Fruity Megaways Slot Review

You can’t find a much more self-explanatory title for a video slot than Fruity Megaways. It has lots of fruit filling its six reels, and Megaways mechanics shift the 7 rows so the ways to win can vary. When they’re all in play, there are 117,649 of them. That’s more complexity than fruit machine slots traditionally display, especially with the addition of multiple bonus features. It just shows that Megaways can have any theme, like the Cleopatra Megaways online slot.

Smile!

Fruit machines are generally the most traditional kind of slots, often using retro graphics for nostalgic effect. The Fruity Megaways slot is different. We’ll still call it a fruit machine because every symbol is a piece of fruit, but there are no classic 7s, stars and bars. What really sets it apart is that these juicy icons have a humanising touch. Each has its own facial expression, with eyes and a smile, turning them from symbols into characters - and friendly ones at that.

Take a Sip

There are other slots that tend to feature fruit prominently, and they're generally set on tropical islands or in verdant jungles. The Fruity Megaways slot isn’t based in one of these locations. There are hills and a lake (with some happily bathing bananas, a phrase we never thought we’d use), but the only foliage is some massive green pineapples. What does go with the tropical holiday idea is some very fruity-looking drinks, plus music suited for walking in nature rather than traditional slot noises.

Fruity Megaways RTP and Variance

The RTP of the Fruity Megaways slot is 96.06%, although it may vary in some casinos. The variance is medium to high.

How to Play Fruity Megaways

When picking your slots also means picking your fruit:

1. As with other slots we’ve covered, what’s not explained in our Fruity Megaways slot review can be found in the paytable (click the trophy) or the help page (in the menu).
2. Settings are also in the menu, including sound effects, background music, help screen on loading, coin display, switch control side and space bar to spin.
3. Do you have a budget? Are you keeping an eye on your balance display? You’ll need them before clicking the coins and opening the bet adjustor.
4. Lower is safer with betting, but you’re the one who decides. Just be sensible when hitting those plus and minus signs. There’s a 0.1 minimum.
5. Now, what you probably want is to find some winning symbols, which means it's time to hit the spin button. Of course, you have no control over where the reels land and are never guaranteed a win.
6. Stick to your limits, and play responsibly.

How to Win at Fruity Megaways

Megaways slots don’t restrict you to a handful of paylines. They tend to be more expansive in format, with 6 reels instead of the traditional 5. They also don’t have a fixed layout. Yes, the Fruity Megaways slot can have 117,649 ways to win, but not always. It depends on how many of the 7 rows are active.

What doesn’t change from other slots is the search for matching symbols - at least 3 of them. There are 8 paying fruits, plus 2 special symbols, a wild and a scatter. Scatters trigger free spins. Any win will be followed by the tumble feature.

Top Wins

• What exactly is the payout potential of all those different combinations of symbols? Let’s take a look at the paytable.
• You’ll see four low-value fruits, three mid-value fruits, and one high-value rainbow-coloured raspberry, with a win multiplier of x50 for six of a kind.
• There’s no win multiplier for the wild or scatter symbol; they’re just there for their special functions.
• The max win is x5000.

Fruity Megaways Bonuses

Fruit machine slots don’t traditionally have many features, but Fruity Megaways isn’t exactly a traditional fruit machine. Every win activates the cascading symbols, and if you’re really lucky, you’ll find a way to trigger the pick me or free spins bonus.

Tumbles

They call them tumbles, but other slots call them cascades or avalanches. After every successful spin in the base game, winning symbols disappear. This leaves gaps in the reels, and new symbols will tumble to replace them. Some may even make a new combination.

Pick Me

You’re lucky to find one tumble, but if the reels are exceptionally in your favour, you could theoretically find 5 in a row. That would enter you into the pick me bonus, where you have to choose one of 5 fruits. Possible prizes include 10 free spins or a total win boost of a 5x, 10x, 15x or 20x multiplier.

Free Spins

The number of free spins depends on how many times you find the scatter symbol:

• 3 scatters = 10 free spins
• 4 scatters = 15 free spins
• 5 scatters = 20 free spins
• 6 scatters = 25 free spins

At the end of free spins, you can be awarded a prize from the bonus builder, which grows every time you achieve 5 or more tumbles.

Max-win 5,000x

Fruity Megaways Review Summary

Like most Megaways slots, Fruity Megaways has an expansive layout with an eye-catching number of ways to win, but keep in mind that having more ways can never guarantee you payouts. What Fruity Megaways does not resemble is the stereotypical fruit machine, both because of the style of the graphics and because of the multiple Fruity Megaways bonus features. It’s an interesting example of an Irondog Studios free slot.
