- A very basic slot from Pragmatic Play
- Each spin offers a multiplier up to 100x
- Megaways mechanic only offers up to 512 ways to win
Aztec Gems Megaways slot is from Pragmatic Play and it takes simplicity to a whole new level with just a single feature on offer as you play that can give you some multipliers. It comes with a familiar Aztec theme that looks pretty good compared to many of the others out there, although not exceptional. Despite having the Megaways mechanic, you’ll notice there are only 3 reels with base symbols that offer up to just 512 ways to win, far fewer than you’d expect. There aren’t cascades either which is a real shame. For a win then, you just have to get a winning combination from left to right using the base symbols the slot has to offer.
Aztec Gems Megaways Slot Bonuses and Features
Wilds. Like many slots, this game has wild symbols which substitute for all others in a winning combination.
Multiplier Reel. You’ll notice as you play this game there’s multiplier reel that, on each spin, reveals a multiplier. These can have values of 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x or 100x. Any payouts during the spin will apply this multiplier. If there are no wins, then the multiplier spins again.
Conclusion
Some slots are very complicated, packed with features, and some are quite simple focusing on core gameplay with just enough to make it interesting. Pragmatic Play have certainly gone the simple route here, in fact this slot is about as simple as it gets. There’s only one feature to speak of, the multiplier reel, which shows a multiplier from 1x up to 100x on each spin which applies to all wins on that spin. This is decent enough feature, but on its own it hardly counts for much with not even a free spins bonus to speak of. There are Megaways too, but that doesn’t really count as a feature as it’s more of a mechanic of the gameplay, and you don’t even get cascades or as many ways to win as you’d typically get with Megaways. For me, despite having a solid win potential up to 10,000x, the game just sin’t interesting enough to play for more than 5-10minutes, and I don’t know why they haven’t included more here. I think there are far better options from this developer, like Mining Rush slot which you can read our review of here.
