Fred’s Food Truck Slot by Hacksaw Gaming 🎰 Free Demo and Review

Fred’s Food Truck Review

We haven’t seen too many junk food slots from Hacksaw until now, and Fred’s Food Truck is a fairly typical installment in the fast food genre. The food truck itself is painted with what looks like different symbols from previous Hacksaw games, and bulldog jaw Fred stands there in front of the truck with sausages in his pocket, looking kind of resigned and puzzled most of the time. He comes alive once in a while when something happens, but we’ve seen more charming characters in this genre.

The food symbols look kind of fake, and not really tasty at all to be honest, and the game revolves around a Green Chilli Multiplier upgrade system. There are 3 tiers to the chilli symbols, and they can add up to +100 to the Global Win Multiplier. The multiplier never resets for as long as the bonus round lasts and you can win up to 10,000x your stake. Fred’s Food Truck is a decent junk food installment, but Hacksaw hasn’t really poured their heart and soul into this game.

Fred’s Food Truck Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 10 and 20 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and they consist of drumsticks, hot dogs, tacos, pizza slices, and a hamburger. Wild symbols step in for pay symbols to help complete and/or improve wins, and wilds pay 40x your stake for 5 on a payline. Winning symbols are removed and replaced via the Cascading mechanic, and this repeats as long as you keep winning.

The Global Multiplier is increased via Green Chilli symbols, and these come in single, double, or triple versions. The single chilli symbol adds +1, +3, or +5 to the global win multiplier, while the double contributes +10, +15, or +20 to the multiplier. Finally, the triple green chilli symbol adds +25, +50, or +100 to the multiplier, and the chilli symbols are removed after adding their respective values. The multiplier boosts all wins, and it resets between base game spins.

The Small Menu Bonus Round triggers from 3 FS symbols in view, while the Big Menu Bonus Round requires 4 triggering FS symbols. You get 10 or 15 free spins from these features, respectively, and the multiplier only keeps building without resetting as new green chilli symbols upgrade it during the bonus round.

The Bonus Buy menu is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. If available, you can hit the yellow bonus buy button, and this gives you the following 3 options:

• BonusHunt FeatureSpins (high volatility and top-tier RTP of 96.38 %) - pay 3x your stake to be 5x more likely to trigger the bonus round.
• Small Menu (high volatility and top-tier RTP 96.19 %) - pay 100x your stake to get 10 free spins with a higher likelihood of landing green chilli multiplier symbols.
• Big Menu (medium volatility and top-tier RTP of 96.45 %) - pay 200x your stake to get 15 free spins with an increased chance of landing green multiplier chilli symbols.

Review Summary

It’s safe to say that Fred’s Food Truck is hardly Hacksaw at their very best, and this comes across as a somewhat hastily put together release that’s designed to appeal to a certain fast-food loving crowd. We have seen greasier fast food slots for sure, and the symbols come across as plastic representations of the food items, rather than the real deal. Fred himself looks like a typical junk food seller, and he doesn’t really make all that much of himself most of the time.

He comes to live when you win, and especially in the bonus round, and the multiplier upgrade system is typical for this developer. It can still lead to solid payouts in all stages of the game, however, and more likely so when the global win multiplier only keeps building in either of the bonus rounds. The 10,000x potential supposedly comes with a 1 in 10B spins hit rate, although this could be a typo from Hacksaw, but larger wins are possible from the multiplier system either way.
