Taco Fury XXXtreme Overview
NetEnt has released two games in their XXtreme series. Starting with Starburst XXXtreme and later Milkshake XXXtreme. And now there is a third title, Taco Fury XXXtreme.
The XXtreme refers to the fact that you can activate XXXtreme bet. A much higher bet per spin, but guaranteed features and bonuses.
For this latest version they have chosen a taco food truck after a zombie apocalypse, a pretty funny mix of themes. The reels are set within the truck.
You will find 5 reels that are each 3 symbols high and 9 paylines.
Besides standard card symbols and all sorts of post apocalyptic symbols like weapons and body parts, you will also find a zombie chef as the highest paying symbol. Taco symbols are wild symbols and can appear on reels 2, 3 and/or 4 only. The game doesn’t have any scatter or bonus symbols.
Taco Fury XXXtreme comes with a maximum payout of 533 times your bet and is a low volatile slot game.
Taco Fury XXXtreme Features
Wild Explosion and respin
Above reels 2, 3 and 4 there is a special row where three types of random symbols can land. When a wild taco lands on the same reel, you will trigger a wild explosion. Depending on the color of the special symbol, you will receive the following wilds:
- Orange – The taco wild’s multiplier will increase by x1 and it will also add a wild on each adjacent reel
- Red – The taco wild’s multiplier will increase by x1 and the rest of the reel will become wild
- Purple – The taco wild’s multiplier will increase by x1 and it will add 2 or 3 extra random wilds on the reels
After all wild explosions have been added to the reels and you are paid, all wilds are held and you get a free respin.
XXXtreme Spins
You are able to activate two types of XXXtreme spins.
- For 20 times the bet per spin you are guaranteed at least 1 Wild Explosion
- For 60 times the best per spin you are guaranteed at least 2 Wild Explosions
Verdict
To be honest, I’m not sure what this series of XXXtreme slots is. It started with Starburst XXXtreme, which was an existing game and added XXXtreme spins. Which worked great and really made the game feel more extreme. Especially since that game has a maximum payout of 200.000 times bet.
After that one we got Milkshake XXXtreme. A new game with the same option to activate that special bet. Which was a pretty decent game and also a decent maximum payout of 7.100 times bet.
But now we have Taco Fury. I mean the theme is funny and the gameplay is also enjoyable. But now we have probably the lowest maximum win on any NetEnt slot. Only 533 time bet. And the game is low volatile, where the others were high. A bit of a strange way to go with an XXXtreme series of games. I don’t really get it.
But like I said, the game itself is pretty fun. So be sure to check out it at any NetEnt casino.
