Slot machine details and review Rueda de Chile Bonus Buy
A slot machine from Evoplay, Rueda de Chile Bonus Buy, is one of the many options available to players, which uses a Mexico Day of the Dead-inspired theme, with all this entails, from delicious foods to skeletons turned into mariachis. Gameplay-wise, the action takes place on 5×3 reels, with winning combinations getting 20 paylines where they can be formed.
Every slot machine must be developed by a company that invented, designed and put it into operation. Many players eventually find that they only enjoy playing on machines from specific software provider, so they narrow down their selection by preferred brand.
A high volatility slot. Wins are rare, but can be really big. The game has more pronounced fluctuations and can often go without hitting anything for a long time, suitable for players who like adrenaline, higher risk and work with a larger budget. More about volatility here.
Slot theme and symbols
One of the more popular holidays in Mexico, particularly as far as foreigners are concerned, is the Day of the Dead. With skeletons turned into mariachi singers, shots of tequila, delicious local foods, and several colored skulls among its symbols, Rueda de Chile Bonus Buy does a decent job telling us about it. That being said, Iβve seen some impressive designs in online slots dedicated to this holiday, and I know that others do an even better job.
Rueda de Chile Bonus Buy theme and symbols
While at its core, this is a slot with five reels where you form combinations via paylines, and with 2-3+ matching symbols lined up, there are some things that it does differently, so itβs not as basic as it sounds. Whatβs a bigger issue in this case is the combination of high volatility with wins that only go up to 3,056x the stake. Luckily, its RTP is 96.01%, and long-term, this is a typical slot as far as the amount returned to players is concerned.

Money symbol
One of the special symbols you can get while playing Rueda de Chile, the Money symbol, is going to appear on four of the five reels (reels 2 to 5). Whenever they show up, they will have a value (1x to 20x the stake) or a fixed jackpot (Mini, Major, or Mega Jackpot).
Catrina symbol
A stacked symbol, Catrina occupies 3 positions on the 1st reel. If it lands partially visible, then the game nudges it so that it ends up occupying all positions there.
Catrinaβs Magic
Catrinaβs appearance guarantees you access to the feature known as Catrinaβs Magic. The game area expands by 1 to 3 rows on top of reels 2-5, while Catrina remains sticky on the 1st reel. You can get scatter symbols or money symbols, and you will collect all prizes from the latter when they show up (while regular symbols are grayed out, and they donβt form combinations).
Scatter symbol
You can also get Wheel of Fortune scatters on the reels 3-5. These have the featureβs own logo, and theyβre easy to recognize.
The Wheel of Fortune
Whenever you get 3 scatter symbols at the same time, on reels 3-5, you will get a spin on the Wheel of Fortune. The result of said spin can be a fixed jackpot (any of the three available, going from Mini to Mega) or free spins (options with 5, 10, 15, or 20 free spins).
Free Spins
The way to trigger the free spins is only through Wheel of Fortune spins. There are four variants, with 5, 10, 15x, and 20 free spins, which you can trigger. The game area can expand for reels 2-5 if Catrinaβs Magic is triggered inside. There is also a random modifier, which has Catrina throwing 1 to 3 Money symbols on the last four reels.
Bonus Buy
As the title says, this is a slot with a Bonus Buy option. What this means is that you can purchase access to the main feature. You can pay 20x the stake for 5 free spins, 40x for 10, 60x for 15, or 80x for 20 free spins.

Our rating of the game
Rueda de Chile Bonus Buy
Rueda de Chile Bonus Buy is not the sort of high volatility slot that will pay amazingly well, and a win of up to 3,056x the stake is not going to make a lot of players pay attention. Even so, its RTP is at a healthy 96.01%, so very similar to what a lot of other Mexico-themed games will offer. Itβs not a very impressive or unique list of special features, but there are differences in the way the collection mechanic works, and that might be worth checking out. Itβs not a beginner-friendly slot, due to its volatility.

How do we rate slot machines?
We evaluate slot machines based on multiple criteria, from which we make our final verdict.
Catrinaβs Magic feature, where you collect cash prizes and jackpots with an expanded game area.
It has a Wheel of Fortune feature, whose spin can result in either jackpots or free spins.
The Day of the Dead-inspired theme is still interesting to most players, even though lots of other slots use it.
Good graphics, and appropriate for the theme they chose for it, with a skeleton mariachi in the lead role.
A Bonus Buy option is available, with several variants at different price points.
Cons
Its high volatility is not going to make it likable with players, and the experience is likely to be bad for most.
It pays at most 3,056x the stake, and thatβs for its very best spins, so given the risk, it doesnβt feel like itβs enough.
You donβt get any wild symbols to help you form more winning combinations.
