Hobo's Hoard Slot Review 2024

Hobo's Hoard

The game Hobo's Hoard, with its 5 reels and the 15 paylines available on them, was designed by Rival Gaming. The game's features offer you wild symbols, scatters, multipliers and free spins, and there is also a prize of $37,500.

The slot's theme is a little weird, focusing on the life of homeless people and on things they might come in contact with. There is also a number of symbols that would be considered classic, pieces of fruit, things that we don't normally associate with hobos. The game's design is a little off as well, without too much thought or talent put into it. The game logo has the outline of the city in the background, but the reels take most of the screen real estate. Symbols present here include a wild trash can, a soda can for free spins, the people bonus symbol, shopping carts, hobo knapsacks, the cardboard box as his home, the hobo, cherries, lemons, apples, oranges and pineapples. Playing a game with this kind of theme is a bit sad and uncomfortable, and it doesn't help that the design of the symbols is one of the worst I've seen.

Despite the theme that was chosen for this slot, the maximum bet is not cheap at all, asking for up to $75 for a single spin. That maximum spin is composed of 5 coins per each payline (15 total), with the coin valued at $1. Top prizes of $37,500 can be won here, the equivalent of 7500 times what was wagered on a single payline.

You get a wild symbol, the trash can, which helps you make new combinations, by taking the place of other symbols from the game, but only if they're regular ones, with no other features attached.

The soda can is the scatter that will give you spins for free, when you get a minimum of three of them on the five reels. You are given 10 spins if you meet those requirements, plus a multiplier of 3x which is available for all prizes won during those spins.

The next major feature, the bonus game, is started with 3+ bonus symbols, and it takes the player to a screen where he has to pick a person, trying to guess who gives the beggar the most money. Obviously, the better your choice, the bigger the prize you're getting out of that round.

The game feels a bit uncomfortable because of its theme, and the graphics don't help too much with the appeal either. If you're not bothered by any of that, give it a shot, it has the usual number of features and a decently sized jackpot.
