Spring Heeled Jack

You have to hand it to Blue Guru Games. The self-styled storytellers have dug deep into British lore and come up with a character you just don't hear about much these days, if at all. Whatever else we say here, let's tip our hat to the team for shrugging off conventionality and picking a non-cliche character to star in a game, though the non-Jack characters are a tad generic. There is a bit of a chicken and egg scenario happening here. Did Blue Guru Games come up with the leaping concept and track down the Spring Heeled Jack character, or did it stumble upon Spring Heeled Jack first while doing some research which led to the leaping idea? An enigma that is as mysterious as the game it arose in. Another enigma, to a lesser extent, is the multiplier system used in the game. Sometimes overuse can lead to dilution, and there are moments when the multipliers in Spring-Heeled Jack threaten to do so. They land with such abundance at times, their significance can fade, especially when a bunch of them combine to create a disappointing win, in part because symbol values are relatively low. It was peculiar hitting a five-symbol win with an x90 multiplier and pocketing 27x the bet. Their results can be quite impressive, though, and winning potential is too, as the max recorded win in a billion simulated spins was15,587x the bet. To sum up, Spring Heeled Jack has its pros and cons, learning closer to the former than the latter. It's got the trademarked Blue Guru Games storytelling aspect due to the unearthing of a not exactly well-known figure these days and slotting him into a game with an unusual multiplier meets mystery symbols system. It won't excite everyone, but players on the hunt for a game with an obscure character, and a multiplicative side, might find their needs met in Spring Heeled Jack.
