Jeopardy Slots

The original live Jeopardy slots by IGT are now online thanks to their online branch, Wagerworks. The online Jeopardy slot machine has five reels and only nine paylines, but the Jeopardy online slots compensate for their few paylines by allowing players to bet five coins per line for a max bet of 45 coins. Betting denominations range from $.05 to $5 making the most expensive per spin wager at a Jeopardy slots casino an impressive $225.

The Jeopardy online slots offer decent symbol variety and a cohesive color scheme, and the multi-colored Jeopardy symbols cleverly replace the usual bars, double bars and triple bars. Yet the sophisticated Jeopardy bars and flashy animated wilds clash with the dated and cartoony category icons (animals, movies, music, science, sports). Speaking of the wilds, five on any Jeopardy slot machine awards the top jackpot of 25,000 coins. Even better, just one Jeopardy wild will double any other combination (a la Double Jeopardy).

Jeopardy Slots Review

While we're disappointed to report that the Jeopardy slots have no scatters and no free spins, the two-part bonus is pretty nice. Three Jeopardy bonus symbols on an active payline triggers the traditional Jeopardy-style bonus. A game screen with categories and questions loads, and players choose questions/prizes until they hit a Final Jeopardy symbol. On a Jeopardy slot machine, the Final Jeopardy symbol sends you into the second part of the bonus where backing the right contestant can greatly increase your current winnings.

While we're sure the Jeopardy online slots will please high rollers with the max bet of $225, we're also pleased to inform our more cash-strapped readers that even players betting a single credit and line per spin can win the jackpot. Players that are looking for an extra thrill can also enjoy the double or nothing gamble feature which is offered at all the Jeopardy slots casinos.

Virgin Casino is a great place to enjoy the Jeopardy slot machine and many other popular Wagerworks games. We rate the Jeopardy slots a reasonably good 8.5 out of 10.
