Crackerjack was a snack, firework, children’s television show and is now a three reel video slot produced by the design gurus at Microgaming. Like the snack and show this slot has a retro feel whilst remaining fresh by including a wild multiplier. The theme draws on the firework with various whizzes and bangs which could result in players winning an impressive $25,000.
Cracker Jack Slot Theme
Colorful explosions and sparks are present throughout the Cracker Jack slot. There are fireworks on the reels, paytable and behind the logo. The latter are exploding with golden coins which appear to be flying out toward the screen.
The refreshing aspect with Vegas style slots is that everything is present on one screen. You can quickly glance at the paytable, operate the buttons and see the reels spinning all on one page. It’s almost as if you’re using a real life machine on the casino floor.
Betting Options and More Functions
You can use one or two coins ranging in value from 0.25 to $5. This means a betting range of 0.25 to $10 is possible. If you are planning to use just a single coin then you must be prepared to accept smaller prizes as marked out in the two column paytable.
Some Microgaming slots include automatic plays but this one is devoid of them. This doesn’t make it at bad slot but we feel it would have been better if auto plays had been included.
CrackerJack Slot Features
Three reel slots often benefit from the odd feature or two but rarely do they pack the punch seen on Crackerjack. One Crackerjack wild graphic will pay two times the winning combination whilst two will award four times the payout when completing a winning combination.
There isn’t a multiplier for three wild graphics, but you won’t be disappointed because if this happens the jackpot will be paid. That means 2,000 coins when using one coin and a whopping 5,000 coins when using two.
Our Take on Crackerjack
The term Crackerjack meant many things over the years and this is one of the most fun uses of it we’ve come across. The slot is easy to use, has a classic feel and even sneaks in a few up to the minute slot features too. The inclusion of a 5,000 coin jackpot really does prove the sky’s the limit for three reel slots.
