Paco and the Popping Peppers is a themed 5 reel slot from BetSoft. Like many of their other slots this one offers 30 paylines and is an absolute hoot. Gameplay is further enhanced by a wild symbol, a higher or lower bonus round and multipliers triggered by the popping peppers themselves.
Paco and the Popping Peppers Slot Theme
Fans of high end 3D video slots will love Paco and the Popping Peppers. From the moment it loads you can tell it’s a quality slot. Paco stands to the lefthand side dancing, sleeping and issuing commands depending on what’s going on in the game. Meanwhile the reel icons offer a full array of 3D animation when static and when a winning combination is made.
These icons include onions, pineapples, cocoanuts, chilli peppers, green peppers, red peppers, piñata and Tiki Huts. Each offers amazing animations which include eye and mouth movements which run when you are not even playing. The sound effects compliment the gameplay perfectly but if these are not to your liking can be muted using the button in the header.
Coin values begin at 0.02 with a number of denominations ranging up to the maximum $/£/€1. You can also opt for 1 to 5 credits per line which combined with the 30 possible paylines creates a betting range of 0.02 to 150 per spin. This makes it a great penny slot whilst at the same time providing enough incentive for high rollers.
Paco and the Popping Peppers Slot Features
The popping part comes from the way the reels pop when a winning combination of three or more symbols is formed. These pop which causes more symbols to fall from above, which in turn creates more winning opportunities. Every time a winning combination is formed the multiplier increases to a maximum of 10 (if ten wins drop in).
The number of winning opportunities is enhanced further by the donkey piñata. This stands in for all other symbols except the hut bonus. Five of these symbols also pays an impressive 500 coins.
Three or more tiki hut symbols starts the fiesta bonus round. It’s simply a case of selecting whether the next card will be higher or lower than the current one. You get three strikes before you are returned to the reels or ten correct choices. As you’d expect Paco makes an appearance in his full animated glory.
We were really impressed by Paco and the Popping Peppers, it utilizes avalanche reels perfectly and offers two other awesome features. It also helps that the slot is beautifully designed and offers an impressive $2,500 jackpot.
