Play the fool in High 5 Games’ Joker’s Riches
High 5 Games (H5G), the industry’s leading independent casino games provider, has rolled out the red carpet for its royal-themed release Joker’s Riches, which has become one of its best performing games in the regulated market of Sweden.
Set in the kingdom’s courtyard, players take the role of the jester as they look to receive royal approval by entertaining the high-paying symbols of the king and queen.
Wild jokers which appear on the reels turn other similar jokers into wilds. With three different jokers appearing throughout the gameplay, players will have plenty of opportunities to activate wilds and enjoy an exciting slot experience.
The trumpets sound when players enter the bonus round, where the jackpot treasure chest full of riches is up for grabs.
The HTML5 5×3, medium volatility slot features high-quality graphics and an immersive soundtrack to produce an engaging gaming experience, which is accessible across desktop, mobile and tablet devices.
Joker’s Riches is available to H5G’s network of operator partners through its leading remote game server, High 5 VAULT.
Nicholas Chin, Senior Director of Business Development at High 5 Games, said: “Joker’s Riches sees players grab the jester’s hat as they look to successfully entertain the king and queen in their quest to win big prizes.
“While players may be fooling around for the amusement of the royals, there’s no joking with the gameplay, which features wilds and free games to make for a fun gaming experience.
“Since launching, Joker’s Riches has already become one of our top-performing games in the UK and Sweden, and we’re sure it will prove to be a bigger hit as we roll out our latest slot across our operator network.”
