Big Time Gaming introducing its brand new Megapots™ – the future of jackpots! Capable of delivering truly colossal wins with every pulse-pounding spin.
Experience the glitz and the glamour from the studio known for redefining slots in their Art Deco era of 6×7 slot called Big Bucks Deluxe – where Megapots™, Megaways™, and Mega Wins Collide!
Drenched in dazzling visuals and driven by 117,649 Megaways™, Big Bucks Deluxe invites players into a world of opulence, where shimmering Coins, soaring multipliers, and colossal jackpots keep the action at a fever pitch.
With its latest groundbreaking innovation, Megapots™ where Mini, Midi and Mega Megapots™ sit above the reels and showcase random prizes that change with every spin but can only be awarded when the Hold and Spin feature triggers. This happens when you land six or more Coins in any position. This transforms each symbol into its own reel with prizes, multipliers—or Megapots™ themselves—up for grabs.
If players collect three matching Megapots™ symbols you unlock your jackpot and if every reel reveals a Coin symbol, the Hold & Spin ends with your total bonus prize doubled for the ultimate reward – a jaw-dropping crescendo to the feature.
In the Free Spins, Coins that don’t trigger Hold and Spin stay locked for one spin, turning every spin into a slow-burn suspense thriller with sky-high reward potential. Every new Coin resets your respins, and if the entire grid fills, your total prize is doubled.
But that’s not all…
Land three or more Brilliant Golden Stags to unleash 12 dazzling Free Spins with two extra spins for every triggering Scatter beyond the three. During Free Spins, every Coin ramps up your win multiplier—limitlessly!
While the Free Spins play out, the excitement soars as the win Multiplier starts at 1x and then climbs higher with every Coin that appears. If the Hold & Spin feature isn’t triggered, each Coin stays locked in place to build anticipation for the next spin.
Of course, there’s the Bonus Buy™ to buy your way into the feature and dive straight into the action by unlocking the Hold & Spin feature for 35x your bet or unleash 12 exhilarating Free Spins for 100x your bet.
