Powered by Play’n Go, Samba Carnival is a shimmering summery video slot with a real party feel. The game has five reels and 15 paylines and can be played for between 15p and £75 per spin. All of the action takes place within the base game.
Theme
The carnival atmosphere of Rio is ever-present in this slot. The celebratory music of the soundtrack fits well with the bright and colourful graphics. Symbols include women in different colours of feathered carnival costumes as well as tropical fruits. Bongo drums act as the scatter symbol and the wild is represented by maracas.
Wild Multiplier
There are four varieties of wild symbol in Samba Carnival. Each includes a different number of maracas with a multiplier displayed in gold lettering over the top. Whenever you create a winning combination using a wild symbol, the multiplier shown will be applied to your payout. You can land a 2x, 3x, 4x or even 5x multiplier using wild symbols.
Samba Bonus
The bongo drum scatter symbols only appear on reels one, three and five. If you land a scatter on each of these reels simultaneously you’ll be rewarded with the Samba Bonus. Each set of drums has its own colour assigned and when you get three at the same time they will pop out of the reels and increase in size. You’ll then be asked to pick one of the symbols and this will reveal the number of coins you’ve won. You can win up to 150 times your stake with this feature.
Verdict
Bright, fun and captivating, Samba Carnival is an incredibly entertaining slot to play, despite not offering much in the way of bonus games. The addition of multipliers to the wild symbols does add excitement to the base game as you can walk away with some pretty decent wins.
