Poco Loco is a Mexican-themed online slot from Ready Play Gaming that combines traditional slot elements with unique bonus features. The game is set against a vibrant backdrop with symbols depicting candy, red and green chili peppers, as well as standard Wild and Scatter symbols.
The slot utilizes a 5-reel layout with 20 fixed paylines. The Wild symbol substitutes for all other symbols except the Scatter and appears on reels 2 through 5. Landing three Scatters anywhere on reels 1, 2, and 3 triggers 12 free spins with additional Wilds added to the reels.
A highlight of Poco Loco is the Respin feature, activated when three stacked Candy symbols land on reel 1. The triggering reel is held in place while the other reels respin three times, with any Candy symbols locking into position. After the third respin, all Candy line wins are paid out.
The Hot Hot Chili Climb is an add-on game that can be enabled or disabled. Players collect red and green chilis to win the Mild or Hot progressive jackpots, respectively. Landing a mix of three chilis activates the Chili Climb feature, where players pick chilis to progress up a prize ladder for the chance to win enhanced rewards.
Poco Loco offers a bonus buy option, allowing players to purchase the Free Spins, Respins, or Chili Climb Bonus features at varying multiples of the base game bet.
