Jester scatter payouts
The photographed paytable specifies three, four or five Jesters anywhere for 2×, 20× or 100× the total bet respectively. These are complete-spin stake multipliers, not multipliers of a single line’s stake.
For example, at a hypothetical total wager of 2.00 currency units, three Jesters pay 4.00, four pay 40.00 and five pay 200.00. The three-Jester payment alone is a 2.00 net gain after subtracting that paid spin’s cost; any other qualifying awards and subsequent feature returns must be accounted for separately.
Five free spins at a 10× multiplier
Any three, four or five Jesters trigger five free spins at a 10× multiplier. Landing more Jesters increases the triggering scatter payment, rather than the number of free spins. The feature retains the triggering bet and lines.
The same help screen states that free spins cannot retrigger and that the separate Mardi Gras Bonus cannot trigger during free spins. Do not transfer retrigger rules from other Microgaming slots to this edition.
What the historical screens establish
The rules screen advertises up to 200,000 coins, but does not fully explain the stake conditions for that headline figure. It is not treated here as a cash jackpot or as 200,000 times the complete stake. The available captures also do not establish a current RTP, betting ceiling or the complete rules of the separate Mardi Gras Bonus.
Frequently asked questions
Do five Jesters give more than five free spins?
No. The photographed rule awards five spins for any qualifying three-, four- or five-Jester trigger.
Can free spins restart during the feature?
No. The original help explicitly excludes retriggering.
Can the Mardi Gras Bonus start during free spins?
No, according to this edition’s help screen.
Are scatter awards based on the line bet?
No. The displayed scatter table uses the total stake across the played lines.
Do these images prove the game is currently available?
No. They document a historical edition. Check the operator’s actual catalogue and country restrictions before relying on availability.
Sources and edition notes
The rules and numerical examples were checked against two original game screens in LCB’s Mardi Gras Fever gallery. Both were visually inspected; the gallery’s standalone logo was excluded from gameplay evidence. The title bar and the rules screen’s Microgaming credit support the edition identification.
