Viva L'Italia review: introduction 

The Viva L’Italia online slot is one of the many titles you can enjoy here at Slots Temple. With five reels and 25 paylines on which to play, there is a chance you could walk away with the top prize of 9,000x your total bet. Use bonus features such as the wild symbols with multipliers to help boost your overall wins. Find out more about this slot in our review below. 

Overall theme 

Viva L’Italia is one of many travel themed slots you can play for free here at Slots Temple. We also have other 888 Slots demo slots available if you like the look of this developer’s games. 

Viva L’Italia sees you travelling to Italy. All the famous sights, such as the rivers and cathedrals, are displayed on the reels. In the background are the classic ruins you would find in Italy. 

What doesn’t work for this game is how plain everything else is. The playing card symbols, although well drawn, don’t bring anything new or exciting. There are other slots out there that have done this theme a lot better and brought more to the table in terms of clear graphics. 

Another travel-themed game you may want to check out is the Venice Magic slot. This is also set in Italy if this is a country you enjoy visiting in your slot games. 

Viva L'Italia RTP and variance

The RTP and variance of any slot are important for the player to understand, especially if playing for real money. It is these stats that will tell you what sort of risk and return you can expect from a slot game. 

The RTP of Viva L’Italia is a disappointing one, coming in well below the industry average at 91.8 per cent. What we really want to see is an RTP of around 96 per cent. The variance is medium, so the wins will be a mix of high and low amounts and should roll in at a steady pace. 

How to play Viva L’Italia

Anyone who is interested in playing this slot can find out how the controls work in the section below: 

1. Set your bets by clicking the plus and minus buttons on either side of the betting panel. 
2. Click the play button to spin the reels once at your chosen bet amount.
3. Next to this is the autospin button, which will set the reels spinning on their own. 
4. Click the information button in the bottom left-hand corner to display the game rules and paytable. 
5. Your last win and bankroll are displayed at the bottom of the screen. 
6. Remember that timeout and self-exclusion functions are available to promote responsible gambling. 

Bet sizes & paytable wins

There is a really good betting range in this slot that will cater to both budget players and high rollers. The minimum you can spend on these reels is 0.25 coins and the maximum bet per spin in Viva L’Italia is 250 coins. 

Symbols have to land in combinations of three to five, with some symbols paying out for two of a kind. Below we have detailed the top multiplier payouts available for each symbol: 

• Nine, ten, jack, queen, king = 100x 
• Ace = 125x 
• River, plaza = 250x 
• Leaning Tower = 400x 
• Scatter = 400x
• Cathedral, colosseum = 750x
• Wild = 9,000x 

Viva L’Italia bonus features 

Wild symbol 

The Viva L’Italia symbol acts as the game’s wild. It is the highest-paying symbol in the game, awarding you 9,000x your total bet for landing five anywhere on the reels. 

The wild symbol can substitute for all the other symbols in the game apart from the wine bottle scatter. It will also multiply any winning lines it is a part of by 3x. 

Free spins 

Landing two wine scatter symbols on the reels will give you a 2x multiplier prize. Landing three or more also comes with prizes and will also give you free spins. Below we have detailed the multipliers and free spins you can win during this round: 

Three scatter symbols = 5x multiplier + 15 free spins 
Four scatter symbols = 20x multiplier + 15 free spins 
Five scatter symbols = 400x multiplier + 15 free spins 

Conclusion 

Viva L’Italia would have potential if only it looked a little better. Players these days expect a lot from their slots and how they look. This one needs a lot of work to get it to a point where it is going to appeal to people. 

The bonus features are good but we wish there were more than 15 free spins available for landing scatter symbols. The wild symbol is good in that it comes with a 3x multiplier on any win. 

Another disappointment is the RTP, which is well below the industry average. The payouts for this game don’t seem promising to get good prizes from the slot.
