Real Time Gaming chooses to honor a singular figure in the history of Rock ’n’ Roll music in Ritchie Valens La Bamba. This title offers 20 free spins at a time with win multipliers of 2x and 3x in bonus play.
Ritchie Valens died at the tender age of 17, in the same plane crash that claimed the life of Buddy Holly. Before passing, though, he recorded one of the most famous rock songs of all time, “La Bamba.”
Theme
This title is set in a 1950s-style malt shop, complete with leather-top stools and a sign announcing the price of burgers at 50 cents.
Gaming symbols include tickets, turntables, vintage radios, fan buttons, black and white TV sets, Fender electric guitars, signed photographs, autograph books, and 50s-style bowling shoes. A glamor shot of the man himself acts as wild, expanding to fill entire reels, while vinyl records labeled “La Bamba” act as scatter.
As is only appropriate, early rock ’n’ roll music accompanies gameplay. Players will have wait until the bonus round to hear the track after which this slot is named, however.
Betting Options and Functions
Somewhat ironically for a vintage slot, this title eschews traditional paylines, opting instead for a two-way pay structure that awards wins for three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels from either direction. With a six-by-three reel structure, this yields a total of 729 distinct ways to win.
Overall per-spin bit is set simply from 0.30–150.00 times the betting currency. Autoplay is available, and game speed can be set to one of three options. Some sources claim this slot has an RTP above 96%, but the designer’s do not offer this information up of their own accord.
Features
Free spins are triggered when the vinyl record scatter symbol appears on 4, 5, or 6 consecutive reels. 20 freebies are awarded in every case, as are win multipliers of 2x and 3x.
When 5 scatters trigger the feature, in addition to the above, extra wilds are added to the middle four reels, further increasing the chance for big wins. When 6 scatters trigger the bonus, however, extra wilds are added to all reels: this is where the best opportunities for big wins can be found.
No matter which variety of free spin feature is awarded, 20 additional free spins can be added to the feature should 4 or more scatters appear on the reels during bonus play.
Our Take
A gaming behemoth like RTG does more than release big, flashy, innovative titles: they also offer simple, reliable gaming. In other words, both quality and quantity are on offer. Ritchie Valens La Bamba, for its many charms, certainly falls more into the latter category than the former. With that said, it’s wonderful to see this brilliant and tragic figure honored after his death: the warld should know his name.
T-Rex, an excellent, dinosaur-themed slot from this designer, shows this company’s broad range.

For me the only one good thing in this slot is music of Ritchie Valens. But game play is boring. Almost every spin is dead spin, to get a bonus game is mission impossible. Few times I hit them after few hundred spins and won one time one dollar and next time maybe almost 3 dollars. These new RTG slots are so terrible.

OMG This game is my all time favorite if it's hitting 1500.00 I won on 1 spin during the spins. It pays better at the lowest bet of .30 cents. I won that at Grande Vegas and Casino Extreme

I was sent some trial spins on Ritchie Valens: La Bamba from Uptown Aces Casino which I am a member at.

I think maybe Richie Valens La Bamba should have stayed in the past where it belongs. RTG really should have screened this game properly with an audience younger than 80. This one's lack of popularity in my opinion is due to the fact that it's mostly a younger crowd playing on these games these days and this one just lands...

This one's lack of popularity in my opinion is due to the fact that it's mostly a younger crowd playing on these games these days and this one just lands on deaf ears. Move on to the next slot, this ones a bust, next slot please.

Ritchie Valens is like a variation of Big Bopper. It is good with wild substituting scatters too. But, the feature is not easy to get, cause it should be left to right or right to left, and the wild is expanding, so, it actually lands on the reels less. But, considering the always win in 3 x 6 frame, the wins can be really...

I thought this was a really strange way to get "come on come on come on pretty darling" stuck in my head for 12 days, and nothing else. Free spins 15 and 20 twice each with 1dollar bet nets less than 2 bucks all times. And it turns out, just quite volitile,
