Diamond Fiesta - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

With plenty of fun features and an engaging Day of the Dead theme, Diamond Fiesta is an entertaining Mexican inspired slot from RTG.

Played over 5x3 reels expanding to 8x4 with 50 paylines, this slot features the great-looking graphics we expect from Realtime Gaming slots and a decent range of features, including free spins and streak respins.

The jackpot prizes are on the low side and the features can be hard to trigger, so we recommend some practice spins if you intend to play for real money. Otherwise, you can enjoy playing this mobile-optimised slot for kudos and “fun money” wins right here at Slots Temple.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

We’re a sucker for the vibrant colours and iconography of Dias de los Muertos, the Mexican Day of the Dead. 

Set against a dusky street scene, the hyper-stylised symbols include chilli peppers and tequila slammers, bone-handled maracas and a skeleton Mariachi player. 

Alongside the sugar skull, which is the scatter here, we find one of the strongest and most recognisable symbols of the Day of the Dead: La Catrina. The skull-faced senorita started life as a satirical drawing, designed to remind people that we’re all equal when we’re dead.

Overall, the graphics really serve the theme, and even the numerous royals look good on screen. The swinging soundtrack keeps everything moving, and all in all, we had a good time joining in with the Diamond Fiesta.

Diamond Fiesta RTP and Variance

Diamond Fiesta Bonus Features

Diamond Fiesta stands up well when it comes to bonus features, and there’s plenty of potential in this colourful and entertaining slot. 

Senor Skeleton Wilds

The wild symbol lands on reels 2 through 5 only. Senor Skeleton will substitute for all paying symbols except the scatter skull and the jackpot diamond.

Jackpot Diamond Feature

Land 6 or more diamond symbols to trigger three streak respins. Only diamond symbols are active, and landing a symbol in a spinning position locks in place for the remaining spins.

Any diamond landing in a corner of the grid resets the spins to three, except in the expanded 8x4 grid. 

At the end of the feature, each diamond reveals instant win prizes between 1x and 250x or one of four jackpots. Major and Grand jackpots only appear in the corners of the 8x4 grid.

Jackpot Diamond Expanding Reels

Land a diamond in all four corner positions during the Jackpot Diamond feature and watch the reels expand.

• Reels grow to 6x3 with a new column to the right
• If the corner positions are filled again, the grid expands to 6x4 with a new row on the bottom
• If the corner positions fill again, the grid grows to 8x4 with new columns to the left and right

Free Spins

Three or more scatter skulls trigger 6 free games. Extra skulls, diamonds and wilds are added to the reels, and 3 extra free games are added if you land three more skull scatters.

The Jackpot Diamond feature can trigger during free spins.

Diamond Fiesta Review

If you’re quite new to slots, you’ll have a good time playing Diamond Fiesta, especially if you stick to the demo version. After all, there’s plenty to enjoy with the free spins and streak respins features and the chance to land one of four low-value jackpots.

Playtech’s Fiesta De La Memoria free slot is another fun take on the theme.
