Most people are familiar with Cinco de Mayo, but many aren’t entirely sure exactly what they’re celebrating. Too often confused with Mexico’s Independence Day (observed on September 16th), May 5th commemorates the surprising triumph of the Mexican Army over the French Empire, during the Battle of Puebla, on this exact day, in 1862. The holiday is, therefore, full of rich history, Mexican pride, delicious Mexican food and lots of fun activities. At Jackpot Capital, we know that the only thing better than a party, is a bonus party! Make that a fiesta! Keep reading to discover our special Cinco de Mayo Bonus Fest!
Celebrate Cinco de Mayo... with a Spin!
In the USA, Cinco de Mayo has become closely associated with the celebration of Mexican-American culture. Many people organize Cinco de Mayo parties with friends or family, in fact if you haven’t hosted on yourself, chances are you’ve probably been to one!
Decorations are a very important part of the festivities, with balloons, streamers, and flowers in the colors of the Mexican flag, red, white and green to be seen everywhere! Other Cinco de Mayo traditions include performances by Mariachi bands, Mexican dancing, feast of tacos and enchiladas, and smashing open those treat-filled piñatas.
Surely, we all remember these from our childhood birthday parties! A piñata is a figure - usually a star or an animal - made with paper maché and brightly colored tissue paper, which is filled with candy, fruit or other goodies (at JC, we stick to strictly bonus treats), and used during parties. Guests will take turns hitting the suspended piñata in an attempt to break it open and collect the prizes hidden inside. This was also the inspiration behind the Popiñata online slot, which is featured in our Cinco de Mayo Bonus Fest!
The slot has 10 paylines and 5-reels alone with some interesting and unique special bonus features. Firstly, you won’t find a Scatter here, which is uncommon in most slot games, but the Wild Donkey more than makes up for it. The donkey only shows up on reels 2, 3 and 4 but when it appears, it will explode, leaving confetti all over the Wild reel, while it expands to cover all of the positions. The donkey counts for all symbols and if more than one of them appear, a Wild Re-Spin will be triggered, which basically enables you to spin for free. A big cash reward can also be triggered by hitting the jackpot, which awards a 250x multiplier. The slot really brings a festive atmosphere to the reels through its animations, graphics, and music, making it especially easy to sit back, relax and enjoy the gameplay. Just wait, we’re about to make it even easier for you to savor...
