Wild Toro Tears Into the Online Casino

January 16, 2024

Bulls are some of the most powerful animals on earth, in terms of both strength and force. Historically, bullfights or ‘corrida de torros’ have been national spectacles in Spain, forming a part of the country’s unique cultural identity.

It’s no surprise then that the bull-themed slot game, Book of Toro is set smack dab in the middle of a traditional Spanish village. Read on to learn more about this action-packed title that has just hit online casino shelves.

Gameplay Storyline, Design, and Symbols

The plot of this bullfighting-themed online slot game goes like this: Toro and the Matador have just ventured to the land of Egypt in order to stop the wicked Captain Diaz, Matador Diaz Jr’s ancestor, from finding the special Book of Toro which contains the instructions needed to enter the treasure filled ABU Simbel temple. Set on 5 reels and 3 rows, everything revolves around this daring mission. Will the Toro and Matador come out successful, or will Captain Diaz ransack the riches and take the rewards for himself?

To go along with the theme and storyline, symbols on the reels include a collection of coins in bronze, gold, and silver, along with a Spanish-style hand fan, or ‘pericón’ that is traditionally a popular accessory among flamenco dancers. There’s also an orange, the most famous fruit associated with the Andalusian city of Sevilla. However, this one has a dagger stuck straight through the middle of it that has carved out the symbol of a bull- talk about authentic! The red rose is this slot’s highest paying symbol, paying up to x10 a player’s total stake when 3, 4 or 5 land in a winning combination.

It’s only appropriate that the wild toro is this slot’s wild, busting onto the reels to replace every standard symbol that is apart of a winning result. Other symbols include Diaz the Matador who is seen tipping his hat to players and grinning with his thin black mustache.

Bonus Features

Complimentary to all the above happenings are three different bonus features which each offer a different opportunity at more wins. First is the Toro Walking Wild feature which is triggered when the wild bull lands on reel 5. Directly after, a respin is awarded to players and the wild bull moves 1 reel to the left, continuing until the symbol drops off the reel. This is appropriately called a ‘shifting wild’.

Next up is the Toro Goes Wild bonus game which is activated when Diaz and a walking wild land on the reels on the same spin. When this occurs, the bull begins to stampede the matador, leaving behind a group of multiple wilds in its path.

Finally, the Matador Respin Challenge feature revolves around the main character Diaz who dishes out 3 respins to players when he arrives on reels 2, 3, and 4 on the same spin. When a new Matador symbol lands, an additional respin is added. This feature ends when there are no more respins available or when the toro conquers the Matadors.

So, what are you waiting for? Dive into these bull-filled reels today, if you dare!
