Super Joker Megaways

Super Joker Megaways may not come with a Christmas theme, even though it is released at the very end of the year, however, that does not mean that it does not bring a pretty nice gift with it.

Well, at least for the fans of fruity gaming, since it boasts a quite different approach to the classic slot machine!

The developers at Stakelogic decided to demonstrate that you can incorporate a popular BTG Megaways engine to even the most classical games and transform them into a type of game suitable for everyone!

Theme and Symbols

Though the game boasts a sophisticated addition in the form of Megaways (see here), it is still a real heir of a classic fruit machine, showing quite simple graphics.

The background shows a red-chequered background, looking like it came from the 1970s, standing behind a 3-reel grid lined in gold, featuring huge icons. When you enter the Super Joker Mode, though, the background transforms itself into blue colour.

On the reels, you will see the star Joker, followed by a gold star, golden bell, lucky 7s, grapes, lemons and cherries.

Spinning these classic reels is accompanied by a lively soundtrack that you surely won't wish to turn off.

Betting Options and Other Functions

Being a real classic game, you can expect to see a 3-reeled grid, but, much to everyone's surprise, the number of rows goes from 2 to 8 symbols high!

The title allows up to 512 Megaways to be active while coming with high variance and a low RTP of 96.50%, while the maximum winning potential is quite decent – standing at 2592x the stake!

Before you start spinning the reels, you need to set your bets that range from 10 p/c up to £/€100, but, as it's the case with many Stakelogic games, here you also have a chance of choosing to play with a Super Stake feature, in which case you increase your base bet, as well as more Scatter symbols and higher RTP.

As for symbols, the game features only six regulars, with the lowest-rewarding ones being cherries, then go lemons, grapes, bells, stars, and lucky sevens, worth 0.20x to 5x the stake for three of a kind. 

Special Features

Due to being a Megaways version of a classic title, there will always be a random number of rows from 2 to 8 on each reel, going up to 512 ways to win!

What's more, after every win, you will trigger the Cascading Reels feature that gives you a new set of symbols to land on the positions of the winning symbols and continue to do that as long as new combos are forming.

We have already mentioned the Super Stake mode, but what's important to mention is that by choosing to trigger it, you are also more likely to benefit from the Mystery Wins.

They can be delivered thanks to the Joker Scatter symbol appearing three times on the reels.

Whenever that happens, the feature starts by rewarding a random cash prize of up to 600x the stake, however, if the Scatter appears four times, the cash prize of 600x is yours!

But wait, there's more!

Winning at least 2x your stake will trigger the Super Joker Mode when the whole background turns blue and your win displays in a Super Meter set above the reels.

Here, you can CHOOSE whether to spin in this mode which doubles the size of the total bet or collect your winnings and the mode finished when the money in the meter is either less than 2x or greater than 200x the stake. 

But, here's the kicker!

During this mode, it is much easier to get Mystery Wins as you only need 2 Scatter symbols on the reels!

Verdict

The developers at Stakelogic really managed to provide punters with a unique Megaways experience by combining it with a fruit-themed machine and a unique set of features!

If you have played some of their previous releases, then you know that the Super Stake option is standard by now, and though it doubles each bet, it can also provide some impressive wins!

Besides, the Super Joker Mode and an option to gamble are a nice addition that will surely make you give this unusual classic a try!
