ANUBIS WILD MEGAWAYS™ DEMO

Anubis Wild Megaways™ is a 6 reel slot from Inspired that features the Megaways™ gaming engine. This popular reel modifying mechanic is under license from Australian slot developer BTG, and through the use of Megaways™, Anubis Wild Megaways™ has the potential to generate up to 117,649 ways to win with any spin of the reels.

Staking options see the minimum bet on this slot start at €0.20 a spin, with those who like to high roll having the option to play at up to €20. As you would expect from a Megaways™ title, there are a good selection of bet sizes to play at from €2 down to the minimum stake, making the game accessible to those with all sized playing budgets.

Inspired opted to use the cascading reels feature in their first Megaways™ release which was named Desperado Megaways™, and they have decided to use the well liked reel mechanic once again in Anubis Wild Megaways™. We will just point out that it is very common among those Megaways™ games that have a 117,649 payline set up, to also incorporate cascading reels. 

For those who are new to this mechanic, each time you hit a winning combination of symbols on the reels, those symbols will be removed from. New symbols will then drop down, or roll in on the upper reel to fill the voids that have been left behind. Several of these cascades can take place and will they will only end once no further winning connections can be made.

Historically on a Megaways™ Slot an all of the ways spin where it rolls in the 117,649 ways to win in the base game can be a good chance to hit a substantial return on your stake. Multiple reel cascades with this amount of Megaways™ in play can easily pay in excess of 200-300x bet. 

Triggering the free spin feature on Anubis Wild Megaways™ will require you to land 3 or more of the bonus scatter symbols anywhere in view. Hitting a 3 scatter trigger will award you with 12 free spins, and each subsequent scatter that lands thereafter will add an additional 2 extra spins to your total.

Before the free spin feature begins you are offered the opportunity to earn some more spins through the  " Top Up " which is basically just a gamble option similar to Extra Chill, or Diamond Mine Extra Gold. Successfully landing in the green section during the pie gamble will increase your current spin total, whilst landing in the red section will spell the end of your feature with a mystery cash prize being awarded to you. 

As the free spin feature begins eagle eyed players will note the comparisons between this bonus and the Jail House free spins bonus that Inspired used on Desperado Megaways™. There are however a couple of changes to the bonus round on Anubis Wild Megaways™ that we will now look at.

Firstly the upper reel is removed from the game during the free spins, and with its removal that also means there is no cascading reels in the bonus, or an unlimited multiplier. What you are hoping for just as with the Jail House spins is for as many of the wild symbols to land on the reels as possible

Every time a wild symbol lands it will become sticky and drop to the bottom position of the the reel, as well as locking in the amount of Megaways™ for the particular reel it has landed on. The next time a wild lands on the same reel it will again drop to the bottom and merge with the previous wild to cover two symbol positions, as well as increasing in value to x2.

This will continue each time a wild lands on the same reel, with the multiplier increasing until finally the reel is covered, if this happens then you will have initiated the re-trigger and you will be awarded a spin for each position that is covered on that reel by the merged wilds.

Anubis Wild Megaways™ features the mystery symbol and this can be a good way to get yourself a few additional wins whilst playing. During any spin the mystery symbol can land in a number of positions on the reels, once the spin has ended they will the all transform into the same randomly chosen symbol from the paytable.

The spin chance feature will be automatically triggered on Anubis Wild Megaways™ if your playing balance is reduced beyond the current stake size, but remains above zero. Choosing to try your luck at the spin chance feature will require you to land the pointer in the green section of the pie, if successful you will receive one final spin at the bet size you had just been playing at.

After the relative success of Desperado Megaways™ it would seem that Inspired have taken the feedback from that game onboard and refined their offering in the shape of Anubis Wild Megaways™.

The decision to remove the cascading reels and unlimited multiplier in the bonus round was a bold move for a slot like this, but one that ultimately pays off. With the nature of how the wilds stack and increase in multiplying value, it's clear to see that there is plenty of paying potential in this game, which leads to exciting and entertaining features.

This in our opinion is certainly a step in the right direction for Inspired and we look forward to seeing what they bring to the Megaways™ market next.
