Game Features

Any slot machine is simple to use. Almost all slot machines have the features described below.

The reels determine the outcome of a game. Each reel spins separately and comes to a stop in turn. If the symbols line up along an enabled payline then you win.

If, when the reels stop spinning, a valid combination of symbols is lined up it will be highlighted and the payout schedule will light up the winning combination.

The Payout Schedule tells you what combinations of reel symbols are valid winning combinations and what they pay out. When you get a winning payout the number next to the winning combination will be highlighted on your screen.

The Spin button starts a game on the slot machine. You must have enough credits to meet your current betting level to start the game.

The Bet One and Bet Max buttons adjust the size of your next wager. The Bet Max button will automatically increase the number of coins bet to the maximum for the slot machine and spin the reels. If you do not have enough credits to place the bet you will not be allowed to spin.

The Coin Size menu allows you to set the size of the coins that you want to play with.

Playing the Game

Playing a game at a slot machine is easy.

Decide on the size of the coin you want to bet with the Increase and Decrease buttons. These are represented by either a (+) and (-) symbol, or Up and Down arrows.

Use the Bet One button to increase the number of coins you are about to wager by one. If you are already wagering the maximum number of coins clicking the Bet One button again will re-set the number of coins to one.

Use the Bet Max button if you intend to wager the maximum number of coins for the slot machine on the next spin. If you do not have enough credits to place the bet, you will not be allowed to spin.

Once you have selected your wager, start the game by clicking the Spin button.

Payout Schedule

The winnings paid out on the slot machine are dependent on the symbols showing on the enabled paylines once the reels have come to a stop. The table below summarizes the payout schedule. You can view the Payout Schedule in the game by clicking on the labeled areas on the graphic of the game.

All symbols of a winning combination must be adjacent to each other and one of the symbols must be in the left most reel. So, a three symbol combination on the second, third, fourth and fifth slot reels does not pay out.

For example, if you get three Snake symbols next to each other in reels 1, 2 and 3 you will be paid out. If the symbols are distributed through reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 you will not be paid out.

For information on the layout of the paylines, please read the section called The Paylines.

The table below summarizes the payout schedule for the combination of symbols appearing on the enabled paylines.
These figures refer to the number of COINS that you will win. The number of credits won will depend on the coin size chosen.

Symbols on enabled Paylines

Symbols on enabled Paylines

Only the highest paying combination on a payline will pay out. For example, if three Grapes symbols appear on an enabled payline with two Horns symbols, you will only receive the payout for the two Horns symbols.

Note:
If a winning combination appears on a payline that you have not enabled, you will not receive any payout for that combination.

Malfunctions void all plays and pays.

Monster Mania Symbols

There are several important symbols in Monster Mania. These are the Special Symbols, The Wild Symbol.

The Wild Symbol can substitute for all other symbols except the Scatter Symbol. This means it helps complete winning combinations.

Note:
The Wild Symbol can only appear in reels 2, 3 and 4.

The Scatter Symbol

This symbol does not need to appear in a line on an enabled payline to win, but can be scattered anywhere on the five reels. Scatter wins are multiplied by the total number of credits bet. If you receive a scatter win and a normal winning combination on a payline, you are paid the scatter amount plus the payout amount for the normal winning combination.

Regular Symbols

Tongue Gecko, Horns, EyeBall, Snake, Apple, Orange, Melon, Grapes, Bananas.

The Paylines

The game Monster Mania has nine different paylines to form winning combinations. For quick reference these paylines have been color coded.

Each payline must be individually enabled for you to receive the payout for it.

1. Coin enables the first payline. This is a yellow payline that runs horizontally along the center of the reels.
2. Coins enable the second payline. This is a dark green payline that runs horizontally along the top of the reels.
3. Coins enable the third payline. This is a lime green payline that runs horizontally along the bottom of the reels.
4. Coins enable the fourth payline. This is a bent turquoise payline that runs from the top corners to the bottom symbol on the center reel.
5. Coins enable the fifth payline. This is a bent purple payline that runs from the bottom corners to the top symbol on the center reel.
6. Coins enable the sixth payline. This is a dark blue payline that runs from the top corner of reel 1, across to reel 2, down to the center of reel 3, up to reel 4 and then across to reel 5.
7. Coins enable the seventh payline. This is a pink payline that runs from the bottom corner of reel 1, across to reel 2, up to the center of reel 3, down to reel 4 and then across to reel 5.
8. Coins enable the eighth payline. This is a orange payline that runs from the top corner of reel 1, across to reel 2, down to the center of reel 3, down to reel 4 and then across to reel 5.
