Munchies Slot Review

Munchies Slot Overview

Munchies is a casino slot from Nolimit City in which Tinky Winky from Teletubbies has become a blood-crazed killing machine out to devour you. 

This is not actually a branded slot, but the resemblance had to be mentioned. The creature terrorizing this carnival is called Fluffers, which seems like too cute of a nickname for the fella. Its fur might warrant it, but we’ll skip petting it for now. Apart from a cool theme, Munchies also offers unique gameplay, where all you know about regular payways and paylines is out the window. In a way, it’s about as simple as it gets to follow. Let’s dig in!

Munchies is a video slot from Nolimit City with 1-4 reels and 1 row. No paylines or payways are active. Players can choose between making a Min.bet of 0.20 and a Max.bet of 100. The game has a default RTP of 96%, but there are also versions of 94.04%, 92.05%, and 84.06%. It has a hit frequency of 9.95% and a free spins hit frequency of 1 in 199 spins. Munchies is played at high volatility and can net you a max win of 10000x, 20000x, or 40000x, depending on a choice we’ll talk about in a bit. The max win frequency is 1 in 131k spins if you play the 4 reel grid. 

Although the game looks different from most slots out there, its mechanics are very simple and straightforward. The features of Munchies are Multiplier Wins, Linked Wins, It’s Alive Free Spins, Devour Spins, Nolimit Boosters, and Feature Buys.

The carni has come to town. Freaks litter the ground entertaining, swindling and charming people with the allure of the dizzying carnival sounds. Something lurks in the middle of the tents, it seems to be sleeping. Everyone has named the cuddly creature Fluffers .... what they don’t know is that it’s an absolute blood crazed killing machine!

You can win up to 10,000x, 20,000x, or 40,000x the bet, depending on if you play on 1 reel, 2 reels, or 4 reels. 

What features are available in the slot Munchies?

The features of Munchies are Multiplier Wins, Linked Wins, It’s Alive Free Spins, Devour Spins, Nolimit Boosters, and Feature Buys.

Multiplier Wins

Each time a multiplier lands, it multiplies your base bet and pays that amount out. 

Linked Wins

If you choose to pay extra to play with 2 or 4 reels, the Linked Wins mechanic will be active. If you play on 2 reels, any multiplier that lands on the first reel will also be added to the second. If you play on 4 reels, multipliers on the first reel will add to the following 3 reels, the second reel will add to third and fourth, and so on.

It’s Alive Free Spins

Landing a Scatter symbol (Free Spins) awards 10 It’s Alive Free Spins. It’s not stated what is different on these spins than regular spins, but the Multiplier Wins seem a lot more frequent. 

Devour Spins

Landing a Scatter symbol (Free Spins) during It’s Alive Free Spins triggers Devour Spins and awards 5 extra spins. During Devour Spins, the highest multiplier value that lands gets locked above the reel area and is awarded as a win on each spin. 

Nolimit Boosters

More reels can be unlocked by activating one of the two Nolimit boosters at an additional cost:

4x = 2 Reels

16x = 4 Reels

Feature Buys

The following Feature Buys are up for grabs:

55x = 1 Reel It’s Alive Free Spins

210x = 2 Reels It’s Alive Free Spins

550x = 4 Reels It’s Alive Free Spins

260x = 1 Reel Devour Spins

1000x = 2 Reel Devour Spins

2400x = 4 Reel Devour Spins

2500x = God Mode, giving you either the 10,000x max win or 0x.

Munchies Slot Conclusion

We like it when providers try new things, whether we like the product or not. It’s always hard to know what is going to blow up and what will fall flat, so gambles have to be made. A perfect example of this is Pirots. ELK Studios was far from sure that it would succeed as it was so different from all other games at the time, but it ended up being one of the biggest slot hits of all time. 

We highly doubt that Munchies will see that level of success, though. Although visually unique, it’s a bit too simple for us to get excited. The mechanic of “spelling out” your win is also not brand-new. Push Gaming did it with Generous Jack, for one, but that’s only one of many fitting examples. To be fair, though, the Linked Wins mechanic makes Munchies less dull than it risked being, as big wins on the first reel quadruple the amount. Sadly, that mechanic is not even available unless you pay extra to unlock more reels, which will likely prevent many players from playing it. We know that Nolimit City is capable of creating great products, but this just isn’t one of them. 

Munchies from Nolimit City is as simple as it gets, which is not what we’ve come to expect or want from this particular provider.
