Online casinos have taken off like crazy in the last couple of years. As the internet goes from commodity to necessity, many of us turn to it for all our entertainment needs. This leads to all kinds of players trying progressive jackpot slots.
There are dreamers who will not be satisfied until they win the biggest jackpot possible. However, there are also cautious players who do not want to risk too much while hunting jackpots.
Making just one progressive jackpot to appease these two differing groups is impossible. That is why Blueprint Gaming has added three different jackpots instead.
Using this method, the developers was able to attract both types of players. You can hunt two jackpots that are guaranteed to hit before a certain value. While you are there, why not try to get the uncapped jackpot too?
The Jackpot
Jackpot King offers three progressive jackpots. These three jackpots are the Regal Pot, Royal Pot and Jackpot King. Regal and Royal Pot jackpots are capped meaning they have to win before reaching a certain value. Jackpot King is unlimited, allowing it to climb much higher than the other two. The progressive jackpots are global, meaning wagers across all eligible casinos contribute to the increasing cash prizes.
The Royal Pot will always win before it reaches a value of £3,500. The Regal Pot can go up to £35,000 before it hits. Jackpot King is unlimited, meaning it can easily reach million-pound values. What currency you win the jackpot in depends on the operator’s jurisdiction. Jackpot King is attached to existing games. If the title has Jackpot King next to its name, then you can win the progressive jackpots there.
All three progressive jackpots are won through the Jackpot King Deluxe Pot bonus. It is activated by finding five Jackpot King Deluxe overlay symbols, which can happen on any spin. After triggering the special feature, players can collect crown icons to move up the ladder. This eventually helps them unlock the Wheel King section of the bonus.
Each time you complete a spin, you can choose to spin or collect. Spinning spins the reels again and adds additional crown symbols to the win ladder. Collect fifteen crowns to unlock the Wheel King bonus.
In Wheel King, players can win big win multipliers or progressive pot segments. What prize you receive is determined by what you draw on the wheel. Simultaneous progressive jackpot wins cannot occur. After a win, the jackpot is reset to its seed value.
Diamond Mine Megaways
The American Rockies are well known to be rich in valuable gems. After all, the gold rush in the US was based primarily around them. Now, we get to join one talented excavator as he plans to get rich in this Diamond Mine. The visuals are simple and charming, but are not the primary focus. Instead, that honour falls to the Megaways system and the available special features.
We can see a tall, reddish mountain and a beautiful blue sky as part of the background image. The slot is played on a six-reel, four-row board with up to 117,649 ways to win. The RTP for this game is 94.5% plus the additional RTP offered by the progressive jackpots. The biggest possible prize you can win in this release without a progressive jackpot is 10,000x your total stake.
Free Spins
Land four gold sack Scatters to win twelve free spins.
Every extra Scatter on top of those initial four grants five more free spins.
During free spins, players have access to an unlimited win multiplier. It starts at one, and increases with every reaction.
Three or four Scatters that appear during the special feature will award five or ten additional free spins.
Cascading Reels
After every win, icons that were part of a winning combination are removed from the board. Existing symbols take their place, while brand new ones appear from the top.
This allows multiple consecutive wins to occur at the cost of a single spin.
Mystery Icons
Mystery symbols can appear on every spin. When they land, they all transform into the same icon.
Mystery symbols can become any icon except for the gold sack Scatter.
7s Deluxe
Who says old-timey slots cannot benefit from progressive jackpots? 7s Deluxe is as retro as they come, both when it comes to visuals and gameplay. Outside of the progressive jackpot, it does not have any other special features. As such, this makes it the perfect pick for punters that want to chase big wins. If you can handle its high volatility, you may find yourself the next big winner.
The background image depicts a whole lot of orange-pink flames burning all around the reels. The game is played on a three-reel, three-row board with five fixed paylines. The RTP for this title is 94.51% in addition to Jackpot King’s extra RTP. Your top prize, not counting the progressive jackpots, is 1,250x your total stake.
Top Cat Most Wanted
The golden era of hand drawn cartoons is something we will never forget. Hanna-Barbera’s cartoons are something we still enjoy catching from time to time. Its questionably legal cat gang is back again in Top Cat Most Wanted. This time around, players will side with Dibble to capture Top Cat and his gang during special features.
We quite like the background image. It depicts the familiar alley we have seen so many times before. You play this release on a five-reel, three-row board with ten fixed paylines. The RTP for this slot is 93.32% plus the Jackpot King promotional pot RTP. The biggest prize you can win outside of the progressive jackpots is 5000x.
