Though the Megaways system was originally created by Big Time Gaming, whom has decided to licence it away to everyone, it’s BluePrint Gaming that has seemingly really made the most out of it. Here again, we enter the fray with a game that takes advantage of the system.
What does Pig Wizard Megaways do differently then? To start with, they’ve chosen to go into tens of thousands of ways to win instead of hundreds of thousands. To this, the company has added a handful of interesting features. Read on to see how the slot will entertain you.
Theme and Symbols
Where the pig comes from is a bit of a mystery, but clearly somewhere interesting and important, as it made its way all the way into wizardhood. The theme is a mix of magic and antics, including a variety of spells that you are sure to run into. Symbols take after the classics, with treasures, hats, and of course the pig himself making a cameo. Some wizardly music set the tunes to which the reels spin.
Betting Options and Functions
Familiarise yourself with megaways, as this sort of gaming system runs a bit different to the norm. In a nutshell: wins form from adjacent symbols, starting from leftmost, with the number of symbols per reel changing on each spin.
The total number of ways to win, or megaways, stands at 15 626. That’s the absolute highest you’ll get. What about wins then? Well, the highest win paid out by this slot from a single six symbol combo is...10 times your stake!
Doesn’t sound like much, but do remember that this sort of games aims for several combos at once. Besides, considering that there’s no need to divide the bet between different paylines, it’s actually quite a high payout...
Features
Let’s start with the obvious: bonus spins. Three to six scatters will reward you with incrementally increasing extra spins, up to 20 at one go. Two scatters during these spins will add an extra spins to the mix, in fact even more than what you get from bonus symbols. Six scatters can lead to 25 extra spins. In addition, each spin comes with a random multiplier.
Then there are the magical modifiers. The Pig Wizard might summon any of these on the reels on any spin. Obviously though, it’s not all the time that he has the strength to weave magic on the reels.
- Spinnus Repeatum
You can probably guess how this works? There’s a magical mirror, and if any winning combinations have the same symbol as the mirror, you get a respin to add some more symbols into the mix for more wins!
- Magical Win Spin
This one will simply add wilds and mystery symbols to help you catch even bigger wins!
- Winnus Revealo
Had a losing spin? No worries, the wizard might show up to upgrade it into a winning one!
Our Take
The one absolute delight that this slot offers you are wins that are a tad bit higher than most other Megaways slots. True, this comes at the cost of maximum total wins and lower number of payways, but it’s a trade that might be better off in the long run...or just fun for variety. Either case, Blueprint Gaming has come up with another magnificent megaways game!
