While it’s a slot machine with a very limited number of reels and paylines, a classic title, the game has a lot more features than you’re used to, plus graphics which are incredibly busy, with dozens of things going on at the same time on the screen. Microgaming has quite a few of these slots in their collection, titles which have better graphics than usual, but which also look very busy and confusing at first.
3 reels are used, 1 payline and quite a few features. The bonus game is the one you want to activate, as it can bring you nudges and payouts of up to $10,000, just like the base game.
Features of Mule Britannia
The features of the game are built mostly on the idea of the bonus game and on nudges. In order to get into the bonus feature, you first have to complete a trail of balloons, seven of them being part of it.
Once the feature starts, you are taken to another screen, where you find 10 levels, offering you prizes and nudges. You have to play a Hi-Lo game here, where you guess whether a number will be bigger or smaller than the one that is showing. With each correct guess you advance to the next level, but guess incorrectly a single time and you lose it all. You can collect your winnings at any point, if you want to avoid losing everything.
The rewards consist in cash prizes and in nudges to be used in the base game. The first level gives you only 1x the bet and 1 nudge, while the 10th level has 25 nudges and 1,000x the bet as the top payout.
Betting options and jackpots
Microgaming slots that have this many features generally use a single coin, and this is the case here as well. Its value is between $0.10 and $10.
The biggest payout offered gives you 1,000 coins back, so it’s worth up to $10,000. The same amount can also be won through the bonus feature.
Design and symbols
The theme is highly unusual. The action seems to take place at a seaside resort, with a Mule as the main character, which has a shield with the UK flag on it, a scepter and a golden helmet. He’s enjoying the sun, sitting on a lounge chair and eating an ice-cream. The image with the beach from the background is a bit confusing, as the paytable and the reels are placed on top of it, and they all use very similar colors and objects.
Symbols: Mule (1,000x), Sand Bucket (250x), Bird (50x), Sand Castle (20x), Ice Cream (8x), Orange (4x), Lemon (2x) and Cherry (1x).
Is It Worth Playing?
It’s got an unusual theme and design, so I’m sure plenty will want to avoid it. Fans of Britain might get a kick out of it though.
You will find Mule Britannia at any online casino which chooses to use software from Microgaming, playable either for free or for real money.
