Joker Lanterns: Hit ‘N’ Roll Bonus Features

With the newly added Hit ‘n’ Roll mechanic, the developer injected more thrills and prizes into the otherwise familiar gameplay of the Joker series. Other bonus features include the sinister-looking pumpkin multiplier wilds and a 3-mode free spins bonus round. Players wanting to gain express access to one of two bonus variations can use the developer’s signature buy bonus function called Hyper Bonus.

Wilds

As a spooky slot, Joker Lanterns: Hit ‘n’ Roll comes not with one but several Jack o’lantern-esque wilds. The regular carved pumpkin wilds substitute for all symbols except scatters and multiplier wilds. The base game multiplier wilds can only appear on reels 2-4; they don’t substitute for scatters and have a value of 2x attached to them. During free spins, you’ll have an extra 3x, 4x and 5x multiplier wilds joining the eerie reels.

Scatters

The star-shaped Hit ‘n’ Roll symbols behave like scatters. When 3 hit the reels at the same, they’ll activate the prize wheel containing prizes. Look out for scatters on reels 2, 3 and 4 in both the base game and free spins.

Hit ‘n’ Roll Feature

As a game’s star feature, the Hit ‘n’ Roll bonus awards one of the three following prizes:

• Cashpot – your cashpot starts at 1 and grows up to 5 during the base game. The longer it takes you to activate the Hit ‘n’ Roll prize wheel, the more the cashpot will increase in value, up to 50,000x your stake!
• Instant cash – when a cash prize is triggered via the bonus wheel, you’ll have the cash prize instantly added to your play balance.
• Free spins with multiplier wilds – similar to the Cashpot mini-feature, the free spins count starts at 5 free spins and increases with every base spin, up to 25. Hitting free spins via the wheel awards the respective bonus round with multipliers.

Free Spins

The game has 3 types of free spins available to trigger via the Hit ‘n’ Roll bonus wheel. Each type has a multiplier wild worth 3x, 4x and 5x, and the initial number of free spins, from 5 up to 25, is determined by the free spins metre in the base game. Additionally, a bonus accumulator is introduced during free spins – collecting 3 golden star symbols awards an extra 3 free spins.

Hyper Bonus

Using the Hyper Bonus function, you can buy and immediately start one of two bonus options – a cashpot wheel or a free spins wheel.

Joker Lanterns: Hit ‘n’ Roll Jackpot

We didn’t spot any progressive jackpots in the Hit ‘n’ Roll slot version, but you’ll be hard pushed to miss the game’s gigantic max potential. The top prize, worth 50,000x your stake, is available for grabs via the Cashpot wheel feature,.

RTP and Volatility

According to the key stats, the game’s volatility is super high. The RTP, however, seems to have suffered a massive drop from 97.42% to 96.17% compared to the original game of Joker Lanterns.
