Monster Munchies (Booming Games, March 2017) is a jelly monster-inspired and confection-themed Internet casino game. Booming Games has other monster-inspired slots, including Barnyard Twister, Kawaii Dragons, and Ice World. Monster Wins from NextGen Gaming, Monster Wheels from Microgaming, and Boogie Monsters from Microgaming are rivals.

The symbolism involves monster-like characters, while “munchies” refer to snacks. Four symbols require 2X, 3X, 4X, or 5X combinations; three symbols require 3X, 4X, or 5X combinations; and six symbols require 3X, 4X, 5X, 6X, 7X, 8X, 9X, or 10X combinations.

Monster Munchies Game Characteristics
Monster Munchies has a 5X3 grid, 25 adjustable pay lines in Monster Munchies, and thirteen Monster Munchies symbols. There are two special symbols: a substituting green “Wild” munchy; and a free spins-offering pink-and-golden brown “Free Spins” munchy.

The eleven ordinary symbols consist of six lone and paired jelly monsters, and five differently colored jelly bears. The monsters are: an ice cream-holding blue-and-white jelly monster, and its pair; a purple jelly monster in a chef apron holding a swirl lollipop, and its pair; an orange-colored jelly monster with a chocolate chip cookie, and its pair.

The jelly bears are: a red jelly bear in a royal crown; a pink jelly bear in a silver tiara; a green jelly bear in a joker hat; a blue jelly bear with a necklace “10”; and an orange jelly bear with a silver necklace “9”.

The Monster Munchies “bet per line” options: $0.01, $0.02, $0.03, $0.05, $0.10, $0.20, $0.30, $0.50, $1.00, $2.00, and $3.00. The minimum total bet is $0.01. There are numerous bet sizes for each pay line, but the highest bet range comes from using all of the 25 pay lines: $0.25, $0.50, $0.75, $1.25, $2.50, $5.00, $7.50, $12.50, $25.00, $50.00, and $75.00 (maximum total bet).

Monster Munchies has different payouts for every bet size, implying that—for example—the $75.00 maximum bet yields these payouts. Note: the paired monsters pay twice as much. Two, three, four, and five combinations: the “Wild” munchy pays $15.00, $150.00, $1500.00, and $15000.00; and the red jelly bear, or pink jelly bear, or green jelly bear pays $6.00, $15.00, $30.00, and $75.00.

Three, four, and five combinations: the “Free Spins” munchy pays $750.00, $3750.00, and $7500.00; and the blue jelly bear “10”, or orange jelly bear “9” pays $6.00, $15.00, and $30.00.

Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine and ten combinations: the lone blue monster pays $15.00, $30.00, $75.00, $150.00, $300.00, $600.00, $1050.00, and $1500.00; a pair of blue monsters pay $30.00, $60.00, $150.00, $300.00, $600.00, $1200.00, $2100.00, and $3000.00; a lone purple monster pays $9.00, $24.00, $45.00, $90.00, $240.00, $450.00, $600.00, and $900.00; a pair of purple monsters pay $18.00, $48.00, $90.00, $180.00, $480.00, $900.00, $1200.00, and $1800.00; a lone orange monster pays $6.00, $15.00, $30.00, $75.00, $150.00, $300.00, $450.00, and $750.00; and a pair of orange monsters $12.00, $30.00, $60.00, $150.00, $300.00, $600.00, $900.00, and $1500.00.

More than three “Free Spins” symbols offer ten free games. Its $10000 non-progressive jackpot, good software, and the varied sounds are appealing. The kitchen island in the foreground and the concept remind of a similarly named RDF Television-owned cookery show. The snacky buttons are creatively embedded onto a brick wall, ranging from the donut-like spin icon to the dripping green munchies in the settings cog.
