About Montezuma slot

Montezuma sounds rather exotic and it definitely is as you’re about to enter a Central American jungle. For WMS, Montezuma was a way to pay tribute to an Aztec warrior that lived by the same name. Montezuma was a warrior who led the Aztec people and was the first to confront the Spanish colonists. The game initially gained widespread popularity in land based casinos across the world, after which it reached the internet as well — including Canadian venues. 

Montezuma’s major incentive can be found in the Free Spins Bonus where users can win up to 25 free Spins and multipliers up to 10x. Montezuma was succeeded by a Megaways version in 2020 which we’ll shortly address in this review. Both games score just below average when considered from an RTP perspective, but Vernon’s slot experts believe there are enough reasons to still give this game a shot. This especially concerns the Megaways edition that gives players the option to make use of a Buy Pass and thereby increase their RTP. Read on to find out more about Montezuma’s RTP. 

RTP, Volatility, and Other Details

Montezuma isn’t widely known to be one of WMS’ most popular games, but throughout the years it has turned out to be highly popular among users that are based in Canada. This can be explained by the fact that some users were already familiar with the land based game that was available for players before the online version hit the market.

The original Montezuma game as launched in 2014 contains 5 reels, a medium volatility, and an RTP of 95,86%. Like other games we’ve come across in our reviews, this is slightly below average. We prefer to stick to games that exceed at least 96%, but every now and then we include some titles that have lower RTP as well, usually because of their own special features. As the RTP can make a big difference for players that expect themselves to make a large number of spins, we do suggest you take this into consideration when it comes to setting your budget and making your first spin on Montezuma. The game’s volatility is fortunately set at medium which compensates for the slightly lower RTP. This especially applies to the original Montezuma game. 

Montezuma Megaways (2020)

The Megaways edition comes with better stats and was launched six years after the first game. Still, it doesn’t touch the 96% range we believe to be an important minimum number: Montezuma Megaways’ is set at 95.92% which is a bit below average. Something we need to point out here for all players looking for high RTP slot games in Canada is that the RTP increases to 96.17% in case you make use of the Buy Pass — which is what other game developers would call the Buy Feature or the Bonus Buy feature. Buying direct access to the free spins feature costs 85x the stake which is quite reasonable if you ask us. This also holds for the RTP, although we would have preferred the base RTP to be considerably higher to be fully happy about this game. The other stats that come with Montezuma Megaways are all reasonable as there are 117,649 ways to win a spin, a high volatility, and a stunning 12,500 maximum win. 

Montezuma features

The features are very straightforward in this game by WMS as it’s the free spins feature that will help you make the big wins. While playing this Montezuma slot machine you’ll also notice that a large wheel spins as a scatter symbol. Four of these scatter symbols are needed to unlock the bonus game which is the game’s main highlight. The outcome of this spin not only determines the number of free spins you receive, but also the multiplier you can claim. Spinning the Montezuma symbol five times ensures that you can count on a payout of 3,000 times the bet per payline. In other words: the multipliers are the ones to ensure that the bonus game of this slot machine can turn out particularly interesting.

After all, the right multipliers can cause your payout to really explode — in a good way that is. With regard to the free spins in the bonus game, it is important to take into account that these can significantly vary, so don’t be surprised to see numbers ranging between 3 and 25 spins. While some would say that the Montezuma slot machine mainly focuses on the more experienced players, we believe this is certainly true for the Megaways-edition. The standard game comes with a medium volatility that is a lot easier on the wallet. 

Conclusion

Die hard players will agree with us if we state that online versions of land based slot machines are really something special as they try to give us the real casino feeling we’re used to from our preferred casino venue in Canada. Montezuma is one of the games that first made its debut in brick and mortar casinos after which it was brought to online casinos as well. This turned out to be a wise decision for provider WMS. Although played on different platforms, Montezuma online did manage to attract the crowds.

To begin with: the RTP is a lot higher than its physical counterpart, explaining why a lot of players nowadays prefer the online version as this is a slot for serious gamblers. Players eager to try and win as much as possible, but have the discipline not to deviate from the plan if the account balance takes a plunge. Do note that this can definitely happen in Montezuma.

The bonus game is especially exciting. The turn of the sun clock is very important, so make sure to watch. You can win up to $250,000 per spin, which is quite something given the maximum bet of $60. The payout percentage is 95,86% which might be a bit too low for experienced online slot players that have never played the physical version of the game.

However, for those used to land based slots, a RTP of 95,86 percent should be just fine. Our guess is that it kind of depends on your background history whether this game is for you or not.
