Wild Jack is a wild west themed video slot from BF Games. With a low number of reels, a high number of paylines and an excellent roster of features it really sets out its stall to try and grab players attention from the very start.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- 27 paylines is a lot of ways to win for 3 reels
- The free spins feature can be retriggered
- A full reel of symbols multiplies all wins by 3
Cons
- The maximum payout is quite low
- The RTP is not available
Gameplay, Playability and Volatility
Wild Jack offers a traditional slot experience to players that harks back to old 3 reel slots. However, it mixes this with new innovations like bonus features. There is also the added bonus that if you manage to fill the reels with just one symbol then as well as filling up all 27 paylines but also your win will be tripled.
Gamble feature
Whenever you create winning line you have the opportunity to gamble with your winnings. This is basically a choice between a red and black playing card. If you choose the correct colour then you will double your winnings, if you choose the wrong colour then you lose them. You can keep gambling for as long as you like.
Free spins
Whenever you manage to land 3 or more scatter symbols on the reels at once then you will trigger the free spins mode. This instantly awards 15 free spins which have a 3 times multiplier attached to them. In addition to this the free spins feature can also be retriggered.
Volatility
Wild Jack has a medium to high volatility. This means that wins don’t come along that often.
RTP, Wagers and payouts
The RTP for Wild Jack is not available. This isn’t good as it may lead players to think that BF Games have something to hide.
The maximum wager of €50 means that high bankroll players may not be enticed by Wild Jack, especially not for a long term game. The minimum wager of €0.10 does mean that low bankroll players do have the ability to play the game for a long period of time. Despite the medium to high volatility the maximum payout of 150 times your stake is a really low payout that will definitely put off players.
Wild Jack: Overall
Wild Jack is a really enjoyable and fun video slot. However, it has a few issues that do undo some of the hard work BF Games have put in. Firstly, the maximum win is really low especially for a game with a mid to high volatility. Secondly, not releasing the RTP is not a good look. On the whole Wild Jack is an enjoyable game and if BF Games can sort out those two flaws then it would be at the top of most people’s to play lists. 3/5
