It's Magic slot graphics. All IGT free slots feature phenomenal graphics, but this game is even more good-looking than most The reels are set against a mystical night-time scene that depicts a castle in the words, with magical plants springing up all around and tiny lights dancing in the distance. Following in everyone else’s footsteps, in January 2019, IGT released its own magic themed video slot. This one is called It’s Magic and though it may not be completely original, it’s very well done. The bottom line is that the game does have a big entertainment value. A Dark Background and Cartoon-Like Graphics.

'Magic' is a 1974 song by Scottish pop rock band Pilot, and was the first hit single for the group. It was written by band members Billy Lyall and David Paton for their debut album, From the Album of the Same Name.
It charted most successfully in Canada, where it topped the RPM national singles chart on 19 July 1975,[2] and received a gold certification.[3] It climbed as far as number 11 on the UK Singles Chart and reached number five during the summer of 1975 in the US on the Billboard Hot 100.
According to Paton, the song is inspired by the sunrise on Blackford Hill in Edinburgh.[4] In a 2012 interview with Hotdisc Television, Paton also stated that at the time, his wife said she'd 'never seen a daybreak,' which also inspired the song.[5]

Sally Boyden version[edit]
'Magic' was covered by Sally Boyden on her 1976 album The Littlest Australian.[25] The song was sampled by Girl Talk on his 2006 release Night Ripper on the track 'Summer Smoke'. The song is also heavily sampled in a song titled 'It's Magic' by rap artist J.R. Writer. It was then sampled again by rapper Flo Rida in 2009. The alternative rock band Barenaked Ladies has been known to sometimes close live shows by playing the song as part of a medley.[26] It has also been covered by Patrick Juvet.[27]
Usage in other media[edit]
The song was included in the films Happy Gilmore (1996), Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005), The Magic Roundabout (2005), and Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules (2011), and the video game Sleeping Dogs (2012). It was also heard in a humorous deleted scene from the film Guardians of the Galaxy. Circa 1999, the tune was used in AT&T commercials to promote their '00 Service,' but the chorus was modified to sing only two 'oh's.' The song is prominently featured in commercials for the prescription medication Ozempic, with the line 'It's magic' changed to 'Ozempic.'[28]
