An action & feature packed online slot machine from NetEnt called Spiñata Grande won the Game of the Year award at the eGaming Review Operator Awards – a prestigious annual event that was held this year at The Artillery Garden at the HAC in London. “To win the eGR Game of the Year award, voted for by operators, is fantastic reward for everyone involved in bringing Spiñata Grande to market,” said the Chief Product Officer of NetEnt, Simon Hammon.

He then went on to say, “NetEnt always strives to design and build games that excite players and fulfil the requirements of our customers.” We managed to obtain these comments directly from the official NetEnt website. eGaming Review Operator Awards is now in its 11th year and it was attended by more than 700 industry professionals from the world’s leading online gaming firms.

The Spiñata Grande online slot machine first arrived in casinos back in March 2015 and it can now be found at almost every NetEnt powered online casino. Speaking at the time of its release, Hammon said; “Spiñata Grande is a real treat that blends fun and unique graphics, excitement and win anticipation against the backdrop of a fiesta. This release is much anticipated as the feedback we’ve received is overwhelmingly positive and we’re confident its fun and happy artwork will offer a great entertainment experience”.

Some of the best UK NetEnt casinos include bgo Games (which is part of bgo.com), Mr Green Casino and Slots Magic. You can also find a growing number of NetEnt slots at Ladbrokes Games, bet365 Vegas, Betfair Arcade and at Paddy Power Games. Spiñata Grande has a Mexican/Party theme with 5 reels and 40 winning paylines and it can be launched over an instant flash casino platform, no download required.

Colossal Symbols can cover up to 9 symbol positions on the reels (measuring 3x3) and the Colossal Bonus Symbol can trigger the Mini Slot Feature when it shows up anywhere in view. In the Mini Slot Feature, you can win Bronze, Silver and Gold Coin Prizes, plus it’s also possible to trigger a Free Spins Bonus during this fun little feature. For each Free Spins Symbol that shows up on the Mini Slot Machine, a total of 5 Free Spins will be awarded.

During this Free Spins Bonus Round, a Colossal Wild Symbol (which looks like a Skull) will also be added to the reels to help generate some really big line wins. This Wild Symbol will substitute all of the symbols on the reels apart from the Colossal Bonus Symbols. You can play on this slot either in the real money mode or in the free play mode and its wide betting range caters to almost every kind of budget (e.g. low rollers, mid-rollers and high rollers alike).
