Extreme Megaways - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction 

We love a Megaways slot and who wouldn’t want to play a game promising Extreme Megaways? With its smoking hot volatility there are some big rewards on offer in this Stakelogic demo slots game but you’ll need extreme luck to land them.

The most intriguing feature here is the horizontal Bonus Reel with its 5 modifiers and the unusual reel layout that can spin up 117649 ways to win. But the real action is in the free spins feature with the active Bonus Reel and progressive multipliers that really kick up the prize potential.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Extreme Megaways is like the offsrping of Stake Logic’s Black Gold Megaways slots and Starburst. The problem is that the idea promises much but the game doesn’t really deliver. That’s largely to do with the visuals that are static and bland with hunks of colourful space rock sharing the reels with fruity symbols like cherries, bells and bars.

Thoughtfully, the game loads with the sounds muted. Not that there’s anything wrong with the generic spacey electronica but it’s nice to have the option not to listen. The well laid out player interface means it’s easy to unmute and set your other game preferences. 

Extreme Megaways RTP and Variance

Extreme Megaways offers players high volatility and 95.62% RTP plus a shot at landing that 50,000x top prize.

Extreme Megaways Bonus Features & Free Spins

Cascading Reels

This feature triggers with every win and will be familiar to players of Megaways slots like the classic Diamond Mine Megaways slot. After every winning spin, all winning symbols explode out of the grid and are replaced with new ones that drop into their place. This occurs until no more wins are possible.

Bonus Reel

This reel sits horizontally on top of the game reels and features 5 game modifiers:

Random Wilds drop on reels 2 to 6.
Multiplier Wilds of at least 2x randomly appear on reels 2 to 5.
Destroyer blows up all symbols and the grid fills with a new cascade.
Mystery drops mystery transforming symbols anywhere on the grid.
Dropping Wilds appear on reels 2 to 5 and drop one place down the reel with each spin until they drop off the reels completely.

Free Spins

Land 4, 5 or 6 scatters to trigger 5, 7 or 10 free games in the free spins bonus. You can opt to use the wheel of fortune to gamble up to a total 14 spins.

Free spins feature a progressive multiplier starting at 2x that ratchets up by 1x for every win but doesn’t reset if there’s a blank spin. Each free spin gets a Bonus Reel modifier and you can retrigger up to 15 extra spins by landing more scatters. 

Buy Feature

Click the Buy Bonus button to buy 5 free spins for 100x your stake. You can gamble for additional spins but you might lose the lot.

Extreme Megaways Review: Our Verdict

There are some big rewards in Extreme Megaways but that high volatility means they’re often outweighed by the risks. The Bonus Reel is incredibly stingy and many players will be tempted to Buy Feature just to see some action. Extreme Megaways definitely flatters to deceive.
