Sparkling Jackpot Casino Games
Spin the sparkling gem stones in Cayetano’s new slot game Sparkling Jackpot as you chase the glittering top payouts. This slot is a little different to most online slot machines as it does not have regular reels or regular paylines. Instead, the symbols tumble down from above and you can match them if they are touching on the screen to receive a payout.
There are a range of features, bonuses and multipliers to keep players on their toes while the twinkling sound effects give the whole slot a magical feel.
Preparing to Glitter…
This slot game has some attractive graphics with the reels covered in brightly coloured precious gems stone, such as the red, pink, purple, orange and green gems, along with twinkling stars on the blue background. This is a simple theme and the precious gems are a tried and tested option from Cayetano, however, the tumbling grid feature is innovative and adds a fresh feel to the game.
To begin your journey into the land of the colourful stones, you need to decide on your bet. You cannot alter any paylines here as the game works in its own individual way, but you can select a total bet per spin which takes you from a minimum of €0.20 up to a maximum bet of €250 per spin. The huge betting range makes this slot game ideal for all players, whatever the size of their bankroll.
Precious Payouts from the Tumbling Reels
To hit a payout on this interesting game, you have to line up 5 precious gems touching on the screen. They can be touching from above or below or to the side – as long as they touch sides somewhere, they count as a ‘winning grab’. Whenever you hit a win, the winning symbols disappear to be replaced with new symbols – and new potential wins. Instead of just looking for 5 matching symbols across a reel, you have the potential to hit up to 15 symbols by filling the entire grid.
The regular symbols here award some reasonable payouts. The diamond is the best symbol in the game rather predictably and pays up to 1,000 coins for 15 matching symbols. The light green emerald is the second-best symbol awarding up to 750 coins, while the amber stone pays up to 500 coins. Next in line is the turquoise gem which awards up to 400 coins, while the triangular amethyst awards up to 300 coins for 15 symbols.
The lower-paying symbols are heart shaped red ruby which pays up to 250 coins for 5 symbols, the oval purple gem which pays up to 100 coins, the orange teardrop gem which pays up to 50 coins, the green diamond-shaped gem which pays up to 15 coins and finally the oblong blue gem which pays up to 5 coins for 15 symbols matching on the screen.
The goblin statue pays up to 50x your bet, the goblet and house both pay up to 40x your bet, and the toadstool and worker’s tools both pay 30x your bet for 5 matching symbols.
Instant Wins Jackpot Ladder
The most exciting feature of Sparkling Jackpot slot machine is the instant win ladder which stands on the left side of the screen. If you hit consecutive wins, you can climb the ladder towards the jackpot of 1,000x your total bet!
Spinning 4 consecutive wins awards 2x your total stake, 7 consecutive wins awards 25x your total stake, 10 consecutive wins awards 100x your total stake, and 12 consecutive wins awards you the big jackpot of 1,000x your total stake! Players who keep spinning matching symbols have the potential to clean up in a big way with the colourful gems.
Magic Gem Bonus and Random Gem Grabs
At random moments during the gameplay, symbols can clone themselves to convert all the gems in the row and column into the same symbol for some potentially huge wins. There is also a feature called Random Gem Grabs, which sees all identical gems on the screen randomly being grabbed together and paid out as if they were touching. These features can both make a great difference to players’ fortunes from the gems.
Innovative, Colourful and Potentially Lucrative
Overall, Sparkling Jackpot is a creative and intriguing offering from Cayetano. Players will enjoy the innovative tumbling reels feature that offers the chance to hit many wins from one ‘spin’. There are plenty of payouts from the gems due to the flexible matching grid system, while the instant wins jackpot ladder adds anticipation as you rack up consecutive winning spins – we manged a 25x multiplier at one point thanks to 7 consecutive lucky spins.
The other random features also offer bonus opportunities to boost your balance and although the gem symbols get a bit monotonous after a while and some alternative imagery would have made a pleasant change, overall we thoroughly enjoyed tumbling with the colourful precious stones.
