Numero Uno (Microgaming) – Review & Demo Play

How to Play Numero Uno

Numero Uno is a 5x3 slot with 243 ways to win, so I start by choosing a stake between 0.20 and 120 and taking a spin. The buttons are neatly displayed on the right-hand side of the reels. I use the central spin button for manual play, the lightning bolt for quick spins, and the circular icon above it to open autoplay. The coin stack sets my stake, while the menu opens the paytable with symbol values, features, and rules.

Always play responsibly: set a betting budget before you start playing and stick to it. I keep an eye on the Quick Spin pace because the Rolling Reels can chain wins, and it’s easy to drift. If I want to step away, autoplay with loss and single-win limits keeps things tidy. When I need details mid-session, the info screens show symbol values, feature explanations, and how Scatters trigger Free Spins, so I can track what the grid is doing.

Numero Uno Symbols and Paytable

Numero Uno has a fun set of symbols with four furry wrestlers, a chicken referee, four royals, a Wild, and a Scatter. Each wrestling pooch has their own mask, background colour, and prize values. The lowest-paying symbol is the jack. Above that sit the queen, king, and ace. The dogs step up the ladder, and the Scatter is the most valuable symbol. Wilds substitute and can land stacked to help build lines across the 243 ways.

Five jacks pay 1.60x; queens 2x; kings 2.40x; aces 2.50x. The chicken referee pays 3x for five. Among the masked dogs, blue pays up to 3.50x, purple 4x, orange 5x, and the red dog tops the set at 10x for five. The Scatter pays anywhere, awarding 5x, 50x, or 250x your bet for 3, 4, or 5 symbols, respectively. Wild symbols don’t pay on their own here, but they carry the game by filling gaps.

How to Win in Numero Uno

To win in Numero Uno I land three, four, or five matching symbols across adjacent reels from left to right. With 243 ways active, positions matter less than reel coverage, which keeps the pace brisk. The Wild symbol substitutes for other symbols and can help complete combinations, and stacked appearances can swing a spin. Scatter symbols award prizes and also trigger Free Spins when three or more land, setting up the bonus round.

Bonus Features in Numero Uno

Numero Uno has three bonus features that shape most sessions: Rolling Reels, Wild Showdown, and Free Spins. These run alongside the 243 ways engine to create extra chances in different phases of play. I see Rolling Reels in both the base game and during Free Spins, Wild Showdown fires at random in the base game, and Free Spins arrive via Scatters, giving a clear route to extended play when triggered.

Rolling Reels remove winning symbols and drop new ones into the spaces. If the new symbols create another win, the Rolling Reels will trigger again. This can produce multiple prizes from one paid spin, and in my experience it keeps the grid lively, especially when stacked Wilds are in view. Note that Rolling Reels are not active during the Wild Showdown event. It’s active in the base game and during Free Spins, so momentum can build.

Wild Showdown can trigger at any moment in the base game and turns reel 2, 3, or 4 completely wild, awarding a guaranteed win. Free Spins arrive when 3, 4, or 5 Scatters land anywhere, awarding 15, 20, or 25 spins. During Free Spins, consecutive Rolling Reels ramp up a win multiplier to x2, x2, x4, x5, and x10. The multiplier resets between free spins. This is where bigger hits can line up when the tumble count climbs.

Max Win You Can Expect in Numero Uno

The maximum win you can expect to pick up in Numero Uno is around 2,100x your bet, which is on the low side for a highly volatile slot. The symbol values are very low for the most part, so chasing top-end outcomes through line hits alone feels ambitious. The features do the heavy lifting, and Rolling Reels, the random Wild Showdown, and the Free Spins multiplier combine to push wins higher when the grid cooperates.

How RTP Affects Payouts in Numero Uno

Numero Uno’s Return to Player sits at 95.22%, which is below the 96% industry average. In simple terms, it should theoretically pay out about £95.22 for every £100 wagered over the long run. The volatility is high, so payouts tend to land less often than in low or medium volatility slots, though they can be larger when they arrive. That said, the max win remains modest for the volatility profile.

Some operators may offer alternative configurations listed at 94.04% or 92.04% RTP. I always check the game info panel in real-money mode to see which version is live, then set expectations accordingly. With 243 ways to win and high variance at play, session swings can be sharp, so pacing your stake and using autoplay limits helps keep things in line with your budget. That small settings change makes a difference over time, especially if you play long sessions.

Our Verdict on Numero Uno

Numero Uno brings Mexican wrestling and dogs together for a fresh slot concept, backed by fun, colourful art and upbeat music. Rolling Reels shine in both base and bonus play, Wild Showdown offers guaranteed wins, and Free Spins with up to 25 spins and increasing multipliers can turn a run. The RTP is lower than average and the top prize is smaller than you might expect, but I still rate Numero Uno as a fine slot worth a spin.
