Halloween Jack

ALL ABOUT HALLOWEEN JACK SLOT

For many slots fans, Jack and the Beanstalk slot with its famous walking wilds and high potential bonus round is one of the high points of the NetEnt back catalogue. It’s a beautifully-designed game with excellent features and gameplay. So, it’s no wonder there is a stir in the slot community at the prospect of another title based on JB’s game engine.

If you’re a fan of the classic NetEnt slot then you’ll quickly notice the similarities when you start spinning on the Halloween Jack slot. The new game also comes with a superb look and feel – NetEnt has given a lot of attention to detail in putting this one together – with some excellent scary graphics and animations alongside a spooky soundtrack.

The base game of Halloween Jack has plenty of action in the form of walking wilds, re-spins, and multipliers, but it’s the bonus round with 15 free spins that will really get the blood pumping – make sure you look out for more walking wilds and wild stacks that can drive your win potential up to 3,000x per spin.

HALLOWEEN JACK GAME SET UP

The basic symbols in the slot game are the cards, 10 through to Ace. There are also five premium symbols – these are the horseshoes, ravens, bats, horse, and a really scary-looking female vampire who is worth 50x for five on a pay line.

The wild to look out for is the pumpkin, substituting for all others bar the treasure chest scatter and the lantern. The wild is key, appearing on reels 2 to 5 and triggering multipliers and the walking wild feature.

HALLOWEEN JACKSLOT FEATURES

WALKING WILDS AND RE-SPINS

In the base game of Halloween Jack, land a payline including a wild, and you will automatically set off the Walking Wild feature. Here, you will be granted a re-spin and the wild symbol will move one reel to the left. This continues until there are no more wild symbols left on the reels. Fans of Jack and the Beanstalk slot will be very familiar with this feature.

During a Walking Wild, ALL wins are subject to a 3x multiplier.

FREE SPINS BONUS ROUND OR FREE SPINS FEATURE

To set off the Free Spins round or free spins feature, you will need to land three or more scatters anywhere on the reels. This gets you 10 spins to start with. Landing another three scatters during the bonus round will get you an additional 5 Halloween Jack free spins, taking your total to 15 free spins.

The Walking Wild feature is also available during the bonus round – just land a wild anywhere on reels 2, 3 or 4 to trigger them.

There are also three extra wild features available in the bonus round, triggered by landing the lantern on reel 5. They work as follows:

Stacked Hell Hound Wild – Get 3 lanterns and the next wild to land will morph into a 2 high wild stack and start walking.

Stacked Jack ‘o Lantern Wild– Get 6 lanterns and the next wild to land will become a 3 high wild stack. Walking wilds are then triggered.

Expanding Death Reaper Wild – Get 9 lanterns and the next wild to land will turn into an expanding wild. This one takes over the entire reel (wild reel) and then moves one reel to the left with each spin.

THE SLOT BUZZ VERDICT

Halloween Jack is a killer slot, no question. It has all the hallmarks of NetEnt’s best works including one of their best theme/graphics/animations/soundtracks combos for quite some time. Of course, for fans of the original Jack and the Beanstalk slot, this might feel a bit like treading old ground, but the quality of the production here makes up for that in our opinion. The real big win potential is in the bonus round where stacks, Walking Wilds, and multipliers can all combine to bring about a 3,000x hit in one spin! Game on! As always, please play responsibly!
