The Mariachi 5 Review

The graphics are great in this Realtime Gaming free slot, and the bopping soundtrack adds to the street party feel. There is a buzz about the action that is enhanced by the fast-paced reels, although some players may not like how fast this can make your playing balance disappear.

The chance to choose how much of a risk you want to take in the bonus round is a nice addition and offers variation between playing sessions, and the top prize of 6,000x is certainly not to be sniffed at.
