Ice Joker

Play’n GO’s slot Ice Joker transports the player into the heart of a freezing winter storm, where icy reels hide unexpected surprises. The game’s frosty sovereign, Icelia, acts as the joker, lurking behind the frozen reels and appearing only when the cold reaches its peak.

When the ice queen steps forward, the entire grid awakens, and the quiet winter landscape transforms into a sparkling kingdom of frost.

How the game works

Ice Joker is played on a 5x3 grid with 20 fixed paylines, where wins are paid from left to right. Wins occur when at least three identical symbols land on an active payline without interruptions. Each symbol has its own payout multiplier, and only the highest win per line is paid.

Special symbols such as Wild and Ice Joker can substitute for other symbols to help form winning combinations. The Scatter symbol triggers bonus features that award additional wins on top of the base game.

The volatility feels balanced yet exciting: the base game runs steadily, while Ice Joker’s features can quickly elevate the intensity of any spin.

Special Features

Wild Symbols and Frozen Free Spins

The game includes two types of wild symbols: the regular Wild symbol and Icelia, who acts as the Special Wild, also known as the Ice Joker symbol.

The regular Wild substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter and can appear only on reels 2, 3 and 4. Regular wilds do not appear during Frozen Free Spins, but Ice Joker can take over the grid during this feature.

When Ice Joker lands on the reels, the player receives 3 Frozen Free Spins. The joker freezes in place, expands with each spin, and disappears only after filling the entire reel. If another Ice Joker appears during the feature, the number of free spins resets back to three. The feature can continue for a long time, awarding up to 51 free spins.

Winters Wild Wheel

Three Scatter symbols, represented by snowflakes, landing on reels 1, 3 and 5 activate the Winters Wild Wheel and award one free spin. During this spin, the player can win 2–7 Ice Jokers, which are collected.

If no new Ice Joker appears on the grid during the free spin, one of the previously collected jokers is added to the reels, triggering Frozen Free Spins. Each added joker reduces the number of collected jokers by one, and the feature continues as long as jokers remain.
