Xibalba

Trust Peter & Sons to take subject matter that's been used on numerous occasions and do something intriguingly new with it. As always, you can spot who made Xibalba in a heartbeat, and the whole game has been designed to P&S' typically high standard. A set of potentially thrilling features complements the one-off aesthetics; all backed up by significant winning possibilities. On the whole, it's a hard game to fault. Perhaps the only drawback would be if you don't like the graphical style, in which case, steer clear of anything with the name Peter & Sons on it because this is well and truly their jam. The Growing Wild feature proved to be one of the most exciting things about Xibalba. If you can catch it on a roll, you can get some really nice consecutive win chains as rows are added and new wilds appear on the wild stack, opening up additional ways in the process. Get a bunch of Growing Wilds at the same time as a decent win multiplier, and good things can happen. Also good is the way nearly everything in the bonus game is available in the base game, though if it happens in free spins, there is a chance of already having a sizable win multiplier in place when Growing Wilds hit. There is definite potential in Xibalba as a result. The game docs state the most won in a billion simulated game rounds was10,000x, yet oddly the game advertises wins of over20,000x. Like clockwork, Peter & Sons has knocked out another highly playable slot in their individual style. Xibalba has a distinct look unlike any other Mayan themed game, is filled with colourful characters, emphasising features that function fine on their own but can really shine when working in tandem.
