About Taco Brothers
The Taco Brothers is one of the stranger video slots to be released by ELK Studios. This slot is all about how an evil captain stole everybody’s tacos in Mexico, and how a group of heroes went and retrieved them, defeated the captain and restored tacos to the country. It’s all very stereotypical, but it is no meant to offend. Instead Taco Brothers is supposed to be a light-hearted theme for a slot. The game contains a total of 5 reels and 243 ways to win. Naturally then, you won’t be able to wager on each individual payline. You can, however, choose to wager anything from a low of 0.10 per spin, up to 50.00 per spin. This makes it quite cheap for a 243-payline slot. Players can win as much as 150,000 coins in this non-progressive jackpot video slot.
Special Features
The standard wild symbol is a bell symbol, which, curiously enough, is shaped and designed almost identically to the Taco Bell icon. Leaving that aside, the wild icon can substitute and replace all others in the slot, with the exception of the safe, and the Taco Brothers icons.
The Taco Brothers icon acts as a secondary wild. When two of these symbols appear anywhere on the reels, they will trigger a re-spin, offering players a second chance to land 3 of the game’s safe icons.
Taco Brothers’ safe icon is therefore the game’s scatter. It can offer you scattered wins worth 1x, 2x, or 3x your total bet, when you land 1, 2, or 3 anywhere on the reels. Land 3 of these icons and you will trigger a free spins bonus round.
Bonus Feature
Taco Brothers’ free spins bonus game is known as The Wild Escape. During the bonus, running wilds come into play. The Taco Brothers will drop one at a time on the fifth reel, and when they do they will release the running wilds, which dart across the reels, substituting for all icons save for the evil Captain Diaz, or the Senorita. Once the brothers have left the reels, the bonus round ends.
Captain Diaz will try and imprison the brothers during this free spins bonus. If he imprisons all three of the brothers, then the bonus round will come to an end. However, the Senorita has the ability to offer new free spins, and can release the brothers (running wilds) from prison if she gets the chance.
