Ice Mania Slot Machine - Play Ice Mania Slot Free

Introduction

You might shiver a bit on the three cold reels of Ice Mania, even if it is not quite an Arctic themed slot, but this five-payline slot will also warm you in the glow of nostalgia. It is inspired by classic fruit machines, complete with some retro graphics and a base game that isn’t bogged down in bonus features.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

Ice Mania not only looks like a classic slot but also a classic slot machine. It has the land-based casing and screen and buttons that you might see in any casino in Vegas, all of which light up when you win. 

As you might expect from the title, it is a little on the chilly side, with everything but the fruit in cold shades of blue and an ice cube serving as the wild. The fruit is drawn in basic graphics to maximise nostalgia. Rather than traditional beeps and whirs, there is a soundtrack in the background that wouldn’t be out of place in a lift or when holding on a phone.

Ice Mania RTP and variance

This might be an old-fashioned looking slot but it has a modern RTP of 96.09 per cent, putting it in line with plenty of other Evoplay demo slots. The variance is high, which means wins may be a little more spread out but will be a pretty decent size when they do appear. 

What makes slots fun but also a little risky is that no matter what the average results, they can always vary - and sometimes pretty wildly. For this reason, we recommend that you test the free demo version here at Slots Temple.

How to play Ice Mania

Wrap up warm in your winter coat and let’s get going:

1. You will see your bet displayed under the reels with plus and minus symbols on either side. Adjust it so that it is in line with your budget and the kind of money you can afford to risk. Alternately, click the button that looks like a stack of coins and adjust from there.
2. As part of sticking to your budget, look right to see the displays with your current balance and most recent win. Loss and single win limits will keep these figures at a satisfying level and prevent you from falling into the nasty trap of chasing losses.
3. There are two small menu buttons to the bottom left of the screen. The top button will take you straight to the game rules, where you can find out exactly how this game works and what else you need to know.
4. If you press the lower button, it will reveal a load more buttons that have been hiding up to this point. There is another link to the game rules and a button to take you directly to the paytable, where every symbol is conveniently listed with its value.
5. You can also go to the settings page with its sliding meters to adjust the sound and music volume and the standard mute. This is also the place to switch the game intro and turbo mode on and off or switch input modes to control the game with the spacebar and arrow keys.
6. The menu also has on/off toggles for sound, turbo and full screen. These are in a row, so there is no need to mess about scrolling through the pages.
7. There is only one decision left to make. You could press spin, which is the big button in the center. The reels will turn once, then you can decide whether you want to continue, change your settings or walk away.
8. Should you know you want to play for a while, or you need to pop out for a minute or just don’t want to have to keep pressing the button, you could activate autoplay using the button right next to spin.
9. Not only can you set up to 100 automatic spins in one go but also you can set it to stop if you hit a big enough single win or if your balance increases or decreases by a certain amount.
10. With all this in hand, you are ready to play in a way that is both fun and responsible.

Bet & win sizes

The bet adjustor takes you from a 0.10 minimum to a 500.00 maximum, which is a pretty impressive range and should offer something for most levels of player.

All you need to do to win is match three adjacent symbols across a payline, although this is not always as simple as it sounds. Calculate your rewards by multiplying the symbol on the paytable by the bet as follows.

• Cherries = 1x
• Lemon = 3x
• Plum = 5x
• Orange = 10x
• Grapes = 20x
• Watermelon = 50x
• 7 = 100x
• Ice cube wild = 500x

Ice Mania bonus features

If you are one of those people who thinks these new-fangled slots are far too complicated and you miss the simple days of the fruit machine, you are in luck. There are no bonus features in Ice Mania - no free spins, no multipliers, nothing. If you prefer a few extra layers in your games, you might prefer the Icy Wilds slot.

Ice Mania review: our verdict

Cool, sleek and appealing to an experienced gamer’s sense of nostalgia, Ice Mania has a lot to commend it. It is nice to take a breather from the complexity and confusion that often accompany the features in modern slots; that said, if you like your free spins, you are definitely going to want to look elsewhere.
