Ali Baba's Luck Megaways - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Ali Baba’s Luck Megaways is an online slot that brings Megaways fans a new gaming experience while still appeasing fans of the original game. With expanding symbols and free spins, this game offers plenty of generous winning potential – along with an impressive top prize worth 20,336x your stake.

Theme and Graphics

Ali Baba’s Luck Megaways doesn’t really stray too far from the original game in terms of design. However, the first Ali Baba’s Luck looked fine, so there really wasn’t much need for improvement.

The game takes place in a beautiful palace with a regal gold and purple colour scheme. Symbols feature various golden treasures like vases and jewelled rings, along with a very handsome prince and beautiful princess. Overall, it’s an aesthetically pleasing game.

RTP and Variance

The RTP (Return to Player) of Ali Baba’s Luck Megaways is 96.09%. It’s also a high variance slot with a top prize worth over 20,000x.

How to Win

In Ali Baba’s Luck Megaways, players can trigger up to 15,625 winning ways, as each reel can show up to 5 symbols at once. This is a bit lower than we normally see from Megaways games, but there are quite a few bonus features in this slot that can help you land wins more frequently.

Expanding Symbols

Whenever you hit a winning combination in Ali Baba’s Luck Megaways slot, you’ll trigger the expanding symbol feature. The winning symbol lights up in the meter above the reels and, if it is involved in a winning combination on the next spin, three things will happen:

• It becomes a golden symbol
• The symbol will expand to fill the entire reel it is on
• It no longer needs to appear on adjacent reels to award a win

Free Spins

When you land three treasure chest symbols, you’ll trigger the Dream Spins round. At first, you’re taken to a prize wheel which will determine how many free spins you get – between 4 and 16.

Since golden symbols don’t need to appear on adjacent reels to pay wins, it’s possible to hit multiple wins on a single spin from different golden symbols split across the reels. It’s only a small tweak but it greatly enhances your winning potential.

Max-win 20,336x

RTP 96.09%

Overall Review

The original Ali Baba’s Luck from Red Tiger Gaming is a fun online slot in itself, and the Megaways makeover doesn’t really add all that much to the original gameplay. Sure, you get a higher RTP (96.09% vs 95.89%) and a large top win (20,336x vs 5362x) – but the gameplay is very similar in both games.

Still, the overall experience is entertaining. Even though it’s a lot like the original Ali Baba’s Luck, it’s a totally different beast to most of the Megaways games that are currently out there at the moment, so it’s worth playing if you enjoy Megaways slots but want something a bit different.
