Aztec Wilds Megaways Review

Building slots around Aztec temples in the Mesoamerican jungle seemingly never gets old, and Iron Dog adds another one to the pile with Aztec Wilds Megaways. It’s certainly a more robust build than the original Aztec Wilds, and the wild in question serves a different function in this follow-up. Basically, it spreads to other reels instead of filling whole reels.

Of course, you also get a larger grid with the licensed dynamic reels engine, and it can serve up 117,649 ways to win at full capacity. Tumble wins play a central part in this release as well, and sticky wilds with increasing multipliers take center stage in the unlimited progressive multiplier bonus round. The max win has been doubled, and clocks in at 12,500x your stake.

Aztec Wilds Megaways Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 2 and 10 x your stake for 6 of a kind wins, and you get a regular Wild symbol that can land on all reels except the first. All wilds step in for pay symbols to help complete wins as their basic function, and winning symbols are removed via the Tumble mechanic. This allows for indefinite extra wins per spin, as the feature goes on as long as you keep winning.

The Aztec Wild can land on reels 3 and 4 in all stages of the game, and it will generate up to 3 extra wilds on reels 2 to 5.

You need consecutive tumbles to trigger the Bonus Round, and 4, 5, 6 or 7+ tumbles in a row gives you 8, 10, 12 or 14 free spins, respectively. The win multiplier increases by +1 per tumble win during the feature, but each consecutive triggering tumble after 5 tumbles increases the starting win multiplier by +1. It can start as high as x3, at best.

If you land 4 consecutive tumble wins you get +2 extra spins, and 1 additional extra spin for each consecutive tumble after that with no upper limit.

Non-UK players, and anyone eligible, can purchase the bonus round via the Bonus Buy feature. You can get 8 free spins for 85x the stake, and 10 free spins for 115x the stake. The RTP increases to 96.3 % for both options.

Review Summary

We enjoyed the spin sound the stone symbols make in this game, but the pace came across as a bit too sluggish. This is not least the case when consecutive tumbles hit, and this may annoy the less patient punters. Some tweaks have been made since the original Aztec Wilds, and this Megaways version is overall a superior release.

Triggering the bonus round by landing consecutive tumble wins is a welcome break from the usual scatter symbols trigger, and it also makes you pay extra attention once a tumble sequence starts. Overall, there is more to this game than many run of the mill releases, and it’s well worth checking out. This is not least the case if you were a fan of the original game.

Pros

• Spreading Aztec Wilds in all stages
• FS w/ sticky increasing multiplier wilds
• Progressive win multiplier in bonus round
• Win up to 12,500x your stake

Cons

• RTP of 95.82 % (RTP ranges)
