Jackpota has introduced Jackpota Hunt, a Plinko-style bonus round available on games from the Penguin King studio. Players can opt in while spinning a participating game’s reels by paying an additional 0.20 SC per spin.
The feature carries a progressive jackpot that begins at 1,000 SC and rises until it is won. An Oct. 8 update from Bonus.com also listed Jackpota Hunt among the operator’s October additions and described it as a Penguin King-game bonus with a jackpot starting at that amount.
According to SweepsKings, a triggered jackpot round sends balls through a Plinko-style board, where they fall into prize buckets. A player must accumulate 10 balls in one sector to collect the prize assigned to that sector.
Golden balls have greater weight in that calculation, counting as five regular balls. Collecting a prize bucket grants a new set of 10 balls, creating further chances to win SC prizes within the round.
The board places the buckets containing the main jackpot on its outside edges. Those outer buckets are also described as the most difficult to reach, making the highest prize less accessible than the other bucket awards.
Jackpota’s October promotions also included Fish Tales Max Scatter and 3 Jackpota Mummies, according to Bonus.com. The site’s terms set a minimum player age of 21, and availability varies by state.
