How Halloween Jack Works
Halloween Jack is a video slot from NetEnt with 5 reels, 3 rows, and 20 fixed paylines. The game offers a range of features including the Jack’o’lector Feature during Free Spins, as well as Walking Wilds with Re-Spins. Bets can be placed from a minimum of £0.20 up to a maximum of £4 per spin.
- The game is played with 20 fixed bet lines across the 5 reels.
- Players select their wager using adjustable bet levels and coin values.
- The bet level determines the number of coins bet per payline, while the coin value controls the value of each coin.
- The COINS display shows the number of coins available to stake.
- Winning combinations and payouts follow those outlined in the Paytable.
- Only the highest win per payline is awarded. Wins pay from leftmost reel to rightmost reel across a payline.
- Multiple wins on different paylines are summed together.
- Bet line wins in coins are calculated from the Paytable value times the bet level, plus any applicable multipliers. Currency wins are determined by multiplying coin wins by the current coin value.
Core Symbols and Wilds
Wild Symbol Mechanics
- The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except Scatter and Lantern symbols.
- In the main game, Wilds can land on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5.
- During Re-Spins and Free Spins, Wilds can appear on reels 2, 3, and 4.
- Any win involving a Wild benefits from a 3x coin multiplier.
- The Wild substitutes for the best possible winning combination on a payline as per the Paytable.
Re-Spins and Walking Wild Feature
- Whenever a Wild symbol lands, a Re-Spin is triggered.
- For each Re-Spin, the Wild moves one reel to the left.
- Re-Spins continue until there are no Wild symbols left on the reels.
- The Walking Wild feature is available both in the main game and during Free Spins.
- If a Wild appears during Free Spins, Free Spins are temporarily interrupted for the Walking Wild feature, then resume once it completes.
- New Walking Wilds during Re-Spins keep Re-Spins active until all Wilds reach the first reel and no further Wilds are present.
Free Spins Experience
- Collecting 3 or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels during the main game awards 10 Free Spins.
- Landing 3 or more Scatter symbols during Free Spins adds 5 more Free Spins.
- The Lantern symbol, which activates extra features, only appears on reel 5 during Free Spins.
- Free Spins use the same bet level and coin value as the triggering round.
- Both Free Spins and the Walking Wild feature can be triggered simultaneously; Free Spins are completed first if this happens.
- When Free Spins conclude, play returns to the round that activated them.
- Total winnings from Free Spins (including any Re-Spins within Free Spins) are added to winnings from the activating round.
The Jack’o’lector Feature in Free Spins
During Free Spins, Lantern symbols that land on reel 5 collect towards unlocking unique Wild symbol upgrades. The specific features unlocked depend on the number of Lanterns collected:
| Feature | Description |
| Stacked Hell Hound Wild | After collecting 3 Lantern symbols, the next Wild to appear becomes a 2-high Stacked Hell Hound Wild.* |
| Stacked Jack-o'-lantern Wild | With 6 Lanterns collected, the upcoming Wild transforms into a 3-high Stacked Jack-o'-lantern Wild.* |
| Expanding Death Reaper Wild |
|
*Stacked Wilds are Wild symbols that span 2 or 3 reel positions. Depending on the reel positions, they may be partially or fully visible. When a Stacked Wild lands, a Re-Spin is given, with the Stacked Wild moving left for each Re-Spin until it reaches the first reel. During these Re-Spins, Scatters do not appear, so no additional Free Spins are awarded. The collection cap is set at 9 Lantern symbols.
