Golden Joker 100 Hold&Win Slot Review

The number 100 has become the poster child for perfection, and this triple-digit number is now deeply ingrained in many cultures. 💯

According to the all-knowing interwebs, American educator William Farish was an influential figure in bringing 100 to the pinnacle of fame and glory. 👨‍🏫

The story goes that he proposed a grading system with a scale ranging from 0 to 100. The scale allowed for easy interpretation and calculation, so it was quickly accepted and integrated by people with bigger brains than me. 🧠

So, that’s the story of 100. Who said gambling couldn’t expand your intellectual horizons!

This is Golden Joker 100 Hold&Win slot from 1Spin4Win. 🎰

Gameplay

We all know what we’re getting into with this game, so I won’t waste time discussing the design or theme. It’s a 5x4-reel fruit slot and that’s all we need to know.

I must point out that Golden Joker 100 Hold&Win slot is exclusive to BitStarz players, so you’ll get to play it before peeps on other casinos. Oh yeah! 🤘

I’m not a fan of the mobile experience in portrait mode, as the paytable has been shoehorned in above the grid and makes it messy, but landscape mode is on point and looks the business.

Let’s whizz through the stats so we can get to the Hold&Win feature – that’s what you’re here for, right?

  • PaylinesPaylines are preset lines that run across the reels, and when you land matching symbols on them, that will result in a payout. The more paylines, the more ways you can win, but also the higher your bet per spin.: 100 (as the title suggests)
  • RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

    RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate.
    : 97.20%
  • Max Multiplier: 1,400x
  • Max Win: $70,000
  • Volatility RateSlot games can have low, medium, high, or extremely high volatility rates (or a combination thereof).

    The less volatile the game, the more often it should pay out, but the lower the amount, the less the payout, as this is in keeping with the risk you’re taking. Volatility rate should be considered in conjunction with a game’s RTP.

The joker Wild replaces all symbols other than Coins.

Features

HOLD&WIN FEATURE:

Entry to the main feature comes when you land 3 or more Coins in the base game, and you’ll get 3 re-spins to start. Landing additional Coins resets the spin counter to 3 and all triggering and newly-landed Coins will stick to their spot on the grid.

You’ll only see Coins with values in red and GJ-branded Coins now. The latter are essentially blank tiles that shatter upon landing and could reveal a Coin with a value, or sweet bugger all.

The Hold&Win feature ends when you run out of re-spins or you’ve managed to fill every spot on the reels with Coins. You’ll have clinched the Mega Jackpot worth 1,000x in the latter case. Landing a Mini Jackpot Coin means winning that respective Jackpot prize: 100x.

Performance

Performance on Golden Joker 100 Hold&Win slot was stellar. I tested this bad boy on my phone, tablet, and laptop and swapped between browsers. No problemo.

Maximum Win

Aaaaand right here is where I have a problem. Offering a $70,000 payout on a highly volatile game doesn’t cut it for me. No siree. The max multiplier is also meager, at 1,400x, and betting ranges from $0.20 to $50.

Conclusion

I’ll tell you why I enjoyed playing Golden Joker 100 Hold&Win slot. It’s because the Hold&Win round triggered often enough that I wasn’t dying of boredom. P.S.: Higher bets trigger it more frequently.

Look, there’s only this one feature so inevitably, things will get tedious. But the game looks stunning in landscape mode on a phone, so this game is an excellent option for playing wherever the hell you find yourself.

BUT… on the flip side is that top payout vs. volatility rate mismatch that’s become the bane of my existence lately. It pisses me off, but my caveat is always the same: it might not bother you if you’re after a bit of fun and haven’t got your sights set on the top prize.
