It’s not every day you get to see a video pokie game which is so gruesome and fun at the same time as Grim Muerto. The name of the game has a Mexican touch and comes from a very popular holiday called Day of the Dead.
Even though death is rarely something that is celebrated in most countries around the world, Mexico organizes a full fiesta to celebrate this great day. Adding to the overall fun design of Grim Muerto are the symbols on the reels. Along with the well known sounds of a fiesta in the background the main symbols of Grim Muerto, 4 skeleton mariachi members, make the party even more alive and joyful.
The designers added a funny tone to the game theme by creating funny, cartoon like symbols and by implementing a great mariachi background music. The animations are on a high level, along with the symbol details, making Grim Muerto an attractive video pokie game in every view.
Developers
Grim Muerto is the latest video pokie game we had a chance to see from Play N’ Go software. This software provider launched a big number of new video pokie games in the past few months, focusing on a new design and utilizing interesting game themes.
For this game the designers managed to create an excellent combination between a grim theme and a funny design. The end result is a top of the line video pokie game, which fits the Play N’ Go pokies collection perfectly.
How to Play
Grim Muerto features a standard Play N’ Go design with 20 active pay lines, 5 reels and 3 rows. Most of the Play N’ Go pokie games are designed in this way.
The bet levels on Grim Muerto go from the minimum $0.20 up to the maximum $100 per spin. They can be adjusted by manipulating the Coins Size button and the Coins per line button. If you want to enjoy watching the fiesta from the comfort of your chair you can always use the Auto Play button.
Special Features
The designers of Grim Muerto made sure to install an interesting set of bonus features, to keep players occupied and complement the overall game theme.
You will notice that as you spin the reels in base play, one reel is highlighted compared to the rest. The villain behind the lights is Marco Siniestro, enabling the Wild to expand over the entire highlighted reel once it lands on it. During the free spins even Marco is in a great mood and can award anywhere from 2 to 5 highlighted reels in each spin.
The Free spins bonus in Grim Muerto is triggered when 3 scattered Books land on the reels. What’s great about this game is that whenever 2 scatters land on the reels and the third one is missing you still have a chance to trigger the bonus or win a payout from x2 to x10 total bet.
This is called the second chance feature where the mariachi band is offered as 4 symbols and only one of them hides the third scattered book. If you are lucky enough to find it you will be awarded with 10 free spins. There are no multipliers attached to this feature, but even better one of the Mariachi symbols is chosen to serve as an extra wild symbol during the free spins.
This means that during the free spins there will be 2 wild symbols in play, which combined with the 2 to 5 highlighted reels by Marco Siniestro can award 2 to 5 wild reels accordingly and a great payout. Players also have a chance to win anywhere from 3, 6 or 10 extra free spins if 1, 2 or 3 candles land on the reels.
Maximums Payout
