Twin Spin Megaways Online Slot

I was watching the football at the weekend, and a player from the team I support scored – and then the goals crumbled and he got another go!

Well, OK, no that didn’t happen, but the features of Megaways games are now everywhere, including the respins feature that is probably the most popular. And my team, Leeds United, won, so I want to talk about it. But back to the Twin Spin Megaways slot game, which like a lot of Megaways titles is a remake of a popular title. This one is from NetEnt and it was released in November 2020.

Megaways are the product of Big Time Gaming, an Australian company that doesn’t have many big slots to its name but has had a massive hit with this game system. It is now licensed out to loads of other makers who remake their games with the Megaways engine.

What it means to players isn’t always that clear. Megaways games tend to be high variance, so they have bigger prizes that are awarded less often, and they tend to have bigger top prizes. The Megaways refers to lots of ways to win. Instead of standard betways these games can combine up and down big reel sets (another feature) to make upwards of 100,000 possible winning combinations at some stages of the game.

• It’s popular with players, obviously, but it’s also popular with makers, and that tends to make us think that it must be delivering something that they like, which usually means increased profits, which as you know are lost player bets.
• This game takes a very popular classic slot and adds those features to the mix.
• It’s a very good-looking and sounding title from the enormous NetEnt stable and has attractive mathematics to match its lovingly illustrated reel set and symbols.

Let’s have a look!

How to Play Twin Spin Megaways Slot

Megaways games operate much like ordinary slots as far as the player is concerned. So log on to your favourite site and load up this title and you’ll get a very familiar experience.

A six-reel set is controlled from a see-through control panel at the bottom.

Reading from the left the panel goes like this: menu toggle for options on gameplay and game documentation. Then an info control to open up the rules and paytable. Betting is controlled with a single stake controller opened via a toggle switch.

There is a central control panel with a spin button framed with a turbo and auto-spin mode. Both of these will be outlawed in the UK later in 2021. We’re then left with two information windows, a winning window, and a balanced window, before the final sound control.

Look for further controls in your game frame.

When we click on the paytable we start with 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings, and aces.

• They pay, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30, and 0.4-times stake at the bottom up to 0.20, 0.40. 0.50, and 0.60-times stake.
• Then we have cherries paying 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1-times stake. Bells pay 0.5, 0.8, 1, and 1.5-times stake.
• Bars pay 0.8, 1, 2.5, and 3-times stake. Sevens pay 1, 2, 3, and 5-times stake. Diamonds pay 2, 3, 6, and 10-times stake.

Twin Spin Megaways Slot Bonus Features

There are a lot of bonus features in this game, many of them typical of Megaways games.

The first is a twin reel feature that is particular to this series of games. At the start of each spin, two reels are chosen at random and linked for one spin. They will be identical for the length of that spin and this feature can run in the base game and the free spins round.

The twin reels always have 7 symbols in the free spins reels.

• Avalanche is the Megaways respins feature. This triggers every time there is a win. Any symbol involved in combinations that deliver prizes are removed from the reels and the symbols above fall into their spaces, bringing new symbols down onto the reels. The feature continues until there are no more wins.
• Wilds show on the 2^nd, 3^rd, 4^th, 5^th, and 6^th reels. They sub for everything except for scatters. In the free spins round the wilds can have a multiplier of 2 or 3-times. When the multiplier wilds are 2 or 3 times multipliers they add winning symbols onto the reels too.
• Free spins are triggered via scatters. Five scatters trigger a set of 15 free spins. This can retrigger in the free spins round. Extra scatters add an extra free spin.
• The Megaways system works with different numbers of symbols on each reel. Wins are awarded not along pay lines but with symbols on adjacent reels. With the maximum number of symbols in play, this can reach 117,749 ways to win.

Twin Spin Megaways Slot - The Verdict

This Twin Spin Megaways slot game is a triumph.

The look is great. It’s very minimal with a blurred background of blues and rays of light. The panel at the bottom is nicely designed and very modern.

It seems that everyone does at the moment so why should you be any different.

Megaways means lots of extras almost as standard. That includes a set of six reels and different numbers of symbol slots on each reel. That also means respins in the forms of avalanches or cascades, which is an exciting way to play in our view. And there’s a nice free spins round too, starting out at 15.

Megaways also mean very big prizes, and here that means 38,000-times stake. But the variance is medium to high and the RTP (theoretical return to player) is 96.04%.

The Twin Spin Megaways slot really brings this excellent series up to date and delivers a title that players are likely to be spinning for many years to come. Well, cone to NetEnt who have been rewarded with a big hit with this game and a long-running series that should continue to run and run.
