Lucky Dama Muerta Overview
Lucky Dama Muerta is a 5x3 video slot from BGaming, released in October 2021. Built around the Mexican Day of the Dead, the game runs on 10 paylines and pairs colourful calaveras, maracas and vihuelas with the title character herself. The art direction is the immediate draw, with bright carnival visuals lifting an otherwise traditional reel layout.
Symbols and Paytable
Paytable values are split between high-paying lucky charms and standard royals. Five-of-a-kind on the ladybug or tail returns x75, the coin pays x40, while horseshoe and the back-glow icon both award x25. Royals (A, K, Q, J, 10) deliver smaller wins from x10 to x12.5 for a five-symbol line.
Wilds carry the headline value here. Five wilds on a payline pay x900, four pay x250, and three pay x25. The scatter pays in its own right too, up to x50 for five, while also acting as the gateway to the free spins round.

Bonus Features
Free Spins anchor the feature set, triggered by scatters landing across the reels. Inside the round, wilds with multipliers do most of the heavy lifting, stacking up wins that the base game rarely produces. BGaming also includes a free spins multiplier and the chance for additional spins, which adds extension potential to longer sessions.
What stands out here is how much the bonus depends on wild placement rather than scatter retriggers alone. That makes outcomes streaky; you can ride a hot sequence to a sizeable payout or watch the round fade quickly. There is no bonus buy option, which keeps the game closer to a classic structure.
Bonus Buy Options
Triggered by scatter symbols, the free spins round delivers extra wins boosted by wild multipliers.
Wild symbols substitute for regular icons and carry multiplier values that increase payouts.
Multipliers attached to wins during the free spins round boost the overall payout potential.
RTP, Volatility and Max Win
RTP sits at 96.16%, which is in line with industry standard. BGaming classifies volatility as high, with a hit frequency of 3.9, though some review sources list it as medium or average. The max multiplier is 4,684x stake, capping the top win at 234,200 EUR on the maximum bet.
The bet range runs from 0.10 to 20 per spin, accommodating cautious players and mid-stakes bettors alike. The 4,684x ceiling is modest by current standards for high-volatility releases, so this is not the slot to chase if you are hunting five-figure multipliers.
Design and Theme
Visually, the slot leans into Day of the Dead iconography without slipping into cliche. Sugar skulls, mariachi instruments and the elegantly painted Lucky Dama Muerta give the reels personality, and the soundtrack carries a festive, mariachi-tinged backing. Compared to the studio's previous work, the art is among the more polished entries in BGaming's catalogue.
