Lucky Man Wins €3.3m Christmas Jackpot On Yggdrasil Slot

18+

Whilst most of us were happy to get our annual supply of underwear and socks, one man was drinking champagne out of a Dolce and Gabana boot, whilst shouting “Merry Christmas B**ches” in his loudest voice.

Or, at least, that’s what we are assuming, seeing as the gentleman in question triggered the biggest jackpot in Yggdrasil slots history.

On the 22nd of December 2016, Joker Millions paid out €3,291,513 to one lucky player.

We’ve got the full story, the video, and how you too could trigger the win of a lifetime.

How the Joker Millions jackpot was triggered

Whilst we’d usually give you a big story leading up to the golden moment, this time round we can actually showed you exactly what our mystery man saw the moment he spun those reels.

Just take a moment to close your eyes and image that you’re the one pressing the button.

What a rush hey?

It’s a pretty stunning turn of events, especially when you suddenly get the message to contact customer service in order to get your millions in cash.

Where the Joker Millions slot jackpot hit

Despite being one of the few jackpot slots from Yggdrasil Gaming, the other being Holmes and the Stolen Stones slot, not many mobile casinos actually host this game.

The casino where this jackpot was won is a German based casino, who we know little about, so wouldn’t recommend; namely sunnyplayer.com.

However, one casino that does host Joker Millions, and has won multiple awards both for it’s online and mobile casino platform, is Mr Green.

If you’ve not heard of them, then don’t worry. You get 20 free spins on Gonzo’s Quest to try out Mr Green casino, when you register, risk free.

How the Joker Millions slot works

It is actually a ridiculously simple game.

Joker Millions is a 25 payline slot, with sticky win mechanism.

Sticky wins means that when you get a set of winning symbols on screen, those symbols stay on screen as you get a re-spin of all the other symbols on the reels.

If you keep getting that symbol, you keep getting re-spins, until no more winning combinations can be made.

The best example of a Sticky Win slot game is Jack Hammer by NetEnt, but Joker Millions certainly brings a classic style that is hard to beat.

Those joker symbols just kept on giving

The joker symbols are special. Mostly because getting 3 or more will give you instant cash prizes ranging up to 1,000 coins.

So when our millionaire in the making saw 8 joker symbols on screen he couldn’t believe his eyes.

Especially as it was a leg up towards winning the jackpot, as all you need to get started is 5 symbols – one joker on each of the 5 reels.

But with 8 symbols, the slot jackpot spin was initiated and it only took 3 re-spins to get a screen full of Joker symbols, and for the €3.3 million jackpot slot game to pay out.

The biggest Yggdrasil jackpot slot win to date

The Joker Millions slot has got to be one of Yggdrasil’s biggest success story.

Despite still slowly getting released to different operators (rumours are that Leo Vegas casino will get it soon), it’s still managed to make waves thanks to the fact that it usually triggers around the 2 million mark.

That said, since March 2015 we’ve seen wins of €2.9million, €720,000 and €460,000 collected. So wins can happen at any point, really.

How much is €3,291,513?

If the euros means nothing to you, here’s a quick guide:

• £2,801,395.80
• AU$4,782,481.87
• US$3,441,294.23
• 31,647,921.85 SEK
• 29,914,525.70 NOK

No matter how you look at it, that’s a life changing amount right there.

How will our lucky winner spend his fortune?

Unfortunately for our story, the winner in question has chosen to remain anonymous.

So we have no idea what they’ll be doing with their new found fortune, but we suspect that their Christmas was a little different from the usual Turkey and crackers the rest of us experienced.

Fredrik Elmqvist, CEO at Yggdrasil Gaming, said: “We are thrilled to see a player win such a life changing sum of money, especially this close to Christmas and while playing one of our slots games. Joker Millions is our first progressive slot and it is beloved by both operators and players.”

Will you be the next jackpot slot winner?

We get big jackpot slot win stories all the time. We’ve had a few big wins ourselves, though nothing quite like €3.3 million – but we live in hope.

And the best way to get there is to simply start playing on some of the best jackpot slots on mobile.

Sure, Jokers Millions won’t be paying out too soon, having only recently hit, but there’s plenty of great casino games that are due to pay out.

What and where to play next:

Microgaming’s Mega Moolah has just hit over 6 million, so it’s ripe for the picking.

And whilst Mega Fortune has only reached over a million recently, it’s a bit early to play there just yet, it’s sister slot Mega Fortune Dreams is at over 2.2 million and tends to hit more often.

Where can you find these machines we hear you ask? Leo Vegas casino hosts them all, and you get 20 free spins no deposit on Mega Fortune Dreams the moment you register.

After all, 20 spins is all it could take to make your New Year the best New Year ever.
