What features are available in the slot of Mighty Munching Melons?

The features of this slot game are Bonus Game, Ante Bet, and Feature Buy.

Bonus Game

This feature can be triggered by landing at least 3 Scatter Symbols anywhere on the reels during the Base Game, awarding you 3 respins at the start. During this feature, only Money, blanks, Melon, and Melon Ghost Symbols can land on the reels. Every time a Money Symbol lands on the reels, it’s locked in position for the remaining feature and reset the respins to 3. 

The following special symbols can land during this feature:

Money Symbol = This symbol type carries values ranging from 0.1X, 0.25X, 0.5X, 1X, 2.5X, 5X, 10X, 25X, 50X, 100X, 250X, to 500X the bet.

Melon Symbol = This symbol type is a collector, and whenever it lands on the reels, it moves in a random direction until it wraps around the edges of the screen and returns to its original position. As it moves, the Melon Symbol collects all the values of the Money Symbol in its path, adding the value to the total win. The first Melon Symbol that lands has a multiplier of 1X, but each new Melon Symbol that lands has a multiplier value increased by 1X. This multiplier is applied to all collected Money Symbol.

If a Melon Symbol collects a Melon Ghost Symbol, it grows in size to 2X2 or 3X3, which means it can collect more Money Symbols in its path. The oversized Melon Symbol only moves horizontally around the edge of the screen before returning to where it collects the Melon Ghost Symbol.

This symbol type can randomly move up and down towards the right edge of the screen, collecting all Money Symbols before returning to the Melon Ghost Symbol position. 

Melon Ghost Symbol = When this symbol type lands on the reels, it randomly changes its position after every spin.

During the spins, the capacity of respins can randomly increase from 3 to 4 till the end of the feature. When no more respins are left, or the screen is filled with symbols, a 3X3 Melon Symbol can appear and collect all symbols on the screen, but without a multiplier value. If the grid is filled with symbols when this 3X3 Melon Symbol appears, the respins are reset back to 3 again after collection, and the feature continues.

The feature ends when no more respins remain, and the Money Symbol on the screen is awarded before returning to the Base Game.

Ante Bet

You trigger the Ante Bet at the extra cost of 50% of the current bet. When this feature has been activated, the chances of triggering Bonus Game increase.

Feature Buy

If you want to take advantage of the Bonus Game immediately, you can use the feature buy option. You pay 100X to activate the Bonus Game with an RTP of 96.05%. 

Mighty Munching Melons Slot Conclusion

This game provides an uncomplicated experience among watermelons and other familiar fruit symbols. The background music provides a classic slot vibe, with a retro tune that gets even more up-tempo during the Bonus Game. When testing this game, we got a bit confused about the design because it reminded us of the inside of an airship, but no, it was a greenhouse, growing massive melons.

Regarding the stats, the RTP, by default, is an acceptable number about the industry average. A max win of 3000X doesn’t get us too excited, nor does the base hit frequency, but the max hit frequency average of 1 in 695,643 spins was impressive. So, is it all uninspiring and uneventful, you may ask? Well, to be perfectly honest, this game was rather basic, but it had some highlights worth mentioning. The Base Game has some high-value symbols awarding up to 1000X for 5 of a kind, but otherwise, it is too basic for our liking. Landing 3 or more Scatter Symbols will trigger the Bonus Game, a Hold & Win feature we previously saw in games like Little Gem, but in Mighty Munching Melons, the Money Symbols carry higher values from 0.1X to 500X. It feels like we have seen this type of Bonus Game many times, but we enjoyed the Melon Symbol in this feature, which has the characteristics and looks of a Pac-Man, and every time it lands, it eats (collects) Money Symbols and collects their values. The Melon Symbol can carry a multiplier that increases by 1X every time it lands, which creates a much-needed thrill at the later stages of the spins when the value of the multiplier has reached a lucrative value.

The Melon Symbol can also increase in size up to 3X3, which covers more of the grid and thereby collects more Money Symbol. We wish the provider had incorporated the Melon Symbol into the Base Game because it would elevate the gaming experience, considering it is the single most entertaining feature of this game. To be frank, we were expecting a better game than this from this provider, but maybe our expectations were too high considering previous games like Fish Eye and Kingdom of The Dead.

Indeed, this game provider daringly explores a wide range of ideas, for better or worse, often leading to remarkable success, as witnessed in the acclaimed Big Bass series. However, this particular and whimsically arranged slot evoked a bittersweet sensation, leaving us in a melancholy state, as confused as Homer’s concept of that word.

Mighty Munching Melons is a slot with a familiar fruit theme offering a Hold & Win feature where the Melon Symbol is an appreciated highlight!
