Jammin’ Jars 2 Slot (Push Gaming)

The Jammin’ Jars 2 slot takes place on an 8x8 grid. With no traditional reels or paylines, winning combinations are typical of Cluster Pays slots. You need to see 5 or more symbols of the same type appear connected vertically, horizontally or both to form a winning cluster. The more matching symbols that appear in a cluster, the larger the win or payout with 32 or more awarding the top win for that symbol.

When it comes to betting options, you can play Jammin’ Jars 2 from just 10p a spin. This is half the amount in the game’s predecessor. The max bet is £100 per spin but this figure will be reduced at the majority of slot and casino sites. Non-UK players can use Autoplay for up to 100 auto spins with single win and loss limits. There’s also a Turbo Mode in the ‘Settings’ section to speed up the play.

The Jammin’ Jars 2 RTP rate is 96.4%. Lower than the 96.83% in the first outing, it’s higher than the 96% average for an online slot game. The RTP can also rise to 96.6% when you progress through the levels in the Collectable Gold Vinyl feature (more information below in the Bonus Features section). Push Gaming has also created 95.35% and 94.4% RTP alternative versions which are more than likely to be used at most UK sites.

High on the volatility front, Push Gaming provide no hit frequency rate information. In terms of win potential, the Jammin’ Jars 2 slot comes with 50,000 times bet max wins. This is 2.5 times higher than the 20,000 x bet in the original game.

- Your Slots Guide 👍

With 20+ years' experience in the online gambling industry, I've reviewed more than 10,000 slot games along the way. Having worked with slot studios as well as casino and slots operators, I offer honest slot reviews, exclusive access and put your interests (the player) first.

Slots can be fun, but they can also be confusing.
With so many slots out there, it’s easy to end up with run of the mill games, boring mechanics or bonus features that don't offer much excitement. That’s why I focus on reviewing games honestly, breaking down what actually matters, and helping you find the right slot game. If a game is bad or if there is a better alternative, you'll know.

I don’t promote hype, just the best sites to play your favourite games.
I guide you to the top slot sites that are worth their time, including a look at at available deposit methods, withdrawal times, games offering, welcome offers, promotions for existing players, mobile compatibility and much more.

My goal is simple 

Make sure you don’t waste time or money on second-rate slots or slot sites. In a nutshell, I’m here to help you find better games, better sites, smarter bonuses, and a more rewarding way to play.

With a fruit/disco theme, the Jammin’ Jars 2 slot is the sequel to the iconic Jammin’ Jars. Released nearly 3 years later (2^nd of June 2021 vs 18^th of September 2018), the most popular Cluster Pays game is back and groovier than ever.

In this version, you step onto a fruity dancefloor, raving to the Giga Jar DJ who sports headphones and sunglasses. With palm trees and neon fruits in the backdrop, the backdrop is much more detailed and immersive than in the first game. It has a Miami/Spring Break feel to it visually. Complimented by a catchy, disco soundtrack, it stays true to the original slot game yet has its own character.

On the 8x8 grid, you’ll come across 6 vividly-coloured fruit symbols including figs, grapes, peaches, watermelons, pineapples and pomegranates. The pomegranate symbol pays the most awarding a 1,000 times bet payout for 32 or more in a cluster.

You’ll also see the Wild Jar symbol that substitutes for all other symbols. Remaining on the grid when a Collapse occurs, it moves to a randomly adjacent, vacant position before the following Collapse. They also come with multipliers which start at 1x and increases by 1 every time it contributes to a cluster win.

Jammin’ Jars 2 also comes with Instant Prize, Giant Fruit, and Gold Vinyl Record symbols. Their functions are explained in more detail within the Bonus Features section below. Here is a list of all symbol payouts and functions:

• Fig: 5-32+ = 0.1 to 100 x bet
• Grape: 5-32+ = 0.1 to 125 x bet
• Peach: 5-32+ = 0.2 to 150 x bet
• Watermelon: 5-32+ = 0.2 to 200 x bet
• Pineapple: 5-32+ = 1 to 600 x bet
• Pomegranate: 5-32+ = 1.5 to 1,000 x bet
• Wild Jar: Substitutes for all symbols, acts as a Scatter + comes with multipliers
• Instant Prize: Contain prizes up to 1,000 x bet + collected when 5+ land in a cluster
• Giant Fruit: Transform any position into the same fruit symbol
• Gold Vinyl Record: Collected for Collectable Gold Vinyl feature

Jammin’ Jars 2 Mobile

Push Gaming is a mobile-first slot studio focusing for play on iOS and Android smartphone devices. With a dedicated Portrait Mode, the 8x8 grid takes up more of your handheld screen for an optimised playing experience. It’s also compatible with laptop, PC and tablet devices.

The Jammin’ Jars 2 slot comes with 7 bonus features. Similar to the original game, there are Collapses, Wild Jar symbols with increasing multipliers, Instant Prize symbols worth up to 1,000x, Fruit Blasts, free spins and a Giga Jar feature where you can benefit from plenty of Instant Prize symbols.

Collapse

When a winning cluster appears on the grid, the Collapse feature comes into play. Symbols that contribute to any cluster win are removed from the grid with all remaining symbols collapsing downwards. Then new symbols drop from the top of the screen to fill empty positions on the grid. This process repeats itself as long as winning clusters appear.

Wild Jar Symbol

When a Wild Jar symbol is part of a cluster win, the Wild Jar Symbol feature will be activated. The Wild Jar symbol randomly moves to an adjacent, vacant position before the following collapse takes place. When the collapse occurs, all Wild Jar symbols are held in position.

