Party in Rio Slot Machine

Pour yourself a cocktail and head to Rio for the ultimate carnival! This is the theme of Aristocrat’s slot machine, Party in Rio, which whooshes onto the screen in a blaze of colour and samba music. This is a relatively simple slot but it more than makes up for the lack of bonus rounds by the sheer bravado of its colourful theme. You can enjoy wilds, free spins, multipliers and a tasty 243 ways to win in this slot game, so despite the lack of bonus round players can still get ready to party.

The light-hearted theme features samba drums, whistles and music playing in the background, while the reels are covered with suitably fun-filled symbols, such as samba dancers, carnival crowns, drums, cocktails, party masks, and brightly plumed parrots. There are also the usual high card symbols here to bring the game back down to earth a touch – but have no fear, the partying continues with some pretty colourful payouts.

Samba Symbols and Party Payouts

Before you get dressed up for the carnival, you need to decide on your stake. You can play by selecting credits to bet per spin, which gives players a minimum stake of 9,000 credits and a maximum stake of 600,000 credits. The best symbol to look out for in regular play is the carnival crown symbol, which pays up to 5,000x your bet for 5 symbols together on an active payline. The second-best symbol is the carnival mask, which pays 2,000x your bet for 5 symbols.

Other high-paying symbols in the game are the drums, which pay up to 1,000x your bet, the cocktails which pay up to 500x your bet, and the parrots which pay up to 300x your bet for 5 symbols. The lower payouts are awarded by spinning the high cards symbols, which award from 100x your bet for 5 of the number 9 symbols up to 250x your bet for 5 of the King symbols.

The carnival dancer is the wild symbol in the game. This icon appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 and stands in for all the other symbols in the game, except the scatter, to create more potential matching combinations.

The scattered whistle is another special symbol in this game and awards scatter wins, paying up to 25x your bet when 5 appear anywhere on the reels. This icon pays both left to right and right to left. The party whistle also has the potential of triggering the free games round – perhaps the most lucrative of all the game’s festive features.

Samba Symbols and Party Payouts

Watch out for the whistle – this is where the party really starts. Spin at least three of these high-pitched symbols to trigger the Samba Free Games feature where you can enjoy up to 20 free games, during which all wins are doubled. On a new screen you can select one of the instruments on display to be awarded even more free games. This gives the opportunity to rack up some great payouts with the 2x multiplier making the cash-winning potential even more attractive.

That’s not all, because whenever you hit the carnival dancer on the reels during the free games round, you can also win a bonus prize of up to 20x your total bet. Plus, as this round is re-triggerable you could find yourself enjoying multiple sambas in one night. Phew!

Colourful Fun or a Party Pooper?

Party in Rio has a lot to live up to with its name suggesting all manner of excitement. Unfortunately, the lack of bonus features make this slot machine a bit simpler than we would have liked.

This is especially true when we compare this game with other Aristocrat slot machines that take advantage of the More Power Reels technology to create many more winning chances from extra reels and paylines.

The lack of special features aside, there are still 243 ways to win in Party in Rio, so small payouts here are plentiful. The wild symbols hit regularly and the scattered whistle often triggered the free spins round. While we were playing, these regular wins were enough to keep our bank roll topped up. Although the party is a slightly lacklustre affair, the main aim of the game is to provide a colourful theme and variety in winning opportunities, which it does – the music also adds a great dose of fun, carnival atmosphere.
