Mayan Fortunes: Bingo Bounty Slot Review

According to the infinite wisdom of the Internet, Sir Isaac Newton’s tooth 🦷 was sold for £730 in 1816 and set in a ring by its new owner. I’m sure that made him a popular dinner guest. If we adjust the price to today’s rates, the tooth would’ve been sold for a staggering $62,000. 💰

I didn’t know there was money to be made in selling teeth; I prefer to sink my chompers into easy money. The question before us is: will Mayan Fortunes: Bingo Bounty slot from Netgame yield its treasures easily, or will it take some doing? 🤷‍♂️ Let’s find out.

Gameplay

Today seems to be a good day for games that are a little different from the norm. In this instance, we have a 5x5 grid forming the base for a Mayan structure. Above it, though, is another grid (I’ll get into this in the Features section) and some Jackpots.

The Mini pays 10x, the Minor pays 25x, the Maxi pays 50x, the Major pays 500x, and the Grand Jackpot pays 2,000x your bet.

The Wild symbol replaces all non-special ones. As for the Wheel, Bingo, and Bonus symbols, the purposes of these will be revealed as we unravel this game’s inner workings.

There are 3,125 winning ways here, and the game’s RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots. RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate. is 96.09%, while the volatility rate is medium. The max multiplier is 5,000x but the potential payout is an astonishing $300,000. The only currency you can’t play with is Litecoin.

Features

BINGO BONUS GAME:

Landing Bingo symbols on the bottom grid is what you need to look out for. Each time this happens, their cash value is transferred to the same position on the top grid. These values could be 0.5x, 1x to 8x, or 10x. Or they can contain a Jackpot value.

If, as a result of this action, you fill five positions in a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line, you’ll be awarded what’s known as a Bingo Line.

WHEEL FEATURE:

Complete a Bingo Line with a Wheel symbol and you’ll initiate the Wheel feature (you’ll get a single spin of the Wheel). The Wheel awards a 10x, 15x, or 20x multiplier, or one of the Jackpots.

FREE SPINS:

Scoring 3, 4, or 5 Bonus symbols results in 8, 16, or 24 spins. Land an additional 3, 4, or 5 Bonus symbols for 4 more spins. The only “special” feature of the round is that the chances of collecting Bingo Lines are higher.

Performance

I have nothing negative to report in terms of the game’s performance.

Maximum Win

It’ll take a combination of a $60 max bet (the smallest bet is $0.20) and the 5,000x max multiplier to get your hands on the $300,000 top prize.

Conclusion

Mayan Fortunes: Bingo Bounty slot gets a thumbs up from me for its uniqueness, but is that enough? We’re not here to see how creative studios can get; we’re after the offered moolah, so how easy is it to get our hands on some of the 300k here?

The way things usually play out – if my testing is anything to go by – is that at some point you’ll trigger the Wheel Feature. And invariably, you’ll score a lower multiplier.

Free Spins take a lot more effort, it seems, but all that does is give you a better chance at scoring the Bingo Line. I say “all it does” but you can make a tidy profit if you score a nice multiplier.

So, in summary, the money-making potential is there but I reckon it’ll be more along the lines of some small to average scratch for the most part, rather than shitloads of skrilla.

A very similar game from the studio is Wild Buffalo Fortune Wheel Bonus Buy slot. The max multiplier is 4,000x, the top prize is $240,000, and the volatility rate is medium. It also offers the Fortune Wheel with Jackpots up to 3,000x and Free Spins. Plus, there’s a Buy Bonus.
