The video presentation to the New Lucha Maniacs is brilliant. Here you will see these four men in action as well as learn a few thing about the game when you play. You will be told that you can win 12,000 coins in one spin; you can pick and click free spins with amazing feature combos; and the Golden Bet adds one free spin feature. You can play this game for fun or for real money via Instant/Flash Play. You will also be able to use your Android and iOS mobile devices as well. With the Mexican theme we have seen in the other Lucha Libre Slots, this slot is developed by Yggdrasil. Are you ready to rumble?
About the Game
When the slot unfolds, you will notice the city background, with posters signifying the event as well as the people getting ready to watch these wrestlers duke it out. It looks as if this is an outdoor event as you can see the speakers on the corners at the top of the slot blaring. This, along with the lights across the top is a clear sign this is an outdoor match.
Lucha Maniacs is a 5-reel, 20-payline bonus video slot. The max coin value is 5.00 with a max bet of 100.00 per spin. To the left of the Spin Button, you will see the Golden Bet Button. If you click on this button you will have to pay 5 coins to receive one extra feature in the free spins round. Clever! We always recommend you read the pay table, and for this game there is no exception. There are 8 pages and all consists of symbols, payouts, special features, and the rules of the game.

Commentary
Although I find that the high and low symbols are not nearly high enough for payouts, you will have the advantage in accessing the many special features in this game. These will more than make up for the low payouts. I highly recommend you play Lucha Maniacs Slots at our recommended casinos.
