Rocket Blast Megaways Slot Bonuses and Features
Wild Symbol. There’s one of these too that substitutes for all other symbols in a winning combination apart from the scatter. They can appear on all reels apart from reel 1.
Tumbles. Common in Megaways slots, this mechanic means that all winning symbols are removed from the screen and replaced with new ones that fall in from above. If these new symbols create more wins, the same will happen again and continue to do so until there are no more wins, all within the same spin at no extra cost.
Rocket Feature. There’s a rocket symbol in this game and whenever it lands, all symbol below it will turn into wilds. Whether they are part of a win or not, these wild symbols will nudge 1 positions down for every tumble after that until there are none left on the screen. For each nudge, a new symbol will appear from above.
Free Spins Bonus. This is triggered when you land 4 or more scatter symbols and these are not removed during any tumbles. Just 4 scatters will give you 10 free spins, but each additional 1 will give you 5 more up to 9 scatter symbols, giving you 35 free spins. You also get an option to gamble for more if you want, the the odds of winning the gamble increasing the higher your gamble is worth. You start the bonus with a 1x multiplier, and for every tumble, this multiplier increases by 1x and doesn’t reset between rounds. You can also land 3 scatters during the bonus for 4 more free spins, and the rocket feature is still available here.
Bonus Buy. Outside the U.K., you can buy the main bonus for 100x your stake, landing 4 up to 9 scatters at random.
Conclusion
Rocket Blast Megaways slot from Pragmatic Play is their latest game to use the popular mechanic from Big Time Gaming. It offers a nice wild feature during both the base game and free spins bonus, but the main bonus offers a progressive multiplier which is common with these types of slots and it isn’t capped either which is nice to see. The maximum win is capped at 10,000x your stake though which is a little low for a Megaways game but still quite high in general. Overall, it’s a solid Megaways game that doesn’t stand out too much from the others out there but it’s probably still worth playing.
