Little Italy Review - Introduction

This travel themed slot takes a look at the familial side of Italy, with plenty of home comforts displayed across the paytable. An Italian mother awards the biggest wins, followed by olive oil, oranges, pasta and some crepes. Even the letter symbols are styled as tablecloths, but they aren’t quite as valuable.

Although Little Italy lacks a fully fledged bonus game, there are free spins to be won. Free spins on this slot function differently from other games, and you can actually win an unlimited amount (more on this later). 

Elsewhere on the reels, a special cactus multiplier doubles winnings and a crate of lemons is the wild. There are 15 paylines, which is about average, and these can be adjusted to suit your tastes. Winnings pay from the left, and autospin can be enabled at any time.

Theme, Graphics & Design

Little Italy takes a somewhat different approach to the idea of travel themed slots. Rather than focusing on sprawling coastlines or grandiose architecture, it conveys players into the heart of the Italian home: the kitchen! This is a cozy and feel-good slot, but it's not one to play if you’re feeling hungry. Some of the food looks good enough to eat, and it’s certainly capable of getting your stomach rumbling.

The oranges, pasta and crepes look delicious, but the theme excels in other areas, too. We loved the homely, slightly rustic vibe of the background, which shows a kitchen wall complete with garlic. The reels hang as though supported by timber, and there are minute details everywhere. Even the lowest-value symbols get little touches, like the olives hanging from the J or the chilis next to A.

Sounds aren’t enabled as default, but you can turn them on. The soundtrack is slightly disappointing. Although the music is charming, high-quality and distinctly Italian, it plays on an extremely short loop. This means it quickly becomes repetitive, which is a real shame.

Little Italy RTP and Variance

We can’t tell you any volatility figure for Little Italy, but its RTP is 95.83%. That’s a little below average, but it isn’t a major concern. The maximum prize on this slot stands at x4000, but players would do well to remember the rarity of top wins.

How to play Little Italy

Bet & Win Sizes

Bets start uncommonly high on Little Italy at 15. They can be increased up to 150. The maximum single line win on the slot is x4000, but you’ll need to get incredibly lucky and land five of the mother symbols.

Here’s what other delights await in the kitchen.

Five mothers = x 4000

Five olive oils = x 2000

Five oranges = x 750

Five pasta dishes = x 500

Five crepes = x 200

Five As = x 200

Five Ks = x 150

Five Qs = x 100

Five Js = x 100

Paylines default to a distinctly average 15, but you can adjust them using the arrows on the “lines” box.

Little Italy bonus features

Little Italy doesn’t go huge with its bonuses and there’s no dedicated bonus game, but it does include a few features to whet your appetite.

Free spins

Little Italy features one of the more unusual free spins bonuses that we’ve played through. You’ll need three wine glass symbols to trigger the feature, at which point you’ll earn an unlimited number of spins and access to 20 wilds. One or more of those wilds can be added to the reels on each spin, decreasing the counter by the same number. When the counter hits zero, the round is over.

Multiplier symbol

Bonuses don’t get much simpler than this! The cactus symbol carries a x2 multiplier. Land one to see your prize total doubled.

Concluding thoughts

Little Italy is a cozy slot that feels as though it was developed with genuine warmth. We loved the rustic kitchen setting, and some of the symbols look good enough to eat. 

Free spins are a particular highlight, not least because they’re so unique. Starting with an unlimited number and then only losing spins when a wild is added ensures tension. We were never quite sure what we wanted - more wilds or to keep our spin total intact.

Little Italy’s soundtrack had the potential to be great, but unfortunately its loop is so short that it quickly becomes repetitive. The fact that this is the only flaw we could identify is a testament to how well Belatra has done with the rest of the design, and we recommend this game to food lovers and travel fans alike.
