In summary, NetEnt's Jack Hammer 3 successfully builds upon the beloved detective franchise, keeping the same theme as the previous two versions while also adding the Scatter mechanics. While I wasn’t crazy about the maximum win only being 1,332x, the overall experience was still loads of fun. Furthermore, I felt this was the best version of this slot series and I don’t think you will be disappointed if you give it a try.

Jack Hammer 3 Slot Features

Wild Symbols

Throughout the main game, Free Spins Bonus and re-spins, Wild symbols may appear on the reels. Acting as substitutes for all symbols except the Free Spins and Jack Hammer symbols.

Sticky Win Feature

The Sticky Win feature can activate during both the main game and the Free Spins Bonus. This feature triggers when one or more Scatters or a minimum of three Free Spins symbols land on the reels.

Re-Spins

During the Re-Spins feature, any winning symbols involved in Scatter Pays or free spins combinations remain locked in place while the remaining positions on the grid re-spin. Additional re-spins are granted when:

A new symbol joins an existing Scatter Pays combination
A new Scatter Pays combination forms
A Jack Hammer symbol appears

The re-spins end when none of the above conditions are met or when all grid positions are filled up by winning combinations.

Jack Hammer 3 Slot Bonus Features

Jack Hammer Feature

When the Jack Hammer symbol lands on the reels during a re-spin, it triggers the Jack Hammer feature.

During this feature, if the Jack Hammer symbol appears in a win with low-paying symbols, all these symbols will be upgraded to higher-paying symbols.

Each occurrence of the Jack Hammer symbol on the reels advances the win multiplier in the Mysterious Multiplier progress bar.

The Mysterious Multiplier progress bar resets at the end of re-spins in the main game, while maintaining its progress throughout free spins, resetting only at the end of the bonus round.

Mysterious Multiplier

When the Jack Hammer symbol lands with high-paying symbols, it opens the Mysterious Multiplier progress bar, increasing the multiplier.

Furthermore, when low-win symbols transition into high-win symbols, they too will contribute to the advancement of the Mysterious Multiplier progress bar.

To achieve multipliers of 2x, 3x, and 4x in the Mysterious Multiplier progress bar, a minimum of eight high-win symbols is required, while at least 20 symbols are needed for multipliers of 5x or higher.

Free Spins Bonus

Scatter symbols in both the main game and bonus round trigger free spins. Landing five to 10 or more free spins Scatters will award 10 to 20 free spins.

If both the Mysterious Multiplier feature and Free Spins Bonus are activated simultaneously, free spins commence, with the Mysterious Multiplier progression continuing until the end of the round.

Bonus Buy Feature

For non-UK players looking for a shortcut, the Bonus Buy Feature allows you to go directly to the free spins for a cost of 75x the original wager.

Our Verdict The bonus features were a lot of fun when I tried them out. I love a Sticky Wins mechanic because you never know how big your win is going to get, knowing that it grows with each additional symbol added. While I was happy to get 10 free spins as a baseline, needing five Scatters as a minimum to trigger the round meant that it didn’t come around very often.

Jack Hammer 3 Slot Graphics & Audio

Graphics

The background of Jack Hammer 3 slot is that of a cityscape, shrouded in darkness and drenched in rain. Among the low-paying symbols, you'll find cartoon depictions of a detective map, K9 police dog treats, lipstick, a revolver, and a pair of rubies and diamonds. As for the high-paying symbols, they represent a policeman, two cunning robbers, a police dog Pearl, and the notorious Madam Venom. Keep an eye out for the Wild symbol, depicted as a diamond set against a vibrant yellow background, adorned with the bold 'WILD' text.

Jack Hammer 3 (NetEnt) 2 — Base game spins

Jack Hammer 3 (NetEnt) 3 — Wins in the base game

Jack Hammer 3 (NetEnt) 4 — High value symbols form a win

Audio

During gameplay, the background remains relatively quiet, punctuated only by a generic noise as the reels come to a halt. However, when Sticky Wins activate, the reels spin with an increasingly high-pitched sound until they come to a stop.

Our Verdict Jack Hammer 3 is a slot game that looks really different from others you might find. I thought the comic book style was cool and well executed. Each panel in the game is different and has bright colours, which makes it look amazing. The only downside is that the sounds in the game are pretty basic compared to how awesome it looks.

Jack Hammer 3 is optimised to ensure the graphics are clear across all devices. Whether playing on smartphones or tablets, regardless of the operating system, the game operates flawlessly through web browsers and casino apps.
