Pragmatic Play’s New Aztec Bonanza Slot Arrives with 7,776 Ways to Win
Pragmatic Play’s new Aztec-themed slot features 5x6 reels, with ways to win increasing from 384 to 7,776 as features unlock.
The game transports players to a tranquil Amazon Forest, where an Aztec temple and totem stand among the greenery. Its peaceful backdrop sets the scene for a feature-rich slot experience.
Wins can build as the game’s features activate in sequence. The article describes 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 raises 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 chances for combinations during tumbles or free spins. According to the review, players reach this expanded stage by unlocking free spins or landing consecutive winning combinations as the reels tumble.
After a winning combination, those symbols disappear and the symbols above drop into their place. A single spin can therefore produce multiple wins. The review says that enough tumble wins start to unlock the stone slabs; when all are cleared, the game awards five free spins on the full 5x6 layout, with 30 symbol positions and 7,776 ways to win.
The game may take some time to learn, as its reels and features work together to unlock larger prizes. The article 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 said desktop and mobile versions both featured animations, 3D graphics, colour, tumbling reels and the same features. It also listed quick spins, a mobile battery-saver mode, full-screen viewing, SFX and ambient sound controls, plus bets ranging from 0.30 per spin to 150.00 per tumble.
Pragmatic Play had a busy February release schedule, including the Mysterious slot, Golden Beauty, Super 7s and Master Joker. The developer also announced plans to add Live Casino at Playfortuna and Leo Vegas online casinos. March looked just as packed, with more new slot releases expected, including The Wild Machine, Dance Party and Wild West Gold.
