Maya Pyramid is a 21 line, five reel online video slot from Viaden. The slot sticks to the companies good value and fair play ethos by offering bets from just 1 penny.

Maya Pyramid Slot Theme

There’s no escaping the fact that Maya Pyramid uses a very formal layout. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing because everything is easy to understand and clear from the get go. Five rectangular reels contain three square icons each with colorful markers detailing each of the 21 paylines.

There are twelve different reel icons, seven of which are thoughtfully styled to match the slots theme. These include dragons, eagles, horses, tigers, Mayan Queens, Chiefs and temples. As with many other slots these have been combined with 10, J, Q, K and A symbols.

The clear button layout allows you to place bets using just two buttons. There are multiple betting options which range from 1 penny to £/$/€1.05 bets.

Maya Pyramid Slot Features

The Mayan Princess icon acts as an expandable wild which can appear on any of the five reels. It cannot replace the Pyramid bonus but can produce one scatter to provide more winning opportunities.

The Mayan Chief scatter awards an instant win when three or greater appear on the reels at the same time. Three scatters pays two times the total bet, four pays ten times the total bet and five pays a generous one hundred times the total bet.

In a similar way the bonus game is unlocked with three Pyramid scatters in any location. You are presented with a five tier bonus game and asked to click ‘new wish’ to start. This awards one of the temples prizes and gives you the choice to collect or wish again to try to increase your winnings. After two chances you are automatically allocated the last prize won.

Fans of simple, good value slots will enjoy Maya Pyramid. It may not offer the same level of animation or design as other slots but this doesn’t make it a bad slot. Sometimes a simple slot is better, especially if you are just starting out or playing for fun.
