buyBonus of Maya - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Belatra Games slots are known for their innovation but buyBonus of Maya plays it safe with the classic elements of slots play using a combined wild/scatter symbol to unlock all features in this game in one handy icon.

Free spins come with super symbols that can fill an entire reel and these can be retriggered up to maximum 150 free spins. The wild/scatter also pays out a one-off prize depending on whether it’s completing new wins or triggering free spins.

To boost its potential further, this slot offers two risk games and the Jackpot Wheel of Fortune that players of Belatra Games slots will know from the likes of Piggy Bank. This game also plays seamlessly on any mobile or tablet device.

All in all, there’s quite a lot going on in buyBonus of Maya and we’d recommend you play a few risk free demo mode spins right here at Slots Temple.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

There are plenty of Mayan themed slots around - after all, who wouldn’t be fascinated by a bloodthirsty civilisation that made human sacrifices yet also developed the most sophisticated writing systems, astronomical calendars and art in the pre-Columbian Americas.

The richness of Mayan art and folklore is reflected in the design of this slot, with its naturalistic representations of Mayan figures and its elaborate depiction of the Mayan serpent god, Kukulkan. Even the four royals have been designed to integrate fully with the five picture symbols.

The scatter/wild symbol is represented by an intricate Mayan calendar, with its three interlocking cyclical calendars: the Long Count, the Tzolkin (divine calendar), and the Haab (civil calendar).

We’re standing outside an ancient temple of some kind, maybe the stepped pyramid that’s the game’s most rewarding symbol, and the ancient sunlit walls are covered in moss, creepers and esoteric symbols. The understated percussion-heavy soundtrack adds to the atmosphere.

RTP & Volatility

We’ve seen this medium-high volatility slot with an RTP as low as 92.61% so always check before you play at a real money casino. The volatility should appeal to most players and jackpot hunters will want to chase the Wheel of Fortune.

Bonus Features

Scatter/wild symbol

The most powerful symbol in this slot by far is the Mayan Calendar wild/scatter symbol which completes new wins and unlocks free spins.

This symbol also awards a one-off prize depending on its function:

Wild pays 10x, 100x, 500x or 5,000x your stake for 2, 3, 4 or 5 of a kind.

Scatter pays 2x, 20x or 200x for 3, 4 or 5 of a kind.

Free Spins

There are 10 free games when you land 3 or more scatters, with up to 150 free spins up for grabs if you retrigger the feature.

During free spins, any paytable symbol can transform into a super symbol that can fill the reels and pays anywhere on the reels independent of paylines.

Gamble Feature

Under the 50/50 menu, you can choose one of two risk options or turn off the gamble feature completely. You’ll have the choice of a simple red/black card pick or high/low card game to double your winnings.

Gamble features can be played up to 5 times or until the possible win exceeds 100,000 credits.

Wheel of Fortune Jackpot

At the top left of the reels is a collection meter. Fill this with 1,000 JP points to spin the jackpot wheel. The more you bet, the faster it fills.

Buy a Feature

You can buy free spins for 88 times your stake but be aware that the rewards may not cover the cost of buying the bonus feature, which is not active in demo mode.

Overall Review: Our Verdict

This isn’t the most exciting slot from Belatra, but it represents a good mix of features and a shot at the progressive jackpot. We also like the Mayana free slot from Quickspin.
