Deadmau5 online slot by Microgaming is a 5x3 reel, 243 payline, high volatility title. The thumping beats and laser light shows of one of the world’s most famous EDM artists form the basis of this slot’s theme. The symbols include clubgoers in the throes of musical ecstasy and the iconic Deadmau5 mask. The cascading reels mechanic removes symbols that form winning combinations, allowing new symbols to fall in their place. Features include free spins, a multiplier trail, and random wilds.

If 3, 4, or 5 scatters appear on the reels, you will be awarded 15, 20, or 25 free spins, respectively. A Multiplier Trail feature works with the cascading reels, with growing multipliers of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, and 10x for each successive win and resents when no more winning combinations appear.
Drop the wild
This feature randomly transforms reel 2, 3, or 4 into a fully wild reel.
Deadmau5 slot has the official trademark and music of its namesake, but it ultimately fails to electrify. The visual theme feels a bit underwhelming, with stock image backgrounds and no real running theme across the different types of symbols. The music is authentically Deadmau5, but fans of the DJ may be disappointed in the small number of tracks included with the slot. The gameplay is solid, thanks to Microgaming's combination of features and mechanics, and the maximum winning potential of $252 000 is enough to generate some interest. This slot may have seemed better if the expectation of the Microgaming name wasn't bearing down on it and it, unfortunately, suffers by comparison to other, more engaging titles from the same company.
