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

Theme and Graphics

The ghost with the most has made his way into the online world, in the new Beetlejuice Megaways online slot from Barcrest. The game is based on the classic horror/comedy film from the 80s that starred Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin.

Barcrest has done an incredible job in bringing the kookiness of Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice into the online slots market. The game has a mischievous but spooky soundtrack, and colourful look.

RTP and Variance

The return to player (RTP) of Beetlejuice Megaways is an even 96%. It’s also between medium and high volatility. So, you’ll cash in on prizes more often than in a high volatility game, but the payout may not be hugely generous.

How to Play

Four simple steps to get you started:

• 1. Once the game is loaded click '?' to check out payable (payouts adjusted to your bet amount)
   
• 2. Press the '- '& '+' buttons to adjust your total bet size.
   
• 3. Choose a number of autospins (along with stops on win and loss amounts) if you want to.
   
• 4. Click 'Play' and hope from the best!

When you start playing Beetlejuice Megaways, five reels can accommodate between 2 and 6 symbols each, as is the case in most Megaways slots. When you hit a win, the top half of the reels are uncovered, and each one can show up to 12 symbols. As such, a total of 248,832 winning ways can be activated.

You can wager between .10 coins and 50 coins per spin, making this slot ideal for both high roller and penny slots players. There is an autoplay function, where you can set loss and win limits, but there is no quick-play option speed up the spinning of the reels.

Payouts

To hit winning combinations while playing Beetlejuice Megaways, you have to land matching symbols on adjacent reels. Once you've landed a win, the top section of the reels will unlock and your number of potential winning ways will double. Cascades will also occur as you land wins, allowing you to hit multiple winning combinations on a single spin.

Free Spins and Bonuses

The mystery symbol is the first one you’ll encounter when playing Beetlejuice Megaways. It appears randomly on the reels and will transform into other symbols to help you land winning combinations.

When the scatter symbols lands on the reels three times or more, you’ll land the free spins round. The number of free spins is determined by the number of scatters:

• - 3 scatters for 8 free spins
   
• - 4 scatters for 12 free spins
   
• - 5 scatters for 16 free spins

During this bonus round, you play on the full set of reels and a multiplier is applied to all of your wins. This multiplier increases every time as cascade is triggered, and there’s no limit to how high the multiplier can climb.

Free Play

Beetlejuice Megaways can be played for free here at Slots Temple. You have 1000 free play credits to get to know this slot and try out the gameplay. We always recommend playing between 150 and 200 demo spins before deciding whether or not you’d like to play a game for real money prizes.

Overall Review

Beetlejuice has a fantastic online slots design, but it’s lacking in originality in terms of bonus features. Essentially, it’s got the same bonus setup as Diamond Mine Megaways and Irish Riches Megaways – with mystery symbols and an unlimited multiplier in the free spins round.

However, the win frequency saves this game from being boring. Because of the expanding set of reels (which expand after any win), you land wins fairly frequently – a lot more often than you would in a standard high volatility Megaways game. So, it’s not a complete bust.

Still, the source material for the slot begs for more interesting bonus features. Beetlejuice is such a wild movie that there could be more bonus games and special symbols.

Other Slots You'll Enjoy

Here are a few other slots that we can recommend trying if you've enjoyed giving the reels a spin on Beetlejuice Megaways.

Spartacus Megaways

This is one of the few other online slots that has a mechanic similar to Beetlejuice Megaways where additional winning ways are revealed by a curtain. In Spartacus Megaways, players can have up to 1 million winning ways on each spin, and there's an impressive top prize of 12,5000x.

Gems of Egypt Connecta Ways

In this ReelPlay-powered slot, there is a different number of ways to win with each spin, as fences shuffle to reveal additional symbol positions. Players have up to 961 winning ways with each spin in Gems of Egypt Connecta Ways, and a free spins bonus can be triggered with stacked symbols on offer.

The Goonies

If you were a fan of Beetlejuice growing up, you were likely part of the same generation that watched The Goonies - so this slot seems like a natural next step. It's got a lot more bonus features than Beetlejuice, even though it's not a Megaways game. With 6 bonus games and 6 base game modifiers, The Goonies slot offers up plenty of excitement as you spin the reels.
