Pinata Pokie

Pinata Pokie
When we hear the word Pinata, we can’t help but think of lively children’s parties where some parent gets too close to the action and gets hit with the bat. Often in the most sensitive places, which is hilarious every time. In 2020 KA Gaming realized they were missing this amusing topic in their large portfolio and came up with the Mexican-themed Pinata pokie. At first glance, it’s all good - colourful and sharp graphics, Mariachi band backing the fast-paced action and Mega Symbols on offer. But a closer look at the technicalities of the pokie shows a less rose-coloured picture.

Let’s start with the basics - The Pinata pokie comes with a common field of 5x3, and a very ordinary set of 25 fixed paylines. So far, so good. The RTP of 95.55% is the first letdown we should mention. Not fatal by itself, but combined with Low-Medium Volatility, a regular hit rate of 34% and an extremely low paytable, will most likely not result in happy endings.

Even though all the symbols are paid and the Wilds often land Stacked, it’s no use when the 4 top symbols - Pinata Wild, Bat Scatter, Shakers and Balloons only pay 12x/10x/8x/6x the bet for 5OAK! We don’t even have to mention the card suits, which barely return the bet.

The previously mentioned Mega Symbols appear when stacks of Pinata Wilds land next to each other, but they don’t add any extra value. They just look deceivingly impressive. Since there are no Multipliers, other win boosters or Jackpots offered, the miserable maximum prospect of this pokie is provided by a full screen of Wilds - 300x the total bet.

By testing this mariachi machine in our internal lab (at the BNC - bestnetentcasino.info en-ca) with different bets at various casinos, we established the information provided in this article. KA Gaming continues its trend of not releasing the official technical stats. Thus, our conclusions rely solely on our experience and in-house test results and analyses.

All things considered, we cannot recommend the Pinata pokie to punters with real deposits, as there is little to no excitement provided in the game, and the potentiality to gain a substantial amount is nihil. It will be a loss of your time and money.

Feel free to launch the game anyway, safely (without the risk of getting hit) here on our page in the DEMO version or start depositing real money at one of our associated casinos.

  • Wilds - The Pinata itself serves as Wild and besides substituting for all other symbols (except Scatters), it is also the top symbol, providing 12x the bet for 5OAK.
  • Scatters & Free Spins - Landing 3/4/5 Bat Scatters (paid as 3x/5x/10x the bet, respectively) will trigger 15 Free Spins (always) which cannot be re-triggered. No Multipliers or any other features are offered here, but the Pinata Wilds do seem to be more prominently present.
