I have a friend called Catrina… she’s always broke though, constantly tapping me up for a few coins. Something tells me she has absolutely nothing to do with Quickspin’s Catrina’s Coins slot machine then, which makes for a pretty pointless introduction, but you guys know how much I love to share a personal anecdote or two whenever I write these reviews, don’t you? Alas, it’s time to get down to business. Catrina’s Coins is a 20 payline machine with a 96.06% RTP and a maximum ‘Starpot’ of 2,000x the total bet – as far as I can tell, there’s nothing in the rules that prevents you from winning more than one of those bad boy’s per round, though, and you can even hit a 5x multiplier for a maximum overall jackpot of 10,000x
If you’re wondering about features, Catrina’s Coins promises well… Catrina’s Coins, Pinata Multipliers, Starpots, and the Pueblo Del Cielo Bonus. Let’s start with the Pinata Multipliers – when these symbols land, they’ll add a random multiplier of up to 5x to your current board win, including Starpot wins. You only need a single star on reel five to win a Starpot during the base game, which is convenient – reel five is the only one that contains stars during the base game! In the bonus round, you’ll find them on all five reels, making a jackpot five times more likely. Catrina’s Coins act as the scatter symbols here, and your reward for hitting three of them is a three-spin feature that can also be bought for 60x the total bet.
Personally, I often find circuses a tad creepy – don’t worry though, Ronald McDonald isn’t lurking anywhere in QuickSpin’s acrobatic extraordinaire – you never know though, so pack some clean underwear and fire up our free Catrina’s Coins slot demo, available below.

Catrina’s Coins Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
If you’re a tad less irrationally afraid of the McDonald’s mascot than I am, then be sure to check out some more of our circus-themed slots – I’m sure they’re full of clowns for you to laugh at whilst I cower in the corner! Just kidding, of course, I’m not really that big of a wimp. Honest. There’s Circus Delight from PG Soft, a favourite of ours here at Demoslot, Skywind’s Big Top Bonanza, and what kind of reviewer would I be if I didn’t tell you about Play’N’Go’s Three Clown Monty? As far as the circus theme is concerned, I’d argue that Skywind and Quickspin are on a tie here. Both games definitely give you a great feeling of being back in that big top as a kid, wondering why this is more interesting than typing out lines of BASIC on your Commodore 64 (or AMOS/Blitz on your Amiga if you are part of my generation!).
Enough clowning around – how much does Quickspin’s Catrina’s Coins slot pay? Five wilds on a payline will score you 75x your total bet as the only “high-paying” symbol. Whilst that does seem a little disappointing, The female character symbol is still worth 37.5x for all five symbols, whilst the magical skull-bearing top hat will net you 20x the current stake in profits. A bottle of tequila will get you 15x for a five of a kind combination (you know what, this sounds like my kind of circus after all!), and the green chilli peppers are the last of the medium-pays at 10x for a complete line of five. As for the low pays, you’ll get 1.25x your bet for five jacks or 3.75x for five aces. Better hope for some of those magical multipliers to boost those prizes, eh?
As for the betting range, we get €0.20 at one end of the scale and €100.00 at the other – pretty standard numbers nowadays, but Quickspin has been kind enough to let us bet plenty of other amounts between the two limits. Other slot developers take note! How hard is this, really?
Catrina’s Coins Slot Base Game
The basic gameplay in Quickspin’s Catrina’s Coins slot gives the impression that you are playing a carnival game concealed behind some fairly sketchy-looking doors hidden away in the corner of the circus; well, this is an 18+ game, after all! It’s a three-row, five-reel machine, which makes the 20 fixed paylines seem like a perfect pairing. Of course, you’ll need to line three of those symbols up on a payline starting from the left reel to win a prize… unless you manage to hit one of those magical coins, that is!
Piñatas
Landing a pinata symbol reveals a random multiplier of 2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x, and these multipliers are applied to both STARS and regular line wins during the base game. During the bonus round, pinata multipliers are applied to Catrina’s Coin wins, too!
Stars
Landing a STAR symbol awards a fixed STARPOT of 2,000x, 500x, 100x, or 20x the total bet. These symbols appear on reel five of the base game and all five reels in the PUEBLO DEL CIELO Bonus round.
Catrina’s Coins Slot Bonus Features
Landing three or more Catrina’s Coins during the base game will trigger the main bonus round. At that time, your coins will be transferred into the bonus reels, where they will remain for the duration of the feature – this gives a very definite advantage to hitting more than three scatter symbols. Catrina’s Coins have a multiplier value of between 1x and 5x in the bonus round.
Pueblo Del Cielo Bonus
This is a three-spin feature – every time a symbol lands, you’ll have your life counter rest back to the original three. Go three spins in a row with no symbols landing, and it’s game over, cowboy. Sounds easy? Hold your horses, my son, as the reels used in this mode feature only special symbols, making this much tougher than it sounds!
Fortunately, Quickspin has levelled the playfield for you by ensuring that both STARS and CATRINA COINS are multiplied by the PINATA symbols, which are by far the most common that you will encounter here. All multipliers are added together before being applied to your final value to determine the total win of the bonus round.
Bonus Buy
Fancy a crack at the all-important bonus round without waiting for those pesky scatter symbols? Quickspin has you covered – provided you’ll chuck them 60x the total bet, of course!
Pros
- A unique blend of interesting visuals and original gameplay.
- The jackpot is better than average at 10,000x the total bet
- Not just another weird circus-themed slot!
Cons
- The bonus can’t have a very large share of the RTP assigned to it when it costs only 60x the total bet – although that can also be seen as a good thing.
- Multiple multiplier symbols, some of which only work in the base game, can be a tad confusing at times.
