Game Overview

Now that the internet is so accessible and there are multiple social media platforms for people to use, there’s never been so many celebrities gracing us with their presence. I use the term “celebrity” loosely, however, as it seems you don’t really need to do much to be classed as one these days. So maybe there’s hope for us all yet! Let’s take a look at the latest bunch of wannabes then in Pragmatic Play’s slot titled Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways. This six-reel slot has 117,649 paylines, an RTP of 96.01%, and a maximum win of 10,000x bet.

There are a few features to tell you about, so let’s kick things off with the tumbling reels mechanic. Each time a win reaction occurs, this will spring into action, with all symbols involved in the winning combo being removed from the reels and new ones dropping down to fill the spaces left behind. Then, we have the respin feature that activates when three scatters land in view. This awards five free respins, giving you a chance to catch additional scatters to trigger the main bonus round. Speaking of which, the free spins feature is a standard Megaways bonus that includes a win multiplier. Each successful reel tumble will cause its value to increment by a further x1. Finishing things off, we have two bonus buy options: the respins feature valued at 20x the bet and the free spins at 100x.

Is this set to be an all-star A-list affair, or will we be stuck with another pile of Z-listers trying to make a name for themselves? Why not find out and give our free demo slot of Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways a spin. It’s available for you to try below.

Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways slot paytable

It was back in 1968 when the famous American artist Andy Warhol said, “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes”. This is better known nowadays as somebody having their 15 minutes of fame, and it would appear this was a reasonably accurate prediction from Warhol. The current celebrity conveyor belt is one that continues to churn out manufactured singers, so-called reality TV stars, and pretty much anyone that can upload a video to social media in some instances. Only a select handful of these celebs then go on to do anything of note, whilst the others disappear back into the obscurity of where they first came from. Surprisingly, but more likely down to licensing than anything else, there is a distinct lack of slots themed around the famous. Of course, you’ve got the likes of NetEnt’s Jimi Hendrix and a few other music themed slots from Big Time Gaming, but generally speaking, this is a relatively untapped genre.

Over we go to the paytable then, and the highest paying symbol is the Dog, which will pay 25x for a six of a kind win. This is followed by the Singer at 7.5x for a completed payline, a Granny worth 4x when all six hit, the Agent at 2x, and the last of the premium paying symbols, a Trendy-Looking Dude valued at 2x bet for a full line of six. Dropping down to the lower pays, we have a total of five royal symbols. These are the Ace, which pays 1.75x for a full payline; the King and Queen, both worth 1x; the Jack at 0.9x; and finally, the Ten, which pays 0.8x for a full line of Six. There is the inclusion of a Wild symbol to look out for, too. This is the younger female wearing a star headband who only appears on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5, who will substitute for all regular game symbols.

Pragmatic tend to stick to a tried and tested formula with their betting range, which is again in place on Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways. Players can get the reels spinning from a minimum of €0.10 with a good selection of intermediate stakes following before reaching the maximum bet of €100.

Base Game & Modifiers

Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways slot base game

It would be a fair assumption to say that Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways was set in London, given that the 6×7 reel set has been placed within an iconic red double-decker bus, and there’s also what appears to be the London Eye in the background too. There isn’t an upper reel present in this game, which you would expect on a Megaways slot with this format, but it is still capable of generating up to 117,649 paylines on any spin. Hitting a winning combo across this setup requires at least three matching symbols to land on adjacent reels, starting for the leftmost reel first.

Tumble Feature

More commonly known as cascading reels, the tumbling reels mechanic activates when a win has been created within the base game or bonus round. Initially, all symbols in the win explode and are removed from the reels before new symbols fall from above to replace them, giving you additional chances to win from just one paid spin.

Respin Feature

Whenever three or more scatter symbols land during the base game, the respin feature will be triggered, and five free respins will be awarded. The scatters that are already on the reels will lock in place, and the number of symbols on each reel will remain the same as the spin that triggered the feature.

During the respins, any additional wins will be credited to your balance, and the feature will end when all five spins have been used or if you manage to land a scatter on every reel before that occurs.

Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways Slot Bonus Features

Scatter symbols appear on every reel, and landing a minimum of four will trigger the main bonus round. Hitting a basic four-scatter trigger awards 8 free spins, with each additional scatter that lands thereafter adding two more spins to your starting total.

Free Spins

You’ll begin the free spins bonus with an active win multiplier of x1 in value. Each reel tumble that is then achieved in the feature will increase the value of the multiplier by a further x1, with a limit of 50x being the maximum it may reach. You can also win more spins via a re-trigger, with three scatters landing view topping up your spin counter by an extra five.

Bonus Buy

Those playing from a region or jurisdiction where the bonus buy menu is active have the following possibilities available to them if they want to enhance their gameplay.

Respins Feature: Costs 20x bet to activate.
Free Spins Feature: Costs 100x bet to activate.
