: what it means for Witch's Brew players
Low volatility describes how a game spreads its returns: more frequent small wins and fewer large ones. In practice that tends to mean a budget lasts longer and swings less, though nothing stops a low-volatility game from having a losing session. See slot volatility explained for the fuller picture.
It can look odd that a low-volatility game lists a 25,000x max win. The two figures measure different things. Volatility describes the typical spread of results; max win is the rare ceiling. A game can have both a gentle everyday rhythm and a very occasional large payout.

Witch's Brew on a $50 budget: $0.25, $1 or $5 spins
Fifty dollars covers 200 spins at $0.25, 50 at $1 or 10 at $5, if the game's bet range includes those stakes. Expected loss equals the total wagered times the house edge. With no published RTP, here's the arithmetic at an illustrative 95% return; it's an example, not this game's figure.

Low volatility often lets a budget recycle for longer, which raises the total wagered. That's how a $50 session can turn into $200 or more of betting, and why the average cost grows with time played rather than with the starting balance. Our guide to the house edge explains this turnover effect.

Frequently asked questions
What is the RTP of the Witch's Brew slot?
No RTP is published for Witch's Brew that we could verify. Third-party databases list it as not found, and RTG's own pages couldn't be checked. Casinos may run some RTG games at different settings, so any figure should come with a source. Our what is RTP page explains how the percentage translates into long-run cost.
Is Witch's Brew a low volatility slot?
Yes, third-party data rates Witch's Brew as low volatility. That usually means smaller, more frequent wins and narrower swings, so a budget tends to last longer. It doesn't lower the house edge or guarantee a winning session. See what volatility is for how ratings are used and what they can't tell you.
What is a respin wild in Witch's Brew?
A respin wild is a wild symbol that awards extra spins when it lands, often staying in place during them. Third-party listings name a respin wild as Witch's Brew's main feature but don't give the exact rules, so check the paytable for how many respins you get. Our how to play slots guide explains common features like this.
What is the max win on Witch's Brew?
A third-party listing gives Witch's Brew a 25,000x maximum win. At $1 per spin that's $25,000, but it's a rare ceiling rather than a likely result, and it isn't confirmed by RTG. There's no progressive jackpot listed. Our page on what slot pays the most explains why max wins shouldn't drive your choice.
Does Witch's Brew have free spins?
Yes, third-party listings include free spins among Witch's Brew's features, alongside the respin wild. The paytable sets how the round triggers and how many spins it awards. Wins from the game's own free spins are paid as normal winnings. For bonus free spins from a casino, which carry wagering, read how free spins work.
Which RTG witch slot is best?
There's no single best, because they suit different budgets. Witch's Brew is the only one rated low volatility in third-party data, while Bubble Bubble 2 and Bubble Bubble 3 are rated high and Witchy Wins medium. None of their RTPs is verified on our pages. Try them in demo mode where offered; our what is the best RTG slot page discusses how to choose.
Can I play Witch's Brew for free?
Many RTG casinos offer demo play, but availability varies, so check the lobby. Demo credits have no cash value, so you can't win or lose money. It's a good way to see how often the respin wild appears in practice and whether the pace suits you. Our demo mode guide explains what transfers to real play.
Is Witch's Brew good for clearing a bonus?
Low volatility can stretch a bonus balance, but no slot makes a bonus profitable on average. At 30x (bonus + deposit), a $100 deposit with a $200 bonus means $9,000 of wagering, which at an illustrative 95% RTP costs $450 on average. Check that the game counts 100% toward wagering. See bonus wagering requirements for the math.
Is Witch's Brew legal in Missouri?
No, Missouri doesn't license online casinos, so there's no legal real-money option for Witch's Brew there. The state did launch legal online and retail sports betting on December 1, 2025, under the Missouri Gaming Commission, and it has 13 commercial casinos with a casino age of 21. A sweepstakes ban, HB 1251, wasn't enacted. Players in Kansas City, St. Louis and Springfield can play slots in person at licensed casinos, but offshore sites hold no Missouri license. See our Missouri online casinos page for the full legal picture.
Can I play Witch's Brew on my phone?
Yes, at casinos that carry it, through a mobile browser. AskGamblers lists Royal Ace with instant play, mobile and download versions, and third-party reviews say Planet 7 and Slot Madness both run in phone browsers without a dedicated app. Witch's Brew appears in a reported lobby list for that group of casinos, so search for it there. A low-volatility game can keep a session going for a long time, so set a time reminder on your phone as well as a budget. See the Royal Ace mobile page for details.
How much does each betway cost on Witch's Brew?
Your total stake covers all 25 betways, so each one costs 1 cent on a $0.25 spin, 4 cents on $1 and 20 cents on $5. Third-party listings call them betways without saying whether they're fixed lines or ways, so check the paytable. The split doesn't affect the long-run cost, which the unpublished RTP sets, but it explains why many small Witch's Brew wins pay less than the stake, which is common on low-volatility games. Our paylines glossary entry explains how line bets add up.
How long would a big Witch's Brew win take to withdraw from Planet 7?
Months, for a top-end win, because of the weekly cap reported by third-party reviews. Witch's Brew lists a 25,000x maximum, which is $25,000 on a $1 spin. At Planet 7's reported $2,500 weekly cap, that's ten weekly payments. AskGamblers adds a 5 to 7 day pending period and 7 to 9 days for bank transfers, with no weekend cashouts, and LCB reports delayed payments. Listed withdrawal methods are bank wire, check and Bitcoin. Read our weekly withdrawal limits guide before chasing large wins.
Do I pay tax on Witch's Brew winnings?
Yes, all gambling winnings are taxable federal income, and a low-volatility game like Witch's Brew can produce many small ones. For payments made in 2026, IRS instructions set the Form W-2G threshold for slot winnings at $2,000 or more, so most wins on this game won't trigger a form but are still income. Losses are deductible only up to winnings, and from 2026 that deduction is reported to be capped at 90% of losses; check IRS guidance. Our gambling loss deduction page explains the rule.
Is Witch's Brew better than Bubble Bubble?
It depends on how much risk you want. Witch's Brew (2016) is rated low volatility with 25 betways, a respin wild and a 25,000x listed top win, but no published RTP. Bubble Bubble, also from 2016, is rated medium volatility on 50 betways, lists a 95% RTP and offers free spins, a bonus game and expanding symbols, with a 15,000x attributes-table max win. Bubble Bubble's published RTP lets you price a session: $5 per $100 wagered. Neither has a progressive. Read our Bubble Bubble review.
Can I use the Royal Ace bonus on Witch's Brew?
Witch's Brew has no listed progressive, so it should count as a regular slot, but Royal Ace's reported terms conflict. LCB shows 200% up to $4,000 at 30x (bonus plus deposit) on slots, 60x on blackjack and video poker, and a max cashout of 10x the deposit; casino.guru shows 250% up to $2,500 plus 35 spins. Under LCB's version, a $100 deposit means $9,000 of wagering and withdrawals capped at $1,000. Low volatility may stretch the balance, but it doesn't lower the cost. See the Royal Ace welcome bonus page.
