Joker Lanterns Hit 'n' Roll Review

This slot studio seems to have found a gameplay formula that works, and they are happy to keep repeating it. With Joker Lanterns Hit ‘n’ Roll, they decided to throw that formula into a Halloween slot – and the final result works! The playing field is straightforward, and it consists of 5 reels, 4 rows and 40 paylines.

The theme of Joker Lanterns Hit ‘n’ Roll combines your basic fruit theme with creepy-looking pumpkins. There’s also an atmospheric soundtrack on offer, and it’s easy on the eyes. It’s nothing out of the ordinary, but it’s a self-contained experience that works well.

Moving on, the slot’s volatility is high, and its hit frequency is 15.10%. That means you’ll have to deal with plenty of losing spins, but it will be worth it if you manage to get somewhere close to the overall jackpot of 50,000x. The least that you can play for is £0.30, while high rollers can risk up to £45 per spin. As for the game’s theoretical RTP, it can be 88%, 91%, 93%, 95%, or 96%.

Joker Lanterns Hit ‘n’ Roll Slot Features

There are 10 pay symbols in total in Joker Lanterns Hit ‘n’ Roll, and they can be divided into 6 low pays and 4 high pays. For the former, there are fruit symbols with cherries, plums, grapes, melons, four-leaf clovers, and bells. These can pay up to 1x your bet, which is nothing special. For high pays, there are 3 types of BAR symbols and flaming sevens. Flaming sevens are worth the most, and they pay 2.6x your bet for a full combo. As you can see, basic combos don’t pay a lot, so you need to get the bonus features involved to get a nice win.

For special symbols, there are Pumpkin Wilds and Star Scatters. Pumpkin Wilds can sometimes show up as Multiplier Wilds as well, and they also have excellent pay values.

Your goal is to find 3 Star Scatters on the reels, which will activate the Hit ‘n’ Roll feature, which will then spin the game’s bonus wheel. You can win either the Cashpot prize, a coin win, or free spins with Multiplier Wilds.

Cashpot prizes and possible free spins amounts are always displayed at the top of the playing field, and they increase as you play. The more you play, the more you stand to win once you finally find the required set of Star Scatters, which is sweet.

As for the game’s free spins, you can get them with 2x, 3x, or 5x Multiplier Wilds. You can also collect Bonus Accumulator symbols during them, with each set of 3 netting you 3 additional free spins.

If you don’t want to wait for the game’s juicy bits, you can opt to use the HyperBonus menu and go for either the Cashpot prizes option or the Free Spins prizes option. Those cost 91.6x and 53.16x your bet, respectively.

Review Summary

At the end of the day, Joker Lanterns Hit ‘n’ Roll is a game that can be recommended to players. It’s more of the same, though the Halloween theme adds a fair bit into the mix. It’s nothing innovative, and you won’t enjoy it if you’re already tired of the gameplay formulas, but, if you’re a fan, this is another great slot for you!
