Yggdrasil is known for visually pleasing games, but in that department Frost Queen Jackpots is kind of disappointing. It’s not a total disaster in any way, but we have just learned to expect more from this popular Swedish developer. It’s also a fact that this game clearly has been built upon the same template used for their hit game, Holmes and the Stolen Stones, as many of the features are very similar.
The math models are far from similar however, as Frost Queen Jackpots offers a lower RTP combined with lower volatility. The regular potential is also significantly lower in this game, which is clearly made for casual and non-discerning players. You need to land a larger jackpot to win big in this game, which does offer plenty of features and entertainment for your money.
There are no wilds in Frost Queen Jackpots, but landing 2 mirror scatters anywhere triggers a “consolation”Pick’em Chest Game. You will see 5 treasure chests appear, and you get to pick one. You will then win a cash prize between 1x and 4x your stake, or you can win 10 free spins. You can also win a random key (more about that below), or trigger the multi-level Treasure Chest Bonus Game.
If you collect 5 matching keys during base game play, you will get10 free spinsand 1 random jackpot gem. You can also trigger the Magic Mirror bonus round the more conventional way, by landing at least 3 scatters on the same spin. You get an initial scatter win of 50x or 500x when you land 4 or 5 scatters, respectively. However, landing 3+ scatters might trigger the Treasure Chest Bonus Game instead of the Free Spins feature, so you never know.
Anyway, all wins are multiplied by a 3x boost during the free spins round, and you need to collect 5 matching gemstones to win 1 of  5 corresponding jackpots. All5 jackpotsare local progressives, and they seed at the following values:
If you trigger the Treasure Chest Bonus Game, you get to choose 1 of 3 chests on each level. The chest you pick will reveal cash prizes or keys, and each pick takes you to the next level for a new pick. The feature only ends when you pick the wrong chest, and are buried in an Avalanche. You can win between 5x and 100x your stake per chest pick.
Our first chest pick, triggered by landing 2 scatters, gave us only a smaller cash prize. However, not long after that we got the jackpot free spins feature from a new chest pick. We kept landing plenty of orange gems on reel 5, and also some blue gems on the first reel. Whether or not we collected enough to win a jackpot can be seen in the 2-minute highlights video below.
Frost Queen Jackpots is very similar to Yggdrasil’s Holmes and the Stolen Stones, but it’s not a complete reskin either. The low volatility is a tell-tale sign that this game is aimed for casual players, and fans of Disney movies will probably feel right at home in the frosty universe that’s presented here.
The regular win potential of1,265xis decent enough for this kind of variance, but chasing the progressive jackpots is probably more motivating. The features are varied, and they are kind of intertwined with each other, so there is alway plenty going on in this game. Collecting gems adds a bit of purpose to the gameplay also, and players who want some lighthearted winter fun will find plenty of that in Frost Queen Jackpots.
