Exotic travel to exciting destinations is always a good theme for an online slot machine; landmarks and stories from that place contribute towards a narrative that, if done correctly, can bring that city or country alive.

That’s the case with Viva L’Italia, the recently released slot from Random Logic which transports us to Italy to experience the weather, the fantastic architecture and of course the wine.  This slot is a five reel and twenty five payline game with the reels set against a collage including the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Coliseum.

9, 10, J, Q, K and A make up the lower value symbols but there’s a range of Italian landmarks that represent the higher values including a Venetian canal, a fountain, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, a cathedral and  the Coliseum.  The background to each is a beautifully drawn sky.

The wild symbol is the Viva L’Italia logo while the scatter which activates the bonus feature is a collection of of Italian wine in traditional Chianti-style bottles.  If you’ve seen both the desktop version and the mobile version you’ll notice that the bottles are different!

Bonus Features

Viva L’Italia Wild

The wild in this slot is the highest paying symbol – landing all five on a winning payline will pay 9000x that line’s stake.

That’s not all though and if you land a winning combo which contains one or more wilds your prize will one multiplied by three so they can be pretty valuable.

Free Spins

Fifteen free spins are up for grabs if you can land three or more of the bottle scatter symbols anywhere on the reels – as we mentioned above it’s standard-looking bottles in the desktop version but traditional rounded bottles on mobile devices.

All wins created in the free spins round will be subject to a 3x multiplier and that includes wins which have already been tripled by including a wild symbol.  You can also win more free spins by landing more scatter symbols while playing this bonus game.

Verdict

A smooth movie and some appropriately Italian music introduce you to the game and it plays really nicely; the symbols animate when they’re part of a winning line and the free spins game offers some real scope to win big money.
