Everybody's Jackpot Introduction
Everybodys Jackpot is an exciting online pokie by software developers Playtech, available on desktop and mobile. The theme of this game is a cheesy television game show with a unique style. Instead of playing with reels, you play on a 3x3 grid and have the chance to win big payouts and a share of the random progressive jackpot.
The game is simple to play and also offers a lucrative free spins round. Obviously this game is available to play for Free - just like the hundreds of other free pokies we have at Online Pokies 4U.
Theme and Payouts
The theme of this pokie is a bright and colourful gameshow with sparkling hosts who are introduced in the video as the game loads up. It is possible to skip the video if you want to get straight into the action. There are only 8 paylines in this pokie, but with only 3 reels this is not a problem and there are plenty of chances to hit a payout.
The symbols on display on the grid are all related to big money, such as a gold necklace, gold bars, a wad of cash and a gold watch, along with the two glamorous hosts. Other symbols include the high card symbols, Q, K and A, together with the special icons, the wild and scatter symbol. The best paying symbol is the male host who pays out 250 x your line bet for 3 in a row.
Free Spins Round
The Everybodys Jackpot icon is scatter and if you manage to spin 3 of these you'll trigger the free spins round, giving 12 free spins. During this round the wild symbols start to appear on the middle reel. Although this is the only time these symbols appear, the free spins round crops up often enough to make sure you can enjoy plenty of extra wild wins.
There is no multiplier during the free spins round but this doesn't detract from the game since the smaller grid allows for more wilds to appear in the payout. This gives more wins to keep your bank balance topped up, allowing for a longer play time. Small bets are allowed, such a $0.08 minimum bet, which also makes this an easy game to play for all budgets.
Progressive Jackpot
The main feature of Everybodys Jackpot is the big progressive jackpot waiting to be won. This prize is totally random and can be activated at any time. Everyone has a chance of winning the big money and the cash is also shared out more generously than progressive jackpots in most other online pokies. The player who triggers the win gets 70% of the total payout.
15% of the jackpot is given to other qualifying players and another 15% is given to players who qualified in the previous 24 hours, relative to the amount that they bet. The progressive jackpot starts at $75,000, so this is a real pay day for the lucky spinner. The great thing about Everybodys Jackpot is that you do not need to be the one to trigger the jackpot in order to win a payout.
Provided that you qualify, you can sit back and hope someone else triggers it! There is a useful progress bar at the side of the reels which shows whether you have qualified for the jackpot and how much you need to bet in order to be in with a chance of winning.
