Diego's Spicy Truck review

Graphics, Sounds, and Animations

There are some seriously spicy wins up for grabs here - you could be throwing a fiesta of your own if you manage to bag the top prize of up to 20,000x your stake.

This delicious game is set down a little alleyway somewhere in Mexico, where you'll encounter the eponymous Diego and his food truck. Diego himself appears at the side of the game grid (which takes the form of the truck), biting into a tasty taco. As for the music, imagine a traditional Mariachi-style tune, complete with trumpets, maracas, and guitar chords.

Gameplay

We found the base gameplay here to be very standard. Diego's Spicy Truck is played on a grid with five reels and three rows. There are 20 fixed paylines. Symbols pay out when you land at least three matching ones on adjacent reels from left to right, on one of those 20 paylines.

The high-paying symbols are everything you'd expect to see in a Mexican-inspired game. Look out for tacos, tequila, and a bowl of yummy guacamole. Lower-paying symbols are the A, K, Q, and J symbols, in funky colors.

Wilds, Bonuses, and Free Spins

Diego is the Wild symbol. He can substitute for other regular symbols on the grid, to help you create winning combinations.

The game comes with three different flaming chili symbols, which appear during the base game only. Depending on the color of the chili, one of three Bonus Respins rounds can be triggered. Each round has a different special feature, for example, Jackpots or Collector symbols. The Jackpot feature offers four potential payouts, the biggest being 5,000x your stake. During Respins, Coin symbols can also appear with a Multiplier ranging from 0.5x to 30x.

Bet Sizes, RTP, and Variance

While the biggest fixed jackpot amount on this slot game is 5,000x your stake, the maximum you can win on a single spin is a generous 20,000x. You can bet between $/€/£0.20 and $/€/£180 per spin.

The Return to Player (RTP) percentage, on the other hand, was a bit of a disappointment for us, as it stands at 95%, which is lower than the industry average of 96%, which we prefer to see. Although high volatility somewhat makes up for it, as it creates entertaining gameplay with the potential for larger wins.

Conclusion

We were huge fans of the spicy, Mexican-inspired theme of this game. General gameplay is simple, but there are enough special features to keep things interesting, and that juicy jackpot of up to 5,000x your stake is certainly attractive. The only real downside for us was the RTP, which is a little low for our liking.
