Mid-Life Crisis Slots
For a lot of people, a mid-life crisis can be a bad thing. Usually, for a man, it means buying sports cars or boats - or even a look hair transplant - anything to look and feel young. Why are we bringing this up? Well, the fine folks at RealTime Gaming - RTG - thought a mid-life crisis would be the perfect theme for a slot. And they weren’t wrong! This is one of the funniest slot themes we’ve ever come across. It doesn’t take itself too seriously and you can tell. It’s an older game, which means the symbols and designs look a little dated, but that doesn’t take away from the overall presentation. There are funny symbols, upbeat music and it all works together. Playing this game will have you feeling better about your own mid-life crisis. So let’s take a closer look and see what’s in store for players when they hit 40!
Bets and Paylines
Mid-life Crisis is a 5 reel slot with 9 paylines. Bet sizes are from $0.25 to $11.25. That might not be enough to attract high rollers, but this game gives you the old school slot feel to it. So, if you’re looking to play something with a more vintage vibe in terms of paylines and bets, this one is for you.
Play Symbols
The symbols for Mid-Life Crisis are downright hilarious. They’re everything you’d think a Man would buy - we have BOATS, CASH, A MOTORCYCLE, CARS, JACUZZIS, and PARACHUTING ADVENTURES - they really hit the bullseye with these.
There are also multiple SCATTER symbols. The GOLD CHAIN, BALD MAN and TOUPEE are one set, while the three LOVELY LADIES are the second. This consists of a BLONDE WOMAN, BRUNETTE WOMAN and a RED HEADED WOMAN.
These two sets of scatters will trigger special features.
There are NO wild or free spins in Mid-Life Crisis.
Special and Bonus Features
Even though there are no free spins in Mid-Life Crisis, it still comes with two separate bonus features that players can rack up wins on…
- Mid-Life Crisis Feature
This feature triggers when players spin into the GOLD CHAIN, BALD MAN and TOUPEE. These can be anywhere on the reels and in any order. Players will then be awarded an instant win bonus. This will only pay out one bonus and then you return to the base game.
- Pick Your Poison Feature
This feature is triggered when you spin into the three LOVELY LADIES. Like the Mid-Life Crisis feature, these symbols can be anywhere on the reels and in any order. Players will then be given a choice to choose between an adventure - like parachuting - or Krazy Al’s Miracle Youth Tonic. Each item will reveal a different bonus amount, some being larger than others. After you are awarded your bonus, you will return to the base game.
To Play Or Not To Play?
That is the question and the answer is simply yes. Yes, this game is older. Yes, the graphics are dated. Yes, the bet range isn’t that wide. But who cares? The theme alone here should be enough! Even if it’s just for a few spins, Mid-Life Crisis is the kind of original, fun and unique game that deserves our attention. So what are you waiting for? Give it a try today!
