5 Lions Megaways Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Pragmatic Play has given one of its most iconic slots a Megaways makeover. 5 Lions Megaways is a new and improved version with more winning ways and a larger max win on offer to bring players a new gaming experience.

Theme and Graphics

As one of Pragmatic Play’s most popular slots, 5 Lions is a pretty iconic game. So, it was a great decision on the part of the design team to keep the Megaways remake as similar as the original as possible in terms of aesthetics.

Pragmatic Play’s 5 Lions Megaways slot looks just as good as the original game, with a little bit more polish. The game is bright and vibrant with symbols that just about jump off the screen, making for a fantastic first impressive for players.

How to Play

The controls for 5 Lions Megaways are simple:

• The i button takes you to the paytable
• The three horizontal lines take you to a settings screen where you can adjust the sound and spin speed
• Clicking on the + and – buttons will adjust your bet size. You can wager between .10 coins and 100 coins per spin.
• Use the autoplay menu to set the reels to spin on their own, and set loss/win limits.

5 Lions Megaways RTP and Variance

5 Lions Megaways has an RTP of 96.5%. It’s also a highly volatile slot, with a top prize of 5000x.

How to Win

Like in all Megaways slot games, the number of ways to win in 5 Lions Megaways varies depending on the number of symbols that are present on each reel. Between 2 and 7 symbols can be displayed on every reel, which means that a maximum of 117,649 way to win are available.

When you land a win in this slot, a cascade occurs causing all winning symbols to disappear. Then, new symbols fall into those places.

Wild Multipliers

Wild multipliers are active in this slot, as well. Whenever you land a win with a wild symbol involved, the wild will have a multiplier attached to it. You can land a multiplier between x2 and x40 to help boost your winning potential.

Free Spins and Bonuses

The free spins bonus in 5 Lions Megaways is triggered by landing three or more scatters. Before the bonus begins, you’ll get to pick from one of the following 7 options:

• 25 free spins with a x2, x3 or x5 wild multiplier
• 20 free spins with a x2, x5, or x8 wild multiplier
• 15 free spins with a x5, x8 or x10 wild multiplier
• 13 free spins with a x8, x10 or x15 wild multiplier
• 10 free spins with a x10, x15 or x30 wild multiplier
• 6 free sins with a x15, x30 or x40 wild multiplier
• A random number of free spins with a random multiplier range

We like it when slots give you a choice of bonus rounds, as it allows you to decide on your own volatility. Players who would prefer to play it safe should go with 25 or 20 free spins while risk takers will want to go for 6 or 10 – or even the random option.

Still, all of the free spins options are quite generous. It’s not all that often you see 25 free spins offered initially, and even rarer that you’d get multipliers between 15x and 40x. So, there is some great winning potential available here.

5 Lions Megaways Slot Review

5 Lions Megaways is a great makeover of the original, although the two games are quite similar. The only real difference is that one has Megaways and one doesn’t.

Could Do With Some More Features

What would have been great is if Pragmatic Play took that same approach with its 5 Lions Megaways as it did with The Dog House Megaways. That Megaways makeover was a big hit because it was similar to the original game but also had enough differences to really be an upgraded version.

Perfect, If You Loved the Original 5 Lions

Of course, if you were a big fan of the original slot, then you’re certainly going to love this game. It really is a supercharged 5 Lions slot game with an only slightly higher top prize than the original (5000x compared to 3520x).
