Mad Hatters is a Microgaming powered online slot game that is based on the well-known character of the same name who Alice meets in her Wonderland adventures. The Mad Hatters tea party is a famous scene from the Lewis Carroll novel and all aspects of the online slot game from visuals to bonus features centre on the theme.
The online slot features wilds; scatter symbols; two bonus features and a 20 000 coin jackpot prize for the main game.
Mad Hatters Settings and Game Play
Mad Hatters is a five reel online slot with a total of thirty pay lines. Up to ten coins may be placed on each of the pay lines in values of 0.01; 0.02; 0.05; 0.10 or 0.25. There is a bet max feature to automatically place the maximum bet amount.
Most of the settings of the game are adjustable such as the sound effects; animations; speed of the reels; auto play; the option to spin the reels 5x or 10x only and more. The slot has quick spin access and a gamble feature which may be set to play automatically after a winning spin.
The Mad Hatters Slot Reels and Symbols
The Mad Hatters slot reels in online gambling are rather large and leave no room for background images but the symbols relate to the theme. The symbols worth lower values include a tea cup; a tea pot; a cupcake; a slice of cake and ice cream. The higher valued symbols are the three hat wearing characters.
The featured symbols include a wild which is represented by the red mad hat. The hat substitutes the other regular paying symbols when a winning combination is possible but if it appears on the third reel it becomes an expanding wild. As an expanding wild the symbol covers the entire reel to offer further winning opportunities.
Two different scatter symbols are present in this slot game. They are the cuckoo clock and the rabbit in a hat symbols. Both symbols give entry into their respective bonus game features but only the white rabbit in a hat symbol pays out scatter wins.
The Mad Hatters Bonus Features
The two Mad Hatters slot bonus game features are the cuckoo bonus game and the free spins round. It takes the cuckoo clock symbol to land three, four or five times simultaneously in any spot on the reels to activate the cuckoo bonus game. The screen will display a number of cuckoo clocks which need to be selected to reveal coin prizes. One, two or three clocks can be picked depending on whether three, four or five cuckoo clock symbols activated the game. More than 11 000 coins can possibly be won in this bonus feature.
The Mad Hatters free spins bonus round is triggered when three or more of the white rabbit in a hat symbols land anywhere on the reels. Three rabbits trigger 10 free spins, four rabbits trigger 25 free spins and five rabbits trigger 50 free spins. One of the character symbols can be selected to act as an extra expanding wild on the third reel and all free spin wins are doubled. The top prize in the free spins bonus round is 400 000 coins or more.
