Beetle Mania Deluxe Slot Review 2024

Beetle Mania Deluxe

Novomatic's Beetle Mania Deluxe offers you a combination of 5 reels and 10 paylines. In this game, the top jackpot has a maximum value of $50,000 and the features include free spins, scatters and wilds to help you win the big money this slot offers.

The game is the second Beetle Mania title offered by this developer and this one seems just like a better polished game with not to many improvements otherwise. Most of the symbols are actually the same ones, just with a better design. One other difference is the use of 10 paylines instead of the original 9. While the original game was a decent looker but a bit dated, this variant looks modern and it's a pleasure to play on it. In this game the background image is a studio with various musical instruments, while the reels are yellow and they have well designed 3D symbols on them. Among these symbols you will find the same playing cards like in the original version, plus the butterfly, the snail, the bee, the worm and the beetle. The musical note is the final piece of the puzzle.

The coin denominations usable in this game start at $0.04 and they can go up to $10, which is also the line bet. The bets go up to $100 as a result, when all 10 lines are selected. The payouts go up to 5000 coins, or $50,000.

The features of the game are pretty much the same ones as in the original game. The bee was kept the wild symbol and besides substituting for the various other symbols in the game (except for the scatter and the beetle) it also awards the top jackpot.

As it was the case before, the payouts start at 2 symbols for the character symbols and at 3 symbols for the card icons.

The musical note is the scatter, as before, and it will award 10 games for free to the player when 3+ symbols appear and they are scattered but starting from the left side and going towards the right. While the free games are being used if you get the beetle symbol on the reel from the middle you will get to double the payouts from the free games (and they can get quite big if you're lucky).

You might want to give this game a chance instead of its predecessor if you enjoy modern graphics, but other than that it's difficult to spot the differences between them.
