Jester Spins

Online slot machines trace their origins back to the three reel fruit machines – many of which can still be found in arcades, pubs and nightclubs up and down the land. While modern games are usually software powered, they often still adhere to the structure of reels and reel positions, which most players are instantly familiar with when they log on for a spin or two. The Jester symbol can be found in classics like reel king and Joker’s Jewels and now a whole slot is based on it.

Jester Spins slot from Red Tiger Gaming (who have also created Treasure Mine and Crazy Genie) owes more to this tradition than most. It’s a three reel fruit machine slot, in a nod to these more basic original games. But it presents the three reel action with a twist, making it something a bit different to the norm. Firstly, there’s a progressive jackpot on the line, which you don’t usually find with simple three reel fruit games like this. But there’s also a fresh approach to the graphics and design elements, coupled with a free spins bonus feature, that hauls this game into the modern age.

Jester Spins slot is set out across three reels, and deploys a very clean, simple layout for the gameplay area. The reels are floating, with only a light vertical line separating them, giving the impression of a modern, spacious spinning game. Across these three reels of three symbols, there are 5 possible paylines – line up matching symbols across any of these five directional lines and you’ll be in for a combination win, depending on the value of the symbol on the paytable.

Despite the simplicity, this is a big money slot, with some high per spin bet limits in place. While it’s possible to spin from just £0.20, you can choose to bet up to as much as £500.00 per spin. The base game jackpot offers up to 100x in return, and that’s before you consider your chance of landing a progressive jackpot win.

The luxurious look and feel to this slot is backed up by a generous RTP percentage. This notes the return to players as a percentage of total game revenue, and it stands at 96.02%. This is considered to be a high RTP, with clear blue sky above the 95% average threshold. As a result, players can expect a slimmer house edge than with many other slots titles, giving Jester Spins an extra kick when it comes to payout potential.

There aren’t too many additional features or bonuses, but there is a free spins round which can be lucrative if you get on a roll during the feature.

Feature Symbols

Jester Spins is a fairly compact game, which doesn’t leave a lot of room for additional bonus features and extras. However, there is one feature symbol to look out for – the Jester’s Hat symbol.

This is the scatter symbol, and any three of these in view will trigger the bonus game, a free spins round where you can win progressively increasing instant cash wins. There’s also a Jackpot symbol which triggers a chance at the Progressive jackpot.

Bonuses and Jackpots

The bonus round delivers an automatic 10 free spins, which begin immediately after your triggering spin. With each of these free spins, you will rack up combination wins, as well as wins for landing two or three more of the scatter symbols. With the additional scatter symbols, you win the instant cash prize, which increases after every combo of scatters spun. If the Jester Hat symbols appear on multiple spins, you’ll quickly find yourself playing for some high value instant wins through this simple, but effective, bonus feature.

Landing three of the Jackpot symbols on your reels is your chance to land either the Mini or the Mega progressive jackpots.
