Welcome back to the 1920s as you sail away in a luxury cruise ship, spending money, playing casino, and hopefully become a winner in this Jackpot Express slot by Yggdrasil Gaming.
There’s something about this era in time that makes everyone imagine decadent people doing decadent things; smoking cigarettes, drinking wine, sailing away on the high seas and playing casino.
It makes it a perfect slot theme in many ways; just think of the Deco Diamonds Deluxe slot or even Yggdrasil’s own Orient Express slot game.
So this works. You have 5 reels and 20 paylines with 4 high paying character symbols, and four low paying poker chip characters. You’ve got the Caribbean in the background, but it’s the cruise and the casino games that take centre stage.
What you are looking for here is 3 bonus symbols. Because that’s when you will randomly get one of four features:
The first is your aim. Very much like in the Mega Moolah mobile slot, you spin a wheel of fortune and hope to hit one of three jackpots which can hit into the hundreds of thousands depending on which casino online you choose to play.
However, the free spins do add a little zing to your spins, as you never quite know which of the features you are going to get.
The casino games themselves are automated, but it’s a nice animated touch that makes it a little more fun and more interesting.
We weren’t sure where to put this Jackpot Express slot review. We had fun, the jackpots seed at a decent level, and the bonus feature trigger frequently.
The reason it loses a star is that the base game is a little uninteresting, probably not helped by a fairly ‘meh’ paytable. That’s because you need the multipliers and sticky wilds from the bonus games to make any of this interesting.
And, to be honest, this Jackpot Express slot isn’t about getting you big wins in the base game, or even in the free spins. It’s about letting you captain this ship and win a jackpot.
If that’s why you love playing video slots on mobile, then you’ll find plenty of things to love in this decadent 1920s boat.

Wild: The 'Wild symbol is the wild and substitutes for all regular symbols except the bonus and scatters symbols of this Jackpot Express slot.
Scatters and Free Spins: Land 3 bonus symbols in the free spins or the jackpot game will trigger this bonus. You'll then get to play 10 free spins and one of the random three bonus games will begin:
Jackpot Game: Landing 3 Bonus symbol award you either the free spins or the jackpot game. If you get the jackpot game, you get to spin a wheel of fortune with 3 levels.
You can move up the Jackpot Express levels by hitting the arrow symbols. On each level you can win a progressively bigger jackpot:
But you can also get 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000 coins, or 100, 200, 500 coins with a re-spin of the reels, the arrow or the jackpot.
You have to accept that this Jackpot Express slot is all about lasting long enough to hit any one of the three jackpots progressively growing with each of your spins.
The wins here won't be huge, at best this is a low variance slot in the base game giving you quick easy win, with a big volatile jackpot that will hit every other month or so.
We like the variety of bonus games you can trigger, as it's always fun to play casino games and slots at the same time.
We can't give this Yggdrasil slot review more than 3 stars because the base game paytable just doesn't have enough exciting spins, but you can't ignore the gilded jackpot on this cruise either, which will appeal to anyone who loves progressive jackpot slots.
