Jewel in the Crown Slot

Not to be confused with the hit 1980s TV series about the last days of the Indian Raj, Jewel in The Crown is a gemstone themed slot game from Barcrest. Played using a 5 reel, 10+3 payline game engine, it comes with a free spins feature with Mega Stacked Wilds. Play in Big Bet Mode and play with Win All Ways Adjacent active. Stakes range from 10p right up to £500 per spin. 



Jewel in The Crown has a classic look, albeit 1 with a shiny gemstone sheen - joining the lower value playing cards are emerald, ruby and diamond symbols as well as a wild that replaces everything apart from the scatter.

That scatter is the crown - when it hits on reels 2, 3 and 4, you'll trigger the Free Spins feature and with it, 10 free spins. Look out too for the special blue crown - whichever symbol is situated here will become an extra wild. You'll also see a red crown - the symbol that is in here will become a special stacked symbol throughout the free spins.

If the same symbol is in both the red and the blue crowns, it will turn into a Mega Stacked Wild symbol. Land a further 1, 2 or 3 crowns during the feature and you'll add 1, 3 or 8 free spins to your total. There are more extras on offer if you increase the size of your bets - play at £2 per spin or more and you'll activate the All Wins Pay Adjacent option which offers extra chances to create winning combinations.

There are also Big Bet feature which are a set of 5 linked spins using a 13 payline game engine. In the £20 Big Bet, the Crowning Glory trail bonus become active. Each crown that lands is added to the trail. Land 5 throughout the Big Bet spins and you'll receive 1 free spin with the trail held. 6 crowns in total and you'll get 8 free spins. Those 8 free spins also on offer if you land 3 crowns on the same spin. The trail is then reset if that happens.

The £30 Big Bet offers all the extras that the £20 Big Bet does as well as adding stacked jewel symbols to the reels. Opt for the £50 Big Bet and you'll get for 8 free spins for collecting 5 crowns and 16 if you manage to land 6. Once again, 8 free spins are awarded immediately if you land 3 crowns on the same spin. Stacked jewel symbols are also added to the reels.

Like most Big Bet games, the RTP rate improves the more you play - at under £2 per spin it's 94%. Above £2 per spin and it goes up to 96%. Play in Big Bet Mode and the RTP improves to 98%.

Jewel in The Crown is fairly simple fare both in the way it looks and its gameplay - the real thrills come during the feature where the added wilds and stacked symbols can quickly have an impact. Get lucky here and Jewel in the Crown could prove to be a gem of a game. If you like gems and precious stones, you can’t go wrong with Net Entertainment’s Starburst.
