Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The soundtrack of Pinata Popper: Dream Drop is a laid back guitar tune blended with bells and the rollicking cheers of a crowd. This will help players feel like they are at the center of a festive party.

Players are welcomed into the world of this slot by friendly colorfully embellished skulls. These suggest that the celebration at hand is for the Day of the Dead.

The backdrop behind the reels is a stunning view of a city illustrated in shades of purple, pink, blue. The lights of the city windows seem to echo the stars as a hazy mist drifts among the buildings. It’s easy to believe that supernatural occurrences might be taking place on this particular night.

Gameplay

Pinata Popper: Dream Drop is a seven reel, seven row slot. Wins are awarded for landing clusters of at least 5 matching symbols.

The maximum win for this slot is 10,000x the player’s total bet. This limit does not apply to the Dream Drop Jackpots (see further details below).

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

A re-spin is triggered when players land Pinata symbols. While the Pinatas remain stuck on the reels, respins will continue until no more Pinatas land. Then, a final respin is awarded and all Pinatas burst to reveal a symbol type in all positions marked around them.

Blue Pinata symbols reveal symbols in diagonal positions. Green Pinata symbols reveal symbols in horizontal and vertical positions while Red Pinata symbols reveal symbols all around themselves. Finally Orange Pinata symbols appear during the Bonus game and reveal multiplier values between 2x and 5x.

The Bonus game begins when players collect 3 Bonus symbols during a given round. Bonus symbols can appear on reels 3-5.

The Bonus game begins with 3 free spins with the spin count resetting whenever a Pinata symbol lands. After all spins have been depleted, all available Pinata symbols will burst to reveal their respective patterns.

For every Pinata pattern, a multiplier is awarded and ultimately applied to the total winnings of the round.

The Dream Drop Bonus can be triggered at random before any regular spin. Players must choose from 15 options until they reveal 3 matching prizes. Players are then awarded this prize. Rapid, Midi, Maxi, Major, and Mega prizes are all available to be won.

Bet Sizes, RTP and Variance

The return to player of this game is 94.00%, well below our yardstick for average of roughly 96%.

The range of bets on the site we tested ran from a minimum bet per spin of $/£/€0.20 up to a maximum of $/£/€100.00 per spin.

The volatility of Pinata Popper: Dream Drop is high which would have made this slot a good match for our preferred strategies if it offered a more favorable RTP.

Conclusion

We do not recommend this low RTP, high volatility Pinata-themed slot.

Unfortunately, this slot’s RTP is too low to merit a strong recommendation, despite its engaging atmosphere.

The bonus features are alluring, but mathematically-inclined players would do well to keep searching until they find a slot with a more promising RTP.