Each Wild Jar symbol comes with a 1x multiplier. Applying to any win that the Wild Jar symbol is part of, the associated multiplier value increases by 1. The maximum possible multiplier for a single Wild Jar symbol can reach 43x.

Instant Prize Symbol

Look out for Instant Prize symbols which contain bet multiplier values between 1 and 1,000 times your total bet. When 5 or more Instant Prize symbols land in a cluster, their total values are added together and awarded.

Known as the Instant Prize Symbol feature, below are the Instant Prize symbol values they can display:

• 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 25x, 50x, 100x, 500x or 1,000x

Fruit Blast 

After any collapse or cascade, the Fruit Blast feature can be triggered randomly. An equalizer animates over the grid and adds 1 or more Giant Fruit symbols of the same type or an Instant Prize symbol to the grid.

The Giant Fruit symbols transform any positions that they cover to the fruit symbol of the same type. On the other hand, it can convert any positions that they cover to Instant Prize symbols. The latter spins through the possible bet multipliers revealing one value. Once landed, the Instant Prize bet multiplier value is applied to the bet value. Finally, Wild Jar symbols cannot be transformed by Giant Fruit or Instant Prize symbols.

Free Games 

Jammin’ Jars 2 also benefits from a Free Games feature. It’s triggered by landing 3 or more Wild Jar symbols anywhere on the 8x8 grid. 6 free spins are then awarded.

When a Wild Jar symbol contributes to a cluster win, it moves to a random adjacent, vacant position before the following collapse occurs (like in the base game). With all Wild Jar symbols held in position when collapses occur, Wild Jar multipliers increase each time they are part of a cluster win.

Collectable Gold Vinyl 

Keep an eye out for Gold Vinyl Record symbols landing during the base game. They travel to the Giga Jar where they are collected. A random paying fruit symbol is left behind in its place on the grid.

Called the Collectable Gold Vinyl feature, collecting a certain number of Gold Vinyl Record symbols will see you move through the levels with the average RTP rising each time:

Giga Jar 

If you reach the MAX level and land a Gold Vinyl Record symbol, there is a chance you can activate the Giga Jar feature. When this happens, existing symbols fall off the grid, including Wild Jar symbols.

The Giga Jar then throws 3 or 4 Wild Jar symbols onto the grid in random positions: these will be added to the grid as 2x2, 3x3 or 4x4 Instant Prize symbol blocks.

8 Giga Jar spins are then awarded with each symbol position spinning through to land Instant Prize symbols. If you land a cluster of 5 or more Instant Prize symbols, you’ll create a winning cluster with the bet multiplier prizes awarded. Also, there is a chance an Instant Prize symbol can give you 1 or 2 extra spins.

After every spin, Wild Jar symbols will randomly position to an adjacent, vacant position. With multipliers increasing if part of a cluster win, all Instant Prize symbol clusters, apart from the Instant Prize symbol block, will be awarded. The initial Instant Prize symbol block spins through and lands on an instant prize.

Finally, when you run out of spins, a new Giga Jar appears with an initial level of 2, 3 or 4.

Jammin’ Jars 2 Slot

Rating: 4.7/5

Jammin' Jars 2 offers better visuals, extra/enhanced bonus features and much bigger win potential than the original Jammin' Jars slot. One of the most popular Cluster Pays slots, it comes with 50,000 x bet max wins.

Chris Taylor

The Jammin’ Jars 2 slot game is an iconic Cluster Pays release. Push Gaming has kept true to the original game but has improved the visuals significantly with more detail in the backdrop, symbols and animations. I love the palm tree/neon-inspired nightclub/disco as well as the presence of the Giga Jar DJ.

Push Gaming has also enhanced the gameplay with more bonus features. The Giga Jar feature is particularly impressive but not guaranteed to trigger. If it does, the Wild Jar symbols can see your win potential rise as Instant Prize symbols can dish out huge wins.

With 50,000 times bet max wins, Jammin’ Jars 2 offers 2.5 times the win potential that its predecessor does. On a negative note, the RTP is 96.4% which is still high but lower than the 96.83% offered in the first outing.

In summary, the original Jammin’ Jars game was an iconic release but Push Gaming has gone all out with the Jammin’ Jars 2 slot with better graphics, enhanced bonus features and much higher win potential. As far as sequels go, you cannot ask for much more.

Slot Sequels

If you’re looking for slot sequels, my favourite is NetEnt’s Starburst XXXtreme which comes with 200,000 x bet max wins whilst the original, Starburst, offers 500 x bet payouts.

Nolimit City released Tombstone in April 2019 and has 11,456 x bet max wins. The sequel, Tombstone RIP, was released in January 2022 and offers 300,000 x bet max wins. Subsequently, Tombstone Slaughter offers 500,000 x bet max win potential!

Finally, Big Time Gaming released Bonanza Falls in December 2023: 7 years after the most popular Megaways slot ever, Bonanza Megaways. Offering all the thrills of the iconic game, it uses a new Megadozer mechanic which can lead to 93.540 x bet max wins.

Bingo players miss out all the time – better rooms, fairer bonuses, and friendlier communities are out there, but they’re not always easy to find. 

That’s where I come in. 

I’ve spent over 17 years in the online gambling industry, with most of that time focused on bingo, including hands-on roles with Gala Bingo and Ladbrokes Bingo.

I know how bingo sites work behind the scenes, how offers are really put together, and where the genuine value is for players (hint: it’s not always the biggest bonus).

Since joining OLBG in 2014, I’ve been reviewing bingo sites, highlighting underrated rooms, and helping players avoid the common mistakes that can ruin a good game. 

I enjoy a game of bingo myself and have loved seeing how the industry has evolved, which means I judge sites the same way you do – as a player.

I’m not here to push flashy promotions.
