Mount M Slot Review
Mount M is a new video slot from Play ‘N Go that was released on September 8, 2022. This slot is set in a desolate winter terrain that is covered with snow and ice. The mammoths, tigers with saber teeth, and other creatures with thick hides are doing all they can to increase your chances of winning big. Wild symbols are equipped with orbs that have the potential to extend the center reels to a height of eight rows, thus providing the player with 8192 different possibilities to win. The animal symbols will also be upgraded as the reels extend, which will increase the player's chances of winning significant sums of money. There are no living people on the mountain, but there are signs of their presence in the form of spears that have been left behind and a wooden cross that has a banner attached to it. The soundtrack is ominous and sluggish, while the clouds in the backdrop are moving from left to right. It is time to don all of your garments so that you may go back in time to Mount M and battle the bitter cold with the native creatures there. Read our review to decide whether it is worth your time and money playing it.

Mount M Bonus Features
Wild Symbol
The reels 2, 3, and 4 are the only ones on which the Wild Symbol may appear. It is represented as a golden W and may stand in for any other sign, with the exception of the scatter. The Wild Symbol also has the potential to activate the Expanding Reels feature.
Expanding Reels
It is possible for reels 2, 3, and 4 to get highlighted on any spin of the main game. The Expanding Reels feature will be activated when a wild symbol appears on any of the reels that have been highlighted. The previously stated reels will expand to include between one and four rows, providing the player with up to 8192 different possibilities to win. It is possible that all of the higher-paying creatures will simultaneously be upgraded to mammoths, but it is also possible that just some of them will. Every time there is an additional row, one of the animals will get an upgrade.
Free Spins
If you manage to get 3, 4, or 5 Scatter Symbols anywhere on the reels, you will be rewarded with 10, 15, or 20 Free Spins respectively. During the feature, all of the wild symbols are equipped with orbs that have been retrieved from the frozen rows above the reels. When all of the spots have been filled, the ice will crack, revealing an additional row on the reels 2, 3, and 4. In order to access rows 1, 2, 3, and 4, you will need 5, 10, 14, and 17 orbs, respectively. The rows will continue to be accessible during the remainder of the feature. Every time a further reel is added, one of the symbols with larger payouts will be transformed into a mammoth, much as in the Expanding Reels feature, and this will provide with 1 extra spin. During the free spins, any combination of 2, 3, 4, or 5 Scatter symbols will result in an additional 3, 5, 8, or 10 free spins being awarded. You have the chance to earn up to 68 extra Free Spins.
Our Experience Playing Mount M
As soon as we fired up the game, we were welcomed with what seems to be a rather simple reelset as well as music that had a tribal flavor. At first glance, there was nothing special about this slot, so we had to test how it behaved in terms of payouts to decide whether it was worth your time and money playing it. To do this, we resorted to our tried-and-tested method of depositing 200 Euros, setting the bet to 1 Euro, and giving it around 300 spins or so. During the first one hundred spins of the slot machine, there were a significant number of spins that did not result in a win, and there were only a few winnings that were considered to be at least slightly respectable amounting to 10x the bet each on average. Despite this, we were successful in activating the Evolution Free Spins bonus, which resulted in a payout that was generously worth 90 times our original wager. Because of those payouts, we came really close to achieving equilibrium in our balance. During the next one hundred spins, the image became a lot worse, but we still managed to win a handful of prizes that ranged from 10 to 15 times our original wager. At that time, the total amount of money in our account was 115 Euros. The scenario during our last one hundred spins was extremely similar to the situations that had occurred during the previous two rounds, with the difference that the bonus round awarded us 110 times the amount that we had wagered. The winnings we received throughout the bonus rounds were excellent. Overall, after 300 spins, we managed to win 34 Euros and left the game with mixed feelings.
Mount M Verdict
The base game of this slot machine is not very fascinating, but once you activate the free spins bonus round, you should be ready to earn some serious money. The fact that you have to play this slot machine quite a few times before you can access the bonus rounds is one of its most important drawbacks. The fact that the game itself is quite dull does not make the waiting any more enjoyable. After all is said and done, we believe that there are better slots out there, but if you really want to, you may try this one at your own risk. If you do decide to try it, however, you should be aware of the potential downsides. Good luck and have fun!
