The streets are filling up with people and a party mood is taking hold. The sweet melody of Mariachi music begins to fill the air as revellers dance themselves into a frenzy of celebration. The venue for this annual fiesta is a typical Megaways grid. The main panel has six reels with positions that change in number from two to seven on each spin, helping to create as many as 117,649 ways to win!
To get the party started, use the game controls below or alongside the reels to set your stake from 0.20 and 20 credits. Then hit the spin button to turn the reels and see what fun-filled festivities are waiting around the next corner in this mobile casino game. To earn wins, you’ll need to match three or more symbols on the reels, the values of which can be easily seen on the paytable.
Symbols and payouts
Starting at the bottom of the paytable are the traditional playing cards of 9, 10, J, Q, K and A, with a payout range from 0.10x your stake to 1.5x for a six of a kind winning way. More valuable than these are the mariachi instruments like maracas, trumpets, violins and guitars. The most lucrative guitar symbol pays double your stake for two of a kind all the way up to 50x for a band of six.
The scatter symbol is a gold bar with a sombrero on it that can appear only on the main reels. Landing four of these will trigger a round of 10 free spins and every additional scatter adds two more free spins. The wild symbol is an exploding “W” and can only land on the extra reel above the main grid, except during the Sombrero Spin Feature when the main reels can also go wild.
Special symbols are key to cashing in on Dia Del Mariachi, but they only offer rewards if a randomly triggered Sombrero Spin bonus round happens first. The piñata will multiply your bet by 2x, 3x, 5x or 10x; the rocket turns itself wild as well as 2-3 random positions on the reels; the firecracker turns itself wild and all symbols below except for scatters; and lastly, the Bonus Wheel offers one spin for the chance to win a jackpot worth 15x, 50x, 500x or 10,000x your bet!
Bonuses and special features
We mentioned earlier the huge potential for wins with Free Spins Scatters and special symbols on the extra reel above that award multipliers, wilds and jackpots. In addition, Rolling Reels ensure potential winning combinations are removed once they hit and the remaining symbols fall below, creating unexpected and exciting new win combinations. But if you’d rather not wait, you can also tap the yellow Buy Feature button and start your Free Spins instantly at a fixed cost of 80x your bet size.
