The Mega Fortune slots game is a progressive jackpot-themed video slot created by NetEnt. The game was first released in 2011, but it has seen several updates and revamps over the years. One of these revisions took place in 2020 when NetEnt revamped the original to create "Mega Fortune Spins". This Megaslot online casino version combines elements from both games while adding a new set of features that aim to attract more players.
Design and Theme
One of the most distinctive aspects of Mega Fortune Spins is its design. The game’s background visuals represent a glamorous casino floor with rows of poker tables, roulette wheels, and high-rollers playing baccarat or blackjack. In front of this scene, there are five reels of different symbols – 15 in total – which are either classic fruit icons (cherries, oranges, watermelons) or single-digit number values from one to ten.
Symbols
The low-paying symbols consist of the standard slot machine fruits and a ‘Seven’ wild symbol. The high-value symbols include four characters: Jackpot Max (a billionaire), Jackpot King (king-sized treasure hunter), Jack’s Sister (female aristocrat), and Jack (male protagonist) – all dressed in expensive suits or gowns, reflecting their wealth.
The number of symbols changes with each spin as the reels have three different layouts that give you between 3 to 5 active rows. The ‘Seven’ is a wild symbol used here to help players form winning combinations by substituting other icons except the scatter ones. There’s also an Autoplay feature allowing up to 1000 rounds per go, and users can quickly resume the round if interrupted.
Payouts
While it would be interesting to see more detailed statistics in later years – specifically on volatility – there are only a few payout details that one could derive from older Mega Fortune reviews. However, given its new release and some of these general facts (and since NetEnt wouldn’t want their games overly volatile) here’s what you might expect:
- Each symbol contributes differently to winnings:
- Fruits yield 1-15 times bet per line
- ‘Seven’ is worth 10x to 50x bet for a combination in any position, but when playing on a three-row grid and at the maximum stakes it pays as high as 1250 credits or $31.
- The higher-paying character symbols will provide more – especially if you’re lucky enough to hit them while they occupy full lines.
Wilds
The game also offers one type of special icon called the Jackpot symbol (or scatter) that plays a key role in triggering its biggest prize. Unlike other versions, Mega Fortune Spins includes two wild options here: ‘Seven’ – used for substitution and line combinations; and its ‘Jackpot Max’, which only appears on reels three to five during certain bonus rounds.
Scatters
The Jackpot scatter can trigger an entire new round from a win (though this isn’t possible after activation via the base game) – by either matching it across adjacent or middle spaces anywhere on any line when there’s no winning combination and without activating multiple, separate wins per row like what normally happens.
Bonus Features
Mega Fortune Spins features several special characteristics. Upon triggering its bonus round using 5 (not less!) Jackpots that form an all-important win the highest-value reel turns wild, while also providing multipliers applied across adjacent winning combinations in addition to those from each single successful line and up-to x20 bet multiplier that gets applied throughout.
Free Spins
In terms of these ‘spins’ they are actually triggered through various different means:
- Progressive Jackpot: wins one – or any other (from $10,000 – $1M or more) – with a single spin that includes 5 scatter on consecutive reels while wagering maximum.
- Classic Free Spins round triggered when landing five specific symbols in an all-in sequence. Once activated users can pick one of four character rewards featuring 3 options each: Jack’s Sister ($250-$1000), the Jackpot King (winning up to $50000), or finally a ‘Seven’, allowing either winning combinations to have between x5 and x10 multipliers applied upon landing.
RTP
The theoretical return-to-player (RTP) percentage of Megaslot Casino games isn’t explicitly listed. It’s understandable since RTPs usually fluctuate, with NetEnt slot machine game payout rates – released as 96% on the progressive titles and over a million euro jackpots available to win via free-spins.
Volatility
The overall variance for this particular title is somewhat of an unknown quantity given how it appears not fully clear what its ‘volatility level’ stands at (i.e., high, medium or low).
However some early users have spoken about experiencing – in the words they use – "regular wins" with smaller rewards occurring regularly due to combination multipliers.
Betting Range
This is where we consider a little less common for casino slot game. At least compared with those usually offered these days it starts at 25c and goes up as high as $250, making maximum stakes bet here equaling ten times the amount set in "Auto Play" mode that gives players an ability to have rounds going without interruptions by means of multiple buttons found along top panel.
Max Win
According to this Megaslot casino information, a player could potentially win more than 1 million EUR when it comes to these slots games through combination wins – just remember they’re progressive jackpots with one being won every now and then (though much higher values have reportedly come in – like a $9M win).
