Developer launches the most extreme Megaways slot to date with an eighth reel that delivers a range of thrilling bonuses to players

Stakelogic, the award-winning developer of player favourite classic slots and modern video slots, has taken big win potential to the next level with the launch of its latest blockbuster title, Extreme^TMMegaways^TM.

Not only does Extreme^TM Megaways^TM offer up to 117,649 ways to win with every spin, the slot has been packed with additional bonus features including Free Spins, Super Stake^TM and an eighth reel that can deliver one of several bonuses for some truly extreme wins.

Free Spins are triggered when four, five or six Scatter symbols land on the reels awarding five, seven and ten Free Games respectively. A x2 Multiplier is awarded before the feature gets underway and increases by x1 for each win that lands and by x4 if the reels expand.

The Gamble Drop feature allows players to gamble their Free Spins with a maximum of 14 Free Games up for grabs. This feature is skipped if the player lands seven Scatters and unlocks the full ten Free Games. Free Spins have a max win of 50,000x the player’s original stake.

Extreme^TM Megaways^TM has an eighth reel that sits above the seventh Megaways^TM reel. There are five bonus symbols in the reel and when one of the symbols lands in the central section of the reel, the respective bonus will be awarded including:

Random Wilds – a random number of Wild symbols are added from reels two to six

Multiplier Wilds – two Multiplier Wild symbols are added from reels two to five

Destroyer – all regular symbols will be removed from reels one to six

Mystery – Random Mystery symbols are added from reels one to six and then convert into the same random symbol

Dropping Wilds – one of the reels between two and five is filled with Dropping Wilds

It would not be an Extreme^TM Megaways^TM slot if the features stopped there which is why Stakelogic has also hooked the game up to its innovative Super Stake^TM feature. This allows players to double their bet to increase the chance of triggering one of the game’s bonus features.

In Extreme^TM Megways^TM, this sees more Scatters added to the reels to improve the chance of Free Spins triggering. Players can also use the Buy the Bonus feature – in the markets where it is permitted – to enter the Free Spins bonus with five Free Games.

Finally, players can gamble their winnings by guessing the card colour or the card suit and if they guess correctly their win will be multiplied by x2 or x4 respectively.

Olga Bajela, CCO of Stakelogic, said: “This is absolutely the most Extreme Megaways^TM slot to hit the market to date.

“Not only does it offer 117,649 ways to win with every spin, but we have packed the game with a trove of features that take the big win potential to the next level.

“The eighth bonus reel is spectacular, building anticipation as players wait to see what bonus might drop onto the reels at random.

“Extreme^TM Megaways^TM sets the standard for other Megaways^TM slots to follow and we look forward to seeing it go live with our operator partners.”
