About this Slot
Ancient Island Megaways is an Aztec-themed slot from Pragmatic Play with an RTP of 96.55%, high volatility and a maximum win of 10,000x. The game uses a 6-reel layout with 2 to 7 rows that expands dynamically, creating up to 117,649 paylines through the Megaways mechanic.
Cascading wins remove winning symbols and allow new ones to fall into place, potentially creating multiple wins from a single spin. Following a cascade, a respin feature can trigger, giving the player another chance to form winning combinations.
The top reel features a modifier that activates with every wild symbol landed. Modifiers award cash prizes, multipliers, Max Ways to increase the payline count, replacements for other symbols, or an extra wild reel.
Expanding wilds fill their reel vertically, covering multiple positions in a single spin. During the free spins bonus, the top reel remains active at all times, continuing to apply modifiers throughout the feature.
Four scatters trigger 12 free spins, five scatters trigger 14 free spins, and six scatters trigger 16 free spins. Extra spins can be awarded during the bonus round, extending the total number of free spins available.
A feature buy option is available, allowing players to purchase direct entry into the free spins bonus.
