Tres Amigos on NTC33: A Three-Reel, One-Line Classic
Three reels, one line and a pepper that pays even on its own. A short guide to the symbols and the two-step bet in Tres Amigos.
Tres Amigos is about as simple as slots get: three reels and a single payline. You know from the first spin exactly where a win has to land.
Symbols in Tres Amigos
The artwork is pure Mexican-restaurant wallpaper. On the reels you will see:
- peppers
- guitars
- cocktails
- cacti
- tacos
- the three amigos themselves
The amigos are the characters the game is named after, and the paytable in the game shows how they rank against the rest.
The pepper works like a cherry
If you have played old fruit machines, the pepper will make sense straight away. It behaves like the cherry: one pepper on the payline pays, two pay more, three pay more again.
That makes it the symbol behind most of your small, regular wins. Nothing else on the reels pays for a single appearance.
Two steps to set the bet
Like other classic slots, there is very little to adjust. The bet is the only setting.
First, use the plus and minus signs in the lower left corner to set the base bet, anywhere from 0.01 to 5.00. Then the Bet One button chooses the bet level, which in effect doubles the base bet. At the top of the range that takes a spin to 10.
Doubling up doesn't improve your odds on a single line. It just raises the stake and the payout together, so only use it if your budget allows for the higher cost per spin.
