Slot Summary

A feature tab that upgrades prizes before releasing them is the main promise of Mayan Boost. Microgaming uses five reel-linked paths for Wild Multipliers, Fixed Jackpots, Random Wilds, and Walking Wilds, giving special symbols more purpose than a simple trigger. The 96.24% RTP sits beside high volatility and a 7,500x ceiling, while a Bonus wheel determines which Free Spins mode follows.

How It Plays

Twenty paylines govern the ordinary five-reel spin. Above them, the feature tab tracks separate prize paths, and special symbols either improve a path or release its current award.

High volatility places more weight on the feature events than routine line wins. The maximum stake is 30, while the listed top result reaches 7,500x the stake.

Theme & Atmosphere

The Aztec theme frames the feature tab as a set of ancient prizes rather than an unrelated control panel, tying its symbols to the game's core mechanic.

Temple and relic imagery support the Bonus wheel and Fixed Jackpots, while the five-path display keeps the ancient setting readable during ordinary spins.

Features & Win Potential

Each feature-tab position can hold a different result, including Wild Multipliers, Fixed Jackpots, or additional Wilds. Upgrade symbols raise the value attached to those positions.

Walking Wilds and Random Wilds alter reel coverage, while Wild Multipliers change the value of completed lines. Their separation across the tab makes each trigger position matter.

Bonus & Free Spins

Three or more Sun symbols open a 10-spin Free Spins sequence. A Bonus wheel then assigns one of four modes, including configurations with extra Wilds or jackpot access.

Free Spins can apply a multiplier to line wins while the feature-tab mechanics remain relevant, so the round can combine Bonus wheel modifiers with upgraded tab prizes.

How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (High). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (96.24%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (7,500×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
