How to Play Joker Bombs

Open Joker Bombs and adjust your stake between $0.20 and $100. Hacksaw rates this one 3/5 on their own volatility meter — their third level of five, smoother than the extreme-variance titles they are known for. There is no hit frequency published for this game, so budget by spins rather than by someone's estimated percentage.

Hit spin or use autoplay. The 6×5 grid holds nine paying symbols — four high-pay and five low-pay — plus the Joker scatter and the three bomb types. Wins resolve through Scatter Pays: eight or more matching symbols anywhere across the 30 positions pay out, wherever they land.

Winning symbols explode and disappear, everything above drops down, and new symbols fill the gaps. If the refilled grid holds another eight-of-a-kind, it pays again. Chains keep rolling until no new match forms — and every bomb collected along the way stays live for the rest of that chain.

Two of the three bomb types feed a running pool. A standard Multiplier Bomb lands with its value showing. A Revealing Bomb lands with its face hidden and only shows what it is worth when it detonates at the end of the chain. Hacksaw doesn't publish the value ranges for either one in this game — they are in the in-game paytable only.

The Epic Bomb, marked with an X, doesn't add to the pool — it multiplies it. That means a modest chain carrying an Epic Bomb can beat a long chain without one, and it is why the biggest results here come from bomb luck rather than raw symbol counts. The multiplier it applies is not published outside the game.

Joker scatters open the Free Spins round and the bomb mechanics carry into it. How many scatters are needed, how many spins you get and how bomb behaviour changes inside the feature are all described in the in-game help screen and nowhere else. The route to 5,000x runs through a heavy bomb pool with an Epic Bomb on top.
