Reel Eldorado Slot Review

The color purplešŸŸŖ isnā€™t real! I just found this out.

There is no wavelength of light that represents the color we call purplešŸ¤Æ. Yeah, your brain made it up! Itā€™s not a mix of blue and red, as we think it is. How do we even know if purple looks the same to every personšŸ¤”?

Something else that isn't real is the fabled city of gold Mascotā€™s Reel Eldorado slot is based on.

Gameplay

Reel Eldorado slot is a very sanitized depiction of when the Spanish found themselves in Columbia instead of India. You play on 5 reels with 3 rows and 15 paylines.

The highest-paying symbols are a conquistador, a warrior, a lady, and a medicine man. There are also 4 medium-paying symbols: a parrot, a leopard, a rhino, and a gorilla. There is a Wild symbol that can substitute for any pay symbols except the Scatters.

There are 2 Scatter symbols here, which only appear on reels 2, 3, and 4 in the base game. Youā€™ll need 3 of a kind to trigger Free Spins with different active features.

This game has a 95% RTPRTP stands for ā€œReturn to Player.ā€ The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a gameā€™s volatility rate.
and a medium-volatility rating. You can bet anywhere from $0.15 to $45, or the equivalent, in any currency of your choice. The top multiplier in this case is 4,500x your bet, and the prize limit is $202,500.

Features

FREE SPINS

Landing 3 blue Scatters will grant you 10 Free Spins with Sticky Wilds and Re-spins. Landing 3 green Scatters will trigger 10 Free Spins with just Sticky Wilds.

During Free Spins with Sticky Wilds and Re-spins, the conquistador symbol is transformed into a Wild symbol that expands to take over the entire reel it appears on, turning it into a Wild Reel. However, it only appears on reels 2, 3, and 4.

The Wild Reel stays in place and the rest of the reels Re-spin. Landing another Sticky Wild triggers another Re-spin. You can only get up to 3 Re-spins.

In Free Spins with just Sticky Wilds, all the native symbols transform into Wilds. When they land, they stay in place until the end of the feature.

GAMBLE FEATURE

After a win in the base game or after a round of Free Spins, you can choose to risk your winnings for a larger prize.

Youā€™re presented with a 3-tiered wheel. The outer ring contains 2x to 3x multiplier values, a level-up segment, and blanks. The middle ring contains 2x to 4x multipliers, and the innermost ring contains multipliers from 2x to 5x.

Your winnings increase if you land on a multiplier. If you land on the level-up segment, the next ring will spin. You lose your prize money and return to the base game if you land on a blank.

The maximum you can win on the gamble feature is capped at $150.

BUY BONUS

Using the Buy Bonus option, you can trigger either round of Free Spins. For 10 Free Spins with Wild Reels and Re-spins will set you back 63x your bet. And 10 Free Spins with Sticky Wilds will cost 69x your bet.

The game also offers 10 Free Spins with Sticky Wilds for a special price thatā€™s randomly chosen when you open the Buy Bonus menu.

Performance

I tested this game out on my gaming laptop and Android phone across a few browsers, and it played perfectly on all of them.

Maximum Win

The biggest win you can land here is $202,500, which you get by placing the maximum bet in the range and hitting the 4,500x top multiplier. The bet range is limited to between $0.15 and $45.

Conclusion

Aside from the fact that rhinos and gorillas donā€™t live in South America, the gameā€™s design and art style are pretty cool.

You get 2 Free Spins rounds depending on the color of the Scatters that trigger them. Personally, I found the Free Spins with Sticky Wilds to be the better round, purely because there are more Wild symbols appearing in the game.

The Buy Bonus doesn't make Free Spins with Sticky Wilds much more expensive than the others, so it gives you a chance to see for yourself which is better if you're willing to pay for them.

Beyond the Free Spins, the game is a classic 5x3 slot with a gamble feature, which weā€™ve seen before in other games. I found it somewhat absurd that the maximum win cap was so low, especially considering that other games allow you to gamble a specific number of times.

The top win is great for a medium-volatility game, so that's also a huge plus in my book. I recommend giving this great little game from Mascot Gaming a try.
