Who Wants To Be A Millionaire MegaWays Slot

Graphics

Fans of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire will instantly recognise the background that this slot presents.

The blue lights, the audience seats and the daunting circle in the middle where presenter and contestant sit to play their way towards a life-changing sum.

Perhaps because the show is so popular around the world, Big Time Gaming couldn’t settle on just one TV presenter to use as an icon. Instead, we get the traditional card values, Nine to Ace appearing as the lower value symbols.

The high payers are made up of different coloured gemstones – Blue, Red, Green, while the Purple Diamond is the real gem. In fact, it pays out 50 times our stake when it appears in a six symbol combination.

Gameplay

This slot is built on Big Time Gaming’s MegaWays game engine in similar vein as another BTG Megaways hit slot, Diamond Mine, which means we get six reels and up to 117,649 Ways to Win.

Each spin can see us benefit from a number of reel changes, cascading symbols, Wild substitutions and bonus rounds, which makes each spin on the base game an exciting experience. It’s like knowing we’re getting a question right each time.

The Millionaire logo triggers Free Spins when it appears three times or more, giving us up to eight Free Spins. And in keeping with the game, we can gamble and try to increase the number of spins we get, by picking an option from A, B, C or D.

Just like the show, we can use the lifelines to help get the correct answer. Asking the Audience gives us a likely percentage of right answers; 50/50 reduces it to two answers; and Phone a Friend gives us the most likely answer.

We have twelve levels on the Free Spins ladder to work our way up to. The second and seventh rungs are our safe points – guaranteeing us 10 or 20 Free Spins. Make it to the top and we snag the big prize - 50 free spins.

Verdict

Multipliers, re-triggered spins and the whopping amount of paylines means we have plenty of chances to win big.

As you would hope and expect from a Who Wants to be a Millionaire themed slot. Never mind that you can’t actually become a millionaire from playing this slot.

Unless we scoop the 500,000 jackpot on offer on this game twice in a row. Still, at least we can bag half a mill without having to answer any general knowledge questions. Mega? Always!
