Wild Jack 81 Slot Review – Demo, RTP & Features

Wild Jack 81 by Wazdan Gaming is a 4×3 slot with a cowboy theme and (almost) classic gameplay.

The game sees the return of the bull-baiting cowboy hero of Mega Jack and also bears a strong resemblance to this game in terms of graphics as well. But the gameplay has been updated with a few clever twists, a signature of the studio. And you can read about them below, but first, let’s take a look at the overall game.

The 4×3 grid is crossed by 7 paylines, all clearly marked on the sides of the outer reels. Players need to land matching symbols on all four positions on these paylines for a win. The betting range is standard, starting at 0.10 and going up to 100.00 per spin. RTP is a reasonable 96.73%, and the game has a medium volatility rating.

Fans of the studio will instantly recognise the graphics as the work of the Wazdan art team. The grid is set in a dusty corral where the Red Bull has been kicking it up, and the perimeter fence and parched desert are just visible in the background. The symbols are a mix of classic slot icons with a bit of the Wild West thrown in for good measure.

The paytable starts with a raspberry and a bunch of grapes, awarding 0.20x the bet for a full payline. Then we have a bell and watermelon at 0.40x the bet.

After that there’s a sheriff’s star with the game logo, which is a bit confusing because although it has the word WILD across it in big letters, it’s just a regular symbol, paying 1.60x the bet for combos. This is followed by a lucky 7 worth 2x the bet, and a BAR printed on a plank of wood and paying 2.40x.

Payouts jump considerably for the next two symbols, which are the Red Bull worth 12x the bet, and Wild Jack, who pays 24x the bet when he appears in all four positions on a payline.

And just so there is no confusion here, Wild Jack is an actual wild, standing in for other symbols to help form wins as well as giving his own payouts. And as the name of the game suggests, he also does a bit more, which you can read about below.

Game Features

Wazdan is obviously a big fan of the classic slot format, and the studio has produced numerous games which both look and play like old-time mechanical slots.

For Wild Jack 81, the design team has stuck closely to this formula but mixed things up a bit for players looking for some action beyond simply spinning the reels and hoping for a win.

Wild Jack is the key to triggering this extra potential. As well as replacing regular symbols and awarding the top prize in the game, he also boosts the number of win lines from a modest 7 to a much more exciting 81!

The game comes equipped with the standard Wazdan gamble feature, which gives players the chance to boost theirwinnings by 2x simply by guessing the colour of the last card to land from the deck.

A successful guess gives the player the choice of collecting the increased winnings or risking them again, up to 7 times in a row.
