Symbol Wins

Before we take a look at our table including all the symbols in Catrina’s Coins, we’ll tell you more about the 8 regular symbols of this game. The symbols are split into two different categories, the lows and the highs, giving players the standard card royals and a selection of different typical Mexican symbols such as chilli, tequila, and the Mexican sombrero. The different symbols can land on the reels, and lead to even bigger wins on each spin in comparison with the low value symbols. The same is true for the game’s wild symbols, which are meant to substitute for any other regular symbols. These are available on all reels, and they can also lead to winning combinations, paying up to 75x the stake for combinations of 5-of-a-kind. Here is more about the different symbols in this new online pokie game:

Payout Metrics

The Catrina’s Coins online pokie is known for its highly volatility, rated by the Quickspin developers 5 out of 5, so take this into account when it comes to your returns. Yet, possible payouts are pretty impressive, as you can hope for wins up to 10,150x the bet on a single spin. There are three different Catrina’s Coins RTP, so the exact percentage may depend on the online casino you’re signed up to. Luckily, this can be easily checked in the paytable, be sure to this before you make your first real money spin. We stick to online casinos that are available for New Zealanders and work the highest RTP as much as possible. The highest RTP for Catrina’s Coins is set at 96.06%, which is a whisker above average, and the other two are 94.18% and 87.07%, which are dreadful, especially the latter.

Summary

There are a lot of Día de los Muertos pokies out there which is thanks to all the colours that can be easily blended into a casino game. Out of all the options available, the Catrina’s Coins pokie is yet another release that is going to be popular amongst many gambling enthusiasts in New Zealand. Fitting the typical Mexican theme, we very much enjoyed the game’s look and feel. The same holds true for the audio options in this game and we didn’t feel like muting the sound at any time. Add the top win potential of 10,151x the stake, and the excellent RTP rate, you’ll understand why we believe that most games will enjoy this Catrina’s Coins as much as we do. The audiovisual part combines perfectly.

At the same time, we do think that the bonus features could have been a lot better in order to have the most potential. All together, this is fun online pokie but with developers like Nolimit City and Hacksaw Gaming getting the absolute max out of their new productions, a lot of other studios try to stick around the average range. This is why we gave this new online pokie a 7 star rating although a 6.5 rating is probably better. Catrina’s Coins is yet another safe move by Quickspin. For players not sure whether this game will fit them, we suggest checking out the free demo version and testing the game yourself. Once you’re fully confident about the game and want to make your real money spins you can go ahead and start playing the game with bets from $ 0.20.
