Skull Bonanza is a 5×3 medium volatility video slot with a variable RTP of between 85.11% and 97.99% and 9 fixed paylines.
Game Mechanics
There are five high-value symbols, which are the woman, the man, the fruit, the flowers, and the alcohol. Then you have the A, K, Q, J, and T which payout lower prizes. The wild is a skull that says “WILD”, and it can substitute for anything except for a scatter. The scatter symbol will payout either 5x, 50x, or 1000x your bet depending on if there are 3, 4, or 5 of them, and you will also get +10 free spins.
Wild symbols are sticky during free spins, and all of the skull symbols either grant you a win multiplier or additional free spins.
Theme
The theme of this slot is the Mexican multi-day holiday known as Dia de Muertos or Day of the Dead. Celebrated on November 1st and 2nd, the Day of the Dead is a celebration of loved ones who have passed and the friends and family who are still with us. People gather to eat and drink and to tell funny stories about the dearly departed.
Graphics and Design
Skull Bonanza is a well-designed slot. It may not be super fancy, but the symbols look nice and are fairly creative. The colour scheme is attractive, and the celebratory effects are decent. The symbols of the fancily dressed guitar player and the senorita with roses in her hair are particularly striking.
Gamble
Feel like pressing your luck? This slot also has a game feature. After any win, no matter how big or how small, you can enter the gamble sub game. All you have to do is the color of the card, red or black. If you are right you double your win but if you are wrong you lose it all.
Conclusion
Skull Bonanza gets a rave review from us. It is a nice looking slot, with a really fun theme. The game play elements are just complex enough to keep it interesting. The game runs smoothly and is fun to play. Everything about this slot says it is going to be a success, and we are definitely a fan. So come, drink a toast, to those we have left behind, and celebrate their lives and what they meant to us.
