One thing that keeps us coming back to online slots are the thrills that exist in abundance. Yeah sure, the themes set the look and feel and the maximum bets determine the wallets of the player, but when an jackpots enters the frame, all bets are certainly not off, but instead on. Reel Keeper is one of the brand new jackpot slots games that is giving you access to a giant pot of gold that could be yours on any spin. This is thanks to the progressive network the title is linked to, while those that like to take in steady wins through strategic wagering will have all the tools to do so, all while taming the dragon that proves central to the theme. Let’s cross the wall and see what the dragon has made available to us.
Reel Keeper has something of a Game of Thrones feel to it, if only for the dragon style the casino software studio has gone for. Speaking of the studio, it happens to be Red Tiger, which is no stranger to producing graphically rich titles. Some of their slots have been so visually superior to other studios, with Phoenix Fire Power Reels and The Wild Hatter being two that come to mind. It’s a similar story here, with the illustrations being second-to-none, and the visuals are just as good on all three devices being mobile, desktop and tablet. While all of this is heat provoking, none of it tops the fact that Reel Keeper has a progressive jackpot. Win this pot, and you might be flying as high as the dragon from the reels.
The most you’ll be able to win off a single spin in the base game is 6,073x your bet, which means that the only significant amounts you can win don’t just come from the progressive, but also the regular reel elements themselves. You might look and wonder while the RTP ratio is so low at 93.78%, and this can quite simply be put down to the game hosting a progressive. Studios feel like the possible big reward constitutes a slightly lower win percentage.
There’s isn’t anything very innovative about the symbols, with them being split into three sections. The first section is the lower-paying icons. These are probably the least interesting out of them all. Although don’t underestimate the consistent wins these icons can bring you which are represented by playing cards 10, J, Q, K and A. The second section is the higher paying symbols which consist of symbols representing the theme of the game. There’s a dragon tooth, a goblet, a crown and the mighty dragon.
The 3rd section consists of only two symbols, although both of them carry considerable power. The first is the wild, and this icon stands in for all regular symbols to create a winning pay line. The other symbol is the free spins icon, which does exactly what it sounds like.
The base game bonus feature is a set of free spins. Hence the name of the scatter symbol. In order to trigger it, you’ll need to land three free spins symbols on the same spin, at which point you’ll receive your spins. While this might be the feature that lets you rake in the consistent wins, the main attraction to the online slot has to be the progressive jackpot. This can be triggered on any spin, although the higher you wager the more significant the likelihood that you’ll trigger the feature.
There are three different jackpots you could win – the Hourly Drop Jackpot, the Daily Drop Jackpot or, the one that could well and truly change your life forever, the Big Drop Jackpot.
The theme of the game always makes for an added incentive, but – think of judging a book by its cover – when a title hosts something as game-changing as a progressive jackpot then no one cares what the cover of the book looks like. So, mount the back of this dragon and ride it through the reels until that big win drops.
