Forgotten Island Megaways is a high volatility slot developed by Microgaming and All41 Studios and its Microgaming’s second Megaways title in collaboration with All41 Studios, with their first being Shamrock Holmes Megaways. Forgotten Island Megaways uses the Megaways configuration and comes with 6 reels and 117649 winning ways with each spin. Each reel contains up to 7 symbols on each reel randomly. It also offers top prizes of 23000x your stake, featuring excellent winning potential in both the Free Spins and base game feature.

The more symbols per reel, the more Megaways and players need to land 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from reel 1. If you land the highest value symbol, only two are required on successive reels.

It’s a beautifully designed slot with a setting deep within the jungle. If you are the type of player who enjoys nature themes, this slot is one to be added to your bucket list.

The Forgotten Island Megaways slot has an RTP of 96.25%, which is slightly above average but slightly lower than most Megaways games, typically around 96.50%. High variance players land wins in over a third of spins as it has a hit frequency of 33.66% with a maximum payout of 7000x your total stake per spin.

How to Play Forgotten Island Megaways

Forgotten Island Megaways is playable from 20p to £20 a spin, and the coin icon allows players to select their various stake options with ease. If you want to play with the Autoplay function, you can select between 10 and 100 auto-spins. In the Settings section, players can select the Quick Spin option and enable or disable sound effects.

His video slot from Microgaming and All41 Studios has high definition graphics and animations with symbols on stone slabs. The low-value symbols are A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 Royals. The higher-paying ones are lanterns, grapple hooks, gorilla skulls and treasure books. The most lucrative symbol is the gorilla skull giving players 1, 2, 10, 25 or 50x stake when they land 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 in combination.

There is a compass wild, and this symbol substitutes for all other symbols except the scatters. As with other Megaways slots, the wilds only appear on the extra reel at the very top. Kong is the Scatter symbol, and landing 4 Kong scatters activates the Free Spins Round.

Forgotten Island Megaways uses HTML5 technology, which means it is playable on mobile, tablet and desktop devices. Moreover, the quality of the graphics is as good on smaller screens as on desktops.

Forgotten Island Megaways Features

There are three Bonus Features in Forgotten Island Megaways. The Rolling Reels are for continuous wins, Free Re-Spins with a specified number of guaranteed Megaways and Free Spins with an unlimited increasing Multiplier.

Rolling Reels Feature

In Forgotten Island Megaways, each winning combo formed triggers the Rolling Reels Feature. Winning symbols are immediately removed and replaced by new symbols, which can lead to consecutive wins. The rolls only stop when no more wins get created. The Rolling Reels feature is available in the base game and Free Spins Feature.

King Spin Feature

Every winning combination formed can wake up Kong and trigger the mighty Kong Spin Feature. The feature gets triggered randomly in the base game only, and Kong gives players multipliers of 2x, 3x, 5x or 10x their stake. Each consecutive Rolling Reels win increases the multiplier by 1, and there is no limit to how high the multiplier goes. The more consecutive wins players get, the bigger the multipliers.

Free Spins Feature

Landing 4 Kong Scatter symbols activate the Free Spins feature, with players receiving 10 Free Spins. An extra Scatter adds two more Free Spins to your starting tally.  Should you trigger 6 Scatters, you start with 14 Free Spins. You now start with a 2x multiplier which each new win increasing the multiplier by 1. With the multiplier being unlimited, 3 to 4 scatters landing on a Free Spin will give you 3 or 4 additional Free Spins again with no limits.

You also have the option to buy your way into the Free Spins feature. It is available in most countries, but the UK gets excluded due to regulations from the Gambling Commission. The cost of buying in is as follows:

• 10 Free Spins with a 2x multiplier -80x stake
• 10 Free Spins with a 3x and 5x multiplier- 120x stake
• 10 Free Spins with 5 or 10x multiplier- 150x stake

The Verdict

Forgotten Island Megaways is an excellent looking video slot and, as previously mentioned, the second effort from All41 Studios and Microgaming. The randomly triggered Kong Spin feature gives players a multiplier of up to 10x their stake. The max win is a 7000x stake per spin, 4x lower than the maximum win in Shamrock Holmes Megaways. There is nothing new on the features front, but the Free Spins and multipliers in the base game are where the big wins lie. Wake up the mighty Kong and reel your way to plenty of consecutive wins in this high variance slot with an RTP of 96.25%
