Play’n GO has released Manta Mayhem, a 5‑reel, 20‑payline slot set beneath the waves. A manta ray glides above the reels, collecting pearl scatters that can unlock a special feature.
Pearl scatter
The pearl scatter appears only in the base game, once per reel. When collected, it may trigger the clam the prize feature, where picking a clam awards between 6 and 10 free spins along with 3 to 5 boosters. Before the free spins begin, players pick pearls to reveal additional boosters that stay active for the entire round. These boosters include extra spins, sticky wilds on reels 2‑4, stacked high symbols, random wilds, and win multipliers of 2x, 5x, or 10x. Special wilds – sticky wilds and one of four hp wilds – appear only during free spins.
Boosters
The free spins round cannot be retriggered, but the boosters selected before it begins shape the entire experience. Sticky wilds lock in place on reels 2‑4, while hp wilds substitute as regular wilds. The combination of chosen boosters can lead to explosive wins, with the top payout reaching 9,000x the stake. Specifications include a default RTP of 96.2%, high volatility (9/10), and a maximum win of 9,000x.
Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said:
We loved building a cast that’s more confident than competent, then dropping them into a treasure cove guarded by a Manta Ray who never forgets a missing trinket.
Manta Mayhem is full of personality – it’s colourful, comedic, and driven by that classic ‘bad plan getting worse’ energy.”
