Lucha Maniacs Slot Review

I don't know if you ever could understand, because I couldn't, what the hell was going on in WWE wrestling. What was the appeal of over-muscled, glammed up, body oil slicked, bleach haired men bouncing off each other and off the ropes of a wrestling ring? To me, it was like those clowns at the circus that used to do that little shooting out cannons and falling on top of each other, but on steroids! Oops was I know supposed to say that? All the same acts, all the same costumes, all the same props just 200kg and 2m difference.

I think the other difference could be their paychecks! I don’t know about you but I got a feeling that it may very much the same in its difference

Lucha Maniacs brings us a Mexican wrestling fiesta. The whole thing feels wildly Mexican from its rickety reels to the very marketplace speakers type sound. You can even hear the punters having a go. This game had a very authentic feel to it from the outset. I particularly loved the feeling of the crowd surrounding the arena in a purple haze.

After testing this crazy fiasco on all devices I found that it worked a treat on my laptop, mobile phone and tablet.

Gameplay

This wrestling roundup is played on with 5 Reel and 20 Play lines with a medium volatility offer steady payouts.

The characters are basically represented by low and medium characters and symbols, with the higher symbols represented by the Lucha Maniacs Wild and the other high symbol is the Free Spin Scatter

The medium symbols are the tough looking wrestlers themselves and the lower symbols are all the card suit symbols.

The controls are embedded into the creaky arena boundary. Beneath the reels, you will find the controls Lines, Coin Value, Cash Bet, Golden Bet, Play, Auto Play, Win, and Balance. These controls are clear and easy to use even for the newest of players.

Features

The Free Symbol Scatter triggers the Free Spin round, as long as you have 3 or more of these arena symbols you can win up to 30 free spins and 3 features.

Prior to the Free Spins, you will be asked to pick 3 tickets and these determine which features come up. They include :

  • Up to two extra wilds per spin.

  • Two or four extra free spins.

  • A sticky wild in the center of reels two, three or four.

  • Two wrestlers merge into one to double the payouts for that symbol.

  • One wrestler becomes wild.

  • One wrestler appears stacked on the reels.

  • One wrestler comes with a 3x multiplier.

Unique Features

If you choose to use the Golden Bet option you will add 25% to your total bet. However, you will get an extra feature on a Free Spin.

You get the Poster Bonus by receiving just 2 of the Bonus Symbols. You then get to choose 4 posters. Prizes you can win are up to 80 coins or 7 Free Spins and 3 Features.

Maximum Win

The maximum win is 60 000 coins.

Performance

I loved this slot it was so much fun. The wrestlers are delightfully animated and the sound decidedly peasanty. The Features and Bonus rounds add a depth to this game that also heightens the player's experience. I would recommend this to wrestling fans and fun-loving gals alike.

Conclusion

This theme will appeal to a wide range of punters. The features will definitely entice dedicated punters as it makes for an interesting twist of added features. The graphics are great and the atmosphere festive. Good job Yggdrasil Games. The slot is as fun as your name.
