Mammoth Gold Megaways Slot Review

Mammoth Gold Megaways RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Mammoth Gold Megaways slot, as the name suggests, uses the Megaways mechanism from Big Time Gaming. Played across a 6 + 1 reel formation, 6 reels spin as normal whilst the top reel spins horizontally. This leaves you with 17,649 ways to win, and winning combinations are created from left to right on adjacent reels.

Like most Pragmatic Play slots, Mammoth Gold Megaways is playable from 20p to £100. You can adjust your stake using the + and – buttons below the reels. Depending on where you’re playing from, you may also be able to buy free spins or use the Autoplay function, but these options are not available within the UK.

The slot has an RTP rate of 96.03%, though this falls to 96% if you choose to buy free spins. That said, both rates are in line with the average for online slots. The game also has a high volatility rating (5/5), so you might be left out in the cold with the mammoths for a while before you land a big win.

Finally, Mammoth Gold Megaways offers max wins of 10,000 x your total stake. This is quite generous, though there are other Megaways slots with higher winning potentials.

Theme – Ice, Ice Baby

From the title of this slot alone, you can guess the theme. Set thousands of years ago before the Ice Age, this arctic adventure slot boasts superb graphics and a whole range of extinct animals. The soundtrack features beating drums and whispering winds, both of which help to set the scene.

The reels hang against a snowy mountainscape. Lower paying symbols are represented by playing card suits, whilst higher paying symbols include a dodo, a bear, a warthog, a wolf, and and a sabertooth tiger. A six of a kind combination gives you between of 0.5 to 0.6 times your bet for the card suits, or 0.75 to 3 times your bet for the other animals.

The mammoth is the highest paying symbol, rewarding you with up to 5 x your stake. There’s also a volcano Wild symbol. This only appears on the top reel, and substitutes for all other symbols besides the scatter.

Mammoth Gold Megaways Mobile

Mammoth Gold Megaways runs on HTML5 technology, so it performs great on all devices. Like all Pragmatic Play titles, you can enjoy the slot on iOS, Android and Windows smartphones, tablets, laptops and PCs.

Due to the busy reel formation and the level of detail in the graphics, we recommend playing on laptop or PC. Although the game looks fine on smaller screens, we wouldn’t want you to miss out on anything.

Mammoth Gold Megaways Bonus Features

There are 3 main bonus features in the Mammoth Gold Megaways slot. This includes a tumble feature, multiplier wilds and a free spins bonus round.

Tumble Feature

When you create a winning nomination, all contributing symbols are removed from the reels and new symbols drop in to take their place. If this results in a new win, a new payout is calculated and the tumble feature unlocks again.The feature continues until no new winning combinations appear.

Whilst quite a lot of slots now boast tumble features, it’s still a rewarding mechanism that gives you the chance to win multiple times from a single spin.

Multiplier Wilds Feature

When a wild symbol lands on the reels, it carries a multiplier of 2 or 3 x your stake. This multiplier is then applied to the current spin, and any subsequent tumble wins too. The multiplier is also collected in a meter at the top of the reels.

Should you land another wild during a tumble, the value of the first multiplier is multiplied by the second. So for instance, if you had a 2 x multiplier collected in the meter, and a 3 x multiplier landed on the reels, your win would be multiplied by 6.

Free Spins Feature

The free spins feature is triggered when you land 3 or more iceberg Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. You’re then given a random amount of free spins. The more scatters you land, the higher the chance of starting the round with more free spins .

If the number of free spins you are awarded is lower than 14, you can choose to gamble to try to win a larger amount. The gamble is played out on a wheel, where you can hit win or lose. Hit a ‘Win’, and you’ll recieve 1 extra free spin. Hit ‘Lose’, however, and you forfeit all free spins and the bonus round ends. Though this sounds scary, gambling for more free spins has a 64.43% success rate or higher.

Mammoth Gold Megaways Review Summary – multipliers needed for mammoth wins

The Mammoth Gold Megaways slot is a decent release and there’s lots to like about it. The theme and graphics are great, and the bonus features can create some big winning opportunities. That said, if you’ve played Muertos Multipliers Megaways before you might be disappointed. Mammoth Gold Megaways is essentially a reskinning of the Mexican-themed slot, so don’t expect anything new.

In terms of gameplay, the key is to land multiplier wilds in either the base game or the free spins. Building these in the meter is your best chance at getting close to the 10,000 x your stake max wins. The gamble feature is also enjoyable, especially as there’s a reasonable likelihood of winning extra free spins.

Overall, Mammoth Gold Megaways offers you a good-looking slot with a decent RTP rate. Besides the graphics there’s nothing original about it, but we understand not all players are looking for something wildly unique. Sometimes, settling down with a slot where you know what to expect is enough. At those times, powering up Mammoth Gold Megaways wouldn’t be a bad option.
