Slot Monsters Slot Machine

If you are looking for an online slot game that provides you with lots of fun and little stress then Slot Monsters by Parlay is certainly one you have to try. In this 5 by 3 reel layout game, you get 20 paylines made up by symbols which feature cartoon-like monsters and their favourite, and most hated, food.

You can play from as little as 0.20 credits per spin for all the active paylines and you also get a chance at triggering the pick-to-win bonus feature. If you want to play Slot Monsters for free then this newly released slot is available as a demo version.

Much Fun to Play

It’s difficult not to fall for this engaging game which has clearly been designed with entertainment as a high priority. The monsters might be fanged but they are also fluffy and colourful and the audio comprises of separate background music and sound effects both of which are controlled through the main menu.

The music might, for some, get a little grating but the sound effects, and the gentle growl you get for a winning combination, certainly enhance the game. There is no scatter symbol in this game but you do get a Purple Monster Head Wild which expands to fill the reel when it falls into play.

Multiplier as Standard

The chances to win more real cash with Slot Monsters starts as soon as you spin the reels because the base line minimum multiplier on offer is 1x for each spin. If you get a winning combination fall into play on the reels then that multiplier is increased to 2x for the next spin and continues provided you get consecutive wins. When a non-paying combination falls into play then the multiplier returns to 1x.

The really good news is that the maximum multiplier you can achieve is 5x and that is without playing any bonus features. You also get the Purple Monster Head which is the Wild in this game and who, when he falls into play, immediately expands to fill the reel he landed in on and so increases your chances of making up those winning combinations.

Three Bonus Symbols…

You also get the chance at a bonus feature which is triggered by 3 bonus symbols landing in anywhere on the reels. When this happens then the game opens in a new window and you are faced with 5 of the fluffy headed monsters. Pick any 3 from the 5 and you will be rewarded not only with the cutest growl you have ever heard, but also coin credits which are accumulated and then added to your pot when you are returned to the base game.

A final sweetener in this game comes in the form of a jackpot which is awarded randomly and can be released at any point during gameplay. The available jackpot is always shown at the top of the reels for the duration of play.

The paytable in this game isn’t the best out there, but it isn’t the worst either and all wins are multiplied by the number of coins played. The paytable will also automatically adjust depending on the coins you are playing so you can play for high or low stakes. However, although it starts from as little as 0.04 for 3 in a row of the lower value symbols and only rises to 50 for 5 of the highest value when you are playing with 0.01 and 1 coins. The lines also pay out from either left or right.

A Very Variable RTP

If there is a catch with Slot Monsters then it has to come with the RTP. Like many of the Parlay games it has the broadest range you are likely to see and, at its lowest, comes in at a pitiful 71.90% and at its highest, comes in at a magnificent 98.10%. Now the game really does feel more like a gamble.

The variance also only comes in at low to medium however, everything considered, this should come as little surprise. Another Parlay game which offers a more stable RTP and variance is Secret Agent. This is also a 20 payline 5 by 3 reel slot but you get a medium range variance and an RTP coming in at a static 95%.

A Great Game

There can be few games out there that provide the entertainment value of Slot Monsters online video slot for such little outlay and, it has to be said, such potentially high odds if you look at the top end of the theoretical RTP. That said there is also the chance, when you look at the bottom end, that you will come off without filling your pocket with the coin credits.

But it is certainly fun to play, well designed, engaging and you also feel that the multipliers attached from the base game, together with the random jackpot on offer and the expanding wilds, are giving you great value for money. If you are an online gambler who simply loves to find a game which is fun to play and might provide you with some very good returns, then this is certainly one to try.
