Jeopardy Review
The slot game Jeopardy is based on the popular television quiz show of the same name. The quiz show featured the Jeopardy round in which contestants risked losing their accumulated earnings. Some of the symbols on the reels feature the categories of questions in the television show. These are Sports, Science, Music, Movies and Animals. The other symbols are reminiscent of those found in classic slot games. These are Sevens of three different colors and 3-bar, 2-bar and 1-bar. All bars have Jeopardy written on them. There are three special symbols - the Double Jeopardy wild symbol, the Jeopardy Bonus symbol and the Jeopardy Logo.
One interesting aspect about Jeopardy is that it has different background music playing at different times. This relieves the monotony. There is also some excellent animation with sounds other than music. The animations take place when the symbols line up in winning combinations. In the Animals symbol the cow lifts her head and moos. In the Movie symbol the clapper board is struck. The Jeopardy Bonus symbol shows the best animation. The Jeopardy television set is displayed with lights flashing and audience cheering.

Full Review - Jeopardy (9.15)
Jeopardy offers two ways of selecting paylines and number of coins. Players who want to wager equal number of coins on all paylines can make their selection using the buttons below the reels. Players who want to enable a partial number of paylines or wager unequal number of coins on paylines can do so by clicking the buttons next to the paylines. Jeopardy offers nine paylines with up to 5 coins per payline. The coin size remains fixed at 1.00.
The Double Jeopardy wild symbol offers a payout of 25,000 credits if five such symbols are aligned in a payline with maximum amount wagered. When the Double Jeopardy symbol acts as a wild symbol it doubles payouts. The Jeopardy Logo offers a fixed payout of 2500 coins when five of these symbols are aligned in an active payline.
The best feature in Jeopardy is the Jeopardy Bonus Feature. This is triggered by three or more Jeopardy Bonus symbols in an active payline. When this game is triggered the player is taken to a second screen that has 30 squares displayed under various heads just as in the television show. Players have to click on the squares to reveal their bonus credits. If they click on a "Daily Double" square then their accumulated credits till that point get doubled. Players can keep on clicking squares until they reveal a "Final Jeopardy" square. At that point players can either collect their bonus prize or move to the Final Jeopardy Bonus Feature. In this feature there are three contestants on the screen and the player has to pick a contestant whom he thinks will provide the correct answer to the question. It is a game based purely on luck. Two of the contestants give the correct answer and one gives the wrong answer. Therefore the player has a two- thirds chance of winning. A player can also wager a part of his winnings from the earlier round. If he guesses incorrectly he loses the amount wagered.
