Wild Jack Slot – Free Demo

What 460 spins on three reels looked like

BF Games is the Kinder Egg of iGaming; you never know what you're going to get. I put 460 spins through this one at a flat 150.00 stake. It could be an unexpectedly fine game (seldom), or thoroughly dreadful, and there is always a measure of expectation and optimism tied to fresh game launches from BF Games. My session closed at 17,845.00 credits from a 10,000.00 start. The issue, however, is that there is a lot of inconsistency and fluctuation in quality. Combinations have to start on the leftmost reel and run rightwards, with the Scatter the one exception. Regrettably I haven't seen a game as fine as those earlier launches in years. The five bonus rounds I hit accounted for 20% of everything the session won.

Wild Jack is a 3 reeler with 3 rows and only 27 ways to win, and players can wager from 0.10 credits. Only the highest win from any one symbol is paid, so a second combination of the same fruit is discarded. BF Games slots have a marginally lower RTP than slots created by most other well-entrenched game providers. Any win can also be taken to the Gamble, a red-or-black double-or-nothing that runs a maximum of four steps. The 96.12% RTP encountered here is not the lowest I've seen. My balance peaked at 29,260.00 credits on spin 267 and its lowest point was 8,425.00.

Stacked fruit, one Jack per reel

Looking at this pay table most definitely won't get anyone thrilled, and the ways to win are restricted. The rules cap a single spin at 9,450.00 credits and a whole round at 233,550.00. Should you land the best possible spin, the entire game is only worth 63 times the stake.

The standard symbols are depicted by fruits of assorted shapes and sizes: Orange, Watermelon, Grapes and Cherry, all of them stacked, and nine matching fruits on screen triple the win. The wild is the Jack, one per reel, substituting for everything but the scatter. Wild and Scatter never share a reel, and a combination of Wilds on their own still pays. The scatter symbol arrives in the form of a Wagon. Scatters by themselves cannot form a win.

How the Free Spins round runs

Bear with me; the Free Spins game is a bit easy to describe. My first round came on spin 80 and paid 1,500.00 credits, ten times the stake. Players need to land 3 or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels to permit entry to the free spins mode, and the number of free spins granted is 15. Across five rounds the feature paid 15,150.00 credits in total.

At the trigger bet and on an alternative reel set, the free spins are played. The best of the five landed on spin 195 and paid 5,400.00 credits, taking the balance to 25,090.00.

A retrigger may be granted inside the round. The rounds on spins 80, 267 and 343 each ran their 15 spins without one. 15 more spins are appended to the running count.

Minty’s Final Note: Wild Jack tops out at 63 times the stake on a single spin, and both times I reached that figure the win came off the base game rather than the Free Spins; the five bonus rounds together made 20% of everything the session won.

Where Wild Jack finished

Having played 460 spins and 5 bonuses I managed to get the feature up to 36 times the stake. The other four rounds returned 10, 12, 21 and 22 times the stake. The 63x max win surfaced twice in the base game instead, so extracting anything respectable out of the bonus is tough. Those two 9,450.00 credit spins landed on 140 and 243.

In my view, it's one of the better looking games created by BF Games. A correct call on the Gamble doubles the amount and a wrong one takes it, up to a ceiling of 25,000.00. The prospect of a retrigger adds extra seasoning to the meat. 226 of the 460 spins paid, and 161 of those returned less than the 150.00 stake. This is likely not a slot that will produce many 63x wins, but it seems to be a solid wagering slot. The longest run without a win was seven spins, ending on spin 169.

Back on February 15, 2017, BF Games released Wild Jack. My 460 spins wagered 69,000.00 credits and returned 76,845.00. If you're searching for more BF Games slots, check out Wild Jack Remastered and Fruitastic.
