The reels are set on the clouds above Jack’s house. What I personally miss here are the soothing sounds of the magic harp that helped the giant go to sleep easier. Maybe Big Time Gaming did not want to make all players go to sleep while spinning the reels.
Jack will appear from time to time, climbing up the beanstalk or coming out of the castle. Along the way, he will collect golden eggs from clouds and share the spoils with you. I will explain this more when describing additional features.
You will be resting on a huge cloud, enjoying a lovely landscape in the background while you play the Golden Goose Megaways pokie. Everything is made of gold here. The golden harp is the top-paying regular symbol, followed by the golden treasure chest with rubies.
Even the watering can is made of gold, and so is Jack’s cowbell. Only the low-value playing cards are not golden. The bag with beans is the Wild, which appears on all reels except the first. The golden goose is the Scatter that triggers the Free Spins feature. When golden eggs appear, they move to the clouds above the reels, carrying instant wins.
Golden Goose Megaways slot is played on 6 reels. Thanks to the Megaways game engine, each reel may display up to 7 symbols. Hence, the 2024 release offers up to 117,649 ways to win. The BTG title pays left to right, beginning from the far-left reel.
You need matching symbols on at least 3 successive reels to win a payout. Only the harp pays for 2-of-a-kind. You can bet as low as $0.20 and as high as $30 per spin. Golden Goose Megaways pokie offers a 29,030x max payout and is of high variance. Golden Goose Megaways RTP is 96.44%.
I love the story of Jack and the Beanstalk because it is exciting and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Also, I love it because it comes with a happy ending. Well, not for the giant, eh? That’s why I am happy to see that BTG decided to include various additional features in the Golden Goose Megaways pokie machine.
Reactions will provide you with the possibility of multiple wins in a single spin. Golden goose Scatters will trigger the Free Spins feature. Jack acts as the Bonus Boy who collects Cloud Prizes. It is important to mention that free spins come with an unlimited cloud multiplier.
Reactions are the same as Cascading Reels. After a winning spin, the winning symbols disappear and new icons land to fill the blank cells. This will give you a chance to pocket multiple wins in a single spin. My biggest base game win was 15x.
Each time you land a golden egg, it will come with a certain instant value. When the reels stop, the egg moves to the corresponding cloud on top of the grid. The egg adds its value to the overall value of the corresponding cloud.
Jack, or the Bonus Boy, will randomly appear, climbing up the beanstalk to the castle or vice versa. During this trip, he will probably collect the entire value of 1 cloud, giving it to you, while he keeps the golden eggs. In the base game, Jack can multiply the value of the cloud up to 10x.
With 3 golden goose Scatters on the reels, you get 10 free spins. Each additional Scatter will get you 5 extra free spins. To retrigger the feature, you need 3+ Scatters. Now, the Bonus Boy comes with an increasing win multiplier.
The Cloud Prize is also active and each time the Bonus Boy collects the prize, he increases the multiplier, boosting your instant win. In free spins, the Bonus Boy can collect up to 4 clouds at once. I triggered the feature several times. The most I got was 15 free spins. Jack appeared 4 times and my total win was 61.30x.
Each time you land a win of 80x or more, you can exchange the win for 10 free spins. If your wins are between 25x and 80x, you can gamble the winnings for free spins. Since I never reached such wins in the base game, I did not test the Win Exchange option.
The Bonus Buy feature costs 80x the bet. This will get you 10 free spins. I tried the option several times and I never won more than 35x.
Jack and the Beanstalk is a popular story that was used as a theme for many cartoons, movies, video games, and pokie machines.
The BTG title houses awesome visuals. What I don’t like about the soundtrack is that it lacks soothing harp sounds.
My favourite part of the Golden Goose Megaways pokie is the Bonus Boy and the Cloud Prizes.
Jack appeared often and rewarded me with decent payouts every now and then.
Triggering free spins will not be an easy task. However, once you start the feature, you can be generously rewarded for your trouble.
I rate Golden Goose Megaways 7.5.
