Striking Joker slot review
A magician doesn't need a big stage: a table, a deck and one drawn card will do. In GameArt's Striking Joker, a harlequin show starring the Joker and the Jester Girl, the grid is tiny, and the main act starts with a card. The big idea: a compact grid with a bonus worth up to x2,500 tucked behind it.
The act in numbers: 3x3, 5 paylines, RTP 96.20%, medium volatility. Free spins can pay up to x2,500 your bet, and the Card Reveal Bonus offers up to 25 free spins and a multiplier of up to x20.
What tricks does the base game pull?
The Joker is the wild and substitutes for all symbols; three Jokers on a line bring the biggest win. In the base game, there are several ways to trigger a respin, each giving you an extra shot at a win.
Which card will the magician draw?
The headline trick is the Card Reveal Bonus.
🃏 The card trick
- The Card Reveal Bonus can award up to 25 free spins and a win multiplier of up to x20.
- During free spins, the Jester Girl appears as an expanding wild.
- Free spin wins can reach x2,500 your bet.
There's also a Buy Bonus (no price listed) and a Gamble that lets you risk a win up to five times.
