Jackpot Rango review
Jackpot Rango review
Rango has been considered one of the best animated films of all time and it could be perhaps due to the fact that it isn’t really a kids movie – rather, it’s better suited to the older crowd.
Play iSoftBet's Rango at these online casinos
This could be why the theme has translated so well to a real money gaming machine, created by iSoftBet, with a progressive jackpot available to be won. Additionally, the 3D graphics are incredible and we think they do the film proud.
Jackpot Rango follows the movie plot of a chameleon (voiced by Johnny Depp), named Rango, who has been a pet all his life but wants to become something more. He has always blended in so to stand out he ventures to a town called Dirt, aims to become the Sheriff and faces some interesting situations, which in turn give Rango the chance to become a hero.
If you haven’t seen the movie we recommend watching it, but you don’t need to in order to enjoy this progressive poker machine – though you will get more entertainment from the slot if you have.

How to play Jackpot Rango slot machine
Featuring 25 paylines over 5 reels this slot is set in the town called Dirt, as per the movie. If you aren’t familiar with the film then it definitely is akin to a Wild West setting.
The game features a progressive jackpot, free spins, Sticky Wilds and HD animations. However, players can only win the jackpot if they play the max bet which is 10 coins per line, therefore the minimum bet that can be played to win the jackpot is $2.50, as we have listed below. This is why the progressive is often said to be an expensive one.

- Maximum coins per spin: 250
- Maximum coins per line: 10
- Minimum bet per spin: $0.25 for standard play or $2.50 for jackpot
- Maximum bet per spin: $125

Rango symbols, free spins, and jackpot
The reels are quite animated with clips from the movie activating animations of each characters when they form part of a winning payline. They also feature the lower value symbols including 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A, as well, as characters from the movie represent the rest of the lower value symbols. The paytable shows what each symbol pays out when you land a winning combination.
The higher value symbols include the Wild symbol, which is the Rattlesnake Jake symbol, and the Scatter symbol, which is the Sheriff badge with Rango written on it. Additionally, the Jackpot Progressive symbol is another symbol you should keep an eye out for.
Wild symbol: The Rattlesnake replaces all of the other symbols, except for the Sheriff Badge symbol and the Progressive Jackpot symbol. They also play a role in the two free spins bonus rounds.
Scatter symbol Free Spins: Spin three Sheriff badges and you will have triggered the standard Free Spins bonus round. Here you will receive 10 free spins. To earn multipliers for your free spins, you will need to land a winning combination with at least one Wild symbol.
- A winning combination with one Wild will reward players a 2x multiplayer
- A winning combination with two Wild will reward players a 4x multiplayer
- A winning combination with three Wild will reward players a 8x multiplayer
You do need to land these during the free spins for them to occur, so there is only the chance of at least nine free spins having a multiplier attached.
- Rango Free Spins: There is also another way to get free spins, albeit only two. Spin two Rango symbols (the chameleon for those who haven’t seen the movie) and any chameleon symbol on the reels will turn Wild and remain sticky for two free spins. The standard Wild, the Rattlesnake, also remains sticky when spun.
- Progressive jackpot: As mentioned above, players can only win the jackpot on Rango by playing the max bet of 10 coins per line which is $2.50 per spin.
Playing at the max bet, you need to land five Progressive Jackpot symbols for a chance at the jackpot.
Our thoughts
The graphics have been done brilliantly and definitely ring true to the film, but this progressive can add up if your aiming to play it for the jackpot, which is generally why we play progressives.
The Free Spins on offer are a bonus, though the multiplier can be quite hard to get. The Rango Free Spins are also a nice touch, especially with the Sticky Wild feature attached. We played this on both the mobile and desktop platform and enjoyed both versions.
