Mayan Eclipse - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Mayan Eclipse is an attractively designed slots game with a Mayan theme from the team at Roxor Gaming. Roxor has a reputation for delivering smooth, polished online slots and this one is no exception. It's an extremely easy game to play because it is a fixed payline slot with no settings to adjust other than your bet per line. The free spins can be lucrative, paying out at twice the base game rate, and free spins can be re-triggered, giving you even more chances to win. If you like the smooth gameplay and striking graphics of this slots game, you should certainly take a look at some of our other Roxor Gaming free play slots.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

The Mayan theme isn't a particularly original one, but it's generally an attractive one and this game has done it well. Roxor slots are known for their appealing designs and smooth intuitive gameplay. The reels spin quickly and smoothly with no lagging or delays. The reels are set against the backdrop of a Mayan landscape and into an ornate temple, complete with intricate stone carvings. A line of animated flames running across the bottom of the reels is a nice additional touch. The symbols don't become animated when they're part of a win, something that a lot of other developers are introducing to their slots these days. Nonetheless, it's certainly a visually appealing game.

The soundtrack complements the game style well and features Mayan music with additional sound effects when a win is achieved. For a similar feel and theme, we also have a selection of fantastic Aztec themed slots here at Slots Temple.

How to Play Mayan Eclipse

This is one of the easier slots to play, thanks to its fixed paylines. All you need to do is adjust the bet per line to a figure you're happy with. Here are step-by-step instructions to get you going.

1. Launch the game and familiarise yourself with the rules and payouts if necessary.
2 Locate the coin size display at the bottom of the reels. Use the plus and minus buttons on either side of the display to adjust the coin size.
3. Keep an eye on the total bet size, displayed just underneath the coin size display. Set the bet to your desired size.
4. Hit the spin button and you're off!

The game has 25 fixed paylines so any bet you place will be a multiple of 25. The smallest bet is therefore 25x1, or 25 coins (although different websites might have different minimum bet sizes for the same game). There is no autoplay function in this slots game, so you'll have to manually press the spin button every time you play.

Bonus Features

Mayan Eclipse has a fantastic free spins bonus game, which awards you 10-20 free spins initially and these can be re-triggered during the free spins round. Here's everything you need to know about the free spins bonus.

Mayan Eclipse Free Spins

In order to trigger the free spins bonus, you'll need to land the two bonus symbols on the reels. These symbols are the Sun God and the Moon Goddess. The Sun God can only appear on reel 1, while the Moon Goddess only appears on reel 5. You need both of those symbols to land during the same spin. When this happens, you'll be awarded between 10 and 20 free spins. Every free spin is subjected to a 2x multiplier, meaning some big wins are possible!

The free spins can be re-triggered when the Sun God and Moon Goddess both land again during the bonus round. This is a nice touch as lots of this type of slot don't allow you to re-trigger free spins.

Our Verdict

While this is an attractive and enjoyable slots game from Roxor, it would benefit from a couple more special features. It can get a little dull playing the base game if you hit lots of dead spins one after another. The free spins round can indeed be very lucrative, but this is obviously not guaranteed. If you're looking for something with a similar theme but more special features, Temple of Treasure Megaways might be up your street.