Free Spins
Three, four or five Scatters appearing on the board simultaneously grants ten, fifteen or twenty free spins.
During the bonus, whenever the officer Dibble Wild lands on the board, it collects all wanted cat posters.
The Wild can appear during normal gameplay as well.
It can substitute for all symbols except for Scatters.
Fishin’ Frenzy
Dive deep beneath the clear, blue waves to discover a completely new world. The further down you swim, the more different our world becomes. It is also where the most exotic fish swim around: the perfect prey for a Fishin’ Frenzy. The visuals on offer are somewhat basic. Thankfully, the low variance and fast-paced gameplay keep things interesting while you chase the progressive jackpots.
The background image shows the calm sea on the surface, and the depths of the ocean that is hidden beneath. The game is played on a five-reel, three-row board with ten fixed paylines. The RTP for this release is 93.32%, not counting the added RTP from the progressive jackpots. The best fixed jackpot you can win is only worth 500x your total stake.
Free Spins
Three, four or five Scatters grant ten, fifteen or twenty free spins.
During free spins, the fisherman Wild can catch all blue fish for extra cash prizes.
The larger the fish, the better the payout is.
Wilds can substitute for all icons except for Scatters.
Genie Jackpots Wishmaker
Have you ever tried to outwit a genie? As you might expect, trying to get a wish out of these tricky ghosts is quite the challenge. They will twist your words to their benefit if you are not careful. Fortunately, Blueprint Gaming decided to go easy on us this time around. Genie Jackpots Wishmaker will make our wishes for big wins come true if we can activate its special features.
Not many releases opt for a background image that draws so heavily on Arab culture. It gives this title a rather unique look you rarely see elsewhere. The slot is played on a five-reel, three-row board with twenty fixed paylines. The RTP for this game is 96.06% when combining your standard RTP and the progressive jackpot RTP. The top prize you can win without the three progressive jackpots is 10,000x your total stake.
Wishmaker Modifiers
Seven Wishmaker modifiers are available in this release and can become active on any spin. They are triggered randomly. We have listed all available modifiers below.
- Infectious Monkey Wilds – Wilds will land on the next reel spin, and will then spread to nearby reel positions randomly.
- Genie Wilds – Genie flies from his lamp, turning random positions on the playing field Wild.
- Colossal Genie – Three adjacent reels are combined into a single colossal reel.
- Mystery Wishes – A random symbol is chosen. This icon will then appear for all mystery symbols in view.
- Genie Streak – Winning icons are frozen in place and a re-spin is granted. Any wins that expand the existing combination are also locked in place. Re-spins continue until no more matching symbols appear on the reels.
- Bonus Boost – Extra bonus icons are added to the board. This increases your chances of activating the special feature on that turn.
- Win Spin – Creates a guaranteed big win.
Wheel Bonus
Find three or more bonus symbols anywhere on the playing field to activate the special feature. During the bonus, players will spin a lucky wheel that contains one of six special features. The bonus the wheel lands on will be activated and played.
- Sultan’s Jewels – Pick through chests to win cash prizes. The special feature ends when you find the Collect in one of the chests. Find three keys in the chests to win one of the other bonuses. Finding a genie will open three chests that are guaranteed to not be hiding a collect.
- Magic Carpet – Ride a magic carpet and select lamps to move along the trail. As you travel, you may find genie icons that will magically transport you to random positions in front of you. Reach the end of the trail to enter the Big Money bonus. Reveal a Collect to end the special feature early.
- Lucky Wishes Cash Spin – You get three cash spins. Land a money Scatter on the board to reset the number of spins back to three. Players can only draw money Scatters or blank spaces on the playing field. Money Scatters can grant retriggers, cash boosts and multipliers ranging up to 5x.
- Golden Touch free spins – During the free spins, the genie will fly from the lamp and turn one reel Wild. The genie can fly into the same reel more than once. If that happens, the Wild multiplier increases by one.
- Genie’s Wild Storm free spins – The Genie adds additional Wilds to the reels at the start of each free spin. If a Wild lands on the board, that Wild will be framed. Wild frames stay in place until the final free spin. If a Wild lands on an existing Wild frame, it will improve its win multiplier. Wild frames can reach a maximum multiplier of 5x. On the last spin, all Wild frames will transform into actual Wilds.
- Big Money bonus – You return to a bonus wheel, where you draw bet multipliers to win. Players can choose scrolls to re-spin the wheel. Eventually, a scroll will reveal Collect which ends the special feature.

