Homage to the life and work of the globally-famous football player Diego Maradona arrived in November 2022. Not only a premium addition to Blueprint Gaming’s prolific catalogue, but an instant smashing hit among gamblers, D1OS Maradona online slot delivers an exciting and rewarding playing experience. This game showcases Wild Substitutions, four awesome Cash Collect Features and a Free Spins Game.
A traditional 5x3 gameboard is set against the backdrop of a collage containing imagery from Maradona’s prolific career. There are 20 fixed paylines on which you can place your wagers. Select a bet value from a scale between $0.20 and $100.00 and tap Spin. A minimum of 3 matching icons aligned on adjacent winline positions from left to right award payouts. To have the reels spinning without your interference, activate Autoplay. If you are willing to invest 25% more in the D1OS Bet, chances to get Free Spins are doubled.
We would have expected more themed-related icons on the lower part of the Paytable, yet once again we face Playing card Royals. Whenever 5 Jack through Ace icons form a win, you’ll receive 5x your stake. As for Premiums, these include four Jerseys: Boca Juniors, Barcelona, Napoli and Argentina. Landing a combo of 5 issues prizes from 7.50x to 40x the wager. Wild, depicted with the Argentinian flag, substitutes all other icons excluding Scatter and Money symbols. Scatter is represented with Maradona himself and is in charge of triggering Free Spins. You’ll need D1OS Scatter, present on the 5th reel only, to activate the Cash Collect Bonus. One more special icon is the Money symbol depicted with a golden Football.
As said, Money symbols appear throughout base game on all reels but the final. When D1OS Scatter lands on the final reel, it expands to cover it and trigger one of the four Cash Collect Features, depending on the jersey Maradona is wearing. You could walk away with all Money symbol values collected or receive an up to 5x Multiplier in Barcelona and Argentina Features. If Napoli is active, your cash prize will get a boost and if Boca Juniors is in play, a Respin is granted. During the Respin, all Money symbols are held and new ones hitting award more Respins. Entrance to the Free Spins Round is granted when 3 Scatters hit any position on reels 2, 3 and 4. All Money symbols that appear throughout play are added to a pot and issued at the end of the Bonus, as the Collect icon is bound to land on the final spin.
The somewhat below RTP of 95% is coupled with high volatility, so you’ll have to be extra patient while waiting for more meaningful sums. If you’re a football fan and Maradona devotee, this is the game you should check out. Just pick a device that you like the most, desktop or any hand-held, and give it a go.
