Pinata Wins, a video slot from PG Soft, immerses players in a festive Mexican fiesta. The game features vibrant visuals with themed symbols such as tacos, maracas, sombreros, chilies and piñatas set against a backdrop of colorful decorations. While there is no narrative, the aesthetic effectively conveys a light and celebratory atmosphere.
The core mechanics revolve around cascading reels. Winning symbols disappear after a payout, triggering new symbols to cascade down and potentially create consecutive wins on a single spin.
Regular symbols can appear with gold frames on reels 2, 3 and 4. When a Gold Framed symbol is part of a winning combination during a cascade, it becomes a wild symbol. In addition, these Gold Framed symbols can carry multipliers ranging from 2x to a whopping 100x. Multipliers from different Gold Framed symbols in a winning combination are added together, further increasing the payout potential.
The single Wild symbol, represented by a glamorous lady, substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter. This substitution feature helps players complete winning combinations by substituting for missing symbols.
Getting 3 or more Scatters (represented by a multicolored star) triggers the Free Spins bonus. Players receive 15 free spins, with 2 additional spins awarded for each scatter beyond the 3rd. During the free spins, a unique global progressive multiplier comes into play. All multipliers collected from Gold Framed symbols are added to this counter, increasing the multiplier applied to all winning combinations during the Free Spins round. The Global Progressive Multiplier has no specified upper limit; however, the bonus round ends when the win cap is reached.
An innovative multiplier mechanism: Pinata Wins features a compelling Global Progressive Multiplier during Free Spins. By accumulating multipliers throughout the bonus round, players have the potential to significantly increase their winnings. This feature adds an extra layer of excitement and anticipation to the Free Spins, making it a standout aspect of the slot's design.
