Bonanza Megaways

About Bonanza Megaways

Bonanza Megaways is the Big Time Gaming slot that introduced the Megaways mechanic in 2016. Set in a gold mine, it runs on 6 reels where each reel can show 2 to 7 symbols per spin, giving up to 117,649 ways to win. A row of mine carts sits above the middle four reels and adds extra symbols.

Wins trigger Reactions, BTG's name for cascading reels, and the Free Spins round carries a win multiplier with no upper limit. RTP is 96.00% and the game is high volatility, with a maximum win of 26,000x your stake.

How to Play Bonanza Megaways

Set your stake and spin. Wins come from matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost reel, and the number of ways changes every spin depending on how many symbols land on each reel. The carts above reels 2 to 5 add one more symbol to each of those reels.

When you win, the winning symbols explode and new ones fall in from above, with the carts refilling from the right. This can lead to several wins from one spin. Four GOLD Scatters, one for each letter, trigger Free Spins. Stakes at Midnite start from £0.20 per spin.

Bonanza Megaways Theme and Symbols

The reels sit in a mine shaft in a mountain valley, with wooden supports, mine carts and sticks of dynamite setting the scene. Big Time Gaming kept the art bright and simple so the shifting reel heights stay easy to follow.

Card symbols from 9 to A make up the lower-paying set. Above them are four gems in different colours, with the top gem paying the most. The dynamite Wild and the GOLD Scatter letters complete the symbol set.
