Big Juan Review
It's no surprise that everyone in this Mexican village knows of Big Juan as he's such a huge personality that it's hard to miss him. Big Juan is the life of the party but you better be careful not to get on his bad side.
Developed by Wild Streak Gaming and Pragmatic Play, Big Juan is a Mexican slot that plays on 5-reels with 40 paylines along with high volatility gameplay. All of the wonderful stereotypical items related to Mexican culture are embraced in this slot along with an incredible respin feature.
Design
You'll find yourself on a street in Mexico with Big Juan to the left of the reels. He's wearing a mariachi outfit fitted with dual pistols and a huge moustache. Throughout spins, he is active and will animate throughout spins which definitely gives the slot more life.
All the symbols on the reels are related to stereotypes in Mexican culture such as hot sauce, Chihuahuas and pinatas to give you a full feeling of being in Mexico.
The music is exactly what you'd expect with a soft guitar score paired with maracas to create something upbeat and exciting. There's even Mexican singing to enhance the music even more.
Gameplay
Big Juan is straightforward and easy to pick up with simplistic gameplay paired with a select amount of features. It plays on 5-reels with 40 paylines and only really contains 1 feature which is the respin.
In terms of menus, you can find all the relevant ones at the bottom of the screen with the trademark Pragmatic Play crown on the spin button to make it stand out.
Win Potential
Thankfully, this slot has a brilliant RTP of 96.70% which is over the average standard of 96%. It also features high volatility gameplay meaning that you can expect less frequent wins, but higher ones when they do show up.
Sadly, the maximum win for this slot is 2,600x your stake which is quite low - but the bets do go up to 200.00 so you can expect big wins from that.
Our Verdict
As big as this slot wants to be, it's limited by the maximum win which is quite disappointing. Of course, the respin feature is absolutely fantastic and definitely brings the slot to life, but the low win potential doesn't keep alive for long.
If you love Mexican slots and want something engaging, then Big Juan is one not to miss - just be aware of the low maximum win before you start.
