Jacob’s Biks Slots
If you are into random and spontaneous things, you’re going to love Jacob’s Biks software by Spigo. If there was a common design for this online slot, we could not find it. This free Jacob’s Biks slot is very unique. We find a very random selection of symbols including the addition of some very standard slot symbols such as fruit.
One thing that stands out about this game when compared to other slot games is the number of bonuses that we can find! This was very impressive and we were truly amazed. This is a fun game that kept us wanted to play again and again. In this review, we will go into detail to discuss the different symbols and the different bonuses.
Let’s Have a Word About Convenience
The game is very intuitive to understand and this is something we are sure that every type of player would appreciate. In case of any doubt, we can find the Instructions to understand the rules of the game by selecting the menu button and then choosing Instructions. Here we find pictures of the gameplay but no explanation. This was a bit disappointing as we did expect some text to explain each part and the payouts for the win lines.
The min bet per payline is 0.01 and the max bet in total is 17.80. The player can choose anywhere from 1 line to 178 lines. The line bet for the lines is anywhere from 0.01 to 0.10. We found it a bit frustrating that to go from a value of 1 line to a value of 178 lines we needed to manually click on the up button 177 times. This was not very convenient for the player.
Interesting Symbols
In this 5-reel game, this free Jacob’s Biks slot has, in our opinion, very random symbols. We have some of the very standard fruit symbols which are common to many slot games. We also find the JADAK symbol. We found a male’s face as a wild symbol, a smoking cigar as a scatter symbol, magic pills, beer and a dog as bonus symbols. A bit random, wouldn’t you agree?
Speed of Light?
Well, not exactly. We found this slot’s gameplay to be extremely slow. We were discouraged to pick a high number of lines because when the player experienced winnings, the game would show the player’s win lines and these took a very, very long time. Obviously with a large number of lines, the probability of winning with a higher number of paylines is increased. It’s pretty clear that this game is not the fastest we have ever encountered and this did frustrate us quite a bit.
Bonus Games Equal Extra Fun!
We loved the addition of extra games in this game. There were several extra bonus games hidden in this game. One of the games was a simple match game where the player must reveal cards laid out on the screen. The player receives bonus stamps when obtaining 3 or more identical bonus symbols on screen. In the case of the dog bonus symbol, two identical symbols are enough to get a dog stamp. When the player receives 5 or more identical stamps, the player gets a free bonus game!
Special Symbols
The wild symbol, which is a symbol of a man, takes place of any other symbol on screen except the scatter symbol. In the case of the scatter symbol, landing three or more scatter symbols on screen (even if they are not on a paylines), the player will receive 15 free spins. If the player wins any bonus games during the free spins, the bonus games are given to the player at the end of the free spins.
Does This Game Remind You of Anything?
Another 5x4 reel slot game is Fortune Jump by Playtech. In Fortune Jump we found that the RTP was higher (96.11%), compared to Jacob’s Biks’ 92.00%. Scatter symbols in Jacob’s Biks give the player a total of 15 free spins. That’s pretty impressive. In Fortune Jump, landing three or more scatter symbols gives the player a bonus game! In both games, we found bonus games… and we love bonus games so we this won us over in both games!
We believe that the graphic design of Jacobs Bik’s was more fun, and we were only a bit disappointed by the lack in background music. We did not enjoy the background music found in Fortune Jump. What we did prefer, however, was the speed that Fortune Jump had to inform the player of his/her wins. Jacob’s Biks was too slow so we always chose a small number of paylines.
What Kind of Player Are You?
If you are someone who usually plays with a small number of paylines, loves fun graphics and extra bonus games, we believe that you will enjoy Jacob’s Biks by Spigo. It did bore us when we chose a higher number of paylines but the bonus games were so much fun we just kept on playing with only 1 payline. It may be important to note that there is no download needed and you can play for free or play for real money.
