Progressive jackpot history
When it comes to my least favorite video slot developer, Novomatic is right up there. The company has put out several games that all look and play similarly. In fact, the games all have almost identical symbols, which leads to the titles blending together. The Blazing Riches slot is just like these other games, but thankfully it brings us the Blazing Riches Jackpot, which gives players the chance to win a large cash prize.
The Blazing Riches Jackpot is simplistic in the way the rules play out for winning the prize. The game's top prize is won when players are able to line up 15 of the joker jackpot symbols across the reels. That's all there is to it. With that being said, winning the jackpot isn't easy, and you shouldn't expect to win it, as your odds are very low. Still, the thrill of winning a big jackpot is always enticing, and will be a draw for many punters.
For those unaware of how progressive jackpots work, they are built up on every spin of the reels that doesn't net the jackpot, as a portion of the amount wagered goes into the pool that eventually pays out when the prize is hit. In this game, the win can be set off on a single spin of the reels, and doesn't involve anything extra to be triggered.
The progressive jackpot is the only thing that makes Blazing Riches worth playing in my opinion. The game is sterile, lacks any compelling features, and could easily be mistaken for any number of Novomatic slots on offer. Unless you really want to test your luck with the jackpot, you're probably better off looking elsewhere in terms of playing an online slot machine.
