Quick picture of the game
Onlyplay launched Day of Muerte on 3 October 2024, timed for the Day of the Dead season. A Catrina in a broad hat decorated with flowers sits beside the grid, and the reels are crowded with brass trumpets, maracas, a guitar, candles, a wide sombrero and cut-paper banners against a candlelit graveyard. To the left, three carved wooden plates show the Grand, Major and Mini prizes.
The engine is deliberately small: a 3x3 window, five fixed lines, a Wild and one bonus. Onlyplay states a return of 95.00%, rates the game medium on volatility and caps wins at 4,103x the bet.
Legal position in India
Since 1 May 2026 the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025 has prohibited offering, advertising and facilitating payments for online money games anywhere in India. The Supreme Court has petitions against the Act before it, and individual states keep their own gambling rules. Any real-money play is restricted to adults 18+, and the demo embedded here uses only virtual credits.
What decides a base game spin
Every spin plays all five lines, so the only choice you make is the total bet. Once the reels settle, each line is checked from the first reel. Three identical symbols pay; two do not. The Wild fills in for every regular symbol but not for the specials, and when a line could form two combinations the game pays only the richer one. Line amounts are then summed into the spin total.
The specials do their own job. When each of the three reels shows a special in the same spin and the Bonus Game opens. Reel 2 is the tricky part, because the accumulative special that collects money later can only appear there. Expect plenty of spins where the outer reels cooperate and the middle one does not.
Paytable converted to rupees
The demo server reports every pay as a multiple of the total bet, so a ₹10 spin and a ₹100 spin scale cleanly. Symbol names are not given in text form, which is why we list them by rank:
| Rank | Three on a line | At ₹10 | At ₹50 | At ₹250 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | 50x | ₹500 | ₹2,500 | ₹12,500 |
| 2nd | 30x | ₹300 | ₹1,500 | ₹7,500 |
| 3rd | 20x | ₹200 | ₹1,000 | ₹5,000 |
| 4th, 5th | 10x | ₹100 | ₹500 | ₹2,500 |
| 6th to 8th | 2x | ₹20 | ₹100 | ₹500 |
Five of the eight symbols pay 10x or more, which is a strong spread for a three-reel layout. The flip side is that every win needs a full line of three, so blank spins are common. Hitting two lines of a 10x symbol in one go returns 20x (₹1,000 at ₹50), and a screen covered by the top symbol wins all five lines for 250x, or ₹12,500 on a ₹50 spin.
How the respin bonus runs
The round starts with the three triggering specials already on the reels. After that, regular symbols disappear and just three types can drop in:
| Type | Where | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Value symbol | Any reel | Worth one, two, five, ten or fifteen times the bet, or a plate prize |
| Accumulative symbol | Middle reel only | Stays put and soaks up the values that land |
| Blank | Any reel | Fills a cell with no value and gives no extra time |
You get three automatic respins. A newly landed value or accumulative symbol pushes the counter back up to three; a blank does not. The plates are fixed: Mini at 25x, Major at 150x, Grand at 1,000x. When the counter hits zero, whatever the accumulative symbols hold goes straight into your total win. All amounts are tied to the bet of the spin that opened the round.
Watching the counter
Two places on screen tell you how the round is going. The respin counter shows how much time is left, and the middle reel shows how much money is stored. Blanks can look like progress because they fill cells, but they buy no extra respins. A single value symbol on what would have been the last respin gives you three more, which is why rounds often seem to end and then suddenly continue.
Example round at a ₹20 bet
The accumulative symbol is sitting on reel 2. Here is one possible run:
- Respin 1: a 15x value lands, ₹300. Counter back to three.
- Respin 2: nothing.
- Respin 3: a 2x value, ₹40. Counter back to three.
- Respins 4 and 5: a blank, then nothing.
- Respin 6: the Mini plate, 25x, ₹500. Counter back to three.
- Respins 7 to 9: nothing, so the round closes.
