Originally our “Saved by the Bells” progressive jackpot was contributed to by 5 games: Pirates Millions, Irish Riches, Santa’s Super Slot, Steampunk Nation and Saved by the Bells. When each casino launched with the NEW Orbit casino platforms (February 2021) additional game content was added and 4 new jackpot games were added to the “Saved by the Bells” progressive. Those games include Aztec Realm, Mermaid’s Millions, Oktoberfest, and Rise of the Pharaohs. Now, there are a total of 9 jackpot games that contribute to the “Saved by the Bells” progressive jackpot.
