Mad Muertos Slot Review

Mad Muertos is a visually striking slot with a huge max winning potential. If that’s not enough to get you going and spin those reels, then stay on this page and read all about Mad Muertos and what you can get from playing this slot. As always, Pragmatic Play does not disappoint.

Theme

If you’ve ever celebrated Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) or been to a celebration or two, you know what to expect. If not, then Mad Muertos can definitely bring the whole experience a bit closer. And we’ll try to do that as well—Day of the Dead is a Mexican and Latin American festival in which people recall the departed and share the memories they had with them. It is marked by various activities, including lively processions, traditional dress, and altar building, most of which are highlighted through the symbols and visuals. You’ll see all of that and more translated to the screen through lively animations and colorful graphics.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

Pragmatic Play’s Mad Muertos focuses on the Mexican and Hispanic-themed symbols and musical instruments that make the game come alive. Although not a groundbreaking theme, as you can see it among many online games, it’s still worth your time.

 

The provider used a traditional Mexican soundtrack in the slot, creating a festive atmosphere with lively folk tunes. The soundtrack maintains the cultural vibrancy and does not feel too distracting while you spin the reels.

 

I was drawn in by the detailed and colorful symbols while playing, especially the moving banner at the top of the grid and the dancing animated people celebrating on the sides of the grid. It all adds to the slot’s theme and enhances the overall experience.

RTP, Payout and Volatility

The default RTP of Mad Muertos is 96.53%, which is slightly above the industry norm. And there are no varying RTPs, meaning online casinos don’t get to choose which one they’ll present to you. This means you’ll get €96.53 for every €100 invested. The maximum winning potential is set at 25,000x your bet, without a progressive jackpot.

 

Mad Muertos is a highly volatile game, meaning you can expect scarce wins but when they do happen, they’re quite significant. This is quite good news for high rollers, especially because the max bet is set at €300. That doesn’t mean players on a budget will be disappointed, as the minimum bet is €0.20, which is low enough for even newbies.

Gameplay

This online slot rewards you with a win when 8 matching symbols land at any random place on the grid. High-paying symbols are skeleton faces of different colors. Other symbols that you see on the screen are low paying, but nonetheless important for the gameplay. The scatter is present on all reels and pays on any position.

Features

Mad Muertos has a grid-style layout with tumbling mechanics, multipliers, and a free spins bonus round. I won’t consider the features groundbreaking, but at the same time, they add to the narrative and imagery used to create a fun gaming experience.

 

Tumbling Mechanics  

The tumble feature is what you should look for, followed by the multiplier, especially because the maximum capability is 20,000x the actual bet size.

 

Tumbling mechanics work in a straightforward way. After a spin ends, the winning combinations are added to your account. At this point, all winning symbols vanish, and the rest of the symbols fall to the bottom. New icons replace the empty positions to create space for a new round.

 

This feature keeps on going until there are no more winning combinations because of it. The wins are added to your balance after all of the tumbles are complete.

 

Free Spins  

The scatters trigger free spins. But you need to hit at least four of them to get 10 free spins. The game takes an even more exciting turn during the free spins round as you can win more free spins by landing more scatters.

 

Multipliers  

When you see a star with a 1,000x sign, you’ve come across the multiplier symbol. It only appears during the free spins round and when it hits, the symbol can take on a value:

• 2x
• 3x
• 4x
• 5x
• 6x
• 8x
• 10x
• 12x
• 15x
• 20x
• 25x
• 50x
• 100x
• 1,000x

When the tumbling sequence ends, the values of all visible multipliers are added. Further, the total win of this sequence is multiplied by the final value.

 

Bonus Buy  

You can swiftly activate free spins in the base game by buying it. Pay 100x the total bet to trigger four scatters on the triggering spin. Pay 500x the total bet to activate super free spins. In this case, all the multiplier icons will have a minimum multiplier of 20x.

 

Ante Bet 

You can choose the bet multiplier and the 25x one will double the probability of activating free spins. A bet multiplier of 20x keeps the gameplay the same as before, meaning it doesn’t really add value.
