1 Million Megaways BC Slot

1 Million Megaways BC slot is a promising new August 2020 release from Iron Dog Studios, who have recently created some excellent slot games, standing out from the crowd and providing players with various exciting new slots to try out. 1 Million Megaways BC is no exception to this, with an interesting take on the Megaways engine and a solid design it looks set to be a winner. Read the full 1 Million Megaways BC slot review below to see just what the bonus features are and for the full lowdown on the stats.

How it Pays and Plays

Starting off with 6 reels and the standard 117,649 ways to win you get to access to million plus Megaways when you trigger the bonus round as this adds an extra reel, upping the ways to win to 1,058,841. 

The RTP is a pretty much standard 96.2% whilst it’s also a pretty highly volatile slot as you would imagine when you see that the max win potential is stated at 45,000x. 

Stakes range from the standard 20p/cents up to £/$/€20. So it’s not really aimed at the highest of rollers but that max win potential of 45,000x might still entice anyone, regardless of bank balance, to try out the 1 Million Megaways BC slot.

Cascading reels are also used in this slot, with a 2x multiplier attached to each new win formed, this is also how you trigger the free spins as there is an absence of Scatter symbols. 

Symbols and Graphics

Set on a snowy mountainous background with cave dwellings for the cavemen just visible during the base game. Once the free spins bonus is reached the skies brighten up and the snow melts to leave you with a greener looking mountain background, though there are still some fires lit outside the caves, for cooking of perhaps it’s just cold, who knows and it doesn’t really matter! 

You’ll see that the lower paying symbols include the Ace down to 10 playing card structure. 

Premium symbols include a sabre toothed tiger, a deer, a woolly mammoth, a cavewoman and finally a caveman. 

The Wild symbol is a WILD encased in an ice block. There is no Scatter symbols.

Free Spins Bonus

The way to trigger the free spins bonus is to get 4 or more cascading wins on any single spins. One you do this you will recieve an initial 8 spins, however, you can start the bonus round with up to 14 free spins. Each extra cascading win after the 4th win will give you 2 more free spins up to the maximum of 14. 

One the bonus round begins you’ll see that the 7th reel has been added. This comes in the form of a Mammoth Reel. It will be located in the middle of the reels and will have 4 to 9 rows on it, as opposed to the other reels which will have 2 to 7 rows. This is what ups the ways to win to a potential maximum of 1,058,841 and is where 1 Million Megaways BC gets its name from. 

If, during the free spins, any given reel get 7 rows on it then that will lock in place and each extra free spin will see that reel keep 7 rows on it. You’ll also get an extra free spin added.

If you get the Mammoth Reel having 9 rows on it that will also lock in for the duration of the free spins bonus, you’ll also get a nice 5 extra free spins added. 

Sticky Wilds are also possible on the Mammoth Reel and will remain there during the entire bonus if you get them.

Cascading wins also increase the multiplier by 1x with each winning spin. This is where you can really start to rack up the big wins. 

Bonus Buy Option

If you’re playing from outside the UK then you will also be provided with the opportunity to buy the bonus. 6 free spins will cost you 50x your stake whilst 14 free spins will be pushing the boat out at 270x your stake. It’s a risky way to play and can drain your funds in lightning quick time but there’s also the chance of it paying off, just remember to play within your means when doing this as I have personally found it very easy to get carried away chasing a decent bonus.
