Jelly Reels™ Easter Mobile: Slot Review & Theme

Wazdan's Hold the Jackpot series has been a hit with players, and Jelly Reels: Hold the Jackpot offers a chance to win big on a massive 8x8 grid with 16,777,216 ways to win. The game takes place in a candy land that could make Willy Wonka jealous, and you can choose from three options to set your own pace and volatility level. Wilds are plentiful in the base game, with up to 3x3 mega symbols and sticky bonus symbols that trigger the main attraction: respins of all winning combinations during this feature round.

The Hold the Jackpot bonus game is one of our favorites, with an upper grid packed with exciting special symbols you can unlock. This is how you can win smaller jackpots and accumulators with multiplier boosts and mystery symbols. The Grand Jackpot worth 2,500x can only be won by filling the grid with sticky cash coins, and this is an overall solid release that sticks out from many similar installments.

Paytable and Bet Size

The bet size ranges from 0.10 to 10,000. The top payout is 2,500x your initial bet.

The paytable values run from four to eight matching symbols, with the highest payouts for eight matching symbols: Lucky Seven x500, Gummi Bear x300, Star Sweet x200, Lemon x100, Raspberry and Watermelon x80, and Strawberry and Cherry x50.

Feature of Jelly Reels™ Easter Mobile

Based on the island of Malta, which is known for its gaming companies, Wazdan is a developer with a well-established reputation. Wazdan slots are played in many jurisdictions worldwide and are available as free play slots here at BC.GAME. Wazdan slot themes cover a range of possibilities, from Jelly Reels, competing with Evoplay's Jelly Boom slot--a massive grid filled with confectionery versions of traditional fruits--to Dragon Realm and its magical creatures that can bring players great riches.

Jelly Reels has an eight-reel, eight-column grid with a staggering 16,777,216 potential pay lines. The minimum bet size is 0.10, and the maximum is 10,000. Eight symbols appear on the reels: lucky seven, gummi bear, star sweet, lemon and raspberry (blue), watermelon (green), strawberry (pink), and cherry (red). The wild symbol is a multi-colored square sweet, and the bonus symbol is a gold coin.

Rainbow-Colored Jelly Wild

The rainbow-colored jelly Wild steps in for all regular symbols to help complete winning combos. The wild holds no value and will replace any other symbol on the reels except the bonus symbols, which pay between 1 and 8 x your stake for eight matching symbols on any row from uttermost left to right. You can also land 2x2 and 3x3 mega versions of the symbols(except the bonus symbols), which will land either fully or partially in view.

Cascading Wins Mechanic

The Cascading Wins feature clears away all winning symbols in one go, allowing new and/or existing symbols to drop down to fill the gaps. This feature can award consecutive wins indefinitely per paid round and only stops when you land a non-winning cascade.

Hold the Jackpot Bonus Game

The Hold the Jackpot Bonus Game is triggered by landing 6+ gold coin Bonus symbols anywhere in view. Three to five such symbols award a paid respin where the triggering bonus coins are held. This may help you land enough to trigger the feature.

The Hold the Jackpot Bonus Game is played on a grid with 40 positions divided into lower and upper parts. The upper part is locked, but triggering Bonus coins become sticky on the lower 8x4 grid. Three respins are available at the start of each game, and each new sticky gold coin you land resets the respins tally to 3 again.

The lower grid comes with the following symbols: Gold coins worth between 1 and 5 times your stake. Snake symbols that slither toward the highest value gold coin present, leaving behind additional 1x gold coins and doubling the value of any coins they cross.

The upper part of the grid consists of 4x2 more prominent 4x4 sized positions. These positions are all locked as the feature starts. The upper positions can reveal three different-sized jackpots, Silver Coins, and Mystery Symbols. During the feature, you unlock an upper grid position by filling the corresponding four lower grid positions with sticky coins.

Here's an overview of what these symbols do:

• Mini Jackpot pays 15x your stake.
• Minor Jackpot pays 30x your stake.
• Major Jackpot pays 150x your stake.
• Silver Coin accumulates all values from the coins directly below on the lower grid and applies a random multiplier between x1 to x5 to the accumulated sum.
• Mystery symbols can become any other symbols revealed individually as the feature ends.
  
  

All the symbol values are added when the Hold the Jackpot feature ends. If you fill all 40 positions, the Grand Jackpot of 2,500x your stake is awarded. This is the capped max win, so it's paid alone while nullifying all other wins.

Bonus Buy

Players can activate one of three bonus options by clicking the "bonus buy" button. The cost of each option corresponds to a different volatility setting and immediately triggers the "Hold the Jackpot" feature; it ranges from 50x to 300x your bet.

Unique Gamble Feature

With some luck, you can double your winnings up to 7 times in a row by choosing the right coin color.

Jelly Reels™ Easter Mobile: Summary
