Joker Loot Review

Developer Jade Rabbit Studios complements its humble games portfolio with yet another creative release, Joker Loot. Not only it combines two different iconic themes but also comes with an innovative Cash Hop mechanic, providing a one-of-a-kind gaming experience and massive rewards up for grabs.

Design-wise, Joker Loot is a highly polished game, with sharp graphics and a fancy combination of mining and Joker themes. The actions take place deep beyond the surface, in a goldmine, but the reels here are made up of different kinds of precious jewelry, all sorts of gems, and, of course, bombs. That’s quite an interesting mix, and everything works perfectly together.

The symbol collection consists of 10 regulars, which are split into highs and lows. The lower section comprises five gems of different shapes and colors, and the higher lot includes in ascending order compasses, rings, necklaces, cups, and Faberge eggs. Five-of-a-kind wins are worth 0.75x the bet for the low symbols, and 1x - 5x the bet for the premiums. Plus, there are Wilds, represented by bombs, which stand in for any other symbols in winning combos.

Joker Loot plays out across a large 5-reel, 5-row layout.

Wins are achieved by landing at least 3 of the same symbols adjacently on the reels starting from the leftmost, but the number of win lines is dynamic and changes on each spin.

This depends on the blank symbols that land on the reels. At maximum capacity, when no blanks appear, the reels produce 3,125 lines. Basically, blanks do nothing but prevent winning combinations from being made, but in the features, they play quite a crucial role, which is covered below.

Players drop in by setting bets from £0.2 to £50 per spin, which should appeal to many. The volatility is high, and the RTP is slightly below the average level at 95.95%. When buying the features though, the payback is boosted a little to 96.2%.

Anyway, wins should occur fairly often in Joker Loot, as the 21.64% hit rate implies. The maximum you can get is 12,000x the stake, which is decent as well.

Joker Loot Slot Features

Cash Hop is the novel gaming mechanic by Jade Rabbit Studios, and that’s how big wins of the Joker Loot slot are achieved. You’ll see the Cash Hop symbol to the left of the reels, which starts on the top row and moves one position down with each spin. After it reaches the bottom row, it returns back to the top.

The Cash Hop starts with a 10x multiplier value, and landing Cash Boost symbols anywhere on the reels increases its multiplier randomly by +1x to +5x. The value of the Cash Hop can be increased indefinitely until the respins feature is triggered, after which it gets reset back to the initial value.

Landing a Blank, Multiplier Blank, Cash Boost, or a Wild Blast symbol on reel 1 on the same row with the Cash Hop triggers the Looting. feature. Once activated, the given bonus symbol will explode, and the Cash Hop will move to its position.

Then, respins proceed: the reel with Cash Hop stays still while all other reels spin again. If a special symbol lands adjacently to Cash Hop on the next reel, it moves further and the respins continue, up to the moment until a Cash Hop reaches the 5th reel and gets collected or no special symbols create a path for the Cash Hop to move. When collected, the value shown on the Cash Hop will be paid to the player.

Wilds symbols and Blanks only create paths for Cash Hops, but Multiplier Blanks increase the value of the Cash Hop whenever it lands on it. The multiplier is assigned randomly, either 2x or 3x.

Landing 3 or more Joker symbols anywhere in view during the base game awards 8 Free Spins, which are played with additional Cash Hops. Their number depends on the number of triggering Scatter symbols and can be either 3, 4, or 5.

Before the free spins kick off, players are given 3 spins on the Bonus Wheel consisting of different multiplier segments to determine the starting Cash Hops value for the feature. The numbers shown on the wheel also depend on the number of Scatter symbols used to activate the bonus, but the maximum multiplier available on the wheel is always 1,000x.

Plus, there are 3 blue segments, which not only increase the Cash Hop multiplier but also give an extra spin on the wheel.

The bonus game operates in a similar way to the base game, except for more Cash Hops are in play. During the free spins, Scatter and Cash Boost symbols are removed.

Finally, players have an opportunity to skip the less exciting part and jump straight into free games via the Buy Bonus, offering 3 different options at a fixed cost:

• 64x the bet - triggers free spins with 3 Cash Hops.
• 79x the bet - triggers free spins with 4 Cash Hops.
• 104x the bet - triggers free spins with 5 Cash Hops.

Review Summary

We always love when young slot studios drive the iGaming world further, inventing new exciting mechanics and features. Jade Rabbit Studios has done a great job, and players are bound to enjoy the Cash Hop thing. However, walking the coin bag through all five reels is not an easy task, and can be quite challenging even with 5 bags in play. Keep in mind, there’s a great risk involved, yet the rewards are pretty much worth it.
