Jammin’ Jars 2

Every now and then, a pokies game comes along that makes people sit up and take a closer look. With countless games being released every year, it’s hard to stand out, yet Push Gaming has achieved this with Jammin’ Jars, a most-played title across the world’s reputable online casinos, including Wildz. They’ve ventured where only the bravest developers go: taking a brilliant idea and building onto it to create a sequel game in Jammin’ Jars 2, a fruity reimagining of their modern classic.

Three years may have passed between the two releases, yet the first remains a mainstay at most casinos and the latest offering is set to join it. Jammin’ Jars 2 keeps all the best parts of the first one while adding even more fun and gameplay. You can expect a high-octane disco-themed party that never ends, a colourful pokies game that unfolds across an 8x8 grid loaded with bright colours and brimming over with potential.

Discover what to look out for in this scorching sequel with Wildz Casino.

Design

There’s enough of the first game in the second for it to be recognisable to online pokies enthusiasts who will no doubt have encountered the original when exploring their preferred online casino. Jammin’ Jars 2 amps up the tropical nightclub feel by adding even more energy to the dancefloor of this pokies discotheque.

You’ll find yourself in a summery club festooned with neon lights and fringed with palm trees, the perfect place to set the stage for some entertaining fun, if you can beat the heat while the beats go on.

Meet Giga Jar DJ, host to this game, standing to the left of the reels in sunglasses. He’s there to keep the music pumping and to help you access the heights of your nightclub experience, especially if you can fill his gold disc meter. A party tune provides the appropriate soundtrack to complete this stunning audio-visual experience.

Gameplay

The cluster pays mechanic worked brilliantly in the first iteration of the game and Push Gaming has brought it back as the main form of gameplay. You’ll need to put together groups of 5 identical symbols (or more), touching each other anywhere on the reels, whether horizontally or vertically to secure a win.

The symbols are fun and fruity berries, pineapples, melons and pomegranates across the reels, along with the rainbow-coloured Wild Jar symbol. When it forms part of a win, this Wild takes up a new position for the next spin, while bringing a multiplier that begins at 1 into play - rising with each consecutive win.

Cascades work with the clusters, kicking in afterevery win. The winning combinations disappear from view and new symbols drop into the spaces they leave behind, potentially creating more winning combinations. Coins may appear randomly in blue framed cells, equipped with multiplier values worth up to 1,000x. If you manage to land 5 of these together, each turns purple before paying out their displayed values for some splendid prizes!

Fruit Blast

The Fruit Blast feature can arrive following a cascade; when this is activated, the Giga Jar DJ take centre stage to fire out shots of giant fruits. These fruits then all gather to form clusters of the same symbol, creating winning combinations.

Jammin’ Jars 2 Free Spins

One of the key reasons for the success of the original game was the engaging Free Spins round, activated by landing 3 or more Wild jars during a single spin, and it’s back! Wilds that triggered the round hang around for the duration of the feature, leaping across the reels on each spin. If used in a win, they apply a multiplier incrementing at 1+ each time, with this adding up to some lucrative wins. There’s more, too:

Push Gaming introduces gold vinyl symbols in Jammin’ Jars 2, leaving pay symbols in their wake to get stored up by the Giga Jar DJ. If you can climb through 5 different levels to achieve a more favourable RTP rating on each rung you score more returns on your bets on average.

• Level 1: average 96.10% RTP. 20 vinyl symbols unlocks Level 2.
• Level 2: average 96.20% RTP. 25 vinyl symbols unlocks Level 3.
• Level 3: average 96.30% RTP. 30 vinyl symbols unlocks Level 4.
• Level 4: average 96.40% RTP. 35 vinyl symbols unlocks Level 5.

Reach the top at Level 5 and the Giga Jar Feature clears the entire grid of symbols, before throwing on 3 or 4 Wilds. What happens next is the Giga Jar will land in 2x2, 3x3 or 4x4 form, while also granting 8 Giga Spins. Giga Spins retain all instant prize blocks throughout the bonus, further enhancing your win prospects. As you can see, there are plenty of chances to increase your bankroll, with a bit of luck.

Volatility

With all this action going on, it’s easy to see why Jammin’ Jars 2 comes with a high volatility rating. That means that if you’re holding out to see the feature rounds, you may need some patience and a bankroll to match, as there may be win-free rounds. When the wins do come, they are likely to be higher, though. There’s the increased maximum win in this version which also increases the fun: a top prize of 50,000x your stake, one of the highest online pokies bounties available.

Jammin’ Jars 2 on Mobile

Push Gaming has ensured that Jammin’ Jars 2 can be enjoyed on a desktop PC as well as a mobile device such as a smart phone or tablet without compromising on any of the gameplay. You can play at home or when you are out and about, it’s up to you.

The Verdict

As stated, the first in this series is an incredibly popular title, so it’s almost a given that the sequel will attain top-level status an all-time great among pokies. The added features and benefits in Jammin’ Jars 2 make it an attractive prospect to anyone who has loved playing the first game for its cluster pays and cascading reels action. The gameplay can rapidly accelerate with mounting wins, especially when the Free Spins and Giga Spins kick into gear. While it is essential to watch your bankroll in this high volatility pokie, the possibility of accessing a maximum win of 50,000x your stake is undeniably appealing. Well done to Push Gaming for adding on to a splendid game with a worthy sequel.
