Hugo Carts

Hugo Carts Slot Gameplay and Mechanics

The slot follows a 5×4 reel structure with 1,024 betways, meaning winning combinations form when matching symbols land on adjacent reels from left to right. The wild symbol, represented by a bag of gold, substitutes for all regular symbols and also acts as the highest-paying symbol, awarding 10x the stake for five on a payline.

A unique re-spin system makes the gameplay dynamic, as landing any of the three character symbols—Hugolina, Hugo, or Scylla—triggers an automatic re-spin with their respective modifiers. This mechanic keeps players engaged, ensuring that even non-bonus spins have substantial winning potential. The game’s high volatility ensures big win potential, but payouts may not be frequent.

Hugo Carts Slot Base Gameplay

Hugo Carts Slot Symbols Explained

The game features a mix of high-paying and low-paying symbols, each tied to the mining theme. The wild symbol (bag of gold) not only substitutes for all regular symbols but also pays the highest reward. The character symbols (Hugo, Hugolina, and Scylla) only land on designated reels and trigger unique modifiers, adding more dynamic elements to the base game. The dynamite scatter symbol is key to unlocking the Bonus Round, while traditional mining-related symbols, such as helmets, pickaxes, and lanterns, make up the rest of the symbol set.

Hugo Carts Slot Free Spins Round

To trigger the Free Spins round, players need to land 3, 4, or 5 dynamite scatter symbols, which award 7, 9, or 11 free spins, respectively. A unique twist is that one of the three character modifiers is randomly selected at the start of the round, and their ability activates on every free spin. The bonus round can be retriggered by landing 3+ scatters, which adds an extra character modifier to the free spins. If players retrigger the feature twice, all three modifiers become active, dramatically boosting win potential. However, once all three characters are in play, the feature can no longer be retriggered.

Hugo Carts Slot Features

The character-based re-spins in Hugo Carts add variety to the base game, triggering unique modifiers whenever a character lands on its designated reel. These modifiers can appear individually or in combination, creating multiple ways to boost payouts.

Hugolina – Symbol Multipliers (Reel 2)

Hugolina increases potential wins by adding 2 to 5 multipliers randomly on the grid. These multipliers can reach up to 10x, significantly enhancing payouts when part of a winning combination. If multiple multipliers contribute to the same win, their values are multiplied together for an even bigger boost.

Hugo – Random Wilds (Reel 3)

Hugo improves winning potential by dropping 2 to 5 wild symbols onto the reels. These wilds substitute for regular symbols, increasing the chance of completing high-value combinations. Since wilds are also the top-paying symbol, their presence can lead to significant payouts.

Scylla – Mystery Symbols (Reel 4)

Scylla creates unpredictability by placing 5 to 9 mystery symbols on the grid. These symbols transform into a randomly selected matching symbol, increasing the likelihood of multiple wins across different betways.

• Don Croco’s Dynamite Scatters: At random moments in the base game, Don Croco may throw two dynamite scatters onto the reels, increasing the chances of triggering the Free Spins Round. Since the bonus requires three or more scatters, this feature can make a crucial difference in accessing the main bonus game.
• Free Spins Round with Progressive Modifiers: Landing three, four, or five scatters triggers 7, 9, or 11 free spins, respectively. One character is randomly selected at the start of the feature, applying their modifier to every spin. If more scatters appear, another character is added, making the bonus progressively more rewarding. Once all three modifiers are active, no further retriggers are possible, but every remaining spin will include wilds, multipliers, and mystery symbols simultaneously.