Stored total: 15 + 2 + 25 = 42x the bet, or ₹840. Had the Grand plate dropped instead of the Mini, the same run would have paid 15 + 2 + 1,000 = 1,017x, which is ₹20,340. Most bonuses end in the tens of x; the plates are what create the rare large results.
Plate prizes at everyday stakes
| Plate | Multiplier | ₹20 bet | ₹100 bet | ₹500 bet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mini | 25x | ₹500 | ₹2,500 | ₹12,500 |
| Major | 150x | ₹3,000 | ₹15,000 | ₹75,000 |
| Grand | 1,000x | ₹20,000 | ₹1,00,000 | ₹5,00,000 |
The plates update live when you change the bet, so the Grand's rupee value is always visible before you spin.
Same engine as Clown Coins
Onlyplay's own data shows that Day of Muerte matches Clown Coins on every number: 95.00% RTP, 4,103x maximum, the eight-symbol paytable, the respin values and the three jackpots. Even the rules document follows the same template. Clown Coins arrived first, in April 2024, with a funfair look. If you already play one, the other will feel familiar from the first spin, and the choice comes down to whether you prefer clowns or Catrinas.
What you control, and what you do not
The game offers neither a feature buy nor an ante option, and it has no free spins round either, so the stake is the only lever. At 95.00% RTP, the long-run cost is about ₹5 for every ₹100 wagered; over ₹1,00,000 of play, that is around ₹5,000 on average, with large swings either side in any real session. The rules let operators set a Maximum Win For One Bet cap in the limits section, which can sit below the provider's 4,103x, and Autoplay halts by itself when the bonus starts.
Budgeting for the bonus
Line wins here run from 2x to 50x per line, and the full-screen ceiling is 250x. Anything bigger has to come from the respins, so plan your session around how many spins you can afford while waiting for the specials. With ₹2,000 set aside, ₹10 spins give you 200 attempts and a Grand worth ₹10,000; ₹20 spins give you 100 attempts and a Grand worth ₹20,000. The return percentage is the same both ways, but the shorter run ends sooner if reel 2 stays quiet.
It also helps to think about stake size in terms of what a good, not exceptional, bonus pays. A round that collects four or five ordinary values plus a Mini might land somewhere around 50x to 70x, which is ₹1,000 to ₹1,400 on a ₹20 spin. If that kind of result would not feel worth the wait at your chosen stake, the stake is probably too small for your taste; if losing ₹2,000 before seeing one would sting, it is too large.
Treat 4,103x as the ceiling the provider lists, not something to chase. A typical session is a few ordinary bonus rounds and a run of 2x and 10x lines.
Try it first in the demo
The official demo loads on this page with play money. Our demo guide has general tips; for this game, keep a rough count of:
- Spins where reels 1 and 3 show a special but reel 2 does not.
- Value symbols gathered per bonus round.
- Plate amounts at the stake you plan to use.
- The RTP figure on the rules screen.
For a respin game where full screens double a multiplier, compare Caucasian Wolf. Whatever you pick, set a spend limit and a time limit first; each spin is independent of the one before it.

One special on each of the three reels in the same spin. The accumulative special only appears on reel 2. After that you get three respins, and only bonus symbols can land on the grid.
How much do the wooden plates pay in rupees?
The plates are fixed at 25x (Mini), 150x (Major) and 1,000x (Grand) of the triggering stake. At ₹20 that means ₹500, ₹3,000 and ₹20,000. Ordinary value symbols in the round carry 1x to 15x.
When is the bonus money credited?
Values collect on the accumulative symbol in the middle reel. Once no respins are left, the stored amount is added to your total win. Blanks hold no value and do not restore the counter.
Is Day of Muerte just Clown Coins with new art?
In terms of numbers, yes. Onlyplay's data shows the same RTP, maximum win, paytable, respin values and jackpots. Clown Coins came out first in April 2024 with a circus theme.
Is Day of Muerte available for real money in India?
India's Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025 has prohibited offering online money games since 1 May 2026, with Supreme Court challenges pending and state rules in addition. The demo on this page uses virtual credits.
