Gustavo El Luchador

This is the first game PearFiction Studios made on the Leander platform. As all releases of the Montreal-based company, it stands out of the crowd thanks to its unique theme and state-of-the-art performance.

So, let’s plunge into the fascinating world of Lucha Libre!

Theme

Inspired by the Mexican professional wrestling, this way past amusing slot tells us a story of young Gustavo who dreams of becoming a champion. However, at 4 ft. tall and 80 pounds heavy, his chances to succeed don’t look really great.

… Or do they?

Well, he is definitely quite a character, so everything is possible and prevent him from obtaining the coveted golden belt is not an easy task! Hence, furious version of Gustavo is a wild symbol and can substitute for all other symbols except the Free Spins and Bonus icons. By the way, this mad dude appears on all reels but the middle one.

Gustavo’s Wild, Rumble In The Ring …

… and hell-roaring Las Mascaras Street Vendor!

At the same time, the “normal” side of Gustavo is the most high-paying regular symbol on the reels. Hulky El Titan, good-looking Tarantula, tricky Infierno, and cheerful Los Tigres make the rest of a high-value grid.

In their turn, all significant details of Mexican culture represent the low-value symbols. Hot chilly, fiery Metaxa, a cactus, fresh Café de olla, and a tasty tortilla are here to spice up the plot.

Betting Options and Functions

Medium-volatile Lucha Libre takes place across five reels, three rows, and twenty fixed pay lines. But only in the base game since during free spins a new four-reel grid comes into play and brings along incredible 81 ways to win!

Playing across all mobile devices, this video slot has a decent RTP of 96.01% and a pretty wide range of stakes that starts at $0.20 a spin and goes up to $100.

Features

Hitting three Free Spins symbols on the reels 1, 3, and 5 will result in the invitation for the Rumble In The Ring. During this special feature, a new grid of four reels has a new set of symbols. It contains high-value golden belts and silver champion trophies, low-value group identical to the one in the base game, and way past hilarious Wrestling move symbols. The reels are enhanced with 81 ways to win (game pays both ways but four-of-a-kind combinations are only paid once).

… and wrestle some awesome prizes from the groovy paytable…

The comic fight can bring the players some awesome prizes. The goal is to match wrestling symbols in order to damage the opponent. The free rounds last until Gustavo is defeated and total win multiplier is equal to the number of overpowered opponents.

What comes to the Bonus Game symbols:

they appear on all reels and matching three or more of these icons will trigger the Las Mascaras street vendor which allows punters to win one of eight possible prizes. Of course, it’s all about perky masks, a key is needed to unlock the higher bonuses (players have to find it first), then they can reveal the winnings by picking a mask or a doll.

Our Take

PearFiction Studios did a great job! This slot is smashtastic in so many ways that it’s difficult to describe with words. A superb, rick-tickling contest has plenty to play for!
