Pragmatic Play launches new Italian cuisine-themed slot Pizza! Pizza? Pizza!

iGaming content provider Pragmatic Play announced Monday the release of a new slot based on Italian cuisine, called Pizza! Pizza? Pizza!

"Home to a variety of toppings, this title, inspired by the world's favorite feel-good food, caters to all tastes with salami, basil leaves, olives, mushrooms and chilis making up the symbols," the company said of the game's background.

These are joined by a classic three-wheeled Piaggio Ape pizza delivery van as the game’s wild, which substitutes all other symbols in-game except the scatters.

The game board in Pizza! Pizza? Pizza! is loaded onto "a large slice of gaming goodness," resulting in a 2x3x4x5x6 grid that sees reels spin left to right and is accompanied by a jaunty traditional Italian soundtrack.

Landing three, four or five scatters awards 10, 15 or 20 free spins and it is here that money symbols displayed as peppers can be collected via the Pizza Boy and Super Pizza Boy features. These can also be added to the board during the last spin to "further increase the delicious wins on offer," the company noted.

Pizza! Pizza? Pizza! is also home to an ante bet, which increases the player’s chances of activating the bonus round.

Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, said “Pizza! Pizza? Pizza!  takes the world’s love for this classic dish and packs it with features and win potential. The game uses cutting-edge animation and design to seamlessly propel this popular theme into a world-class slot, delivering a feel-good experience powered by innovative mechanics.”

This week, the company also launched a Mexican-themed, 'spicy' new slot, Hot Pepper. The business is also preparing for the holiday season with its new slot Bigger Bass Blizzard Christmas Catch, which is set in a winter wonderland. The title marks a new installment in the Big Bass Bonanza series.
