The more the merrier, up to 200,704 Jolly ways to win await players in the Merry Megaways online slot. Things do not end there, however. Software provider Iron Dog Studio allows you to enjoy Christmas magic with a plethora of exciting features.

Theme and Symbols
Festive music, jolly effects and a large portion of the screen being covered in snow indicates that the Merry Megaways online slot is ready for Christmas. More so with Santa watching over the reels.
10-A royals frozen in ice cubes, Glass of Milk, Chocolate Cake, Candy Canes, Elf, Reindeer and Santa make up for the pay table of the game. There are also Present Wilds, Sleigh Scatters and two additional special symbols that we’ll talk more about in the following section, stay tuned.
Betting Options and Features
The game is played with 6 main reels and a bonus horizontal reel above reels 2-4, producing up to a maximum of 200,704 ways to win. As is the case with the majority of megaways slots, each win triggers the Tumble mechanic, removing and replacing winning participants with new ones.
Players engage on a highly volatile math model where best odds sit at 95,9% and max win goes as high as 20,000x the stake. In terms of betting range, stakes stretch anywhere from 0,10 -20,00 credits per strike.
Christmas Crackers - This one appears only on the bonus horizontal reel, one at a time. Once landed, it acts as a Wild Symbol and is persistent through tumbles, after which it explodes along with one random pay symbol from each vertical reel and 2 extra symbols on random locations.
Free Spins - 4+ Scatters in view trigger the feature and award 6-11 Free Spins, chosen randomly. The round is played with a progressive win multiplier, increasing by 1 for each successful win. Moreover, the game introduces the Santa’s Sack Symbol on the horizontal reel.
If it appears in numbers of 1 or 2, then it adds 2-4 or 4-8 Wilds on reels 2-4 or 2-5 respectively. What is more, 1 Santa’s Sack also adds 2 additional Free Spins whereas 2 Santa’s Sack Symbols grant +4.
If that’s not enough for you, then keep in mind that the feature also comes with the Lucky Last Spin. If the last Free Spin results in a win, another Free Spins is awarded and so on, no limit set to how much Lucky Last Spins you can trigger.
Wrapping Up
By now, we think we’ve seen every possible version of the megaways engine and its innovative gameplay experience. What we can say about the Merry Megaways online slot machine is that it also introduces a couple of twists in the bonus round, which is something refreshing and prevents the dullness.
Definitely not the first time we see this studio experiment with the megaways engine, there’s a whole load of those in Iron Dog Studio’s online chest of slots.
