Heroes Hunt Megaways

A Quest for Treasures Review

Embark on a quest to face a fearsome Dragon and discover hidden riches. Released in April 2020, this fantasy-themed slot features reel modifiers, free spins, and a substantial jackpot. The game draws inspiration from role-playing games and delivers high volatility action.

This release includes the Megaways mechanic, offering 64 to 46 656 ways to win on a 6x6 grid. Each reel can display 2 to 6 symbols, varying the number of ways to win on each spin. Removing blocker symbols exposes regular game symbols, creating more Megaways. The game also includes cascading reels where winning combinations are removed and replaced by new ones, potentially triggering a sequence of wins from one spin.

At the start of the game, players choose one of three characters, each representing a unique reel modifying feature:

• Character 1 - Explosion Feature: When the Explosion symbol lands, it removes itself, non-winning symbols, and blocker symbols in an area around it.
• Character 2 - Expanding Wild Feature: When the Expanding Wild symbol lands, it covers the entire reel, and awards a random multiplier.
• Character 3 - Respin Feature: When the Respin symbol lands, it removes itself and random non-winning symbols or blocker symbols, replacing them with new symbols.

After unlocking one character, the others can be unlocked during gameplay by collecting Experience Points (EXP). Experience Points are collected when the Chest symbol lands on the reels.

When all 3 heroes are unlocked, the Key Symbol can appear, collecting 3 Key Symbols will trigger the Dragon Free Spins.

Game Symbols

Wins occur when 3 or more identical symbols land on consecutive reels from left to right. This game offers 64 to 46 656 ways to win on a 6x6 grid, and destroying blocker symbols increases the number of ways to win. The Dragon along with our three heroes are high paying symbols, while the gems are low-paying symbols. The Chest symbol can award Experience Points or Free Spins. The Key symbol will only appear when all three heroes are unlocked. Collecting three Key Symbols triggers the Dragon Free Spins.

The payout values for 6 symbols in a winning combination are as follows:

• Dragon - 20x bet
• Character 2 - 10x bet
• Character 1 - 8x bet
• Character 3 - 6x bet
• Crown - 4x bet
• Coin - 4x bet
• Green Gem - 2.5x bet
• Purple Gem - 2x bet
• Light Blue Gem - 1.25x bet
• Dark Blue Gem - 1x bet

If the modifier symbols land on reels 2-5, the corresponding character will be triggered if unlocked.

Free Spins

When all three characters are unlocked, Key symbols will appear. Collecting 3 will activate the Dragon Free Spins. During the Dragon Free Spins, Dragon symbols can appear on reels 1 to 6. For each Dragon Symbol destroyed, 1 additional free spin is awarded.

The Chest symbol can also award Free Spins. This Bonus can be awarded even if characters are locked. During this Feature, all characters are unlocked, and Wild symbols can appear on reels 2 to 5.

What is the jackpot?

This is a high volatility game, with a Return To Player (RTP) of 96.26% - 96.65%. The minimum bet is 0.20 coins per spin, and peaks at 40.00 coins. The maximum jackpot is 26 000x total bet.

Verdict

This is a slot that takes its design cues from fantasy role-playing games, and will appeal to players who enjoy modern slots. Combining the Megaways mechanic with 3 unique 'hero' modifiers gives this game a fresh feel. The game is designed to get better the longer you play. With all 3 heroes unlocked, the Free Spins features offer a thrilling experience with impressive win potential (up to 26 000x). Triggering the Dragon free Spins can be a lengthy process, however there is a chance the Chest symbol could award the Free Spins at any time. This offers players a high-volatility fantasy-themed game, with features and a twist on the Megaways mechanic.
