There’s nothing like a great online video slot based on a fairytale you knew and loved as a child, or perhaps you enjoy telling it to your children today. Whatever the case, we know have another fairytale-based slot game called Jack’s Beanstalk. Developed by NextGen Gaming, I don’t think we have to tell you what famous fairytale it’s based on.
Jack’s Beanstalk Theme and Graphics
While this is not the first time we’ve seen a slot game based on Jack and the Beanstalk, this is the first one that NextGen gaming has developed. The beautiful background behind the reels is a view of the land down below from atop the clouds.
There are some beanstalks growing around the bottom of the screen and the symbols used are reminiscent of the tale, including Jack, the Giant, an Axe, a Castle and the Golden Egg.
Jack’s Beanstalk Features
Jack’s Beanstalk is a five-reel, 25 payline video slot. It has a decently wide betting range so even players with smaller budgets will feel comfortable to jump in and start having some fun. As for the special features of this game, there are two bonus game modes.
The first is the Golden Egg Bonus game, which is triggered by getting three Golden Egg scatter symbols on the reels. Once this happens, you will be presented with five different Geese and the player gets to select three of them. Each will come will come with a prize, which is a multiplier of your original bet. These range from 25x to a massive 2500x, so you can win some seriously big money in this round.
Next up we have the Upwild Feature. This happens when you land a Magic Bean symbol on reel two, three or four. After you manage to do this, you will get three free spins and a wild symbol will begin to grow up the reel with each spin.
There’s also the typical Gamble Feature that gives you the chance to double or quadruple your win after each winning combination.
Jack’s Beanstalk Conclusion
NextGen Gaming has done a pretty good job with Jack’s Beanstalk. The visuals and animations are really great and the Upwild feature is rather creative. All in all, this is definitely worth a look if you are into your video slot games.
