Ice Mints (Pragmatic Play) – Review & Demo Play

Ice Mints Slot Overview

I spun Ice Mints on launch and found a refreshingly simple 5x3 slot with 20 paylines, high volatility, and a neat twist built around cup multipliers. Bets run from 0.20 to 240 per spin, the default RTP sits around 96.5%, and the top payout reaches 10,000x the stake. The hook is landing Mints that drop into cups beneath reels 2–4, sometimes firing reel-wide Wilds with multipliers that can combine. It’s straightforward, cleanly presented, and easy to pick up.

Ice Mints Symbols and Paytable

Wins form left to right on 20 fixed lines. The paytable splits into fruity lows and drink-themed premiums. Oranges, kiwis, blueberries, and strawberries handle the low end. Premiums are a juice box, a cup with a straw, a bottle of cola, and a glass smoothie. The W coin is the Wild, subbing for all except Scatters and Mints. Scatters trigger free spins, while Mints drive the cup feature below the grid. It’s a compact set that keeps reads quick.

Five-of-a-kind payouts are tidy and clear. Low symbols pay about 2.5x to 5x for a full line. Premiums step up to 10x, 15x, 20x, and 40x for the top glass symbol. With Wild reels in play, the paytable can pop when multipliers land in tandem. I rate this mix as classic Pragmatic: familiar shaping, enough headroom on the premiums to make Wild reels feel meaningful, and clean values that pair well with the multiplier mechanic.

Ice Mints Slot Features

Cup multipliers sit under reels 2, 3, and 4. On each spin, random values appear on the cups. When a Mints symbol lands above, it drops into the cup. Randomly, this can trigger an expanding Wild that fills the reel; the cup’s multiplier then applies to all wins that spin, and multiple multipliers add together. Reels 2 and 3 can show x2 to x20, while reel 4 can reach x25. When it pops, combined reels can turn modest lines into tidy totals.

Free spins land with 3, 4, or 5 Scatters for 10, 15, or 20 spins. Here the rules shift. Cups start empty and don’t get random values. Instead, when a Mint drops and doesn’t trigger the Wild reel, that cup’s multiplier increases and sticks for the round. Retriggers add the same number of spins as the initial trigger. One gripe: when a Mint does trigger the Wild expansion, the cup doesn’t grow that spin, which can feel a touch stingy.

There’s a Feature Buy for 80x the bet if you want straight into free spins. I tried a few and saw the usual swingy pattern: early duds if cups don’t climb, but when two cups reach decent levels then expand on the same spin, results can surprise. The buy feels fairly priced for the format given the persistence. As always, it’s variance-heavy, so I treat it as a punt when the base game looks sleepy.

Theme and Graphics in Ice Mints

The look is bright and polished without fuss. A block of ice frames the scene, with three red cups bobbing beneath the reels to spotlight the mechanic. Symbols are colourful fruit and drinks, cleanly drawn, and wins snap with glassy shatters. The soundtrack is light and minty, sitting out of the way. It’s a pleasantly basic style that suits quick sessions. Not much personality beyond the cups, but the presentation never distracts from the multipliers doing the heavy lifting.

Ice Mints Slot RTP & Volatility

Ice Mints runs on a high volatility model rated around 5 out of 5. The default RTP is about 96.5%, with alternative setups in the mid-95s and low-94s depending on operator configuration. Max win is 10,000x the bet, which aligns with the cup system’s ability to stack values and turn Wild reels into serious hitters. Stakes of 0.20 to 240 cover casual spins and high-roller testing. It’s very capable of dry spells before the cups line up.

If you’re managing bankroll, I prefer steady base play with moderate stakes, looking for signs the Mints are showing up. The Feature Buy quotes 80x and can be worth a shot when you fancy a nudge towards persistent multipliers; some setups list a slightly higher RTP during buys. Expect a sharp distribution of outcomes either way. For me, the sweet spot is chasing cups to mid values, then hoping two reels expand within a short window.

Final Word on Ice Mints

Ice Mints feels like a peppermint candy: sweet, light, and fleeting. The core loop is tidy, with reel-wide Wilds and cup multipliers combining for pleasing pops, yet the feature set is minimal. I enjoyed a few crisp hits, though the moment a Mint triggers a Wild and the cup doesn’t grow, it can take the edge off. Still, with combinable multipliers and a 10,000x ceiling, there’s clear upside when the cups sync at the right time.

For high-volatility fans, it’s an agreeable short-term spin in the ice. I dip in when I want functional fun that can spike without lots of moving parts. If you want evolving layers or deeper narrative, this one won’t hold you long. My best runs came when two cups climbed then expanded back-to-back. When that happens, it lands exactly as billed: refreshing, punchy, and done.
