Game Overview

No other slot mechanic has proved as big a game-changer as Big Time Gaming’s Megaways mechanic, and it now features in hundreds of exciting slots, many of which have gone on to become classics. I think BTG’s decision to trademark it and lease it out to other developers was a masterstroke, as we’ve been able to reap the rewards of many top brands using it in their slot games. The latest developer to implement the mechanic is Skywind in their latest release, Respin Mani Megaways. It is a 6-reel slot offering up to 117,649 ways to win, a 96.50% RTP, and a 5,000x max win.

Those of you with a keen eye have probably caught on already, as the title gives a big clue that respins play a big role in the Respin Mania Megaways slot. Any winning combinations created with the help of the four-position horizontal reel above the main reels trigger a respin with the winning symbols locked in place. The reels continue to respin until the combination is not improved. That respin mechanic also takes centre stage in a free spins bonus, although this time, a win multiplier can increase up to a maximum of 5x the stake.

Skywind has gone for a classic theme for Respin Mania Megaways, and if you enjoy retro styling when spinning slot reels, I recommend you fire up the free-to-play Respin Mania Megaways demo slot below.

As with most classic slots, there’s not much of a base theme behind Respin Mania Megaways, but Skywind has done a stellar job in terms of presentation. The slot features high-quality, high-definition graphics and even has a funky dance tune playing in the background. By the way, once you’re done with this slot, if you want more classic-style slots featuring respins to play, I recommend checking out Inspired Games title Respin 7s. There’s no Megaways mechanic, but there is a similar respins feature that continues until winning combinations are no longer improved. Alternatively, if you really want to turn the dial back for some classic slotting, fire up our Starburst Extreme free play and Twin Spin Megaways free play slots, both great titles in that niche from industry veterans NetEnt.

Back to Respin Mania Megaways, and it’s about time I walked you through the payouts that could come your way while playing. The Red Seven tops the charts with a return of 25x the stake for a six-symbol combo, with the next best being the 3x the stake offered by a full line of Bar symbols. The Bell and Cherries round off the premium symbols with returns of 2x and 1.5x, respectively. Finally, we end with the low pays, and the Ace, King, and Queen share a 0.6x max payout, whilst the Jack, Ten, and Nine are worth up to 0.4x if six match across a payline. There is also a Wild symbol in the game, which win has no value of its own but helps create winning combinations by substituting for all regular symbols.

Bringing this section of the review to an end, we finish with the staking selections available on Respin Mania Megaways. These begin from a minimum of €0.20 a spin and max out for high rollers at an eye-watering €300.00, although I’d imagine this value will be capped at a lower amount when playing at an online casino for real money.

Respin Mania Megaways Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Respin Mania Megaways Slot Base Game

If, for some inexplicable reason, you’ve never played a Megaways slot before, I’ll quickly go over how it works. The Respin Mania Megaways slot has six reels and a four-position horizontal reel above the main reels. Each of the six reels can hold a random number of between two and six symbols, and those alongside the horizontal reel combine to deliver up to 117,649 ways to win. To create winning combinations, you must, for the most part, land three or more matching symbols on consecutive reels from left to right. The Red Seven is the exception, as you’ll scoop a payout for two or more matching instances across a payway.

Respins

If a spin reveals a winning combination aided by a symbol on the horizontal reel, all winning symbols are locked in place for a respin. If the winning combo is improved or another combination is created, the reels continue to respin. The respins stop when no improvements have been made to the combos on the reels.

Respin Mania Megaways Slot Bonus Features

If a spin reveals at least four scatter symbols, you’ll receive 10 free spins and an additional 5 for each additional triggering scatter symbol.

Free Spins Feature

The free spins play out similarly to the base game, and that means the respins feature can trigger when wins are created involving a symbol on the top reel. This time, however, there is a win multiplier that increases by 1x each time the respins improve the winning combinations. That multiplier can reach a maximum of 5x, applies to the total win at the end of the spin, and resets between free spins. Landing our or more scatter symbols during the spins will retrigger the bonus.

Bonus Buy

For 100x your current stake, you can use the buy feature bonus to guarantee the free spins bonus triggers. You’ll receive at least 10 free spins and up to a maximum of 50.

Pros

  • A well-presented slot in terms of graphics and audio.

Cons

  • The classic theme is far from original.
  • Lacks modifiers for a Megaways slot.

Respin Mania Megaways Slot Review Final Thoughts

Respin Mania Megaways combines a classic slot design with the Megaways mechanic and modern bonus features such as free spins and respins. That is a combination some of you might like, but for me, Respin Mania Megaways didn’t leave a lasting impression.
