Extra Juicy Megaways online slot was launched in February 2022 by Pragmatic Play game provider. This release is a sequel to their 2019 fruit-themed game, upgraded by BTG’s Megaways engine and more modern design backed up with a light-hearted audio. There are up to 117,649 ways to win and prizes of up to 5,000x the bet. Wins are achieved via Substituting Wilds, Tumbling Reels and a Free Spins Round with Multipliers.
The 6-reel layout supports from 2 to 7 rows, hence players can benefit from up to 117,649 winlines. Three or more icons of the same type must appear on adjacent positions starting from any reel so payouts are granted. Before spinning the reels, you should select the bet amount going from $0.20 to $100.00. If you enable the Ante Bet, the maximum you can stake rises to $125.00. Besides the possibility to choose the coin size, one can also select to place from 1 to 10 coins per line. The game continues automatically if you opt for Autoplay and will be more dynamic should you turn Quick Spin on.
Cherries, Lemons, Grapes and Kiwis award lower sums of 0.60x and 0.75x the stake for 6 matching ones. Medium-paying symbols are Oranges, Plums, Blueberries and Watermelons delivering from 1x to 2.50x your wager if 6 form a win. High-win icons with prizes of 3.75x and 6x the bet for 6 of a kind are represented with Bell and Red Seven. As for Diamond Scatter, it helps you get to the lucrative Free Spins Round.
Base game benefits greatly from the Megaways engine, but also takes advantage from the Tumbling Reels Feature in which entire reels get cleared of symbols. Icons from entire reels are removed alongside winning symbols. Since new icons drop down, you could be looking at additional win combos. Enter Free Spins by obtaining 4, 5 or 6 Scatters that grant 12, 16 and 20 freebies respectively. There could be up to 42 Scatters on the layout which could result in you getting hands on up to 108 free spins. If you’ve won up to 20 freebies, you can use the Gamble Game to try and increase this number. Once free spins begin, Scatter becomes a Multiplier with values of up to 15x. The Buy Bonus is at your disposal if you want to purchase Free Spins at the cost of 100x your current bet.
In Extra Juicy Megaways video slot the RTP of 96.42% is above the standard while volatility is high. The game is optimized for portable screens so punters can play it anytime they like.
