Jack and the Beanstalk is a video slot developed by NetEnt, based on the classic English fairy tale. Released in 2011, the game features a 5-reel, 3-row layout with 20 fixed paylines. The slot is set against a backdrop of Jack's farmhouse and countryside, with symbols including playing card values, watering cans, axes, goats, giants, and Jack himself.
The game's main features include the Walking Wild and Treasure Collection. The Walking Wild appears randomly on the reels, triggering respins as it moves left across the screen. All wins with a wild symbol are tripled. During the Free Spins bonus, activated by landing three or more scatter symbols, players can collect key symbols to unlock special features:
- Three keys activate 2 Stacked Money Bags wilds
- Six keys activate 3 Stacked Golden Hens wilds
- Nine keys activate Expanding Golden Harps wilds
These features significantly enhance the potential for big wins, with a maximum payout of 3,000 times the bet. The game has a medium to high volatility and an RTP of 96.28%.
In 2023, NetEnt released a remastered version of the slot, featuring enhanced graphics and the addition of a Bonus Buy feature. This allows players to directly access the Free Spins round for a cost of 45 times their bet.
