Game Overview
The terms legend and world-class are thrown around in modern football a little too loosely for my liking, with most players being labelled as a generational talent after just a few good games with a 100 million euro price tag then being placed on their heads. I’m not saying there aren’t some fantastic footballers in the top leagues, but none are in the same bracket as the subject of the Blueprint Gaming slot we’re reviewing today, titled Maradona El Diez. Yes, you’ve got it, slot fans; Blueprint has decided to make a sequel to their original DS10 Maradona slot, which featured the Hold & Win mechanic.
If you were shouting from the terraces when that title was released, you’ll be pleased to know that there’s more of the same, as Maradona El Diez is an upgraded version of that game, with more Hold & Win collect features for you to trigger as you work your way through the slot. As for the main stats of the game, we’ve got a 5-reel machine with 10 paylines, an RTP of 95%, and a maximum win of 50,000x the bet.
Gameplay & Features
Like the original slot, Maradona El Diez is played over a 5×3 reel configuration with 10 fixed paylines. A win will be awarded when three or more matching symbols connect over an active payline. Players can join Diego with a minimum bet of €0.10, while the game’s max stake reaches €100.
Cash Collect
When entering the game, the standard cash collect symbol is active on reel 5, whilst on reels 1 to 4, footballs with a cash value or jackpot prize can land. If at least five cash/jackpots land simultaneously as a collect symbol, the cash collect feature will be triggered, which will see the collect symbol expand the entire length of the reel and collect all values in view. Once the feature ends, a new collect symbol will be unlocked.
Modifiers
During any spin there is a chance one of the following modifers can trigger.
- Lose to win
- Cash add
- Bonus boost
- Wild add
Free Spins Feature
Landing three scatter symbols in view will trigger the bonus round, and 10 free spins will be awarded. Whilst the bonus is active, a trial is active at the top of the reels, where hitting enough collect symbols will award additional multipliers and more free spins.
Pros
- It's a slot based on a true icon of the game.
- The max win of 50,000x the bet.
Cons
- Is the maximum win really achievable? I doubt it.
- There are already many games in this Blueprint catalogue in this style.
Maradona El Diez Slot Review Final Thoughts
Blueprint has clearly had great success from these styles of games, as we have seen King Kong and The Goonies get transformed into a collect/hold & win slot in the past, both then getting an additional upgrade later on down the line. Was it worth doing the same to the DS10 Maradona slot? I'd say not really, but you may disagree. Either way, if you like the route Blueprint is taking with these games you've now got another to choose from.
