Relax Gaming sees its wildest bandito return in Wild Chapo 2 Dream Drop
Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, is readying itself for the biggest breakout of the year as everyone’s favourite outlaw returns in Wild Chapo 2 Dream Drop.
The much-loved Mexican anti-hero, Chapo, is looking to get out of jail and help land players Mega Jackpots in this 6×3 epic. Big wins come through Wild Re-Spins, Free Spins and of course, the legendary Dream Drop Jackpot.
Wild symbols appear on reels two and five and trigger a re-spin. Re-spins continue as long as wins involving a wild symbol occur; all wilds are held in place during each re-spin.
Each wild displays a number between one and five, representing the number of wins it must be part of before being collected. This number decreases by one with every win. Once a Wild reaches zero, it is collected under the reel.
After the re-spins, a final spin occurs where the collected wilds expand to fill the reel, creating wild reels. Wins with multiple wilds have their multiplier values combined for greater rewards.
Free Spins are triggered by collecting three or more bonus symbols during a game round. Wild symbols remain on the reels throughout the feature, either until they are collected or until the final spin. At the end of the feature, a final spin is awarded, where collected wilds expand to fill the reel above them. Every bonus symbol that lands during Free Spins awards one extra spin.
Landing a large DD symbol automatically triggers the Dream Drop Bonus game, which is presented as two jackpot wheels. A jackpot is won when both wheels stop and pair the same jackpot, or when one of the wheels stops on a wild. When both jackpot wheels stop on Wild, a re-spin of the wheels is triggered.
Shelley Hannah, CPO at Relax Gaming, said: “Wild Chapo is a long-standing favourite amongst our players, and Wild Chapo 2 seemed like the perfect game to receive a Dream Drop makeover. We know this slot is popular, but we truly believe adding our much-loved jackpot will elevate it to new heights.”
