Everybody's Jackpot

Everybody's Jackpot is an 8 line progressive slot found at all Playtech casinos. It is like no other progressive slot we have seen before in the fact that the jackpot is never paid out to just one player. Instead it is split between all qualifying players which means you can win every time the jackpot is won.

The game comes in four coin sizes ranging between 0.05 and 1.00 with an 8 coin maximum bet per spin. Unlike most progressives you do not have to play max bet in order to win the jackpot although we do recommend playing all lines so that you don't miss out on any wins. Bets with all lines range from 0.40 to 8.00 per spin.

Before we look at the pays on the reels we are going to take a look at how the jackpot works. Instead of lining up specific symbols to win the progressive can be triggered randomly at the end of any spin. If you are lucky enough to hit the progressive you instantly win 70% of the jackpot that has a base level of $75,000.

So were does the other 30% of the jackpot go? This is where the community jackpot feature comes into play. The next 15% of the jackpot is split equally between all qualifying players who have made at least 65.50 in bets on the game in the last 24 hours. The next 15% is then split proportionately between the qualifying players based on the amount of bets placed in the last 24 hours.

What this means is that you can win part of the progressive when you're not even playing! It's certainly a unique twist on progressive jackpot slots and is an idea that would only really ever work online. We like that fact that Playtech have gone outside the box so to speak and it's always great to see something a little different.

On to the game play. Everybody's Jackpot has 8 pay lines and a total of 19 different winning combinations on the reel. The game has a bit of a game show feel with symbols such as Gold Bars, Cash, Watches and Jewelry on the reels. Any win on either of the diagonal pay lines (Lines 4 and 5) is tripled which is a nice touch.

Top paying line win is 250 coins for three of the Men with the second highest line win coming in at 150 coins for three Ladies. From there the three of a kind wins range from 100 to 4 coins. There are only two symbols that have pays for less than three which are the Ladies and the scattered Everybody's Jackpot logos.

Speaking of the scatters, get three or more and you win 12 free spins with the chance of getting a wild on the middle reel. The scatters can also offer some nice pays with 12 coming in at 200X your total bet or 1,600 coins. The free spins can be re-triggered an unlimited amount of times which is always good to see.

Overall, Everybody's Jackpot is a refreshing twist on the progressive slot theme. The fact that you can win when you're not even playing is quite a positive although you do of course have to qualify every 24 hours to cash in on the win. This makes Everybody's Jackpot a game that should reward loyal players over the long term.
