Jackpot 6000
Close your eyes and you are in Las Vegas! Well, no, don’t close them, then you can’t play this classic traditional-style slot, which, believe me, would not be a good thing!
Jackpot 6000 is another NetEnt slot, this time based on a popular Norwegian slot. NetEnt have gone to a lot of trouble to recreate the authentic retro gaming experience, with old-style buttons and features and satisfying sound effects that make you feel as if you are really hitting the reels. The graphics are old school and you can even see plastic palms, chandeliers and another slot in the background. It is so realistic I could feel the plush casino carpet under my feet – all that was missing was the complimentary drinks! Cocktails anyone?

Jackpot 6000 has no fancy theme or gimmicks. Set up like a real-life slot, its symbols are the tried and tested lemons, bells, cherries, grapes and stars. The joker is the wild symbol, and two or more jokers will certainly put a smile on your face, as they trigger a mystery jackpot prize.
The colour scheme is bright and the layout easy to follow. Sound effects don’t detract from the gameplay, and the spinning reels effect really took me back to the casino floor.
Jackpot 6000 is a three-reel, ten payline slot and you can bet from .10 to 10 coins. It has a pretty high payout percentage of 97.50.
When your symbols come up you can choose to gamble your winnings or collect them. The gamble feature is a simple heads or tails. If you guess right, then you double your profit. Guess wrong and you lose the lot. The decision is yours! A quick note to fellow gamers, I called heads three times and won; this isn’t a tip, I just wanted to show off! What stayed in my head is the insistent funky music as your prepare to call heads or tails, and the delightful cheer when you get it right. This is almost as gratifying as the actual winnings themselves. Almost, but not quite!

Another old-style feature is the chance to ‘transfer’ winnings – this will bank 20 coins of each win for you to gamble with later. I didn’t go for this myself, but I’m sure it may float some boats.
What I can see the alluring attraction of is the Skillstop feature, meaning you can stop the reels yourself by hitting the ‘spin’ button a second time. Was it my imagination, or did I win more every time I did this? Even if I didn’t, I certainly felt I’d really earned the money, and that I was in control, a rare emotion in modern-day gameplay.
All your winnings rack up in the Supermeter at the top of the slot, where your aim is see them hit 6000.
If you get a win with the maximum bet you will trigger the second bonus. This activates all the paylines and you could tumble to that coveted 6000 coin jackpot!
