Game Overview
It’s fair to say that my days of eating sweets are over, and to get my sugar fix as a middle-aged man, you’re more likely to find me tucking into a nice piece of cake than sucking on a hard-boiled sweet. That wasn’t all the case, though, and I vividly remember going to the corner shop in my youth and getting a three-pack of jawbreakers for the princely sum of 10p. Those were the days, and I’m not even sure you would get one for that price now, let alone three. Anyway, that little tale leads me on nicely to today’s slot review of Jawbreaker, a 6-reel slot from iSoftbet featuring the scatter pays engine, an RTP of 96%, and a maximum win of 10,000x bet.
As with most candy-themed online slots, Jawbreaker has a tumbling reels mechanic, activating when a winning combo of symbols has been formed. First, all winning symbols are removed from the reels, with new ones that fall from above providing more opportunities to win. Additionally, each reel cascade adds one gumball to the meter, which, when filled, will award 8 free spins. That’s not the only way to trigger the bonus, though, with three or more scatter symbols also granting access to the most lucrative part of the game where a global multiplier is in play, applying all collected multipliers to any wins that are created.
Has your sweet tooth started to itch reading our intro? Then why not give it a scratch free of charge and power up our Jawbreaker demo slot. It’s available to play below.
Jawbreaker Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
It still baffles me somewhat that even though there are dozens of slot games on the market already with the same theme and similar mechanics, providers still insist on creating them. Perhaps it’s like being in the scouts, and you can get an Egyptian slot badge, Fishing slot badge, Greek slot badge; yeah, I think you get the picture. So, putting in for their candy-themed slot badge, iSoftbet has used some more than familiar bonuses and features in their Jawbreaker game, which we’re set to put through its paces right now, starting with the pays section.
Kicking things off at the top of the paytable, we have the Red Wrapped Sweet worth 25x if 12 or more appear on the reels. This is followed by the Purple Swirl at 15x, the Blue Swirl at 12.5x, and the final premium symbol, the Green Swirl paying 10x. The lower value symbols come in the form of the Red and Pink Sweets, both returning 5x, and the Blue, Green, and Orange Sweets, with payouts of 3x, 2x, and 1.5x, respectively, for wins of 12 or more.
Real money players have a good selection of bets to choose from on the Jawbreaker slot, with the standard minimum bet starting from €0.20 a spin, whilst the highest comes in at €20.
Jawbreaker Slot Base Game
Jawbreaker is played over a 6×5 reel formation operating on the scatter pays engine. Wins are awarded if 8 or more matching symbols appear anywhere within the playfield, with each win activating a reel tumble. This tumble/cascade will remove all winning symbols from the reels and drop in new symbols, giving players further opportunities to win.
Jawbreaker Multipliers
Up to three jawbreaker symbols with values of up to 5x can land on any spin. In the base game, these will be added together and then applied to any win that lands on the same spin and series of reel tumbles.
Gumball Meter
Every winning reel tumble will add one sweet to the gumball meter. If six tumbles occur in one spin, then 8 free spins will be awarded.
Sugar Rush Modifiers
Randomly, on any spin, the sugar rush modifier can add between 1 to 6 sweets to the gumball meter
Side Bet
Toggling on the side bet feature will increase the bet by 25% but will give you an increased chance of triggering the main feature.
Jawbreaker Slot Bonus Features
Whilst spinning in the base game, if 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatter symbols appear in view, the bonus round will be triggered, and players will be awarded 10, 12, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively.
Free Spins Feature
During the free spins feature, all multipliers that land will be stored in a global multiplier and applied to any win that is achieved. Furthermore, for every 5th spin a multiplier lands, a re-trigger will be awarded, and 3 extra spins will be added to the current total.
Pros
- Multipliers can also land in the base game.
Cons
- Unoriginal theme and mechanics.
- No bonus buy.
Jawbreaker Slot Review Final Thoughts
Candy-themed online slots have continued to be popualr since the release of Pragmatic Play's Sweet Bonanza, which is what the vast majority of clones are based on, such as Jawbreaker.It doesn't make it a bad game, but it lacks originality, and there are far better slots out there in the sweet niche, with my recommendation being our Sugar Rush 1000 demo if you're looking for something highly volatile to play.
