La Casa de Papel Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

You might not have heard of the TV Series La Casa de Papel in its original Spanish. But thanks to the wonder that is Netflix, you’ll almost certainly have come across the translated version, known in the UK as Money Heist. It’s based on a series of daring plans for forging banknotes and robbing banks, and it’s a huge hit with fans all around the world.

You don’t have to have watched the television series to play the game. But once you’ve seen the cut scenes above the reels and heard the hit theme tune play out, you might find yourself irresistibly drawn into the plot.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

The game is designed to look as though it’s playing out on a traditional slots cabinet. In the background are the stern and solemn faces of members of a jury. The reels themselves take up the central part of the gaming area, with the controls directly underneath them. Above the reels a screen shows cut scenes from the TV programme.

An outstanding aspect of La Casa de Papel is the soundtrack. If you’re not lucky enough to launch the Heist Feature, you can listen to the iconic ‘Bella Ciao’ music that is dotted throughout the TV series, by hitting the information button and calling up the game’s paytable.

La Casa de Papel RTP & Volatility

With an RTP of 96.38% La Casa de Papel offers better than average theoretical returns. It’s a very highly volatile game though, so it can tear through a modest bankroll pretty quickly. Of course, there are big wins to be had, but they don’t come along very often. If you can’t comfortably commit to at least 100 spins financially, then it’s probably not going to be the game for you.

But with that said, there’s nothing at all to stop you from playing it for free. And that gives you an excellent opportunity to play around with some wagering strategies, refining your bet to maximise potential winnings.

How to Play

The clean and uncluttered design of La Casa de Papel makes it really simple to find your way around the controls.

1 Studying the paytable is always a good start, before you even start to consider how much you might stake on each spin. You’ll find the game’s full details by pressing the ‘I’ button to the far left of the controls.

2 One button to the right brings you to your betting options. Scroll through the stake values, make your selection and hit ‘Confirm’ to progress to your game.

3 The central Spin button starts the reels, which will come to a halt automatically.

4 To the right of Spin is an Autoplay button which triggers continuous spins. Tap the button again to return to cancel the feature.

5 The button on the far right is the Turbo button for faster gameplay.

La Casa de Papei Heist Feature

You won’t find a wild symbol on the reels of this game, but the game certainly doesn’t lack a bonus feature. And it’s the exciting Heist Free Spins which hold the key to some extra cash prizes, but at no extra cost. You’ll need to assemble all three sections of the white mansion to activate the bonus round, and they have to appear across the central payline together. Now you’ll be awarded 3 Free Spins, and this time the banknotes come with cash prizes attached to each one. Here is where you can pick up multipliers worth up to 500x.

There’s a random Buying Time feature that sometimes comes into play following the final Heist Spin. You’ll be offered the choice of taking the win and returning to the base game. Or you can gamble your winnings on the outcome of a Vault Spin. The huge vault door spins, and you need the marker at the top to land in the green zone to win 3 more Heist Free Spins. Once those spins are completed you’ll be offered a further Vault Spin. You can repeat this feature up to 11 times from one triggering spin.

Overall Review

The only heist we’d come across until now is the The Heist online slot based on a TV quiz show. This heist has an altogether different vibe! But it’s surprisingly good fun to play, and the clever use of sounds, backing music and pieces of TV show footage really add to the immersive gameplay. Definitely one that every enthusiastic slots fans should try out, even if you get no further than demo mode.