The Goonies
Classic movies being turned into slots is nothing new. Even so, we did not expect The Goonies to get that treatment. Now, you can join into this adventure comedy flick to find One-Eyed Willy’s treasure for yourself. Do you have what it takes to brave this medium-high variance game and claims its progressive jackpots for yourself?
The background image is a wooden table with the map to the pirate’s treasure on it. The treasure map sits beneath the semi-transparent reels, adding to awesome visuals. This release is played on a five-reel, three-row board with twenty fixed paylines. The RTP for this title is 96.06%, accounting for both the standard RTP and progressive jackpot RTP. The biggest cash prize you can win outside of progressive jackpots is 10,000x your total stake.
One-Eyed Willy’s Riches
Every spin has a chance of activating the One-Eyed Willy’s Riches bonus. This will cause the pirate to swing across the screen and grant one of the following special features. What bonus he grants players is selected randomly.
- Truffle Shuffle Wilds – Additional overlay Wilds are added to the reels.
- Mikey’s Hidden Riches – All reels have a chance to be filled with Wilds.
- Data’s Colossal Symbols – Three adjacent reels are combined into a single colossal reel.
- Mouth’s Lucky Coins – Gold coins are added to the reels. A random icon will then be displayed inside the coin. This increases the odds of winning, but does not guarantee them.
- One-Eyed Willy’s Bonus Boost – Additional bonus symbols are added to the playing field.
- Sloth’s Win Spin – You receive a guaranteed winning spin.
Additionally, you can unlock two modifiers that transform losses into wins. The first one makes a scythe appear to reset the reels into a win. The second causes a cave collapse, which shifts a loss into a win.
One-Eyed Willy’s Bonus Wheel
Land three or more Scatters anywhere in view to get a spin on One-Eyed Willy’s Bonus Wheel. The wheel can grant one of six available special features. All available bonuses and their effects are listed below.

- Skeleton Organ – Click the organ keys to match characters to bet multipliers. An upgrade icon can also appear, increasing the initially assigned multiplier. Collecting three key symbols unlocks the door to an additional feature bonus. Skulls and crossbones make you lose lives. If you lose three lives, the special feature ends.
- Super Sloth free spins – This bonus is played on a different set of reels that feature the Fratelli family. During this bonus, super sloth Wilds turn any Fratelli icons in view into the top symbol. At the end of free spins, players get one extra chance to win additional prizes. Opening the chest can reveal more free spins, One-Eyed Willy’s Treasure bonus or a Collect icon.
- Goonies Go Wild free spins – After the first spin, one of the top reel symbols will turn Wild at the start of every spin. Similar to Super Sloth free spins, you have a chance of getting additional prizes at the end of this bonus. You can unlock One-Eyed Willy’s Treasure bonus, up to five free spins or the Collect icon.
- Inferno free spins – During this bonus, an inferno is present on the reels. It moves across the board from right to left, turning one to three reels Wild. All affected reels have to be adjacent to one another. Inferno free spins also allows players to unlock One-Eyed Willy’s Treasure bonus or win additional free spins.
- One-Eyed Willy’s Treasure bonus – Values spin and stop randomly on a total bet multiplier. This continues until you eventually find a booby trap, which ends the bonus.
Feature Gamble
After activating a special feature in The Goonies, you can choose to gamble and potentially upgrade it. This bonus is available for all wagers except for the One-Eyed Willy’s Treasure bonus.
Biggest Jackpot Wins
Blueprint Slot dominates PokerStars Casino – £1.2 million
Jackpot King caught headlines when it resulted in a fantastic progressive jackpot win over at Pokerstars. A Norwegian player scored a big prize on 13th of February 2018, when he took home a £1.2 million jackpot. The lucky winner chose to remain anonymous. However, he did state he plans to use the funds to take his family on a summer vacation. Ideal choice.
Soaring above the skies – £3.1 million
Blueprint Gaming’s progressive Jackpot King also broke Sky Vegas’ record for largest jackpot win. 44-year old Jay won a massive £3.1 million prize while playing with a £0.20 wager. This is the second time Jackpot King paid out in this casino. The first hit was for £1.6 million. A smaller prize, but certainly nothing to sneeze at either.
Cooking up the jackpot – £4.2 million
Another record was set at Paddy Power Games, where a chef from Northern Ireland won the £4.2 million progressive jackpot. Sean Doyle won that incredible prize while only betting £10 per spin. Despite having just won a life-changing sum, he wisely decided to keep going to work. Mr Doyle said he plans to use the money to help his sister, a single mother living in New Zealand. How thoughtful.
