Lucha Libre slot review

In News

There is a particular style of professional wrestling that's extremely popular in Mexico called Lucha Libre. Realtime Gaming has created an excellent online slot based on this ultra-entertaining form of wrestling where acrobatics and excitement are a bit more important than keeping a strictly logical storyline, and it's the perfect type of wrestling for the online slot world.

Format of This Slot

This slot uses 25 paylines across five reels and three rows of action. Instead of choosing coin sizes per payline, you choose a total bet size. The smallest bet size available is $0.25 per spin, and this corresponds to a coin size of $0.01 per payline, which is ultra-low. You can bet up to $6.25 per spin, and this is like playing with coins worth $0.25 apiece. You do have an option to play with fewer paylines, but you should always keep all paylines activated so that you have all of the features available and get the best payout rate you can.


 

Key Symbols and Payouts

The wrestling ring scatter pays 200 times your total bet for five anywhere on the reels, and the scattered mask will pay a 25 times your total bet for five of a kind. You can get a 1x payout for just two of the masks, and the while the rings can be anywhere on the reels, the masks have to be on reels from left to right.

Taco Malo (in the red mask) and Guacamolio (in the purple mask) are both wild symbols in this game as well, and they are grouped wilds on the center real in the regular games. They can cover the reel to give you a 2x multiplier or even jump over to other reels to give you more wins.

The belt and trophy symbols pay out 1,000x each for five of a kind, and you can score with as few as two of them on an activated payline. Five of the poster for the wrestling match pays 250x, and five of the bottle of tequila or tv set pay 200x. You can also earn 125x for five trading cards, 125x for five of the bag of chips with salsa, 100x for five peppers or 100x for five of the bottle of beer.

Key Features

When you pick up three or more of the wrestling ring scatter, you'll be able to choose from three different finishing moves. You have a chance to succeed or fail with the moves, and the result will give you a different number of free games with different multipliers and extra special spins called the Mask of Fire Doom Spin.

In a mask of fire doom spin, entire reels of masks start from left-to-right, and they all count as the scattered mask symbol. This gives you tons of combinations of wins based on these scatter payouts, and they're extremely valuable. Overall, this is a really atypical type of special bonus feature spin, and it's something that really stands out as showing how Real Time Gaming knows how to think outside of the box.
