Jack and the Beanstalk is one of the
definitively most popular slot machines ever
released online. It's made by the Swedish slot
provider Net Entertainment, that has also made
Creature from the Black Lagoon which is
quite a similar slot gameplay wise. Jack and the
Beanstalk is based on the famous tell about Jack
and the growing beanstalk and NetEnt have
captured the story in a great way. During the
base game any wild symbol that appear will
become a walking wild and create several
re-spins. This feature is becoming extremely
valuable during the free spins, cause there it's
possible to upgrade the wild symbols to for
example expanding wilds. And expanding wild
symbols appearing on several lines with a
walking wild feature is very valuable! The
maximal win during one single spin can be won
during the free spins and it would pay 3.000x
the stake for that combination alone, then you
get more re-spins to increase the win with! The
payout percentage on Jack and the Beanstalk is
just below the average at 96.30%, but it's
absolutely playable!

Jack and the Beanstalk has wild symbols on
all the 5 reels. These symbols substitute for
all other symbols except the chest symbols that
trigger the free spins. The wild symbols come
with a special feature, in addition to being
wilds, they are also walking symbols. This means
that they will activate a re-spin where they
move one position in the left direction for each
new spin. This will continue until the wild
symbol has moved out of the reels on the left
hand side. A wild landing on reel 4 will for
example move to reel 3, 2 and 1 before it
disappears, and free re-spins will be rewarded
for each position it moves. The wild symbols
will also multiply all wins they substitute in
with a x3 win multiplier. The main feature on
this slot machine is however the free spins.
Free spins: The free spins on Jack and
the Beanstalk is triggered by getting 3 or more
treasure chests anywhere on the reels. There is
a little bug on this slot, the slot is
programmed to play a "pling" sound every time a
winning combination is lining up, but for the
chests it's played prematurely before the last
chest is shown. So if you have 2 chests and no
other wins on a payline and a "pling" is played,
this will mean that the last chest is coming!
The feature starts with 10 free spins, and an
additional 5 free spins will be rewarded for any
3 of a kind or higher combination of chests
during the free spins.
During the free spins several new wild symbols
might be introduced. In the down right corner
there's a wild meter showing money bags, golden
hens and golden harps. Each of these symbols
have 3 empty slots over them, to fill the empty
slots a key symbol is needed on the 5th reel.
This symbol is only available during the free
spins, and each time it shows a slot is filled
from left to right in the wild meter. When 3
slots are filled the normal wild symbol upgrades
to a double money bag symbol. This symbol works
like the normal wild, but it covers one more
space on the reel height wise.
3 additional keys will fill up the golden hens
wild symbols. This will transform all wilds to
become stacked. So now it's possible to get wild
symbols that cover the whole reel. The final
wild symbol is activated if a total of 9 keys
are collected. This will make all wild symbols
single wilds, but they will all become expanding
wilds for all the remaining spins. The essential
thing on this slot machine is to get several
wild symbols during the free spins, as these
symbols reward you with addition re-spins that
doesn't reflect the amount of spins left. So for
each new wild symbol that lands, the chance of
getting all the keys is increasing because of
all the added re-spins.
