If you liked Hot Wheels as a child, and you have a soft spot for Monster Trucks now, then Microgaming’s Monster Wheels slot will be right up your street, as it combines the two to create an adrenaline charged, high octane gaming experience.It should be pointed out early that this isn’t the most creative or complex slot Microgaming has ever produced in terms of gameplay, but you wouldn’t expect it to be given the theme. What players who gravitate towards slots of this theme want, for the most part, is noise and action, and Monster Wheels certainly delivers that!
About the slot
A five-reel slot that offers either 128 or 288 ways to win depending on the player’s preference (the latter, obviously, will cost you more per spin) the reels stand in front of tire marks, with flames rising from the bottom corners of the screen.The reels themselves contain various colours of monster trucks being driven by, well, monsters, and the 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A symbols play the part of the lower values.The wild symbol is the Monster Wheels logo, which will substitute for anything but the scatter symbols (which is the petrol can) to help create winning combinations.
Gameplay
The petrol can scatter symbol only appears on reels one, three, and five, and if you land three in view, you will trigger a free spins feature, which you get to choose between three options.Three free spins with an 8x multiplierSix free spins with a 4x multiplierTwelve free spins with a 2x multiplierThe average pay-out is similar between these features, so which one you choose is very much down to personal taste.A simple slot, perhaps, but with lots of energy, and choices when it comes to both paylines and the free spins feature, there’s still a lot to like here.
