Max Damage

Max Damage Slot Review

Max Damage is the first in a series of games featuring an adventurer and hero who gives his name to the game. Developed by Microgaming, Max Damage was launched in 2014, originally as a standalone release. However, the popularity of the game has ensured that sequels have been spawned. Repelling an alien attack is the name of the game in this cheeky, retro-looking entry from Microgaming.

Some of Microgaming’s most renowned features have made their way into this release. For starters, there is the customary 243 ways to win payline structure. There are also wilds, scatters, free spins, multipliers, and randomly triggered goodies.

Sure, the graphics and imagery are not quite as up to scratch today as they were when this game debuted in 2014, but Max Damage is still very much a fun, rewarding and enjoyable slot to play.

There are other Max Damage games out there which you may wish to have a spin or two on. Each has similar betting ranges, offers free spins, and comes with other randomly triggered perks. If you like what you see in this game, then spinning the reels of these sister titles is recommended. For now, players who want to give this game a go can read on to find out more.

How to Play Max Damage

Max Damage is a 5-reel, 243 ways to win game, and much akin to many produced by Microgaming in the base. Of course, you have got no chance of being able to alter those lines, but wagers are suitably cheap all the same.

You can expect to bet anything from 0.30 up to 15.00 a turn on this release. Wins are reasonable but a little on the small side. However, as a medium to low volatility game, with a decent RTP rate of 95.98%, you will not hear much complaining from players.

As always, there are high playing card icons in Max Damage. These are okay if you want to land smaller wins, but what you really want are the more thematic emblems, such as the planet, rockets, space stations and our hero himself. These can deliver far more substantial wins. Up to 500x your bet can be won with a five-of-a-kind combo (of title logos) in this game, which as mentioned is fair, but hardly ground-breaking stuff from Microgaming.

As mentioned, this is a popular 243 ways to win game, so you do not need to match up identical symbols on paylines to win here. Just getting three or more of them on consecutive reels (anywhere) will do.

• Wild – The Max Damage logo doubles up as the best-paying symbol and the game’s wild icon. It can substitute for all standard symbols save for scatters, is stacked on the reels, and will happily churn out the non-progressive win if five instances appear on the reels.
• Scatter – The green UFO is the symbol to look out for if you want to trigger the main bonus round. The alien spaceship will need to appear three or more times to see this happen. You will also pocket scattered wins (up to 50x your bet) for your efforts should you manage to do that.
