Narcos is arguably one of the most successful Netflix originals to have been produced on the streaming platform, so it should be no surprise that a slot game developer has looked to take advantage of it.
Indeed, NetEnt have used a number of brands as a way of bringing players a new classic slot game and their Narcos slot game is certainly nothing new.
Gameplay
Some of the graphics used in this slot game were extremely impressive, therefore we already knew we were onto a winner when playing this game for our Narcos slot game review.
Indeed, the gameplay experience that can be felt is rather simple, thus making it easy for players of all levels to be able to enjoy all the action that it had to offer. Players will be able to try and form winning combinations across a grid that has five reels and three rows.
The game also features a huge 243 Ways to Win format and spins can take place from as little as €0.20 per turn. Those that want to place larger wagers can do so, with up to €400 per spin being able to be placed on the action.
NetEnt’s games all provide the same game panel at the bottom of the screen, however this just adds to the simplicity of their games. Players can find the ‘Bet Max’ function available at the bottom, as well as the ‘Autoplay’ feature. In addition, players can look to test this out by playing the Narcos Free Play version that can be found at the top of this page.
It is no surprise that the symbols available on the paytable include things that can all be associated with the Netflix original series. Those who have watched the hit series will already know that they expect weapons, cash and small aeroplanes. In addition, the characters of Pablo Escobar and DEA Agents, Steve Murphy and Javier Pena are a nice touch!
Feature Bonuses
One of the Narcos slot game bonuses that players need to keep an eye for includes the game’s Wild. This is represented by the DEA Badge and can activate the ‘Walking Wild’ feature. This bonus will see the icon have the power to move from right to left by one position on the grid before disappearing when it reaches the end or when no wins have been made.
The ‘Drive-by’ feature is also available and this is where a number of bullets will be fired through the grid at random and transform some of the highest valued icons of the paytable into extra Wilds when they are hit.
The ‘Locked Up’ feature is activated when three or more of the Pablo Escobar symbols appear on the reels. These icons will move together to form bigger wins as players will have the opportunity to win prizes of between 1x and 10x their stake.
In addition, three ‘Locked Up’ spins are awarded in which golden symbols, locked up symbols and blank icons all appear. The blank ones will stick to positions that they appear in, however groups of three or more of the golden and locked up icons will see more of those symbols added to the grid or see those that are already positioned to increase in value.
The ‘Free Spins’ game can be triggered when three of the car icons appear on reels one, three and five. A reward of 10 free spins will be handed out and the ‘Walking Wild’ feature will continue to remain available.
