The Forest Mania slots game can be found at casinos offering iSoftBet software. iSoftBet are one of the newer casino software providers on the market but they have managed to tie down some impressive branded slots game contracts. As a standard iSoftBet do not publish the RTP/House Edge information for their slots games within the game help file or paytables. However as part of the UKGC license requirements many UKGC licensed operators have started to publish this information for all of their games. As such we can tell from Trada’s site that the House Edge of Forest Mania is 4.38% when playing maximum paylines/coins.
Stroll through the forest and see if you can find yourself some treasure despite the wood.
Forest Mania is a 10 reel slots game that does not use a standard reel layout. The 10 paylines are split into 5 reels on the left and 5 reels on the right. The left set of reels is 4 symbols high. The right set of reels is 11 symbols high. Forest Mania uses a total of 100 paylines.
The ‘W Gold Coin’ symbol is Wild.
There are three bonus features when playing Forest Mania. The first bonus feature is activated randomly. A random symbol on the left set of reels is selected and changed into a W Gold Coin Wild symbol. After this all occurances of the selected symbol are changed into W Gold Coin Wild symbols.
The second bonus feature is triggered randomly. When this happens up to 3 reels on the left set of reels are selected randomly and turned into Wild reels. The corresponding reels on the right set of reels are then also changed into Wild reels.
The third bonus feature is activated randomly. When this happens you will be awarded 10 free spins. During the free spins both of the other bonus features occur more frequently.
Conclusion
Forest Mania has a reasonable selection of bonus features and an interesting reel layout, though anyone familiar with the WMS Gaming catalogue will be very familiar with the format being used. The House Edge is reasonable without being attractive. Not the best game but not the worst.
