Bounty of the Beanstalk: Jack, a sleeping giant and a progressive pot

The jackpot box in the top right corner reads MYR 1,278,674.78, and two screenshots later it has crept up to MYR 1,278,674.80. That slow tick is the first clue that Bounty of the Beanstalk is tied to a progressive pot, and the intro card explains how you reach it.

The game opens with a storybook turning to "Once upon a time" before the reels appear against a farmhouse and a huge green beanstalk, with Jack standing to the right with his arms folded. The grid is five reels by four rows. Symbols are an axe, a bunch of magic beans, a blonde girl, a grinning cow, 9, 10, J, Q, K and A, plus three specials: a Beanstalk WILD, a Jack tile marked BONUS, and the giant's head marked FREE SPINS.

Two features, same reels

The card above is the one bit of real rules in this set. On the left, the Giant's Treasure Bonus: BONUS symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5 take you to the giant's table, where you collect 3 golden items to win the progressive jackpot. On the right, Giant Free Spins: FREE SPINS symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5, and "watch Jack run as the Giant creates WILDS on the reels". The small picture shows two reel positions labelled LOCKED, so the wilds seem to stick, though that's my reading of a thumbnail.

Setting a bet on Bounty of the Beanstalk

INFO, LINES with minus and plus, LINE BET with minus and plus, WIN, TOTAL BET, TURBO MODE, AUTO PLAY and a green SPIN. Every shot is on 1 line at MYR0.01. The old page said the game has 50 lines; I can't see that here.

In the shot above three Qs on the top row pay MYR0.10 from a MYR0.01 bet, with the giant's head sitting on reel 5, one short of what the free spins need.
