ChilliPop Slots
Chillies… not the most obvious inspiration for a slot game, yet they appear in this game. We're giving away part of the theme there, but since they are mentioned in the title, we're not revealing too much.
Chilli Pop is certainly worth exploring, and we help you do that in our full review here. So, it's time to spend a few moments with us as we learn more about this slot game.
Do you know the game studio?
If not, we can tell you that Betsoft released this one.
Do they supply the usual demo?
They do, as we expected they would. All modern releases from Betsoft seem to have this, which is nice to know.
The theme covers more than just chillies
Yes, we are visiting Mexico for this one, so you can expect a relevant background to set the mood, including cacti. There are plenty of chillies involved, and you might even see other veggies too.
Another impressive design from Betsoft
Chillies, Mexican detailing, and more… it all looks just as appealing as you would expect, given that this is a Betsoft game.
Playing the Chilli Pop slot
If you wondered whether this would have five reels and three symbols on each, well done… you got it right. You won't get any progressives on the screen though.
Wild pinatas might land as you spin the reels, and they're ideal to find. They sub for most other icons except for the mule. The wilds here are powerful because multiple ones bring multipliers… appropriate! It's also possible to land the wild all over the place. Trying to fill the screen with them is the ideal outcome here.
No paylines here
So, does that mean way wins? No… this works on cluster pays - surprising for a 5 x 3 game but there is a reason for it we'll come to shortly.
One bet on each spin
Cluster pays slots ask for a bet on each spin. They also use a multiplier to cover all the possibilities, and in this case the multiplier is 50x. Since the cheapest coin is a penny, it means you need to play a minimum of 50 cents per spin in Chilli Pop. The biggest coin is worth $1.
Look for the question mark…
Find it and you've found the paytable. It doesn't take long to do.
Watch for some explosions
This is a bonus feature you can see anytime you find a winning combo. Everything in the cluster explodes. Everything above drops to fill those positions. You then have new icons fill the gaps from above.
Can the mule offer some free games?
The scattered mule is great to see in action. Three mules bring you five free games, but you can get many more mules in the triggering spin to earn more games. If you managed to find a mule in every reel position, you'd get 26 freebies.
During these games, you collect all the mules that land on the reels. When you reach five, you'll notice the game reels increasing in size. The biggest area to achieve is 8 x 8. You'd need 70 mules to achieve that. If you can do it, you stand a chance of landing a wild in every position, triggering the maximum wild prize along the way.
What's the RTP for Chilli Pop?
You can get other Betsoft games with bigger values, but this one still gives you an RTP of 95.38%.
How do we rate Chilli Pop slots?
We like this one a lot, especially when we manage to reach the free games. It's entertaining and unusual, worthy of nine points out of 10.
How much could be won during the game?
It depends how things pan out, of course, but if you get to the free spins and find lots of mules to make the game area bigger, the prize chances get bigger too. Wild
multipliers make things more appealing as well.
The demo game is entertaining on its own
You can always find lots of potential to enjoy in this game. We could happily play Chilli Pop for ages without making any real wagers.
Check your wagers before playing for real
The slot game is great to play, for sure, but make sure you have a budget, and you can afford the minimum bet on each spin before switching to real play.
Betsoft also allows mobile play on this game
As you would expect, right? This modern slot from Betsoft looks superb on a smaller screen as well.
