Progressive jackpot history
Players are looking constantly for a new way to laugh your booty off while taking home a "princely" sum, then you should check out Novomatic's Jester's Crows slot. The game takes you back to medieval times, which has you playing the role of the jester in the King's court. Where things get interesting though is when you consider the Jester's Crown Jackpot, which offers the chance to win a large cash prize if you can make the court laugh hard enough.
The Jester's Crown Jackpot is won in a relatively straightforward manner. The game's top prizes (there's two jackpots attached to this prize) are paid out when players are able to fill every single of the symbols on the reels with the jester. If you can do this, you win the prize, although the payout is tied directly to the amount of money you wager per spin.
It should be noted that progressive jackpots build up with every spin of the reels that don't win the jackpot. A portion of the amount you bet is put toward the jackpot prize pool, which accumulates and grows large, until a player is lucky enough to trigger the jackpot. The prize then pools back down to the seed amount, where it begins to grow again.
The Jester's Crown slot itself is relatively mediocre, but it still stands up as being a good Novomatic slot. I'm a notorious Novo hater, but I can appreciate that they put together a game that isn't bland and sterile. The game's standard features are good enough, and you'll likely be entertained for a short period of time while you work to win a bit of dough.
While the game isn't a comedy of errors like so many other Novomatic games, it does manage to bring some laughs with it's goofy jester, making a game you should try.
