Yggdrasil Gaming
Introducing the Jackpot Express video slot, featuring three distinct Free Spin modes, a thrilling Jackpot Bonus Game, and the opportunity to win one of three Jackpots.
Jackpot Express presents itself as a Video Slot boasting 5 reels and 20 paylines, arranged from left to right. Within the game, eight regular symbols promise winnings when three or more align consecutively on a payline, starting from the leftmost position. Additionally, a Bonus symbol holds the key to triggering Free Spins or accessing the Jackpot Game when three of them land anywhere on the reels.
The game flaunts three enticing jackpots, all interconnected with those of Jackpot Raiders, ensuring that when a jackpot is claimed in Jackpot Express, it resets to its initial value in both Jackpot Express and Jackpot Raiders.
Players engage with a dynamic 3-level wheel of fortune. Each time the arrow symbols are struck, players progress to the subsequent wheel. The rewards awaiting them include the chance to claim one of three Jackpots, earn coin rewards, or trigger respins on the wheel.
Featuring 9 regular symbols, winnings are granted when three or more align consecutively on a payline, starting from the leftmost reel. High-paying symbols showcase artifacts from various epochs, while low-paying symbols depict card suits. Additionally, a wild symbol substitutes for all regular symbols, alongside the scatter Free Spin symbol.
Wilds make appearances both in the base game and during Free Spin mode, ensuring at least one wild symbol per Free Spin.
Free Spin symbols exclusively emerge in the base game. Three of these symbols trigger a random Free Spin mode with the standard number of Free Spins, while four symbols activate a mode with double the default Free Spins, and five symbols lead to a mode with triple the default Free Spins.
One of the four free spin features are awarded randomly when you get 3 scatters and each free spin feature has different amount of spins and multiplier. The Prehistoric Free Spins awards 5 Free Spins. The entire Free Spin session has a 5x multiplier and 1-20 adjacent wilds are awarded each Free Spin. The Egyptian Free Spins awards 6 Free Spins. The entire Free Spin session has a 4x multiplier and 1-20 diagonal wilds are awarded each Free Spin. The Medieval Free Spins awards 7 Free Spins. The entire Free Spin session has a 3x multiplier and 4-20 cluster wilds are awarded each Free Spin. The Future Free Spins awards 12 default Free Spins. The entire Free Spin session has a 2x multiplier and 1-20 random wilds are awarded each Free Spin.
Wild Robots, at times stacked and equipped with multipliers, trigger Free Respins upon entering the game area. These machines introduce a distinctive element to the reels, persistently respinning until they vanish from view. Landing three or more scatters transports you deep into the factory's shadowy basement, where Free Spins Mode awaits. Here, more Wild Robots await, though some are flawed. A system overload triggers a malfunction, causing the conveyor belt to reverse, granting players a second chance with used robots and prolonging the duration of the mode.
Acquiring three or more scatters in Free Spin Mode grants you up to 15 additional robots. Moreover, when low-paying symbols of the same type appear, there's a chance they'll morph into their higher-paying counterparts!
There exist three types of Robos. The first is the Robo Wild, ranging from 1x1 symbols to 2x4 symbols. Always positioned on the Robo conveyor belt, they shift one position to the left with each spin. While active on the reels, a Respin is granted. Robos become inactive upon reaching reel 1 but still pay out, albeit without triggering Free Spins or Respins. Wild Robos act as regular Wild symbols when on the reels. The second type is the x2 Wild Robo, which functions similarly to the Robo Wild but also applies a x2 multiplier to any winning combination it is part of. The final type is the Free Spin Robo, always a 1x1 symbol, capable of appearing on any row and shifting one position to the left with each spin. It also grants a Respin while active on the reels.
Robo Respins occur randomly in the base game only. Alongside the Robo Respin, a Robo is placed on the conveyor belt on reels 3, 4, or 5. As long as an active Robo is present on the reels, the Respins persist.
Robo Free Spins are triggered by landing 3 or more Free Spin symbols in a single spin. Instead of receiving Free Spins, players are awarded Robos, spaced 1-3 spots apart on the conveyor belt, moving from right to left. These Robos grant Free Spins as long as they remain active on the reels. Free Spin symbols also appear during Robo Free Spins, adding the same number of Robos to the queue as when activating Robo Free Spins.
Robo Free Spin mode maintains the same lines and bet as the activating spin. If Free Spins are triggered during a Robo Respin, the Free Spin mode activates only after the Respins conclude. Multiple Free Spin mode triggers can be obtained in a single Robo Respin round, accumulating all earned Robos into a single Robo Free Spin session.
In the base game, Robo Free Spins, and Robo Respins, any single low-paying symbol may randomly transform into its high-paying equivalent to secure a win. For instance, green low-paying symbols could convert to green high-paying symbols.
During Robo Free Spins, the conveyor belt may randomly reverse, moving all Robos backward by 1-9 positions. This feature activates only if at least 3 Robos have traversed the conveyor belt beyond reel 1. A maximum of 4 system overloads can be triggered in a single Free Spin session.
Each city boasts distinct features – such as Walking Wilds, Win Multipliers, Wild Reels, and Random Wilds – accessible via Free Spins. Upon arriving in Istanbul and unlocking all destinations, you can freely select your preferred locale and feature following each Free Spins round. So, dress in your finest attire and immerse yourself in the elite realm of gaming aboard the Orient Express!
Walking Wilds emerge atop random symbols once the reels halt, offering a Free re-Spin and shifting left to the adjacent reel. Re-spins continue as long as at least one walking wild symbol remains on the reels, with the possibility of new walking wilds appearing during re-spins. In the base game, Walking Wilds materialize randomly on any reel, while in Free Spin mode, they occur more frequently.
The Multiplier clock materializes after a successful spin to bestow a win multiplier. In the base game, a 2-5x multiplier is randomly applied to winning spins, while in Free Spin mode, a 2-5x multiplier enhances all winning spins.
Miniature trains traverse from the right side of the game panel to the left, granting a wild reel wherever they halt. During the base game, 1-3 reels may transform into wild reels during a spin, whereas in Free Spin mode, 1-3 reels are converted into wild reels with each Free Spin.
Postcards flutter onto random symbols, transforming them into wilds. However, random wilds cannot appear atop Free Spin symbols or Wild symbols. In the base game, 2-12 symbols are randomly converted into wilds, while in Free Spin mode, 2-12 symbols undergo this transformation after each Free Spin.
