It was about time that the Taiwan-based software Studio committed a video slot to the iconic MA practice, pride and glory for every Thai person. Also called the “art of 8 limbs” (hands/elbows/knees and shins), this fighting activity has similar rules to boxing: using gloves, 5 rounds, 3 minutes each, a 6 m long ring – framed by 4 elastic ropes with 2 opposite corners – red and blue, but the main difference between the 2 sports is that boxing is combat with only fists.
The design and the symbols, while shallow, are indeed tailored to the kickboxing subject. Rather than contemporary/impressive graphics, KA Gaming’s creation has a clumsy, old fashion visual style. But don’t let the slot’s look to discourage you. This is a 50-liner with many positive characteristics:
- Medium Volatility (average risk)
- High hit frequency of 37%
- RTP of 96.35%
- Ample betting zone (up to 250 CAD)
- Sufficient maximum potential of 2500x total bet in a single spin (proportional to the variance)
- Only 2 special features – but evenly distributed 1 in the base and 1 in the Bonus
For a change, Multipliers are assigned to the base game. As a result, significant prizes can be won at any point in Muay Thai slot. Alas, during the main spins in the case of plural Wild Multipliers (up to x5) falling on 1 payline, the multiplying ratio only counts once (so no summing or multiplying will occur). And in the Bonus round, the Symbol Transformation delivers a second chance to win (without Re-spin), which is an interesting and often very profitable feature.
All taken into account, except for the mediocre appearance, we are positive about the performance of Muay Thai slot. Although all players can quickly see the worthiness of this machine, it is not fit for low rollers and bonus hunters (the min bet is 50 cents). We recommend this combat slot to the spinners opening their session with solid starting capital and who can bet high, as the machine combines several favourable conditions: not very edgy gameplay with high hit rate and RTP, plus equally advantageous features in both the base and the Bonus.
Time to work out which side you are on – the Blue or the Red fighter. Use the DEMO on our page to familiarize yourself with the rules of the Muay Thai online slot and later play for real at one of our affiliated casinos.
Bonus Features of Muay Thai slot
- Wilds – The 2 opponents are the Wild elements in the game, coming during base and Bonus spins. The Blue fighter appears on reels 1/2/3, and the Red fighter can be seen on reels 4/5. Wilds can stand for missing regular icons in pay combinations or form their own winning formations. They are worth respectively 40x/4x/1x for 5/4/3OAK on a payline. Besides, they have the following powers:
- In the Bonus round – There are no Wild Multipliers, but a Symbol Transformation function applies. Whenever the punch bag lands on the reels the machine will automatically:
- In the base game – Each time Wild acts as a substitution, the corresponding win will be endowed with a Multiplier x1/x2/x3/x4x/x5. Unfortunately, if plural Wilds land during 1 spin and in 1 payline, the multiplying factor matters just once (so no adding or Multiplying will happen).
A) Pay the current win from the regular paylines (if any), and
B) Without additional re-spin all punch bags will transform to Wilds (Blue or Red – depending on the reel) and the slot will pay once more.
- Scatters & Free Spins – The game logo is the Scatter on the ring. It pays 20x/5x/2x for combinations of 5/4/3OAK landing anywhere on the field. The same Scatter groups launch a Bonus, consisting of 25/15/10 rounds. During the FS the Symbol transformation (punchbag shifting to Wild feature) giving a second chance win is active. However, no re-trigger is possible. Within the Bonus, if 3 and more Scatters land on the grid, only the value will be paid.
