Theme – rocket to riches with out of this world action

With a space theme, the Over the Moon Megaways slot has a sci-fi feel. Set in outer space, the graphics and visuals are quite simple and have a cartoon look. With shooting stars in the background, the symbols really stand out on the screen. That said, it’s nowhere as detail as other BTG slots like Rasputin Megaways for example.

On the reels, you will see coloured A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 playing cards which appear within what seems to be ice blocks. Higher value symbols include green, blue, red and purple gems. The purple gem symbol is the highest paying with 6 in combination awarding 50 x your total bet.

Keep and out eye for the multi-coloured Wild symbol that substitutes for paying symbols highlighted above. 6 wilds in combination will pay like the purple gem: 50 x bet. Other symbols include bronze, silver and gold meteors as well as batteries, Golden Star Scatters and Purple Star Megascatters (more details on these below). Below you will find a table highlighting the payouts and/or functions of all Over the Moon Megaways symbols:

Over the Moon Megaways Mobile

Released on 26^th of April 2023, the Over the Moon Megaways slot has been created with HTML5 technology. This means it’s available to play on mobile, tablet, PC and/or laptop devices. If you’re a smartphone user, it’s been optimised for iOS, Android and Windows mobiles.

Over the Moon Megaways Bonus Features

The Over the Moon Megaways slot takes you on an adventure through the cosmos with 6 bonus features. Meteors have prizes which are subject to rocket multipliers. There are free spins where the Rocket Multiplier increases by 1 with each rocket that lands. In the Enhanced version, the Rocket Multiplier increases by 2. You can also exchange wins for a chance to play free spins.

Reactions feature

As with countless other Megaways games, every winning combination leads to the Reactions feature activating. Winning symbols are removed from the reels with new symbols occupying the empty spaces. This allows for successive wins or reactions. These continue as long as new wins are created.

Rockets and Meteor Prizes feature

To the side of the reels, you will notice rockets carrying a 1x, 5x or 10x multiplier blast onto the reels randomly on each spin or reaction. There are also meteor symbols which come with bet multiplier prizes up to 100 x your total bet.

Known as the Rockets and Meteor Prizes feature, meteor prizes are collected by rockets. There are bronze, silver and gold meteor prizes. If you landed a gold meteor worth 100 x bet with a 10x multiplier rocket, you’d pocket 1,000 x your total bet.

However, space exploration is only possible with fuel onboard. Rocket symbols lose a fuel cell after each reaction and return to Earth with the fuels runs out. Keep a look out for battery symbols which keep the rockets flying and multiplying basically.

Free Spins feature

The Free Spins feature is triggered by landing 3 or more Golden Star Scatter symbols anywhere on a base game spin. 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters will result in 12, 14, 16 or 18 free spins respectively.

Rockets begin with a 1x multiplier and the Rocket Multiplier increases for each rocket that appears on the reels. Battery symbols appearing on reel 6 (the rightmost reel) will refuel all rockets on the reels. 3 or more scatters will give you 4 additional free spins plus 2 for each scatter beyond the third, with no limits.

Enhanced Free Spins feature

Then you have the Enhanced Free Spins feature which is activated when a Purple Star Megascatter symbol appears during the Free Spins feature. Rocket Multipliers begin at 2x and increase by 2 for each rocket that appears. Like in the standard free spins more enhanced free spins can be won by landing 3+ scatters.

Win Exchange feature

When you achieve meteoric wins, you have a chance to win free spins with the Win Exchange feature. Used in many BTG slots such as Outlaw Megaways and Golden Catch Megaways, you can exchange your entire win for a chance to trigger the Free Spins feature.

When you win between 25 and 80 x bet, you can gamble to win access to the Free Spins feature. The chance of winning the gamble is shown in green on the wheel. Lose the gamble and you’ll revert to the base game. If you win 80 x bet or more, you can exchange this for guaranteed entry to the Free Spins feature. Both options will give you 12 free spins.

Bonus Buy feature

Finally, non UK players have the choice of the Bonus Buy feature. To enable, press or click on the golden Bonus Buy icon/button to the side of the reels. You then are presented with 2 options to play the free spins or enhanced free spins. Costing up to 140 x bet, the RTP will change as a result:

Over the Moon Megaways Summary – rinse + repeat in outer space

Visually quite basic, the Over the Moon Megaways slot game has a cartoonish feel graphically. I do however like how the symbols really stand out from the outer space backdrop.

In terms of the gameplay, there are standard reactions but the meteor bet prizes and rocket multipliers can give you wins of up to 1,000 x bet on each meteor. Multiple meteors can lead bigger prizes of course. The Free Spins feature is pretty standard with the Rocket Multiplier increasing with each rocket that appears. In the Enhanced version, it’s more of the same but the Rocket Multiplier rises by 2 each time.

With 13,570 x bet max wins per free spin, Over the Moon Megaways has a high RTP rate of 96.55%. Unfortunately though, this game fails to deliver the excitement intended. There is nothing that makes it stand out whether that would be gameplay or graphically.

It feels a lot like the Chinese New Year-themed Gifts of Fortune Megaways slot which comes with slightly higher win potential of 13,960 x bet. The Enhanced Free Spins feature has also been seen before in slots such as Castle of Terror.

Overall, the Over the Moon Megaways slot is not going to appeal to hardcore Megaways or Big Time Gaming fans. New players might find the theme appealing but there are better space slots out there. Relax Gaming’s Space Miners offers up to 1 million ways to win, free spins and 50,000 x bet max wins.
