Feedbacks and recommendations of the testers

• Joker Strike is the slot without the classic free spins or bonus feature as such. In this case, the slot has the Joker Strike bonus feature (mini bonus) and the potential for triggering winnings up to 1000x bets. Also, the slot has a feature "Hi Rolls" with the potential of giving winnings up to 2000x bets. In the usual spins (without triggering the bonus feature), the slot gives only small winnings ranging from less than the normal bet size to 15x bets, sometimes giving long series of spins without payment combinations.
• With each payment combination, the slot triggers the Joker Strike bonus feature, the gameplay of which is simple. It just triggers an additional playing field around the perimeter of the slot with symbols located on it, and it runs around until choosing one of the symbols (roulette like). When this feature selects the symbol that is part of the payment combination of the usual spin, 6 to 10 bonus symbols are awarded (2 for each symbol of the pay combination in the usual spins), which are randomly put on the playing field, improving the launching payment combination. Good (currently winning) symbol is not often, on average, every 5-10 triggers, while, often, only in combinations of 3 symbols in the usual spins, and less often – at 4 or 5. The average win when the bonus feature triggers are 5x-15x bets, less often - winnings reach the size of 45x total bets. It was not possible to get the winnings of more than 45x.
• Joker Strike slot release the potential of giving bigger wins in the "Hi Rolls". In this feature, there are 3 versions of the game, each of these is making your bet bigger, but adds additional features to the game. This increases the potential for a big win. 
• The first feature, worth 20x bet size, gives the player 5 spins with the gameplay as in the same usual spins + random wild symbol moving on the reels, which helps to get the payment combination and trigger the bonus feature.
• The second feature, worth 30x bet, gives the player 5 spins with gameplay, similar to the first feature, + adding to the additional reel, where the slider moves, wild symbols, which will be added in an amount of 6 to 10 pieces, when it falls, regardless of the symbols involved in the payment combination, in the main pay combination.
• The third feature, costing 50x bet size, gives the player 5 spins with completely the same functionality as the previous feature, with the addition of on the playing field of the second “runner”, which increases the chances of them getting to the desired symbol or wild symbol.
• Buying these features does not always bring a big win, even with the high potential and the increased price of payment combinations by x2. Most of the time it gives a win less than the price you trigger it for, but still, during testing, it was possible to get winnings in several times the price you trigger it for, and the maximum won was x13 purchase price.
• At the same time, I personally believe that the purchase of the first feature is almost useless since it has a play mode that is almost the same as the usual spins. But the purchase of the second and third features has the highest potential for giving the big win, due to the possible trigger of full-screen wild symbols, but that is not often given.
• I would not recommend trying to buy those features all the time and wait for full-screen wild symbols, as the potential of this is extremely low, and the potential of you losing your balance is high. If Joker Strike is willing to give the big win, it will do it almost from the beginning (during testing, it gave them from the first purchase). The maximum recommended number of buys - no more than three.

Joker Strike is not recommended if you play with bonus money, because it is bad at keeping the balance. While playing for real money, I would recommend only short gaming sessions in an attempt to get a well-paid combination, as the slot rarely releases its potential.

If it stops at the symbol that is frozen on the reels, the bonus is triggered. Depending on the number of dropped symbols, there are additional symbols of the same kind. After that is summarizing the winnings. For example, the combination of three symbols will give another 6, four and five symbols will bring 8 and 10 additional symbols.
