Summary:
- Pragmatic Play will release the Ice Mints slot on August 14
- Betting range from $/€0.20 – $/€240
- Max win of 10,000x
Pragmatic Play, one of the industry’s fastest-growing providers of iconic online casino games, has announced the launch of Ice Mints.
The mid-August releases will introduce fans of the studio to a frosty game packing full-reel wild symbols and exciting multipliers, all sprinkled with minty freshness.
On a scorching summer afternoon, Ice Mints offers a fun visual escape with icy slabs paired with mint leaves for a refreshing vibe.
The graphics are clean and crisp, but the overall look lacks enough personality or charm to make the game truly stand out from a sea of summer releases. Real money slot enthusiasts, however, will likely enjoy the classic design that features a 5×3 grid and 20 paylines paying left to right.
Bets range between 20 cents and $/€240 for each spin, and the max RTP clocks in at 96.5%. The aim is to land wild reels and trigger the multipliers that sit in cups below the reels.
In terms of symbols, the game packs an interesting mix that features orange and kiwi slices, blueberries, strawberries, smoothies, soda bottles, and juice boxes.
Fruits represent the low-paying symbols, and their values range from 2.5x to 5x the bet for players who match a minimum of five in a row.
The drinks symbols trigger higher rewards, with payouts reaching up to 40x for five-of-a-kind. Wild symbols substitute for anything except for scatters and Mints symbols.
Special Features
The three middle reels display cups filled with random multipliers. Landing a Mints symbol will cause it to drop into one of the cups below, which might then expand into a full-reel wild and apply the multiplier.
Multipliers can stack if more than one is active, reaching up to x25 on reel 4.
Free spins kick in with at least three scatters, awarding between 10 and 20 spins.
During the bonus round, multipliers persist and grow every time a Mints symbol lands without triggering a wild. You can even buy your way straight into this feature for 80x your bet.
In the end, Ice Mints is charming but shallow. The features are fun for a while, but like a real breath mint, the flavor fades quickly. It’s a pleasant diversion, but unlikely to become a classic in Pragmatic Play’s lineup.
