Mariachi 5 Symbols
Real Time Gaming has used a host of colorful skeletons to act as the better-paying symbols in this game. There’s nothing out of the ordinary here, with each of the five titular mariachis capable of dishing out decent wins. Prizes with these icons range from 8x up to 750x a stake. By contrast, the high playing card symbols are worth substantially less, at 3x up to 60x your bet.
There are special symbols popping up in this game, too. First up, we have a wild symbol. This is impossible to miss (it’s a block of text), and it can appear stacked on the second and fourth reels. Wilds substitute for any icons you need to pocket wins on the slot, save for scatters. Any winning combo that features wilds will have its value doubled.
Scatters appear as skeleton piñatas. These can dish out scattered cash prizes with three or more appearing. In the free spin bonus, you can pocket scattered prizes with just two symbols. Let’s look at that next.
When three more scattered piñatas spring up anywhere on the screen, the free spin bonus is triggered. You’ll get to choose from the five mariachis, with each offering a varying number of spins and multipliers. The general rule is that the greater the number of spins you claim, the less valuable the multiplier will be.
Players can choose the red mariachi and enjoy fifteen free spins, but they will only get a 2x multiplier. Blue and green mariachis can offer twelve and ten free spins with 3x and 4x multipliers, respectively. Opt for the cyan/light blue mariachi to bag eight spins with a five multiplier. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can select the purple mariachi to land just five free spins. On the upside, this choice presents you with an 8x multiplier on anything you win. Free spins can be retriggered.
