Midnight Marauder Slot

The gameplay of Midnight Marauder will be familiar to anyone who’s played a game like Bejeweled or Candy Crush. Here’s how to get started.

1. Load the game and click the Menu button to read the paytable and game info
2. Adjust the game settings and toggle sound effects or music in the same menu
3. Select your bet size with the - or + buttons on the bottom part of the screen
4. Press the Spin button on the bottom, or use the autospin feature. Good luck!

Unlike most slot machines, this 6x6 game doesn’t have set paylines. Instead, the game will pay out symbols that are adjacent to each other or in other words it offers cluster pays. Your bet can range between €0.10 to €30.

The game’s average return to player is set at 96.19%, which is a solid number that’s just about what you’d expect from a modern slot game. Interestingly, if you use the bonus buy, the RTP during the spin round is 96.87%. Keep in mind that these are simulated values and the actual returns will depend on your luck. Midnight Marauder is a high volatility game, which makes it best suited for players who are looking for high-risk and high-reward thrills in their gambling sessions. We did experience a fair amount of bad luck streaks, but they were broken up by solid wins.

What started in Helsinki back in 2010 has now become an award-winning international company with more than 100 employees and offices in Tallinn, Stockholm, Malmö, and elsewhere. In the beginning, they focused mainly on casino games like poker or bingo, but in 2018 they released their first slot machine.

Ever since, they have produced a consistent stream of high-quality slots, including hits like Zombie Circus, Snake Arena, and Book of 99. They are known for great mobile compatibility, eye-catching art styles, and exciting bonus features.

Collect & Multiply

The main gameplay feature of Midnight Marauder is Collect & Multiply, which matches nearby symbols together to combine them into clusters. Afterwards, they will be gathered into one bag and it will stay on the reels and the game will re-spin, allowing you to build even bigger wins.

While you need to get five symbols to start a cluster, during the re-spins any nearby symbol of the same colour will be added to the bag. What’s more, if you collect multiple bags of the same colour, their values will be multiplied by each other. Apart from that, this game has only one bonus feature.

Free Spins

If you get three scatter symbols, the game will start a bonus round with eight free spins; if you land more, you’ll get two more free spins for each scatter. The bonus round doesn’t differ much from the regular gameplay, and the Collect & Multiply feature is active here as well. Furthermore, you can retrigger free spins if you land a scatter symbol during the bonus round.

Bonus Buy

If you don’t want to wait and you’d rather outright buy the free spins bonus round, you can do that. It will cost 100x your bet, and you’ll get eight free spins. Is it worth it? That is a steep price indeed, so it’s up to you to decide.

It’s hard to get excited about a slot with gemstones, especially among such heavy-hitters like Gemix or Starburst. However, Midnight Marauder’s main gameplay feature, Collect & Multiply, kept the gameplay fresh and made it feel more rewarding. It’s also a nicely designed game with great sound effects and smooth animations. While we overall enjoyed our time in this slot, we wish they did more than the plain old free spins. There’s no gamble or any additional bonus rounds, which may get old after a while.
