Game Overview

Beetlejuice Megaways™ is a video slot from SG Gaming that has taken a classic 80s horror movie and brought it into the modern era with a bang via the Megaways™ gaming engine. The reel modifying mechanic that this game runs on is under license from its developer Big Time Gaming, and across its 5 reel and 12 row format the slot is capable of generating up to 248,832 ways to win.

Time a trip down memory lane with us, or indeed experience Beetlejuice for the very first time in our review of this slot. You will learn how to unlock all winning paylines through the Mighty Ways, the roll that the cascading reels feature play within the game, and get to try the slot for free in demo play.

Themed on the 1988 hit movie Beetlejuice, developers SG Gaming have set the backdrop to the game as a very spooky affair, and given that the big screen hit was indeed a cult horror, the scene is nicely set for this slot to play out in this eerie background.

Low value symbols on the game are made up of the card royals 10 through to the Ace, and pays from as low as 0.1x, up to 0.4x can be won through them. Premium paying symbols on Beetlejuice are the shrunken head, Miss Argentina, a snake, Lydia, and Beetlejuice, with a 5 of a kind win paying 0.8x, 1.2x, 1.6x, 2x, and 5x respectively.

The minimum price to play Beetlejuice is just €0.10 a spin, whilst the maximum stake goes up to a mind blowing €500 a spin. There are of course a vast amount of stake sizes to choose from within this range, and interestingly spins under €2 will be played at an RTP of 94%, whilst spins at €2 and over will increase to 96%. This is something that you would usually expect to see on a land based machine, with increased bets bringing increased payouts on those terminals.

Beetlejuice Megaways™ Cascading Reels Feature

SG Gaming have used the cascading reels feature on a number of their previous Megaways™ titles such as Raging Rhino Megaways™ for example. With the popularity of this reel mechanic, especially within the Megaways™ niche, it won’t be too much of a shock to players to see it once again included in Beetlejuice Megaways™.

Those of you who are unaware of how this feature works will notice that all symbols that are part of a winning combination will be removed from the reels, new symbols will then drop down to replace the spaces that have been left. These cascades can bring with them impressive wins, and they will continue until no further winning connections are made.

The mighty ways concept on Beetlejuice Megaways™ is interesting and can help to increase your winning ways up to 248,832. When you have achieved a win if the symbols on the top half of the reels have helped in making up that win it will open the top section of the game. In total a maximum of 12 symbols are able to appear on each reel, which in turn will generate the max Megaways™.

Beetlejuice Megaways™ Free Spin Feature

The free spin feature on Beetlejuice Megaways™ is triggered if 3 or more of the scatter symbols land anywhere in view, with the more scatter symbols that land to initiate the bonus the better. We have highlighted below how many spins you will be awarded for the corresponding trigger.

  • 3 Scatters – 8 Free Spins.
  • 4 Scatters – 12 Free Spins.
  • 5 Scatters – 16 Free Spins.

Players will be greeted with the familiar sight of an unlimited multiplier when the free spin feature begins on Beetlejuice Megaways™. This multiplier will begin with a value of x1, and each time a win lands or you successfully achieve a winning cascade, it will increase in value by a further x1. This as we all know from previous Megaways™ Slots can bring with it some huge wins if you can build a high multiplier up.

Additional free spins may be awarded through the scatter symbols once again landing anywhere in view during the bonus. The following amount of scatters will award the corresponding amount of extra free spins.

  • 3 Scatters – 4 Extra Spins.
  • 4 Scatters – 6 Extra Spins.
  • 5 Scatters – 8 Extra Spins.

Beetlejuice Megaways™ Mystery Symbol

Players of the Megaways™ will also be very aware of the mystery symbol, and would normally associate it with a title from Blueprint Gaming. That being said SG Gaming have used it previously in Rainbow Riches Megaways™, and they have opted to give it another outing in Beetlejuice Megaways™.

On this occasion the mystery symbol comes in the form of a ghost and it is able to land in any position on any of the reels. At the end of a spin if any mystery symbols have landed they will all transform into the same randomly chosen symbol from the paytable.

Beetlejuice Megaways Slot Review Final Thoughts

For a number of people ( myself included ) Beetlejuice is an iconic film and this was a Megaways™ slot that I was always looking forward to giving a try. The mighty ways feature is something a little different which is always nice to see, and when you start playing with a massive number of Megaways™ like 248,832 anything really can happen.

Overall this slot is just ok, there have now been a number of branded Megaways™ games that include Rick and Morty Megaways™ and The Expendables Megaways™, personally I would have hoped for a bit more from SG and Beetlejuice Megaways™, but it’s still a slot that is worth a try, even if it’s just for nostalgic purposes.
