Mayan Moola Slot
With the ancient Mayan civilisation being famous for their advancements in mathematics and astronomy, it should come as no surprise that there’s a fortune waiting in the stars for players on Probability Gaming’s Mayan Moola slot.
A relatively new title from the studio, Mayan Moola is a 5 reel, 100 payline game that has been fully optimised for mobile play. Available in HD across a wide range of portable devices, the slot can be played from as little as £0.01 per spin yet offers a healthy regular jackpot of 3,000x your bet per line.
Ancient Treasures
Featuring a grand total of 100 adjustable paylines, Mayan Moola is an incredibly flexible title that gives players a fair degree of control over the level of their investment. With line bets starting at £0.01 and ranging up to £1, the game can be played for up to £100 a spin with all paylines enabled.
As such, the game offers more incentive for better-staked players than some of Probability Gaming’s other titles (the majority of which are capped at £10 per turn), but still allows players to use all 100 paylines for just £1 a spin should their bankroll not stretch that far. This means the slot caters for a wide variety of players and enables even the more risk-averse customers to enjoy multiple payouts.
Whatever stakes they choose to spin for, players will have their sights set on a maximum regular jackpot of 1,500x their bet per line which jumps to 3,000x during the free spins bonus feature, while there are also a host of smaller payouts available in Mayan Moola for any three-of-a-kind combo.
Temple Music
In terms of visuals, Mayan Moola looks incredibly slick thanks to its HD graphics and ultra-modern feel. The game’s background features a lush tropical jungle dotted with Mayan temples, while the reels themselves are cast in stone and feature a full set of unique icons designed solely for the slot.
These custom-drawn symbols include coins, traditional Mayan headdresses and a series of stone effigies of various animal spirits, with fish, birds, dragons and tigers all making up the game’s higher-value icons. There is also a Mayan warrior symbol that acts as the game’s substitute wild, while a calendar icon is a scatter symbol that can be used to trigger free spins when three or more appear.
Audio-wise, the game remains fairly basic but does include some nice sound effects, with ambient jungle noises setting the tone during base game play. Overall, this makes Mayan Moola a fairly engaging slot for players, although a few more animations would certainly improve the experience.
Astronomical Action
Like a lot of Probability Gaming titles, Mayan Moola features just one bonus round – and sadly it is virtually identical to the one included in most of the studio’s other games. Activated whenever three or more calendar scatter symbols appear, players will then be awarded with a number of free spins.
With the amount of free spins they receive being dictated by the number of calendar symbols that appear across the five reels, players will pick up 6, 8 or 10 bonus games for 3, 4 or 5 scatters respectively. When the free spins begin, all winning combinations will be subject to a 2x multiplier, which is what gives the game its maximum 3,000x jackpot and helps boost the RTP stat to 91.79%.
Although this number is perhaps not the highest we’ve seen from a Probability Gaming slot, the presence of up to 100 active paylines does make the free spins feature quite lucrative, as more often than not each game will yield at least one prize amount. With all of these wins being doubled, players can walk away with a tidy return from their bonus games, easing the strain on their bankroll.
Welcome to the Jungle
Despite being a pretty good game when taken on its own merits, the problem with Mayan Moola is that it doesn’t do anything particularly different from other Probability Gaming slots. True, the 100 adjustable paylines offer more flexibility than some of the studio’s similar games, but in terms of features it pretty much sticks to the script. This, coupled with a lower RTP stat and lower maximum jackpot than other Probability titles means it is a game that offers little beyond its fancy graphics.
