Beetle Mania Deluxe Slot
Beetle Mania Deluxe is an obvious spin by Novomatic on The Beatles – the legendary English rock band. Rather than being a licensed slot machine it is beautifully designed bugs and insects that you will find on the reels rather than the legendary band members who captured the attention of women around the world – in this slot the only thing we want to catch is big wins on the reels!
Beetle Mania Deluxe uses Novomatic software, which is highly reliable and safe for gamers at all online casinos. The slot has a traditional 5 reel design with 3 rows of symbols on each reel giving a classic. Beetle Mania Deluxe Slots Powered by Novomatic, Beetle Mania Deluxe is a 5-reel video slot game with 10 paylines, a wild, 2-symbol combo wins, and free spins. Inspired by beetles.
Clearly they have taken some inspiration from the real band though as the slot is set on the backdrop of a music stage with microphones, guitars, and other instruments outlined. Unfortunately Novomatic didn’t take any inspiration when it came to the sounds on Beetle Mania Deluxe - it’s the same boring sounds seen in so many of their slots.
Beetle Bets for Everyone
Thankfully the structure in Beetle Mania Deluxe is very generous therefore players of all budgets will be able to play it. It contains 5 reels and 10 paylines with a minimum bet per line available of 1 and it goes up to a maximum of 100. This enables you to play for as little as £0.10 per spin up to a maximum of £100 which is pretty fair and should satisfy everyone.

Slithering Symbols with Standard Sounds
The symbols in Beetle Mania Deluxe look absolutely stunning. Novomatic have done a great job designing them to look realistic with a great use of colours and textures – in fact some look like they are going to spring to life on the reels.
The most rewarding symbol to watch out for is the Bee which acts as a Wild and has the ability to substitute for all others aside from the Music Note and Beetle as these are used for the free spins feature. Alongside these are a Snail, Caterpillar, Butterfly, plus standard playing cards Ace to 10.
The Bee is by far the most lucrative symbol with five on a payline being worth 50,000 credits while five of the Queen, Jack or 10 playing card symbols are only worth a 10 credit win.
As already alluded to, the sounds used in Beetle Mania Deluxe are just the boring standard ones we are becoming so bored of when playing Novomatic slots - this one uses the exact same sounds that are used in the Dolphins Pearl Deluxe slot machine. A little imagination with unique sounds would have somewhat improved Beetle Mania Deluxe – the buzzing from a bee or slithering from a snail for example.
10 Free Games
Three or more Music Note symbols landing anywhere on the reels will be music to your ears as it sees the free spins mode begin. You are instantly rewarded with a generous total of 10 free spins and unfortunately you cannot trigger the feature again during these spins, however if you manage to land the Beetle symbol on the central position of reel 3 it sees your free spins winnings double up – with a maximum of 100,000 your bet per line allowed – lovely!
Gamble Your Winnings
Beetle Mania Deluxe also offers gamble feature which you can make use of after any standard game win. This works in the same way as the gamble feature seen in many other Novomatic slot machines such as Book of Ra. You are presented with a playing card with win and loss either side of it, and your job is to press the stop button and hope that it lands on win. This will see you double your winnings and you can repeat the process until you choose to collect your winnings or ultimately lose them all.

Big Wins but Boring
I really like the idea of Beetle Mania Deluxe – it’s a great spin off from the legendary band using beautifully designed beetles and insects in place of the band members due to it not being an official licensed slot. The beetles and insects have been designed beautifully, however Novomatic should have taken some inspiration from their Big Catch slot machine which is much more exciting and boasts unique sounds – while Beetle Mania Deluxe offers the same sounds we hear from Novomatic over and over again.

With a massive 50,000 credit win on offer for landing five Wilds on a payline and a rewarding free spins feature that offers the opportunity for your wins to be doubled (landing the Beetle symbol in the central position on reel 3) it’s certainly worthwhile giving it a try, but sadly I found myself feeling bored once I experienced the free spins feature.
