Part of the gameplay is the cascading reels system, which is typical for Megaways. When you score a win, all paying symbols crush to make room for new ones to appear from above. This triggers a chain reaction with great win potential. It ends once there are no more wins. At the end of the last winning reaction, you will be paid for the whole spin sequence.
There are 3 fixed jackpots worth from 30 to 1,000 times your stake. You will win the most from the Re-spin feature. In it there are multipliers, resetting of the free re-spins number and special reels’ multipliers. All these increase their amount to give you massive wins. The top cash reward from the base game is 19,200 times your stake. In the re-spin feature, you can grab much more.
The background of the game is a dense jungle, in front of which is positioned the playing grid. An ancient Aztec temple represents it with gold prevailing in its design. On its top, you will see the number of Megaways and the three fixed jackpots, which are encased in gold.
On the reels, you will see the usual cards of the royals that here are styled with red, green and other gems. The high-value symbols are ferocious jaguars, snakes, leopards, falcons and Aztec Gods. The soundtrack is tribal, ethnic, and adventurous, adding real charm to the game. You will hear choir shouts, flutes, and other playful and rhythmic sounds spicing up your play. The RTP of Aztec Gold Megaways is 95.99% and its volatility is medium to high.
The low-value symbols are the card royals from 9 to A. They have payouts of from 0.8 to 1.75 times your stake for 6 identical symbols. The premium ones are the colour symbols: eagles, jaguars, snakes and Aztec god statues. They return from 2.5 to 50 times your stake for 6 of a kind. The wild symbol replaces all regular ones and lands on reels 2 to 5 only. The bonus symbol is a tribal Sun Disc. It activates the re-spin feature in the game, which holds the largest cash prizes.
During any regular spin, you can have a modifier, that is triggered randomly. More sun discs will be added to the reels. The modifier increases your chances of triggering the free re-spins. Yet, you should know that triggering it doesn’t guarantee to activate the bonus round. It can only help you in case you have some.
To activate the Aztec Gold Cash Respin feature you need 5 or more Sun Discs anywhere on the reels in one spin. The Sun Disc is the scatter. The multiplier scatters you landed will stick in their places. The number of Megways you scored will also lock for the following re-spins. The triggering spin determines the next rounds’ win ways, number of symbols and multipliers’ values per reel. The starting spins that you will receive are 3. Now, you aim to get as many multiplier scatters as possible on the blank spaces.
The landed scatter multipliers will lock on their places as will any further ones during the re-spins. Each multiplier scatter you land will reset the Respin counter to 3 and become sticky too. The scatters you land in the feature can hold a coin win or one of the 3 fixed jackpots. These are:
Above each reel, you will see an extra multiplier value. It is determined by the number of symbols that can land on that particular reel. If you succeed to fill all positions on any reel, its corresponding multiplier value above will become active. It will pay you at the end of the feature. The possible values of the top reel multiplier are x3, x4, x5, x6 and x7. These show the number of symbols that can land per reel.
When you run out of re-spins or you fill all positions on the grid with symbols, the feature will end. This is when your total payout starts to be calculated. You will win the value of all multipliers and fixed jackpots. Active top multipliers will be calculated for each reel. The resetting of the re-spin number, top reel multiplier and fixed jackpots grant you impressive sums from this feature.
Aztec Gold Megaways is an entertaining video slot. It has intense and dynamic features, the most thrilling and rewarding of which is the Re-spin. Its win potential is determined by the triggering spins. They set how many Megaways you will be playing with. It also decides the number of symbols that will land on each reel and the value of the top multiplier per reel. This medium to high variance game will be available since January. It promises to attract fans of the Megaways system and high rollers.
