Via Del Corso Review

As any “cultivated” player may know, The Via Del Corso is the main street that runs through the historical center of Rome. You get small piazzas and narrow alleys in all directions, and this area comes with all sorts of restaurants, shopping, historical buildings, and other attractions. You get a cartoonish taste of it in the Via Del Corso slot from Pragmatic Play, and you can catch a glimpse of the Colosseum on the left-hand side.

The 5x3 grid is sat inside a canopy, which is a typical Italian style roadside stall. The soundtrack is classic Italiano as well, and the Vespa Wild steals the show in this release. It’s admittedly close to being a reskin of Pragmatic’s Hot Fiesta, but non-UK players can get access to a bonus buy feature this time. Multiplier wilds roam around in the bonus round, at least if you land any, and this can land you payouts up to a hard-capped 5,000x your stake.

Via Del Corso Slot Features

You can turn on the Ante Bet between any base game spin if you so desire, and it will cost you 40 % more per spin. The benefit is that your bonus round chances are doubled.

The premium symbols pay between 4 and 30 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and Wild symbols play a central role in this game as we shall see below.

The Vespa Wild can appear on all 5 reels, and it steps in for pay symbols to help complete and/or improve wins. The wild also pays up to 40x your stake should 5 wilds land on the same payline, and wilds come with random multiplier values of x2, x3, or x5. The multiplier will boost any line wins the wilds partake in, and the multiplier values are added together if more than one wilds is part of the same win.

The Bonus Round triggers when you land 3 scatters on reels 1, 3, and 5 at the same time, and you will then see 9 firework crates go off one by one. Each crate adds +1 to +3 to your free spins tally, which means that you get between 9 and 27 free spins each time.

All wild symbols that land in the bonus round remain in play for the duration of the feature, and they roam around to random positions per free spin. The wilds come with multipliers up to x5 in the bonus round as well, and there is no way to retrigger the bonus round, nor win extra spins.

Non-UK players, and anyone living in an eligible jurisdiction, may purchase the bonus round for 100x the stake via the Bonus Buy button.

Review Summary

One way to describe Via Del Corso is that it’s not quite as charming as it tries to be. It comes with a classic Italian tune that livens things up a bit though, and it’s a tad less superficial than Hot Fiesta, which is the obvious source of inspiration. In fact, it’s pretty much a clone, bar the bonus buy option, and if we had to choose we would go with Via Del Corso. Pragmatic has squeezed as much Italiano into this release as there are Mexicana cliches in the original, and it’s a bit over the top in both cases.

Don’t get us wrong, Via Del Corso will lift your mood and keep you entertained on a rainy day for sure, and multiplier wilds are a tried and tested feature in that regard. It comes with decent animations as well, and the roaming multiplier wilds can lead to payouts up to 5,000x your stake in the bonus round. Overall, Via Del Corso offers an okay break from everyday life, and a semi-holiday feeling that may make you wanna visit Italy on your next trip. Then again, it can also inject you with an overdose, so you may not even want to eat pizza for a month or two.

Pros

• High value multiplier wilds up to x5
• FS w/ persistent roaming multiplier wilds
• Win up to 5,000x your stake

Cons

• Reskin of Hot Fiesta (w/ bonus buy (not UK))
• Customizable RTP ranges
