The Ultimate MegaJackpots® Wheel of Fortune® Progressive Jackpot Review

The main gameplay loop of MegaJackpots® Wheel of Fortune® is relatively straightforward. All you have to do is set a wager between $0.40 to $800 per spin. While the minimum wager amount is relatively high, the maximum sits at an acceptable amount. The maximum actually puts the slot on the edge of high-roller territory, which is great news for any high-octane punter who is chasing a progressive jackpot.

Do not fret if you do not land a progressive jackpot, as the progressive slot features 20 generous paylines. The lowest paying symbols on these paylines are card royals, whose wins are between 45x and 60x your wager for five-of-a-kind. In comparison, the highest paying symbols are five-strong combinations, whose payout depends on the symbols in question, with rings paying a wager multiplier of 80 and jets paying 150. If you manage to land wilds, you win 30x your stake.

We cannot talk about the gameplay without touching on the Auto Spin feature, which modern punters can hardly do without. Said feature allows you to set your desired spin count, coin value, wager size per spin, loss limit, and win limit. Note that some jurisdictions ban the Autoplay feature due to legal prerogatives.

While we intend to explore the symbols and their contributions in depth later in this review, we want to quickly cover the various features that impact general gameplay:

• The mystery transform feature - If you manage to activate it, you get up to 6, 11, or 14 mystery symbols that turn into one symbol, which gives you better chances of winning.
• The wild reel feature - It makes 3, 4, or 5 reels turn wild, which can lead to payouts of up to 600 times your stake.
• The respin feature - When 3, 4, or 5 respins land, you trigger bonus scatters that turn into sticky wilds. Note that new wilds also become sticky for the remainder of the respins.
• The multiplier feature - It is your typical stake multiplier that can potentially amount to 10 times your stake in the Wheel, 50 times your stake in the Super Wheel, and 250 times your stake in the Ultra Wheel. We will explore these types of wheels in more detail in the next section.

MegaJackpots® Wheel of Fortune® takes bonus rounds to an entirely new level with the help of three Wheel levels. You can participate in the bonus round with as little as 3 bonus symbols, which in this case are represented by MegaJackpots tokens. However, if you manage to land more than 3, you are immediately put in the running for better-quality Wheels. What is more, placing higher bets gives you higher chances of winning MegaJackpots tokens while also multiplying your prize value envelopes with a higher factor.

The split of MegaJackpot tokens and wheel quality is as follows:

• 3 bonus symbols trigger 1 spin of the Wheel
• 4 bonus symbols trigger 1 spin of the Super Wheel
• 5 bonus symbols trigger 1 spin of the Ultra Wheel

While the Wheels in question vary greatly in terms of the quality of their rewards, each spin of the wheel will land one of the wedges, with each wedge containing one of these components:

• Multiplier: It grants you a multiplier that is applied to the winnings of your placed wager.
• Mystery: It triggers the mystery transform feature.
• Wild Reel wedge: It grants you the wild reel feature.
• Respin: It grants you the respin feature.
• MegaJackpots: It grants you an envelope that can hold either the MegaJackpots progressive jackpot or a cash prize.

However, the fun does not end there! Punters are put into a behind-the-scenes second chance drawing for the progressive jackpot even if they do not manage to land a progressive jackpot during the wheel bonus round.
