Stargate Megaways Pokie Review

Stargate Megaways offers a variety of features. The base game comes with cascading reels and the Trail, which awards modifiers and free spins. The more successive cascades you accomplish, the more rewarding the modifiers get.

The central attraction is the Bonus Game which delivers free spins and loads of modifiers. If you are not prepared to wait for free spins to trigger regularly, you can always use the Buy Pass feature and buy freebies.

Cascading Reels & Trail

On each win, successful icons are removed, with new symbols appearing thanks to cascading reels. Hence, you may have a chance to hit multiple wins in a single spin. Also, each winning cascade influences the Trail.

With every win, the Trail goes up by 1 field. The Trail consists of 9 fields in total, so up to 9 successive cascades are possible.

When you reach the 5th field, you trigger random modifiers. They include up to 6 random Wilds on reels 2 to 5, expanding reels, Wild Reels and up to 10 Mystery symbols which reveal the same icon. Finally, the Regenerate feature can trigger and clear the entire grid, granting a free respin.

My favourites here are random Wilds. I always get a tasty win when I get the Random Wilds modifier.

Bonus Game

When you reach fields 7, 8, or 9, you trigger the Bonus Game feature. Depending on the field you reach, you can get 5, 6, or 7 free spins, respectively. Also, you get 7 picks to open 15 doors. Behind these doors, you can find up to 7 modifiers, but not all of the doors hide treats.

Among the modifiers, you will find up to 25 additional free spins, various win multipliers applied on all free spin wins, additional Wilds, Expanding Wilds, cash prizes, and Eye of Ra Scatter, which resets the number of free spins.

It was not easy to trigger the Bonus Game feature. It took me over 100 spins to do it. When I got in, I received 10 additional free spins, a 2x win multiplier, and Expanding Wilds as modifiers. This secured me a delicious win of 550x the bet.

My favourite modifier is Expanding Wild, especially when it appears on the 2nd reel. It brought me so much luck.

Buy Pass feature

The Buy Pass feature offers four options. For 31.50x the bet, you can reach Tier 5 (field 5) on the Trail. It will bring you some of the modifiers and a chance to trigger free spins. For 45.50x, 72.50x, or 123.50x the bet, you will reach Tier 7, Tier 8, or Tier 9, respectively.

This will make it easier for you to reach free spins and modifiers. However, I do not feel that this is what you should spend your money on. I tried all four Buy Pass options and none of them proved to be worth the money I invested.

The biggest reward I got was 27.50x when I paid 123.50x the bet to reach Tier 9. This could not be called a good investment, eh?
