Jackpot6000 mobile is a new mobile pokie brought to you by NetEnt, the creators of some of the best mobile casino pokies around such as South Park and Aliens. It’s a take on the classic Danish pokie, Jackpot2000 – that one was a favourite of it’s time and we’re sure this one will be too.
In Denmark, the original game was a huge hit and, despite the simple gameplay, it really is quite entertaining. We thought it would be easy to get bored with this but NetEnt have managed to bring an old legend back to life and give users an experience that’s worthy of the better mobile casino games around.
This pokie takes you back to the days of standing in the local boozer and playing your favourite fruit machine – all the classic symbols are there – your lemons, cherries, bells etc; although there are a couple of new and different ones along with a couple of fresh takes on that sort of game.
It’s a simple premise – a three-reel pokie with the well-known pub fruit machine symbols and the idea is to make winning lines across the reels. There’s only 5 bet lines to play and 10 different bet levels.
There’s a coin value level ranging from $0.10 to $1, meaning the range of bets you can make go from $0.10 to $10 – it’s a great game for a low to mid stakes pokie player.
There’s loads of chances to win with a solid paytable seeing payouts range from 20 coins for lemons and cherries, up to 100 coins for a winning line made up of stars. Once you’ve won though, this is when it gets interesting as it really brings out the gamble in you.
You will get the option to either collect your winnings – the safe option, transfer your winnings to the supermeter game (more on that below) or gamble your winnings to see if you can double them. The doubling feature is the ‘heads or tails’ coin feature which, as soon as you make a winning line, will start flashing on the right of the game. If you wish to try your luck and double your winnings, you simply choose heads or tails and when the light stops flashing you’ll know if you’ve won or not.
The other feature that boosts your winnings is the supermeter game. Across the top of the game lies the supermeter and once you win on the main game, you can ‘transfer’ some or all – up to you – of your winnings over to the supermeter game. Once it’s there, just spin the reels again and this time you may see some joker symbols turn up on it. Get two anywhere on the reels and you’ll win a mystery amount – we got a mystery amount of 2040 when we played.
The more jokers that hit your reels, the bigger your winnings can be – win in the supermeter mode and you can then continue to play within the mode to win more or until your winnings are gone. You could also collect your winnings and head back to the main game. This feature keeps the game exciting and differentiates it from other basic pokies.
Overall – it may not have the draw of some of the insanely good video pokies out there but Jackpot6000 mobile really holds it’s own.
