Play Jackpot Block Party for Free

If your first look at Jackpot Block Party hadn't cemented for you the theme of this game, then the bouncy, 1970-flavored disco track should do the job as soon as you take your first spin. It goes perfectly with the neon-bright colors in which the game's symbols are rendered in. Lower valued symbols featured on this online slots game start out with food, which of course is the basic ingredient of a good party. First up is a slice of layer cake with hot pink frosting, then the quintessential chip and dip bowl. Next in value is a fun yellow "Party Zone" sign featuring three dancing figures, and then a glowing green lava lamp.

The next highest symbol is a lit-up disco ball beaming lights in every color of the rainbow, and what good is a disco ball without music for it to pulse to? The highest-valued symbol in this set is an old-school turntable that's probably pouring out the disco tune accompanying each spin. Three symbols make up the higher end icons, and Jackpot Block Party is generous enough to have them appear quite regularly. The lucky number 7 is followed by a wrapped gift box, and the Jackpot Block Party symbol serves as both the highest-paying symbol and the game's Wild. If you're lucky enough to land five of these logo symbols across the reels, you'll really celebrate becuase you'll be rewarded with a 100X multiplier of your triggering bet!

One basic game that pops up often is the Present Pick Feature. This launches whenever 3, 4, or 5 wrapped present boxes appear on the reels simultaneously. The other icons fade and you're asked to choose a gift. Each has a monetary prize beneath it; your job is to click one and hope you get the one with the highest value. After you've made your selection, the boxes disappear and you can see what was beneath all three, and the one you selected appears in your bank.

Three additional symbols serve to invite you into the Block Party Feature. Feature One is a party horn blowing out streams of curled ribbon, Feature Two shows a paper blower rolling out in a burst of confetti, and Feature Three is a whizzing noisemaker with the word "feature" on the end of it. If you land three of a kind on reels 1, 3, and 5, you're presented with a new screen featuring four different parties to attend: Office Party, Costume Party, Players Party and VIP Party.

You start by selecting presents from a grid of wrapped boxes, each revealing a cash prize. Keep clicking until you land on a Buzz-Kill or Party Pooper icon to end your turn. But if you're lucky enough to click on a Plunger or Super-Plunger symbol, the other three parties open up to you. They, too, are full of presents and as you can imagine, the prizes can add up quickly if you're playing at two or more parties at once.

There's nothing overly complex about playing Jackpot Block Party, and that's welcome when you just want to have fun. Wagers are simple to set and range from 0.01 for 1 line, up to 4.50 when you bet the maximum of 0.15 on all 30 lines.

Jackpot Block Party isn't the only party-themed slot offered by WMS. Super Jackpot Party offers a similarly colorful good time, but with different enough symbols and features to make it a totally different experience. Jackpot Block Party is not to be confused with Super Jackpot Party or the original Jackpot Party, which are two different WMS party slots.
