About Jackpot Jamba
Would you go out to a Jackpot Jamba if you were invited? Well I for one would like to find out first what that is all about. Jamba is a Swahili word which means to “pass wind”. Wait a minute! I’m pretty sure that’s not what BetSoft had in mind when creating this nine pay line video slot! It’s more likely that it got its name from the Smoothie chain “Jamba Juice” whereby one of the African languages has the word "jama," which means "to celebrate”. And what a swinging party we have here.
This little soiree gets the party atmosphere going with some light jazz music on the background. Jazz was really popular back in the 1920s so this could give some indication of time-frame that this slot’s theme is based on. Containing five-reels, the bet per coin runs from $0.02 to a maximum of $1 which won’t break to bank too soon. A really nice aspect is that combinations don’t’ have to be from the leftmost side to the right. If as few as two cherries appear adjacent to each other the prize corresponding prize will be awarded.
This festive cheer contains party blowers, Martini glasses, cherries, plums, red 7’s and wrapped up presents.
Special Features
There is WILD party hat that will substitute any symbol on the reels except for the jackpot icon. Apart from this Jackpot Jamba slot does not have any special attractions like scatters, multipliers or gamble features, so other video slots may have more variety than this one.
It does present a chance to win a progressive jackpot though; all you need is five of the jackpot symbols to form a paying line and the coin value coupled with the bet per line need to be maxed out, in other words you need to spend $45 per spin. The progressive jackpot is fed by gameplay throughout the world which increases its value.
Bonus Feature
What would a party be with a bonus round? There are purple party sevens which can really get you celebrating when five of them are on a pay line. This proceeds to a special screen where four coloured balloons float up and all of them are hiding a credit prize. Simply pop the one you think has the most value and your credits will be added your total. Almost nothing could be simpler. The balloons hols anything from 25 credits all the way to 300 credits.
