This is a classic slot with a modern twist. Trigger the Wild in the Box feature for big wins then choose whether to gamble your prize to potentially x4 multiply your win

Stakelogic, the developer of in-demand online casino content, is taking players on a trip down the nostalgia road with the latest classic slot to leave its production line, 3 Jokers. But this being a Stakelogic slot, not all is as it seems…

3 Jokers is set against the backdrop of a majestic theatre, with beautiful purple and gold curtains framing the stage for the main game, which takes a 5×3-reel format with ten active paylines.

This is a slot where all the action can be found in the base game with a choice of four RTPs available – 96%, 94%, 90% and 88%. Classic symbols drop onto the reels, from Royals to Card Jokers, but each has been given a modern look and feel.

The modern style of 3 Jokers has been carried over into the gameplay. While this may look like a classic slot, the Stakelogic team has built plenty of anticipation into each spin with a selection of bonus features that can be triggered at any time.

This includes the Wild in the Box bonus that can land on any spin at random and upgrades all Jokers on the screen to Joker Wilds. Each Joker Wild then Expands to the left-most position on the reel.

If that wasn’t enough to get pulses racing, the Joker’s Mega Doubler feature offers the potential to turn any win into a big or mega win. But be warned, it is not for the faint-hearted as it takes a double-or-nothing format. This is how it works…

When a win occurs, players are given the chance to gamble their prize. If they chose to gamble, a new screen appears with a blind card and the option to either gamble on the card colour (red or black) or the card suit (Spades, Hearts, Diamonds or Clubs).

Once the player has chosen, the card is revealed. If they have guessed to correct colour, their win is doubled. If they opted to guess the suit and get it right, their win is Multiplied x4. Of course, if they guess wrong, they forfeit their prize.

Olga Bajela, CCO at Stakelogic, said: “3 Jokers takes the foundation of a classic slot and modernises it with striking visuals and compelling gameplay that lets players really determine their appetite for risk v reward.

Slots do not have to be packed full of explosive bonuses to get players on the edge of their seats with each spin, and 3 Jokers is proof of this. It delivers thrills and excitement from the base game, with a range of RTPs available to operators.”
