About Mad Hatters
You won’t need to be a rocket scientist to work out the theme of Microgaming’s Mad Hatters slot. Naturally, this is a slot machine which is based on the tale of Alice in Wonderland, focusing extensively on one of the story’s most memorable characters, the Mad Hatter. Mad Hatters is one of Microgaming’s older slot machines, as you can tell by looking at the wagering menu. Players will be allowed to alter any of the 30 lines in the slot, and choose coin denominations of 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, or 0.25. They can also stake up to 10 coins per line. At its cheapest, the Mad Hatters slot will cost you 0.01 per line per spin. At its costliest, you are looking at a wagering which will set you back 75.00 per spin. According to Microgaming. You can win as much as 20,000 coins playing this non-progressive jackpot slot.
Special features
Wild symbols not only act as substitute symbols for all icons save for scatters and bonus icons in this slot, they can also offer you the non-progressive jackpot if 5 appear on a payline. Players who land the hat icon on the third reel will also see that wild expanding to occupy the whole reel, whilst they are offered a re-spin to take full advantage of that fact.
Cuckoo clocks act as bonus symbols in the Mad Hatters slot. When 3 appear on adjacent reels, players will trigger a Cuckoo bonus round. This bonus round is a basic instant win game, and players could potentially win as much as 13,500 coins whilst playing it.
There is also a scatter icon which comes in the shape of a bunny in a hat. When this symbol appears 3, 4 or 5 times in any positions on the reels, players will pocket 10, 25 or 50 free spins, respectively. They can also pocket scattered wins worth 5x, 50x, or 300x their total bet for these symbols appearing.
Bonus feature
When the bonus round begins, players will be able to choose an extra wild symbol for use in the feature. Extra wild symbols in the free spins bonus round can substitute for all other symbols in the slot, save for cuckoo clock bonus, and bunny in the hat scatters. These symbols can certainly bolster your chance of landing wins, but they certainly aren’t as profitable as the expanding wilds on the base game’s third reel.
Mad Hatters is a nice enough slot, but it is somewhat difficult to find now, having enjoyed its heyday a few years ago, now.
