What Are Jackpot Slots?
Jackpot slots play like other slot games. The aim is to land matching symbols across your reels. You’ll also find plenty of bonus features, like free spins. Where these jackpot games differ is with the added bonus of a special, larger prize pool – this is the jackpot. Jackpot slot games are often fan favourites in online casinos.
There are many different types of jackpot slots, but they can usually be broken down into the following:
1. Fixed jackpot slots: These games have fixed prizes that are a set amount, usually a multiple of your bet per spin, such as 250x your bet.
2. Progressive jackpot slots: With progressive slots, the jackpot grows and grows as people play, until one lucky person triggers it. Progressive jackpots often have no upper limit.
3. Hourly/Daily jackpot slots: These games have progressive jackpot prizes that must be won within a specific time, such as every hour or every day. These slots often have a timer that shows you how long you have left to be awarded the progressive jackpot.
How Do Jackpot Slots Work?
How specific jackpot slot games work depends on the slot itself. Some jackpots can be triggered randomly on any spin, while others require you to land specific symbols or play a unique bonus feature.
As with all online slot games, a Random Number Generator (RNG) determines outcomes on jackpot slots. This computer program uses a complex algorithm to ensure every spin is completely random and fair. Independent bodies also audit the system to ensure it stays fair.
Each time you spin the reels on a jackpot slot, all outcomes will be 100% random. This includes standard spins in the base game, free spins, bonus features, and, of course, the jackpots themselves.
What Different Jackpot Values Are Available?
Jackpot slots typically offer different jackpots, with most casino slots including 4 values. Each has a unique value, and you can trigger them in different ways. Let’s have a look at some of the classic, traditional jackpot values available:
Mini
Minor
Major
Mega
Not every slot game includes these jackpot names, but they're among the most traditional names for jackpots in slot games. Typically, these are triggered through bonus mechanics, with the Mega jackpot being the most valuable and the Mini jackpot the lowest.
The Difference Between Jackpot Slots And Regular Slots
The core gameplay of jackpot slots and regular online slots is the same. You need to spin the reels to land matched combinations across the available paylines. You’ll likely see some of the same bonus features too, like free spins, multipliers and cascading reels.
The key difference is the jackpot prize pool, which is separate from standard in-game prizes. Some jackpot slots have a fixed jackpot that stays the same no matter how many people play, while others have a progressive prize.
This prize pot grows with the number of people who play the slot or a group of linked slots. Each time a player wagers on a progressive slot game, a portion of their stake goes towards the progressive jackpot. This keeps growing until one player triggers it all. The prize pot then resets and keeps growing as more players spin the reels. Think of it like the National Lottery, with a pot that grows the more people that bet on the game.
Some progressive jackpots apply to one slot only, whereas others apply across a network of slots. This means each time a player stakes on one of the linked games, the prize pot increases across all the linked games.
How To Choose The Right Jackpot Slot For You
With so many jackpot slots available, the right choice depends on what features matter most to you. Some players may prefer games with progressive jackpots, whilst others might look for jackpot games with unique bonuses or original themes. Before playing, check the key features of a jackpot slot so you can find a game that suits your preferences.
When choosing a jackpot slot, consider:
Jackpot Type - Consider whether you prefer a fixed jackpot with a set prize amount or a progressive jackpot, which changes over time.
Game Volatility - Volatility refers to the types of prize values typically awarded during gameplay, whether they are more frequent and lower or less frequent and higher.
Bonus Features - Depending on what bonuses are included, this can influence the type of slot game you play. Some jackpot slots include multipliers, wild symbols and free spins, which can change the dynamics of the slot game.
Theme and gameplay style - Every jackpot slot has a different theme and game design, so it is important to find one with a theme that suits you and a gameplay style you prefer.
