Catrina: Amor Eterno Slot Review
Game Layout: 5 Reels x 3 Rows Release date: 8 November 2020 Gameplay
Dia de Los Muertos is the day when people can meet their loved ones that have passed away. It’s a day of joy, music and food as relatives and friends are celebrated. Our main character Catrina has come to meet her lover, her late husband Fernando. Regarding the plot, that’s pretty much the whole story, so don’t expect closure. To be fair there is rarely a closure in stories you find on slots. Anyway, Catrina: Amor Eterno Is fully 3D, which makes the trip to cemetery much more immersive. If 3D designs are done well they can do wonders for the presentation, if done poorly, then the slot becomes weird and sometimes a bit creepy. Catrina: Amor Eterno finds itself somewhere in the middle as symbols and scenery look quite nice, but Caterina herself waddles around awkwardly all the time. But other visual effects spark up the liveliness of slot, so overall we can say, job well done. The music also is a nice touch.
Staying on the topic of visuals, Catrina: Amor Eterno features 10 3D symbols, which portray different parts of Dia de Los Muertos and Mexican culture in general. There is no clear distinction between low and high paying symbols. Starting from the lowest value we have a tequila bottle, guitar, pinata, cactus, lantern, mask, marigold bouquet and a ring, presumably from the marriage. This was quite unexpected, but Catrina: Amor Eterno slot features a tumble mechanism, meaning that all winnings symbols disappear and then get replaced by new ones. This also triggers a Respin which then can bring more Respins if you stack up a couple of combinations.
Payouts
By now, we have more or less established a positive impression about Catrina: Amor Eterno. Payouts might be what rocks the boat a bit though, as not all stats are as pretty as the celebration. For instance, the RTP is quite low, averaging 95.22%. This doesn’t mean that you are completely muddled, you’re just going to have a slightly tougher time. Triple Cherry have gone with a medium-high volatility setting. Potential-wise, Caterina: Amor Eterno is not the most rewarding slot. Max win is capped at 1185x. While not a bad chance, it’s nothing too impressive for modern standards. For your playing session bets can be placed between 0.25 and 20.
Bonus Features
As always, we will cover the feature that is available throughout the main game and then we will take a look at a feature that is strictly the bonus game. So first up on Catrina: Amor Eterno we have the Wild Multipliers. These are five tombstones that cover each reel. Every wild symbol increases the multiplier by one on the specific reel where it is located. As long as new wilds and new wins are coming in, you can rack up the multiplier, as long as new Respins are constantly happening.

For the Calavera Roulette bonus feature, you will need to pick up 3 sombreros. Once accomplished, a roulette spin will take a place. Calavera Roulette includes different rewards, like a multiplier or Free Spins, so even if you manage to get 3 scatters it doesn’t mean that Free Spins are guaranteed. Thankfully this Catrina: Amor Eterno slot feature is fairly easy to trigger. It is also interesting how during the Free Spins phase extra spins can be acquired by landing scatters which now have a different look, but they still trigger the Calavera Roulette which is a bit unusual.
Conclusion
Dia de Los Muertos may be over, but we still have slots like Catrina: Amor Eterno to remind us of the wonderful celebration. We cannot surely say that this slot is as wonderful as the celebration because it does come with some flaws. The visual presentation is a welcome one, the 3D effects may seem quirky sometimes, but overall they are well done. The problem lies in the gameplay. There is a lack of excitement when scoring wins and bonus roulette, good payouts are quite hard to come by. With that being said, Catrina: Amor Eterno is mainly focused on a fun presentation rather than actually being competitive and rewarding. Catrina: Amor Eterno is a good slot, but it’s not gonna cut it for major “printers”.
