Rise of Maya by NetEnt is a 5-reel, 3-row video slot set in an ancient Mayan temple. The game uses 10 fixed paylines and a medium-high volatility profile, with an RTP range listed at 96.12% to 96.42%. The paytable combines high-paying mask symbols with lower-value card suits, while serpent-themed wilds support the main features.
Special mechanics include a single Serpent Wild, expanding Serpent Wilds, and Serpent Stacks that can cover an entire reel during free spins on hot reels. Free spins are triggered by three or more wild or scatter symbols in the base game, and additional spins can be awarded during the feature. A Scatter Nudge can also activate in winning and non-winning rounds, moving wilds or scatters into view.
The demo version is available to play for free, which allows players to practice before playing for real money and see how the Second Chance Scatter bonus bet works. When enabled, it doubles the stake and can add a re-spin if at least two wild or scatter symbols appear, giving another route to the free spins round.
