Rainbow Wilds Megaways Review

Iron Dog has some solid Megaways titles under their belt already, and the most notable is probably 1 Million Megaways BC. Rainbow Wilds Megaways follows in the footsteps of their 2018 release Rainbow Wilds. The cutsie-cutsie factor has been toned down in this release, but certain elements of the core features have been carried over.

The Celtic atmosphere is intact, and the reels come with leprechauns, elves and 3 different wild symbols. Cascading/Tumble wins is key to triggering the bonus round, as it was in the original title, and a bit of luck with the different bonus round multipliers can produce impressive payouts up to 12,000x your stake. The enchanted forest setting comes with a volatile beast lurking right below the idyllic facade, and this is not for low-risk punters.

Rainbow Wilds Megaways Features

The Tumble Wins mechanic makes sure that winning symbols are removed, and a fresh batch of symbols drop from above to fill the gap. The process goes on as long as you keep winning, and combined with the different number of win ways and rows, the base game spins are kept unpredictable.

You have 3 different wilds that take center stage in this game, and all of them will step in for regular pay symbols as wilds usually do. However, they also come with some extra abilities as follows:

  • Regular wilds - can land on reels 2 to 6, and they come with a 1x multiplier.

    You can land regular wilds in the base game and during the bonus round, and more than one can land on the same spin.
  • Mushroom wild - can land one at the time on reels 3 or 4 during base game play and during free spins. It will generate up to 3 new mushroom wilds on reels 2 to 5, and all regular wild multipliers are upgraded with +1 if a mushroom wild is present on the same reel.
  • Sticky wilds - can land on reels 2 to 4 in the bonus round only (we’ll discuss the details below).

You need at least 4 consecutive Tumble wins to trigger the bonus round, and this gives you 8 free spins. Every Tumble win above the minimum of 4 awards 2 extra free spins, up to 14 at the most. You can also get extra spins during the bonus round, and there are 2 “opposite” ways this can happen:

  • 4 consecutive Tumble wins add 2 free spins to your tally. Each extra cascade on top of the minimum of 4 adds 1 extra spin.

    You can get up to 6 extra spins per sequence, but this requires 8 consecutive wins.
  • 4 consecutive non-winning spins also gives you 2 extra free spins. Up to 6 spins can be won this way too, by landing non-winning spins in the manner described above.

The bonus round Sticky wilds come with a starting multiplier of 1x, and the multipliers increase with +1 for each consecutive Tumble. The wilds are sticky as long as the Tumble sequence goes on, which means that the wilds are removed when you land a losing spin.

You also have a global progressive multiplier in play during free spins, and it starts at 1x and increases with +1 per consecutive Tumble. The good news is that the global multiplier will not reset between spins, and wild multipliers are multiplied with the global multiplier to boost your winnings.

Impatient non-UK players can take advantage of the bonus buy option. The bonus buy button is found on top of the tumble meter on the left. Cough up 85x your stake to win 8 free spins, while 115x your stake gives you 10 free spins.

The 200 Spins Rainbow Wilds Megaways Experience

Nothing much happened for us in the base game, so after a while we headed straight for the bonus buy option. We went with the 10 free spins option, and the bonus round starts at 0:34 into the 2-minute highlights video below. We racked up a 7x global multiplier in the end, and you can see it all play out by hitting the play button.

Review Summary

What struck us more than anything while testing Rainbow Wilds Megaways, is how the overused Irish Luck theme dulls the impression of this game.

Rainbow Wilds Megaways Slot Review 853

The somewhat interesting wild features sort of drown in the noise, and you get too focused on the forest to notice the trees (if that makes sense). A different theme might have made the wild features stick out more, but it is what it is.

We like how both consecutive losses and wins award extra spins in the bonus round, and the multiplier action is certainly capable of dishing out impressive payouts. The volatility is more brutal than what the scenery makes it look like, and it’s very possible to win little to nothing from the free spins. Overall, Iron Dog has made a decent enough game, but it’s just not memorable enough to have much of a shelf life.

Pros

  • Cascading wins and up to 117,649 megaways
  • 3 different wild types (1 in bonus round only)
  • Free spins with multiplier sticky wilds and global multiplier
  • Win up to 12,000x your stake

Cons

  • Attempts at originality drowns in Irish Luck noise

It's a tad below the 96% figure we like to see with online video slots - but it's not bad and is only a smudge under - so it shouldn't have any noticeable. The original Rainbow Wilds slot was a highly volatile game, and Iron Dog has pushed that even further, rating the volatility here as 'very high'. There is.
