Wild Luchador Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

Step into the wrestling ring in the Wild Luchador slot on a 5 reel, 3 row, 243 ways to win machine. Winners are formed in the standard manner for a slot with this mechanic by landing 3 or more matching symbols or wilds on adjoining reels from left to right, starting from reel 1.

The minimum stake here is 30p per spin with the maximum coming in at £120 per spin. Click on the coins to the right of the screen then pick your bet size.

The Wild Luchador RTP is 96% which is about average. What isn’t average is the variance. This is a high as a Mexican chili when it comes to volatility. On a scale of 1 to 5 we’d put the volatility at a red hot 4.5. The maximum win here is a massive 40,557 x your total stake from a single spin.

Theme – Audio & Design Features – enter the Mexican wrestling ring 

Like most games in the Quickspin catalogue, there’s plenty of flair on display when it comes to the design of the Wild Luchador slot. With a Mexican wrestling theme which is known as Lucha Libre, the setting here is a wrestling ring with silhouettes of the crowd in the background.

Accompanying the impressive cartoon visuals is a brass-heavy mariachi soundtrack. It’s a cracking complement for the imagery and works really well.

On the reels you’ll find A to 9 symbols that are edged in stars. They’re joined by symbols that have a Mexican theme and are associated with the Day of the Dead festivities. In order of value are a guitar, cactus plant, green chili, candles and a bottle of Tequila. The most lucrative symbol is the skull. Land 5 of these in combination for an award equal to 16.67 x your total stake.

You’ll also see 5 Luchador Wrestlers clad in bright spandex outfits. These are expanding wilds that can land on all 5 reels. There’s also a clock scatter that triggers the bonus round if you land 3, 4 or 5 of them on the same spin.

Quickspin has created mobile and tablet versions of Wild Luchador. The colourful design and mariachi soundtrack are ideal for small screen play. The gameplay is straightforward too which also makes the Wild Luchador mobile slot very playable.

Wild Luchador Bonus Features

There are 2 main bonus features that spice up the gameplay in Wild Luchador. Expanding wilds can appear at random on any base game spin. There’s also a free spins round where your winnings are boosted by multipliers that are in play throughout the round.

Luchador Wilds feature

Each reel has its own Luchador wrestler. On any spin, you could hear a cannon blast which heralds the arrival of the Luchador Wilds feature. When these wrestler symbols land, they expand to fill the whole of the reel, turning it wild in the process. It’s possible to land multiple stacked wilds on the same spin. These stacked wild come in addition to the standard golden Champion Belt Wild.

Dead Slam Free Spins feature

Landing 3 or more Death Clock Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels on the same spin triggers the Dead Slam Free Spins feature. You can then look forward to 7 free spins.

Depending on how many scatters landed to trigger the feature, those free spins come with a 2x, 3x, or even a 5x multiplier attached:

• 3 scatters = 2x multiplier
• 4 scatters = 3x multiplier
• 5 scatters = 5x multiplier

This multiplier remains active for the whole of the free spins round. You can expect to see the Luchador Wilds appear much more regularly during the feature than in the base game meaning more wild reels. Just like in the base game you can land up to 5 Luchador Wilds on any free spin.

In some territories, players have the option to pay 70 x your total stake and buy the Dead Slam Free Spins feature. Known as the Buy feature, opt for this and the number of scatters awarded is chosen randomly. This means you’ll get the standard 7 free spins but the multiplier could be any one of 2x, 3x or 5x. This isn’t available in the UK.

Wild Luchador Review Summary – 40,557 x stake wins possible

The Wild Luchadora slot is an enjoyable venture into the Mexican wrestling ring. The design here is terrific, which is just what we’ve come to expect from a Quickspin slot.

The gameplay here isn’t complex but the expanding wilds add plenty of flavour to the base game. However, it’s the free spins where the bigger wins will come from. This is because you benefit from multipliers and even more expanding wilds. The key is to trigger the Dead Slam Free Spins feature with a 5x multiplier (5 scatters).

Be warned though, Wild Luchador is a volatile slot and you can expect some potentially big bankroll swings. The max win of 40,557 x stake per spin is Quickspin’s highest number to date. If you can cope with the high variance, there’s plenty to like about this Mexican wrestling game.

If you fancy stepping into the ring, Lucha Maniacs by Yggdrasil Gaming and Luchadora by Thunderkick are recommended.
