HOW TO PLAY NARCOS

We all heard stories about Pablo Escobar, who represents a Scatter that triggers the Locked Up feature, and his biggest enemy, the DEA agent Steve Murphy, who tried to bring him to justice. Well, there are plenty of other characters appearing on the reels, like Escobar’s friend and a drug lord Gacha, Murphy’s colleague, Javier Pena and one of the many Beauties from Escobar’s luxurious life.

His Car is the Scatter that triggers the Free Spins feature, while the DEA Badge is the Wild that substitutes for all regular symbols. There are Flamingos, Airplanes and playing cards surrounded by Weapons, Bombs and Dinero.

You do not have to be an experienced cop or a drug lord in order to understand the rules of the game. The 2019 release features five reels, three rows and offers 243 ways to win. Three of a kind is the minimum for landing payouts, so all you need to do is land at least three matching symbols on successive reels, starting from the far left reel.

Before you start spinning the reels, you should set the coin value ($0.01-$2) and the bet level (1-10). Betting starts at $0.20 and the maximum possible wager cannot go over $200 per single spin.

EXTRA FEATURES

This is where things become interesting. First of all, we have the Walking Wild feature. Wilds that are a part of the winning combination will remain on the reels, while other symbols perform a respin. Wilds will move one position to the left and will drop off the reels only if they are no longer a part of a winning combo, or reach reel 1.

There is the Drive-By feature, triggered randomly during base game. A car will pass the reels and people will start shooting at high-paying symbols. Some of those symbols will become Wilds.

Land three or more Escobar Scatters in the same row and you will trigger the Locked Up feature. Only Escobar and the Golden Suitcase appear during the feature. Gamers get 3 free spins. Three r more Escobar or Golden Suitcase symbols form a winning cluster. If, during the feature, the winning cluster increases, the number of free spins resets to 3.

The winning cluster formed from Golden Suitcases, gamers get multipliers, 2x or 3x, Symbol Upgrades, where symbols from the cluster get bigger value, and Big start value, which adds an extra value to the Golden Suitcases as a starting value.

Finally, we have the Free Spins feature, triggered by three Car Scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5. Gamers get 10 freebies, the Walking Wild feature is also active, while, after every spin, the criminals and the police start shooting, turning some of the high-paying symbols into Wilds. If it happens that you run out of freebies while the Walking Wilds feature is active, you get extra free spins until the feature is over.
