Theme and Graphics
The fruit theme returns in the second part of the slot machine Jammin Jars 2. Unlike its predecessor, this game features both fruit symbols and coin symbols. Fruit symbols include pineapples, cherries, melons, lemons and berries. The coin symbols represent different numbers, and forming clusters of five of these symbols gives you the chance to win cash prizes. However, these symbols aren’t the only way to win. The exterior of the slot is very bright but also not annoying. All the symbols are perfectly drawn and the winning animations are pleasing. The soundtrack is at a high level, and it complements the overall style of the game perfectly.
Gameplay and Paylines
The sequel to the popular Jammin’ Jars slot, Jammin’ Jars 2 is a fun fruit-themed game. Like its predecessor, the game features 8×8 cluster payouts, sticky wilds and increasing multipliers. A fruit explosion adds colossal symbols to the grid. The instant prize symbols do what they say they will. In addition to the free spins feature, players can win instant prizes. The game also sits on an 8×8 grid and includes a juice counter.
The rainbow filled jar is the slot’s wild symbol, replacing all other images. Once in a paytable cluster, the Wild does not disappear from the screen after a payout has been credited, but rather moves to another position increasing your multiplier with each change of location.
This picture is also a Scatter – when three rainbow jars are placed in the player’s field of vision, a series of six free games are triggered.
The screen also periodically appears and images of coins with different denominations. If a cluster of any five coins is formed, their denominations add up and pay out to the player.

Bonus Games
Each time a prize chain is created on the screen, the symbols within the chain explode and give way to new elements. The Fruit Blast option is triggered randomly during these cascades. If this happens, one or more of the giant fruits are placed on the field and then the positions below it are transformed into similarly sized, smaller pictures, guaranteed to form prize clusters.
Collectable Gold Vinyl. When an image of a gold record lands on the screen during the main game, it moves to a special counter. The position of its fall is replaced by a random symbol. When the counter is filled to capacity and a new gold record appears on the screen, the Giga Jar Feature bonus is activated.
During this option, a giant Giga Jar symbol is placed on the screen as well as several wild symbols with different multipliers. The player is given eight free spins, during which the Giga Jar symbol stays in its place, the wild symbols move across the field, and coins and symbols stop in unoccupied cells, adding free spins to the series.
Mega Symbols – During any spin, large symbols can appear on the field, taking up several cells;
Cluster Pays – This system pays out when 5 or more of the same symbol appear on adjacent squares;
Walking Wilds – If a Wild symbol is used in a combination, it will increase its multiplier and move to one of the nearest empty squares.
Free Spins – activated on a roll of 3 or 4 Wilds. The player gets 6 freespins, during which the replacement symbols keep their multiplier and do not reset on a new spin;
Jamming – activated on a roll of 100 discs. The player gets freespins, during which a special symbol appears on the field, bringing a guaranteed payout every spin.
