Jackpot Giant is a Playtech title with a progressive jackpot that can be won only in case of a maximum bet, and other than that, the slot game offers little in terms of gameplay.

It’s either a Jackpot or nothing!

Jackpot Giant introduction, including RTP and variance

Jackpot Giant is a 3×5 game with 50 paylines and a Wild symbol which can win you the jackpot if you land five of them on a payline. The game also features two stacked symbols, two symbols high, and seven more symbols on your reels plus Wild and two Scatters, one that pays and the other that triggers the bonus game.

Jackpot Giant has a theoretical payout (RTP) of only 94.22%, which is low but around the expected level for progressive jackpot slots.

The variance is high, as playing Jackpot Giant is a losing game unless you can win the Jackpot.

Gameplay and Pay Table

The game has four card symbols which don’t pay much and only serve to populate your reels with a worthless symbol. The next two symbols in line are the two Giants, which pay marginally better than the card symbols, but are stacked – two rows high – so you’re expected to get multiple winning paylines at one time.

The three Crystals are the actual high-paying symbols in the game, the Pink one being the most valuable, and then there’s the paying Scatter which pays the same as the Pink Crystal.

Finally, the Wild is the most valuable symbol in the game, and it pays 50,000 coins for five-of-a-kind, a hundred times more than the Scatter, and getting five Wilds also wins you the progressive Jackpot.

Jackpot Giant bonus features

Jackpot Giant doesn’t have a free spins game, and a pick-a-prize type of bonus game replaces it, and, of course, the Jackpot that can be won in this slot game. To trigger the Giant Bonus game, you need to land Bonus Scatters on reels 1 and 5. After that, you’ll see the Giant behind six Volcanoes, and you’ll get to pick three Volcanoes to get your prize.

The maximum you can win is some 15x your bet size, and the minimum is around 10x. If you’re lucky, you may get an extra pick or may win all Volcano prizes at once, in which case you’ll have a chance to earn more than 15x, likely around 25x.

A progressive jackpot can be won in Jackpot Giant slot, and to qualify for it, you need to play the maximum bet, which is 4 GBP. This makes Jackpot Giant a costly game to play, and if you want to go down that route, be prepared with a bankroll of at least 1,000 GBP and be aware that the Jackpot will likely not come your way.

And since the game lacks a rewarding bonus feature, you’ll be down to what you win in the base game.

CasinoWizard’s verdict on the Jackpot Giant video slot

Jackpot Giant is a one-trick pony where you’ll either win the Jackpot or will lose money trying to win the Jackpot. The game doesn’t offer much in terms of gameplay and doesn’t spread the chances to win across several features. It’s only one – either get those five Wilds or don’t.

The game is pretty popular among players, indicating many want to play this kind of game because they’re attracted by the Jackpot.

CasinoWizard is not too keen on slots with lower-than-average RTPs, so Jackpot Giant’s poor payout percentage of 94.22% doesn’t help matters either.
