Hobo's Hoard

Hobo's Hoard is a Rival powered video slot with as the name suggests a hobo theme. This is a big change from the more common Egyptian or Vegas style themes so it does give the game a good point of difference. Of course a strange theme is not everything you need for a great game.

Luckily the folks at Rival have added two bonus games to Hobo's Hoard which increases it's score. You have both a free spin bonus and a pick a box style second screen stage. Top jackpot on the base game is 7,500 coins and top pay on the free spins is 22,500 coins (37,500 & 112,500 at max bet).

The trash symbol is the one to look for as it substitutes for everything but the two scatter symbols. Get five trash symbols on any of the 15 lines and you are looking at the top jackpot of 7,500 coins. The trash symbols also make up the second highest line win of 2,500 coins which is a nice consolation prize for missing out on the games top jackpot by one symbol.

After the top two pays on Hobo's Hoard there are quite a few good mid level pays including 750 for five hobo symbols, 500 for five box symbols and three ways to hit for 250 coins with either three wilds, five bags or five carts. In total there are 37 unique winning combos and the game has a high hit rate.

The can scatters are the ticket to the free games. Get three, four or five anywhere in view and you win 10 free spins with wins tripled. The free spins can be re-triggered and the bonus stage can also be triggered during the free spins which is always a good feature.

The people scatter awards the pick a box style bonus. Get three or more anywhere on the reels and you move on to the bonus stage. Here you have five people standing on the street and you have to pick one to reveal your prize. In our review the bonuses paid between 150 and 3000 coins (Screenshot).

In the end, Hobo's Hoard offers a unique theme with two bonus stages. The 112,500 jackpot on the free spins is a big pay and even on the base game you can get some nice wins.
