Pragmatic Play’s New Aztec Bonanza Slot Features 7,776 Ways to Win
Pragmatic Play’s Aztec-inspired slot has 5x6 reels. Its ways to win can increase from 384 to 7,776 as features become active.
The game places players in a serene Amazon rainforest setting, where an Aztec temple and totem sit amid the greenery. The tranquil backdrop leads into a feature-rich slot experience.
Features can activate in sequence to build on wins. In its description of the game, the review explains how Aztec Bonanza uses a ‘tumbling reels feature’ to bring new symbols into play after a win.
Instead of paylines, the slot starts with 384 ways to win and 18 visible symbols. Stone slabs cover the four corners of the reels; unlocking them expands the layout to 30 visible symbols and increases the total to 7,776 ways to win.
Clearing slabs also introduces mystery symbols, removes lower-paying symbols from the reels and adds 2x2 symbol blocks, creating more opportunities for combinations during tumbles or free spins. The review says players unlock this expanded stage by triggering free spins or landing consecutive wins as the reels tumble.
After a winning combination, its symbols vanish and those above fall into the empty spaces, allowing several wins on one spin. The review notes that repeated tumbles unlock the stone slabs; clearing them all awards five free spins on the full 5x6 layout, featuring 30 symbol positions and 7,776 ways to win.
The game may take a little time to learn, as its reels and features work together to unlock larger prizes. The review considered Aztec Bonanza a possible contender for Pragmatic Play’s slot of the year, while noting that the year was still in progress.
The review reported that desktop and mobile versions shared the same animations, 3D graphics, colours, tumbling reels and features. It also listed quick spins, a mobile battery-saver mode, full-screen viewing, SFX and ambient-sound controls, and bets from 0.30 per spin to 150.00 per tumble.
Pragmatic Play released several games in February, including the Mysterious slot, Golden Beauty, Super 7s and Master Joker. The studio also announced plans to add Live Casino at Playfortuna and Leo Vegas online casinos. Its March release schedule was similarly full, with new slots expected soon, including The Wild Machine, Dance Party and Wild West Gold.
