This article recaps the original game to help players at Australian online casinos like Omni Casino and Mansion Casino get a feel of it.
Everybody’s Jackpot online pokie has the popular game show theme. The host of the show and his pretty assistant are the high paying symbols. The other symbols are gold bars and emerald necklace. The low paying symbols are the playing card depicted as neon lights. Everybody's Jackpot has the reel structure unique to a selection of Playtech pokies. There are 9 independent reels in a 3×3 grid with 8 paylines running horizontally, vertically and diagonally.
The Mystery Progressive Jackpot can be triggered randomly during any main game spin. The player who has triggered the jackpot on his screen wins 70% of the amount standing in the progressive jackpot at that time. The remainder of the jackpot is shared in a unique manner among qualified players. A qualified player is one who has wagered at least AU$50 on Everybody’s Jackpot in the last 24 hours. 15% of the jackpot is shared equally among all other qualified players and 15% is distributed amongst the qualified players in proportion to their bets during the last 24 hours.
