genie jackpots big spin frenzy slot theme, stakes, pays & symbols

The Genie (or Jinn) is an excellent fit for a character to spear in a slot machine! These supernatural creatures first appear in pre-Islamic Arabian and later Islamic mythology and theology and are well known for springing up – sometimes at the rub of a lamp – and granting gifts of cash or wishes. Disney’s Aladdin is one of the most well-known stories to involve a genie, but that hasn’t made its way onto the online slots market just yet, as far as I am aware. I guess the natural thing to discuss here would be the earlier Genie Jackpots games, which started with a 20 payline game simply titled “Genie Jackpots” released by Blueprint during their earliest years as part of the online casino industry. The game was reasonably popular, but as Blueprint was not a major player then, it probably did not have as big of an impact as the later Megaways update to the game.

How’s that paytable looking then, Mr Genie? Will you grant my wishes by putting some awesome wins on there? He just might, you know, as the payout for five golden genie symbols is a tidy 1,000x your bet, whilst his turban is enough to get you 500x if you hit five-of-a-kind! A pair of crossed swords will pay you 100x for all five, whilst the bag of gemstones and book of wishes each pay 50x for a completed pay line. After this, you have eight red-coloured symbols with varying pictures of chests or bags of gold, which are the ones that will award cash prizes when collected by the genie.

The demo slot allows you to bet between €0.10 and €10.00 per spin, although I suspect that the real money version of the game may allow you to bet a little bit more than this. If not, this range will still be plenty for the overwhelming majority of players.

genie jackpots big spin frenzy slot base game

The base game doesn’t have too much to report on in this new iteration of Genie Jackpots – it’s a 5x3 playfield with ten fixed paylines and a payout for hitting three or matching symbols from left-to-right, pretty much exactly like 95%+ of other online slots. Things begin to get interesting in this game during the bonus round, so we’ll waste no time and get onto that section of the review.

genie jackpots big spin frenzy slot bonus features

To win yourself a bonus round, you need to hit three or more of the scatter bonus symbols anywhere on the reels. Three will award ten free spins, whilst four grants fifteen spins and all five will win you the maximum of 20 free spins.

Once you arrive at the free spins feature, you finally have a chance to take advantage of all those red gold symbols that appear during the base game! I find it quite frustrating – and surprising – that you cannot win the cash prizes written on them even if you hit a full pay line of five-of-a-kind, but alas, that is how things work in this slot, unfortunately.

On the plus side, any time you hit a genie symbol during the free spins, he will do you a favour by collecting up all of the cash prizes written on any red symbols that are on the screen at the time, which can result in some reasonably chunky reel hits before we even get to the biggies – the upgrades:
