Lightning Box Studio’s Jackaroo Jack slot had This Wombat jumping for joy- this game was a busman’s holiday for me- as it was back to the Bush. Welcome to Australia my friends. It’s a bit warmer here than it is on the Tiki Vikings slot, that’s for sure!
So, what the heck is a jackaroo I hear you ask? Well, if you didn’t know already, a jackaroo is a bloke who works with cattle and sheep on Australia’s farms and he’s the central character in this hot and sweaty game. A lot of my mates are jackaroos! Top blokes in the main, although I once met one that chased me around New South Wales for a couple of weeks.
Look and Feel
Take a deep breathe and smell the heat and dust from the yellow hills of the outback where our main man, Jackaroo Jack, is bossing the reels which have twisted rope marking out the farm where the game is set on. Struth, it’s drier than the desert in the Richie in Vegas slot out here.
You can practically feel the warmth and light oozing out of this feel good slot. Prick those ears up and listen out for a touch of country style music that should get you into the mood for some thumb tingling play.
Jackeroo Jack Slot Game Play
The Jackaroo Jack slot is a 3 rows, 5 reels and a crazy big 1024 Ways to Win affair set in the Outback. If you are used to games like the Faerie Nights slot with its 25 pay-lines, this might blow your mind, so watch out!
3 or more matching icons on the reels left to right makes you a win.
Fair dinkum, this trip into the wide open spaces looks as good as a triple stack of pancakes on your mobile devices and your desktop.
Top scoring icons include an angry bull, a white stallion, a windmill and a Kookaburra bird.
The King through 9 of the card deck take the lower value spots in this game.
A cow’s skull in a trophy frame is the Wild and arrives on reels 2 and 4 and this substitutes for all other icons. The Bonus icon is Jack who is tipping his hat at you. What a nice bloke he is!
The Bonuses
Six scatter Jacks on the reels trigger the bonus feature. Now you lucky blighters can pick between 5 different Free Spins options. Choose between:
– 6 Free Spins with a x5 and x8 Multiplier active.
– Or 10 games are up for grabs with a x4 and a x6 Multiplier
– Bag 12 Spins with a nice little x3 and x4 Multiplier.
– The 15 Free Spins options will net you you a x2 and a x4 Multiplier.
– Or go all out for 20 Free Spins with x2 Wilds.
If you land six further Scatters on the reels you will get gaming with a whole fresh set of six Free Spins.
2nd Chance Re-spin
If your spin hasn’t quite worked out, don’t fret as you can still get another bite of the spin and win cherry. All you need to do is land one or more Wild on the reels and you’ll get another Free Spin with that feature triggering Wild or Wilds frozen in place. Thank you Jack, don’t mind if I do.
Summary
Jackaroo Jack slot is more than just a nostalgic postcard from Oz. This medium variance game rewards its players with five free spin features which range from the good to the even better. I love this game’s 40x your wager win potential, even when there’s not a burrow or tree in sight!
