The Mayan Rush slot is a five reels and five rows game, with between 45 and 3125 expandable pay ways. However, to some extent, the slot interface looks somewhat clogged with various decorations and not-very-articulated buttons. But the gaming process should be similar to all other slot machines; just select a suitable stake and spin the reels. Below the reels, you’ll spot Plus and Minus buttons adjacent to the “Bet” field. Tap on either of the buttons to adjust the coin values between €0.25 and €25. Furthermore, you can activate “Super Stake”. As a result, your total bet amount will double to up to €50 per spin.
You can find the “Spin” functionality from the grid’s right and start each game based on the selected stake. However, the second bottom-most “Autoplay” setting from the reels’ left will enable you to choose unlimited continuous but personalized spins. Just above it is the Turbo-Spin option that allows you to turn the function on or off. When set to on, the reels will spin faster than the normal spins.
For the record, you’ll come across ten payout symbols in Mayan Rush. The aim is to score combinations worth three or more icons of a kind on consecutive reels and from left to right. However, only the highest possible winning combination per active payline will payout, with wins in different coinciding ways adding together.
Instead of the common playing card symbols, this video title uses various mysterious animal emblems for its lowest tier. As such, the blue turtles, orange, purple, and red birds, blue spiders, and marron bats make the lowest-paying icons. Landing three to five of each will see you receive between 0.24 and 1.6x the total bet. Then, the two Mayan carvings will both produce the mid-payouts worth 1 to 10x the current wager. Finally, two explorers looking like Indiana Jones and his beautiful assistant will deliver the maximum regular payouts of up to 20x your stake!
There are no wilds or scatters in the Mayan Rush slot. However, you’ll still reap from various exciting features and modes that we’ll discuss more in the following section.
The first feature is the Super Stake. Activating it can double your bet to receive extra chances of managing insanely lucrative combinations. You can activate the mode on a random losing spin, whereby you’ll receive three automatic re-spins. At the start of the feature, you'll receive a coin in the middle of the center reel. The coin symbol will remove any blockers that lie above or below it. When all blockers disappear, then all coin values will multiply by x2. However, if 25 coin symbols are in view, then the values multiply by x5. Furthermore, whenever one or more coins land on the reels after a re-spin, the number resets to three re-spins.
Even though there are no Mayan Rush free spins, punters can also reap heavily from the Rush Mode. It starts automatically when all blockers disappear from the base game. In this mode, any winning icons will assign (based on their color) to either the following totems:
Totems begin at x2 for the Multiplier and one life. Every winning symbol adds to the associated totem, with five collected symbols increasing the totem value. A winning spin adds all winning symbols to the totems, while a losing spin deducts one from the life meter.
Finally, the gamble feature will go live after every win during the base game. In this round, players can correctly guess the color or suit of a card to double or quadruple their winnings.
Punters should expect a Mayan Rush RTP of 96.05%, which is quite decent. But, with extremely high volatility, you should anticipate very hot or cold gameplay. So, ensure you take note of your bankroll and limit risk exposure. Even so, only high roller players will enjoy the betting limits in this game.
