The time gap between each Multimax installment is unusually long for such an exciting concept. MexoMax! is the third installment, excluding the more comprehensive Raptor Doublemax release. This time, the game returns to the jungle setting, similar to the MultiFly debut. The Wild symbol reveals a unique aspect of Aztec culture, not usually highlighted in online slot games.
The game features a Dropdown cascade which generates a wild and increases the reel multipliers. A large snake graphic moves up a tree on the right side of the screen, and the Golden Bet doubles your bonus round chances. In this round, the reel multipliers never reset and you can gamble for extra free spins.
The game has a potential of 10,000x, making it a welcome improvement after the underwhelming Crystal Falls Multimax. The Golden Bet feature, however, costs 25% more per spin but provides extra scatters that double your bonus round chances.
In the game, you win by landing matching symbols in clusters anywhere on the grid. Special Chest symbols can award up to 100x your stake, 7 to 11 free spins, or 4 extra wilds in the base game.
The Dropdown mechanic ensures winning symbols are removed from the grid, allowing new or existing symbols to fill the spaces. This process repeats as long as you keep winning, adding a wild symbol per dropdown and increasing the reel multiplier by +1 per drop.
The Bonus Round is activated when you land 3, 4 or 5 scatters in view, awarding 7, 9 or 11 free spins, respectively. You can gamble for more free spins, up to 18 at most. However, losing the gamble means you lose the feature.
The reel multipliers do not reset during the bonus round and non-UK players can pay 75x for 3+ scatters or 125x for 5 scatters via the Bonus Buy button.
Our testing of MexoMax! MultiMax from Yggdrasil was enjoyable, and we have recorded highlights from our test session. The game’s pace is satisfying and the symbols impact the jungle surroundings each time they land.
While the payouts are not that impressive without multiplier action, especially in the base game, the game can deliver substantial wins during the bonus round. The Chest symbols act as wild cards, delivering decent payouts and occasional bonus round triggers.
To reach the 10,000x potential, it’s necessary to involve more reels to multiply the multipliers. While we prefer Raptor Doublemax, MexoMax! is an improvement over Crystal Falls Multimax.
Other notable games in the series include MultiFly, Crystal Falls Multimax, and Raptor Doublemax, each offering unique features and different maximum winning potentials.
