Monster Mania

If all monsters looked like these funny creatures, kids wouldn't be so scared of them! Monster Mania is a no-download, online slot machine game from Microgaming that will make you smile at the hilarious faces these critters make. Oh, and there's plenty of gaming action, too! It's definitely worth your time.

The game has five reels and three rows, and there are nine pay lines. All wins pay left to right except scatters, which pay in any direction. So it's a pretty simple gameplay setup that won't confuse newer players. It should be noted, though, that with the big, bold graphics and the multicolored pay line buttons, the screen can be a little busy. So while Monster Mania is optimized for computers, tablets and mobile devices, you may want to take advantage of a bigger screen.

The minimum bet is .25 credits, and the maximum bet is 18 credits per spin. As always, you can adjust your settings and betting parameters with the comprehensive dashboard offered by Microgaming. You can also see the full pay table at a glance.

Icons include fruits (apple, lemon, watermelon, grapes and bananas), plus five different kinds of monsters. The monster with the word WILD in his mouth is the wild card, and he can appear on reels two, three and four, substituting for anything you need to make a win, except scatters.

A monster who is mostly brain is the scatter icon. Get at least three of this smart monster and win up to 100 free spins. Scatter wins are added to pay line wins, and scatter wins are multiplied by the number of credits you've set.
