About the Game
Welcome to Jack’s Beanstalk Bonanza, a video slot from Reflex Gaming with payouts for matching symbols anywhere, cascading reels, free spins, a Double the Bet feature, and more.
Jack’s Beanstalk Bonanza is a 6-reel, 5-row video slot. There are 9 regular paying symbols that award a win when 8 or more matching symbols appear anywhere on the reels. At the end of each cascade, all winning symbols are removed, and new symbols fall from above. There’s also a bonus symbol; 4 or more of these symbols in any position trigger the free spins bonus, along with a fixed cash prize awarded upon completion of all cascades.
Buy Bonuses
By clicking the “Buy Bonuses” button, the player has two options: purchase access to standard or super free spins at a cost equal to the selected base bet, with a variable multiplier.
Standard free spins are worth 100x the selected bet. Super free spins are worth 300x the selected bet, with the minimum multiplier for the “Golden Egg” starting at 20x.
A spin with a purchased bonus is guaranteed to end with 4 to 6 bonus symbols appearing in the field of view, awarding the corresponding number of free spins.
There is a maximum bet that can be placed when purchasing bonuses. The maximum bet for “Buy Bonus” may differ from the information above depending on where you play this game.
Max Win
The overall theoretical return to player percentage is 94.0%. The maximum win is 20,000 times the base bet. If, with the free spins feature, the win in Jack’s Beanstalk Bonanza exceeds 20,000 times the base bet, the payout is 20,000 times the base bet, and the feature ends.
Wild Symbol
The Wild symbol is the Magic Bean symbol; it substitutes for all symbols except the Bonus symbol. Magic Bean symbols do not have their own payout. Magic Bean symbols can appear in both the base game and Free Spins.
Giant Symbols
Enlarged versions of paying symbols and the Wild symbol, measuring 2×2 and 3×3, can appear in the reels (except for the Bonus symbol); they count as 4 and 9 standard symbols, respectively. If a winning cascade is triggered, any Giant symbols are transformed into the corresponding number of standard symbols before the paying symbols are removed.
Beanstalk (Base Game)
Each winning cascade ascends the Beanstalk; reaching the top rewards you with the Golden Egg, shown at the top. The Beanstalk has four levels to reach the top; at the start of each game, the path is reset, and the climb begins again at the base level.
When the cascades on the reels are complete, if the top of the Beanstalk is reached, a Golden Egg is awarded. It will open and award either a multiplier applied to the total win from the cascades or add enough Bonus symbols to the reels to trigger the bonus; in this case, 1 to 4 Bonus symbols are added. If there are already enough Bonus symbols on the reels to trigger the bonus, one additional Bonus symbol is awarded.
The Golden Egg can award any of the following multipliers: 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 8x, 10x, 12x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x and 1,000x.
Free Spins
Locating 4 or more bonus symbols in the base game triggers free spins with a fixed cash prize. 4 bonus symbols award 10 free spins, plus 2 additional free spins for each additional symbol that triggers the bonus.
During free spins, landing 3 bonus symbols awards 5 additional free spins, plus 5 additional free spins for each symbol beyond 3.
During free spins, Golden Egg symbols may appear on the reels; at the end of a winning spin, the multipliers of all Golden Eggs are summed up, multiplying the total win for that spin.
Each Golden Egg symbol can display any of the following multipliers: 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 8x, 10x, 12x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, and 1000x.
Free spins are played with the same bet as in the base game that triggered them. Wins from the free spins feature are added to the total winnings from the round that triggered them.
Golden Beanstalk (Free Spins)
During the Free Spins bonus, a golden version of the Beanstalk is active; a Golden Egg is shown at the top with a minimum multiplier, which can be awarded by any Eggs landing on the reels.
The Golden Egg can display any of the following minimum multipliers: 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, and 100x.
Each winning cascade moves up the Beanstalk, and each time it reaches the top, the minimum multiplier on the Egg increases. This happens immediately, after which the path resets to the base level; you can climb the Beanstalk multiple times in a single spin. If the minimum multiplier has increased, it will be applied to any Golden Egg symbols on the reels whose values are lower than this after any cascades.
Gold Bet
The player can increase their bet by 1.25x; this increases the chance of reaching the top of the Beanstalk, increases the likelihood of egg multipliers, and increases the chance of triggering free spins.
Payouts in the paytable are not increased when the Gold Bet is enabled.
Double Gamble Bet
A gamble bet can be offered for any win in the base game that doesn’t trigger free spins. This is enabled by the gamble bet button, which can be set to OFF, ON, or 5X OR MORE. When set to ON, any win in the base game will trigger a gamble bet. When set to 5X OR MORE, any win in the base game worth at least 5x the base bet will trigger a gamble bet. When set to OFF, gamble bets will not be offered.
The gamble bet offers two options. On the left gamble wheel, the current prize can be multiplied by 1.5x, 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x; cash gamble bets can be rounded up to the nearest payout amount. On the right gamble wheel, the current prize can be wagered on 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25 free spins. You can change the value you’re betting on using the plus and minus buttons on the sides; your winning odds are displayed on the gamble wheel. Possible gamble bet levels for each option are also displayed on the beanstalk.
After selecting a gamble bet, both wheels will begin to spin. If the wheel lands on a green segment, the bet wins, and the current prize is updated to the value you were betting on. If the wheel lands on a red segment, the bet is lost, and the gamble game ends with no prize.
The gamble bet continues until the current prize is claimed, the gamble bet is lost, or the maximum prize of 5,000x the base bet is reached on the money gamble wheel. The free spins gamble wheel will be disabled once the highest free spins entry level is exceeded.
