1 million fortunes megaways slot theme, stakes, pays & symbols

The title of 1 Million Fortunes Megaways sounds generic and ambiguous – but for those eagle-eyed players and perhaps the Megaways Slots fanatics amongst you, you'll quickly realise that this is the follow-on to Iron Dog Studios' first Megaways hit 1 Million Megaways BC. As soon as you finish loading up the game, you are left with no doubt about the theme the provider has chosen. However – this is a Far Eastern-themed online slot. It’s a theme that has proven very successful for many other slot developers – Koi Princess, Shaolin Spin, and Mandarin Fortune are just a handful of popular games that share this theme, with new ones appearing every month. The graphics are hugely detailed - a positive thing - but I did find that the level of detail meant that the game looked much better on a large-format display rather than on a tablet or smartphone.

The paytable for the 1 Million Fortunes Megaways video slot is part of the question mark menu linked in the screen's bottom-left corner. I mention this because I imagine some players looking for it in the regular hamburger menu linked in the top-left instead. That’s just a minor niggle, of course, but bigger surprises can be found once you begin to look at the paytable. The highest-paying symbol is a golden phoenix, and the payout seems extremely high at 14x your bet for the maximum seven-of-a-kind combination. The longboat returns 10x for a maximum combo of seven, whilst the … I’m not sure if it’s a dragon or a turtle, does that sound ridiculous? Umm, the golden-green animal pays 8x your bet for all seven, followed by the three gold coins at 60x and the orchid at 4x. All those numbers seem high to me for a Megaways game, and then I realised – there are only six reels!

It turns out that all of the aforementioned wins can only be scored during the bonus round, where a new seventh reel is inserted in the middle of the screen. During the base game, the winnings for many of these symbols are considerably smaller. The top two of the bunch, the golden phoenix and longboat, still pay 10x and 7x for six-of-a-kind, respectively, but the other three high-paying symbols all drop down to just 2x rather than the 8x/6x/4x that they can potentially award during the bonus round.

Setting your stake is, thankfully, nice and straightforward. The minimum bet is set at €0.20 per spin, a low-roller-friendly number that is undoubtedly as low as the developer could go for a game with so many pay ways. The maximum allowed wager is set at €50.00 per spin, and for a game as high-variance as this one, you would have to be seriously crazy (or rich) to ever consider betting this high.

base game & MODIFIERS

Let’s talk about the base game some more, as that is where you will spend most of your time playing 1 Million Fortunes Megaways online slot. Unless you prefer – and are allowed – to utilise the bonus buy facility, of course! The base game uses six reels, each of which will automatically divide into between two and seven segments at the start of each spin.

This varying number of rows on each reel means that you can potentially have as few as 64 pay ways or as many as 117,649. Wins are awarded for hitting either two (the very high-paying symbols) or three matching symbols from left to right, and all symbols can appear stacked, allowing you to win on many pay ways simultaneously.

Any winning combination that lands on the reels will be immediately removed before winnings are paid. After that happens, the remaining symbols will drop and allow new ones to fall in from the top of the screen. This is often referred to as “cascading reels” or “rolling reels”, but 1 Million Fortunes Megaways takes things further by adding in a multiplier that increases with each successive winning combination. 

After your first win, the multiplier will increase to x2, followed by x4, x6, and then x8. After you hit the 8x multiplier, the game switches to awarding a bonus round instead – see the next section for details.

1 million fortunes megaways slot free spins feature

On your fifth consecutive win, you will be awarded eight free spins, but if the wins keep coming, you can potentially receive a maximum of 14 free spins. This means there is no need for any scatter symbols in this game, which is probably a good thing – most Megaways slots have no payoff for the scatter symbols anyway, and omitting them removes the possibility of a scatter blocking other potential wins.

The free spins feature sounds a lot like the one offered by other Megaways slots at first, but once you play 1 Million Fortunes online slot, you will soon notice the huge differences. First of all, when the free spins feature begins, the reels will split in half down the middle of the screen, and a new “mammoth reel”  will be inserted between reels three and four. Any time a winning combination lands during free spins, the game will add 1x to the ascending multiplier, which is carried over for the duration of your bonus round.

If a reel divides into the maximum of seven rows during free spins, then the game will highlight the reel, and it will become locked, ensuring that seven symbols will appear on that reel for the remainder of your bonus round. Any time a reel becomes locked, you will have one more free spin added to the remaining counter.

If the mammoth reel divides into the maximum of nine rows, then it too will become locked. If this happens, the game will add five more free spins to your remaining counter and force this reel to show nine symbols for the remainder of the bonus round. A sticky wild will also be added to the bottom of the mammoth reel, which will help you to hit five, six, and seven-of-a-kind combinations.

The combined effect of these features means you tend to win much more towards the end of each bonus round. In the beginning, you may see lots of dead spins go by, but towards the end, you will sometimes find yourself winning more than 100x your bet on every spin!
