Narcos Details 

The People of Narcos

Narcos is a 5-reel slot game that is inspired by the popular television series of the same name. It gives you 243 ways to win and is accessible on desktop, mobile and tablet. You can play this game with a minimum bet of €0.20 up to €400.

There is a total of ten paying symbols that you can land. Each of these symbols has various combinations that can give different payouts depending on your bet. The symbols are divided into three categories: regular paying, medium paying and high paying.

The regular paying symbols used are the high card Jack (J), Queen (Q), King (K) and Ace (A). The payouts you can get at maximum bet are as follows: 

There are two medium paying symbols that you can get. These are the Private Plane and the flamingo. These are what you can receive from the symbols at maximum bet:

The characters are used as high paying symbols. You will see familiar characters like Jose Rodriguez Gacha, Connie and Steve Murphy and Pablo Escobar. These are what you can receive at maximum bet:

Wild Symbol

The Wild symbol is represented by a police badge. The symbol can also appear on the Free spins feature. This can substitute all other symbols except for the Scatter and Locked Up symbols. 

You can also get payouts from this symbol if you land a certain number of it on your reels. These are what you can get at maximum bet:

• Getting 3 can give you up to 20 coins.
• Getting 4 can give you up to 80 coins.
• Getting 5 can give you up to 300 coins.
  

You can also get a Waking Wild symbol which comes as a Fired-Up Badge. Wilds that are part of a winning combination will stay on the reels and shift one place horizontally with each spin.

Drive-By Feature

This feature is activated randomly. The Drive-By feature transforms some of the high paying symbols into Wild Symbols. 

Locked Up Symbol & Feature

When three or more of this symbol appear on the same row and the same spin, the Locked Up feature is activated. The symbols on the same row are moved together and a random coin win value of 1-10x is assigned.

In the Locked Up feature, only the Locked Up symbols and Golden Locked Up symbols will appear on the reels. When a Locked Up symbol lands adjacent to a winning cluster, a random coin value of 1x to 10x your bet is awarded. A winning cluster is consists of three or more Locked Up or Golden Locked Up symbols. All the spins while inside the feature are free. 

Golden Locked Up Symbol

If a Golden Locked Up symbol is connected to a winning cluster, one of these features are unlocked:

• Multiplier — all values inside are multiplied by 2x or 3x.
• Upgrade Symbols — multiple values in increments of 1x the total bet can be assigned to symbols that are part of the cluster. The upgrade can happen 7x to 15x for each time the feature is activated.
• Big Starting Value — an additional value is added to the symbol as a starting value.
  

Free Spins Symbol and Feature

If three scatter symbols appear anywhere on reels 1, 3 and 5, there will be 10 free spins awarded. There is a chance that one or more high paying symbols turn into Wilds on every spin. If there are Walking Wilds that still remain on the reels after the free spins, one extra spin is awarded until there are none left.  

A Hint of Latin America

The game stayed loyal to the original television series it took inspiration from. The higher paying symbols’ designs are as close to the actual characters they are based off as possible. The design of the character complements the game without going off the original storyline completely.

The look of the game is an art style in on itself. It balances the use of 3d and hand drawing which makes the design look more amazing. The show may have revolved around crime, drugs and violence, but the game managed to put a twist to it that it will not appear as severe. 

The slow Latin instrumental in the background takes you deeper into the story which is inspired by 80s Latin America. It also stayed true to the theme due to the somewhat telenovela theme song-like quality to it.

Narcos: The Conclusion

Narcos is a slot game that brings the excitingly adventurous story of the tv show and its well-known characters to a less violent life. The gameplay is easy to understand but the game still has a lot to offer in terms of payouts and bonuses. If you are a fan of the tv show, then you will love this game. NetEnt has come out with one of their grandest games without skimping on the quality.

If you really love crime-related storylines, then never fear. NetEnt has a few more of those games in their arsenals like Crime Scene and Hotline.
