Pick a Pinata Slot Review

How to play

In Pick a Pinata slot, you’ll join the festivities as you smash your way to prizes. You will find a 3x5 playing grid on the screen that’s set against a backdrop of colorful pinatas and sombreros. There’s accompanying fiesta music too in the background to set you in a mood to scramble for prizes. To join the party, you need to set first your wager per spin. There are 25 paylines and you play all lines every spin. Your bet per spin starts at €0.25 and can move up to €500 in case you want to play the maximum bet. Just click the ‘Play’ button to spin the reels and land the winning pinatas.

In Pick a Pinata slot, all wins start left to right with at least three matching symbols. An Autoplay option is also in place and best for players who want to plan out their spins and set limits. This feature also helps players who want to play the game responsibly. Although you can spin the reels automatically, you can set stops too depending on several parameters, like after collecting a win.

Symbols and payouts

This game is all about pinatas and the festivities that these represent. When spinning the reels, you’ll find 11 paying symbols and special symbols in the form of colorful animal pinatas. For the high-paying symbols, you can find the number 7s, cherries, watermelons, bananas, and chilies in pinata designs. From these symbols, you’ll get the biggest payout from the number 7s, which offer up to 32x your bet when landing five symbols. The cherries and watermelons are next in line. These deliver 16x and 20x your bet respectively. Bananas and chilies come next – with both offering up to 8x and 6x your bet.

The Pick a Pinata slot also boasts low-paying symbols in the form of playing card suits in pinatas. The As and Ks are the best-paying symbols from this bunch. These offer up to 6x your bet when landing five matching symbols. Just like other slot machines, there’s a wild symbol that can substitute for other symbols except for the game’s scatter.

Best Pick a Pinata bonus feature

The party on the reels becomes more colorful when you enter the Pick a Pinata bonus round. You can activate the game’s bonus by landing at least three scattered symbols. Once you trigger this bonus round, you’ll collect ‘attempts’ that you can use to smash the pinatas to reveal the prizes. Think of these attempts as your Pick a Pinata free spins and the number of attempts credited to your account depends on the number of scatters. 

Landing three, four, or five scattered symbols will reward you with one, two, or three attempts. Also, the number of scatters will set the number of pinatas displayed during the bonus round. So if you land three, four, or five scatters, the game will display five, 10, and 15 colorful pinatas. There’s no strategy involved in playing the bonus round. There are random pinatas that will hang on the screen, and you simply pick or smash the one that you think carries the biggest prize. This feature helps make this slot machine a fun game to play as it replicates what happens in actual festivities and parties. And during the Pick a Pinata bonus round, the broken pinatas will reveal random prizes up to 1,000x your total bet!

RTP & volatility

Pick a Pinata slot offers a colorful theme with lots of things happening on the reels. Playing this slot machine is like joining a virtual party: you strike colorful pinatas in the hope of landing big prizes.

Just like other Green Jade Games slots, there’s no published information on the game’s volatility although the Pick a Pinata RTP stands at 94.19%.
