Wish Upon a Jackpot

The wombat says: Well hello! We spy, with our little Wombat eye, a good-looking slot game.

We’re talking about the Wish Upon a Jackpot slot from Blueprint Gaming that is a twist on the usual fairy tale fare, making it a romping combo of several classic stories all rolled into one. It’s a Who’s Who of magic reels!

It combines all of your favourite characters including Puss in Boots, the long-nosed puppet Pinocchio and the Fairy Godmother.  She’s more like Father Christmas in this game with all the gifts she has on offer.

The Fairy Godmother Spins set off randomly during any game and award Pinocchio Wilds, Puss In Wilds or Gingerbread Man Wilds.

She looks like a big fat bee from the Beehive Bedlam Reactors slot in this game.

As well as the awesome theme, this is a game that has a stack of bonus features that will grab your attention and keep you entertained.

Dust off your glass slippers and head into the magic woods with us Wombat fans!

Look and Feel

This game looks great with high-quality 3D graphics and plenty of colour and detail to enjoy.

It’s a massive step up from older games like Tomb Raider and Irish Eyes (although we do love those classic games, especially the Emerald Isle one).

The Wish Upon a Jackpot slot looks more like an animated film than a slot game. The play is set in an enchanted woodland glade and here you will see all the evidence of a fairy tale mash-up.

Keep your eyes open for Snow White’s red apple and Cinderella’s pumpkin!

The fairy-tale reels are framed in a story-book frame, and the soundtrack is great fun, adding another level to the game’s detail with some dramatic and funny effects to keep the drama levels high.

This is a game where the small details all add up to create an immersive gaming experience. Nicely done, Blueprint Gaming!

Wish Upon a Jackpot Game Play

Wish Upon a Jackpot is a three-row, five-reel and twenty-pay-line slot. In that sense, it is pretty traditional compared to some other games we have played like Fruit Blast and Well of Wonders.

Your high-value icons on the reels are straight from Fairytaleland and are made up of the game’s sunset logo, a golden harp, Cinderella’s glass slipper on a cushion, and a fairy-tale castle.

The lower value icons are the A, K, Q, J and 10 of the standard playing card deck. The game’s Wild is a happy-looking frog on a lily pad wearing a golden crown, while the Scatter icon is a thick volume of stories.

Fairy Tale Bonus

Now here’s where things get magical Wombat Fans. If you can manage to land three or more of the Scatter symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5 you will trigger the Bonus feature, and you will get the extra treat of choosing one icon (with a golden sparkling wand) to discover which fairy tale feature you will trigger.

The pages of the book will turn to open on the page of your fairy tale feature. The possibilities are:

Jack and the Beanstalk
Jack will take you to a screen where you must pick your magic beans to try to get the beanstalk to grow. The higher the beanstalk, the more chance you have of reaching the rich pickings of cash prizes that are hoarded by the golden goose above the clouds.

The Rumpelstiltskin Deal Maker
We’re a big fan of this fairy tale fella. Pick this feature and the cheeky chap will make you an offer of a multiplier. You can take it or leave it up to five times (to wait to see if you can get a better offer) but then you have to accept what he’s offering you. We like the extra element of risk in this one.

Three Little Pigs Free Spins
It’s a free spins porker in this feature Wombat Fans. Once your spins have started, the pigs land on the reels making their sparkly magic and creating Sticky Wilds that hang about to increase your chances of winning.

There’s even a pig wizard who can appear at the end of the spins to re-trigger this bonus round – a dream come true!

There is a cloud on the horizon from behind which the big bad wolf will pop up when you least expect it and blow those friendly pigs away!

Rapunzel Free Spins
The long-haired lovely is in charge of this bonus. You will see Rapunzel in her tower with her suitor Prince Charming trying to climb her hair during the spins. Sadly he can only climb her golden locks of hair and their multipliers when the Prince Charming icon shows up on reel five.

The Fairy Godmother of Wilds!
The Fairy Godmother will show up randomly during the base game and will bring you gifts in the shape of three sparkling orbs. She then gives you one of the following:

– Pinocchio Wilds – she adds extra Wilds to the reels and makes extra magical moolah for you.
– Puss in Wilds – she turns neighbouring icons into Wilds.
– Wild Reels –  At the wave of a magic wand, she turns a whole reel Wild, increasing your odds of making winning pay-line combos.

But that’s not all! She can also grant you one of the other four larger fairy tale features, or even make a special award of Fairy Wins Spins which guarantees an instant cash prize. It’s bonuses galore! We’d expect nothing less from Blueprint.

Conclusion

The Wish Upon a Jackpot slot looks great and is filled with fairy tale touches that immerse you in another world. It has so many cool tiny details!

As for the bonuses – there are so many features in the Wish Upon a Jackpot slot that this Wombat’s head was spinning trying to take them all in.

Fans of epic games will love this game. Fantastic!
