The Animal Madness slot takes place on a simple layout of 5 rows and 5 reels, where paylines are not included because the game utilises the cluster pays mechanic. If you are unfamiliar with it, wins can be achieved by landing at least 4 matching symbols that are adjacent horizontally or vertically.
Looking into the theme, the background looks a little dull and dreary (much like British weather) at first, but this soon brightens up once the Sunflower wakes. On the right you can see the animals asleep in their barn, and an adorable little Sunflower on the left.
In terms of symbols, the highest paying regular symbol in Animal Madness is the Cow, followed by the Sheep, Goat and Chicken. Low paying symbols fall to Pumpkins, Tomatoes, Corn and Wheat. There are also a variety of Wild symbols that appear during features, which substitute for all High and Low-paying symbols when used as part of a winning combination.
Winning clusters will be removed from the reels and the vacant positions will be filled with brand new symbols. This can potentially result in additional winning clusters and more payouts.
When you form a winning cluster it will get removed from the grid and a Sunflower will get one petal lit at a time which will get you one step closer to waking up the farm. After a certain number of cascades, you will see Wild modifiers getting added to the playing field.
The game can get very intense at times, as winning clusters activate the cascade feature which then can fill up the metre of the Sunflower. By filling up the Sunflower's metre, the player is greeted with wild symbols of various sizes and numbers, which quickly can generate many great wins. What makes it all extra interesting is that with 9 cascades in a row, the symbols payouts are doubled.
