Jackal's Judgement game tile — Anubis in gold and lapis regalia holding a staff inside a torch-lit Egyptian tomb

Jackal's Judgement

Anubis fills his reel with a multiplier badge. Two badges on one line multiply together — and in the Tomb of Spirits, every badge feeds a global multiplier that never lets go.

Stake.us is a free-to-play sweepstakes casino — no purchase necessary, and it's blocked in a number of US states. Our signup walkthrough covers which.

Read this bit first. We built this game. We earn when you play it, and we earn again if you sign up to Stake through our link. That makes this the single least neutral page on the site, and pretending otherwise would undo the point of everything else here. So: the specs below are lifted straight from the math that ships to Stake's servers, the house edge is printed at the top rather than buried, and nothing on this page will tell you a slot is a way to make money. It isn't. Full disclosure.

The idea

Egyptian slots are the most crowded theme in the industry, and most of them are the same game wearing different sandals. Ours earns the theme with one rule: Anubis judges, and judgement compounds. His expanding wild fills the reel and carries a multiplier badge you can read from across the room.

Badges that multiply each other

One expanded wild with a 5× badge is a good line. Two wilds on the same line multiply together — 5× and 10× is 50×, and in Anubis Judgement mode badges run up to 25×. This is the whole game in one sentence: the wilds don't add, they multiply.

Three doors into the tomb

The three bonus buys are genuinely different games, not one feature at three prices. Tomb of Spirits banks every wild badge into a global multiplier for the round. Scarab Hoard is a Hold & Win chase with fixed jackpots to 2,500×. Anubis Judgement is five super spins where the global multiplier climbs additively. Same 96.50% price on every door.

Developer perspective

This game shipped under a different working title until we found a live slot already using it — so we renamed ours before submission rather than argue trademarks with a bigger studio. That's the unglamorous part of running a factory: the check that catches a collision before it costs you a review cycle. Mechanically, we wanted an Egyptian game that isn't a Book clone — the expanding wild carries a visible multiplier badge, badges multiply together across a line, and the free spins bank them globally. Three genuinely different bonus buys, priced honestly at the same RTP.

Every way to play it

All modes run at the same 96.50% RTP — buying a feature doesn't buy a better edge, it buys a shortcut past the waiting.

What 96.50% actually means

Every one of our games runs at a 96.50% RTP, which is the same thing as a 3.50% house edge — and you don't have to take our word for it, because Stake prints "Edge: 3.50%" on the game page itself. Go and look.

Here's what that number honestly means, and what it doesn't. Over a very large number of spins, the game is built to return 96.50% of everything staked. So the expected cost of putting a dollar through it is about three and a half cents. That's the price of the entertainment, and it's a fair one by slot standards — plenty of games run worse.

What it does not mean is that you'll get 96.50% back tonight. High volatility means the individual results scatter enormously around that average: long dry stretches punctuated by rare big hits is the intended shape, not a malfunction. A max win is a genuinely rare event. If you want to see what variance does to a bankroll over a session, the Strategy Lab will show you, and it doesn't flatter anybody.

The only advice worth giving: decide what the evening costs before you start, treat it as spent, and stop when you said you would. No spin pattern, bet-sizing system or time of day changes a 3.50% edge. If it stops being fun, here's where to get help.

Where to play it

Jackal's Judgement is live on Stake.us, exclusive to Stake, and built on Stake Engine — Stake's platform for independent studios. It also carries Stake's 2× VIP points multiplier, which is a genuine reason to pick it over another studio's game if you're working a VIP tier.

Questions people actually ask

What is the max win on Jackal's Judgement?

10,000× your bet, reachable in every mode. The realistic path runs through multiplied wild badges in the Tomb of Spirits or Anubis Judgement — and like every slot ceiling, it's rare by design.

Are the three bonus buys different features or different prices?

Genuinely different features: free spins with a banking global multiplier, a Hold & Win jackpot chase, and five super spins. All three run the same 96.50% RTP — the buy changes which game you play, not the price.

What are the Scarab Hoard jackpots?

Fixed values: Mini 20×, Minor 50×, Major 500×, Grand 2,500× your bet. Fixed means printed — they don't scale with anyone else's play and we can put the numbers right here.

Why did the game change its name?

The working title collided with a slot already live from another studio, so we renamed before submission. We'd rather tell you that than pretend the launch was seamless — receipts are the whole brand.
