Build a gangster empire in El Patron from Stakelogic
Developer’s latest blockbuster video slot features a range of Wilds plus a Free Spins bonus that takes action to the boss level
Are you ready to dine with the boss? That is the question Stakelogic is asking players who dare to take to the streets and rise up through the ranks of its new gangster-themed slot, El Patron.
This is a game where players can build their own big-win empire with the help of a mob of Wilds including Expanding, Dropping and Multiplying. They all come together in an intense shoot-out during the Machine Gun Free Spins bonus.
The base game is packed with explosive action with 3,125 ways to win with each spin. There are additional reels that sit above and below the standard game and when the Action Bonus symbols align, the Action Feature is triggered.
The Free Spins bonus bursts into life when three Scatter symbols land anywhere on the reels awarding 12 Free Games. While the bonus is active, all Action Bonus symbols are replaced with the Machine Gun Action symbol.
While the machine gun shootout takes place, the Wilds on the top reel can be Normal, Multiplier or Sticky and when they align on the same reel, they will award the following:
Wild symbol: two to five Wild symbols land anywhere in view except the first reel.
Multiplier Wild symbols: two to five Multiplier Wild symbols with a Multiplier of x2, x3, x4 or x5 land anywhere in view except the first reel.
Sticky Wild symbols: one Sticky Wild symbol is locked in position until the end of Free Spins anywhere in view except the first reel.
The player can see all the reels affected by the feature by having the Machine Gun and Wild align on every reel that gets a Wild added by the feature. The Machine Gun can appear from different directions depending on the reels that have the symbol.
Cash is king in El Patron and that is why players have the option to Buy the Bonus – this makes three Scatters land to trigger the Free Spins feature. There are also three options to buy Free Games which includes:
Normal – three Scatters land to trigger 12 Free Spins – cost is 100x the bet
Deluxe – three Scatters land to trigger 22 Free Spins – cost is 300x the bet
Random – three Scatters land to trigger a random number of Free Spin – cost is 160x the bet
Olga Bajela, CCO at Stakelogic, said: “El Patron is one of our most explosive slot launches to date. Not only is the gangster theme packed with action, so too is the gameplay with plenty of bonuses to unlock or buy if the player has the cash to splash.
“This game has been developed to get pulses racing as players build their own gangster empire and walk away with some truly incredible wins. We look forward to seeing it land in the game lobbies of our operator partners and for players to test their nerve.”
