Slot developers seem to adore giving their games the strangest names, don’t you think? I mean, I guess if something super is good, and mania can potentially be good, putting the two things together is a surefire recipe for success… right? Personally, I’m not quite so sure – it kind of sounds a little bit silly to me, but hey, who am I to judge? I won’t complain about the game’s mechanics though – Supermania is another Pragmatic Play scatter-pay machine, a category I have thoroughly enjoyed throughout the past year. With a 96.50% RTP and a maximum jackpot prize of 5,000x the total bet, let’s find out if Supermania really is super – or worth getting manic about!
In terms of features, you’ll probably find little to surprise you here – this looks to be a more-or-less straight-up clone of previous scatter-pay games such as Starlight Princess, so if you enjoyed that game but always thought it was a bit girly for your tastes, this might just be the answer! Supermania is a tumbling reels game with four multiplier symbols of various colours, each of which can have a value of between 2x and 500x. The main bonus round is a free spin-based feature awarding 15 rounds where multipliers are not reset between spins, and there are also bonus bet and bonus buy facilities available for the more impatient amongst you.

Supermania Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
These games are obviously proving just as popular with the wider Pragmatic Play player base as they are with us here at Demoslot, judging by the sheer number of them that the developer has been pumping out recently! We looked at a similar title named Candy Blitz just a week or two ago, for example, and the one that started it all off – Starlight Princess – got its own Starlight Princess 1000 upgrade recently too. I probably wouldn’t even take a guess at this point as to how many scatter-pay games Pragmatic Play has produced, but I will say that for my tastes, SuperMania is at least one of the more interesting of the bunch.
As for the payouts, however, those are exactly the same as those offered by previous iterations of this slot engine. The highest-paying diamond symbol will net you 50x the total bet for a maximum combination of 12 or more symbols, followed by 25x for the lightning ring, 15x for the amulet, and 12x for the purple ring. As for the low pays, there are five royals in this section of the paytable; 12 or more tens will bag you 2x your stake back in winnings, followed by 4x, 5x, 8x, and 10x for the jacks, queens, kings, and aces respectively. There’s also a payout of 100x the total bet reserved for hitting all six possible scatter symbols, which I always like to see.
As for the betting range, Pragmatic Play is one of the few developers still offering a wide range of bets in their games while still allowing players a granular degree of control over their stake. It’s hard to believe that’s a selling point for games nowadays, but that’s where we’re at, I’m afraid to say! The minimum/maximum betting limits are €0.20 and €100.00 per round, respectively.
Base Game & Modifiers
The basic gameplay of Supermania revolves around a 6×5 playfield for a total of 30 symbol positions. With a minimum of eight symbols required to score a win, you could theoretically win up to three times just from the initial symbol drop. That’s probably going to be quite a rare event, but you are sure to win several times from a single spin quite frequently anyway, thanks to the tumbling feature.
This works just as you have seen in many other games – winning combinations are immediately removed from the reels, allowing new symbols to fall into the created gaps. The difference here is that multiplier symbols can fall as part of each tumbling sequence, and their values will be added together at the end of the spin.
Multiplier Symbols
The four coloured multipliers appear in green, blue, purple, and red, but the colours are not related to their potential values. Any multiplier symbol can be worth from 2x to 500x, and if more than one of these is visible at the end of a round, their values will be added together before being applied to your winnings.
Ante Bet
Enabling this option will add 25% to the cost of each spin in return or double the chances of triggering a bonus round. That sounds like a good deal to me!
Supermania Slot Bonus Features
The bonus round requires four scatter symbols to trigger. If you only land three scatters, it’s still possible to catch the fourth one required to trigger a bonus during subsequent tumbling sequences. There’s also a cash prize of up to 100x the bet paid for hitting the maximum of six scatter symbols.
Free Spins Feature
During the free spins feature, all multiplier symbols that land on the playfield and are part of a win will have their value added to a global multiplier. This will be applied to all wins that include a new multiplier for the remainder of the feature. This means that as you get closer to the end of your free spins, your wins are always going to be worth more than they would be at the beginning.
This setup makes a re-trigger extremely valuable, and luckily, you’ll only need to catch three scatters to add five more free spins to your remaining total.
Bonus Buy
If permitted within your country or jurisdiction, you can opt to bypass the base game and purchase the free spins directly at a cost of 100x the normal price per spin.
Pros
- A familiar game mechanic that is popular around the world.
- Who doesn't love a superhero?
Cons
- The max win could be higher.
- Some players may be tired of the continued "Gates of" slots.
Final Thoughts
There’s nothing new to see here, but a clone of a great game is still a great game – just a rather unoriginal one! It’s still hard not to recommend Supermania though – it’s great fun, pays well, and the bonus round can be extremely generous on occasion. If you are new to the scatter-pay slots genre, you can’t afford to miss this one.
