Free slot: Big Juan

How Big Juan works

Head to Mexico and its festivities for this creation from Wild Streak Gaming, in collaboration with Pragmatic Play. Released very recently, Big Juan is a very good slot machine with beautiful graphics and a very exciting musical atmosphere. When you play this slot, you will find a starting grid of 5 columns with 4 symbols. There are no features to get your teeth into during your pay spins, however you can unlock free games. These are very volatile and you can win a very nice jackpot on this slot. Connections work in the classic way, i.e. each time a connection takes place, the next round is launched.

The different symbols of Big Juan

Big Juan is a slot machine that has several different symbols. The first one is the wild symbol. This one, represented by a pepper, connects with all the other symbols in the slot, except the one that gives you the bonus feature. The following screen shows the value of the symbol for a starting bet of two euros.

In addition to this wild symbol, you have five premium symbols. These are called premium symbols because they appear less often than the other symbols, but they pay out more consistently when they are part of a connection. They are represented by: a man wearing a sombrero, a woman with a rose in her head, a dog with a hat, a bottle of hot sauce and a guitar. The following screen shows the values of each symbol for a starting bet of 2 euros.

Then there are five non-premium symbols. These are so called because they appear much more often than the premium symbols, but pay less consistently when they are part of a connection. They are represented by the highest values in a deck of cards: Ace, King, Queen, Jack and 10. The following screen shows the values of each symbol for a starting bet of 2 euros.

The different connections of Big Juan

Big Juan's starting grid is classic, yet it's a slot machine with many different paylines at your disposal: 40. For a connection to occur, the same symbol must appear at least once on your first three columns as well as on a connecting line. The further a symbol appears on your starting grid, the bigger your final payout will be. Here are the different connections of Big Juan.

It is important to know that the connections on the Big Juan slot machine work only from left to right and that only the biggest win per line will be taken into account when paying out.

How the Big Juan bonus works

As mentioned in the introduction of this slot, you will be able to unlock free spins in Big Juan Slot. To do this, you will need to get at least three times the "bonus" symbol represented by a pinata. The more symbols you get, the more free spins you get.

During your free games, your starting grid is different as it is 3x3 with an extra column on your right. On the left side are the prizes you can win. Whenever a "win" symbol appears, all symbols on the slot machine are winners. For example, all coins are accumulated and give you a final win. All "Mini/Minor/Major and Grand" symbols are collected. When you reach a certain number, you can win the prize. For example, to win the "Big" you must collect this symbol 5 times during your entire free spins.

You can also get extra free spins. To do this, you will need to have an "extra spin!" symbol appear. No matter which symbol appears in the rightmost column of your slot, you are entitled to an extra spin for every symbol that appears.

Finally, the last feature of this slot machine works with the "boost" symbol. When the boost symbol appears, all the coins on the screen are accumulated in the bag in the middle of the screen until your free spins are over. However, if the boost symbol appears and any Mini/Minor/Major or Grand symbols appear, they are not collected. Only the "win" feature allows you to collect money and symbols for the different jackpots.

Our opinion on Big Juan

As you have seen in this Big Juan review, this is an excellent slot machine on which you can bet between 0.40 euros and 200 euros per game spin. The sound atmosphere is very captivating, and even though there are no features in the basic game, they are not boring at all. During your free games, you can win very nice amounts of money since the maximum win of Big Juan is 2,600 times your starting bet. If you don't want to waste your time, you will be able to buy the bonus on Big Juan and it will cost you 100 times your starting bet. Finally, this is a slot with an excellent theoretical return, as Big Juan's RTP is 96.7%. However, if you decide to buy only the bonus feature without using paid spins, the RTP drops to 96.53%, which is above the market average.
