Judgement Day Megaways Slot Review

Judgement Day Megaways Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Judgement Day Megaways slot is played using Big Time Gaming’s Megaways mechanic. You’ll play on 6 reels and up to 117,649 ways to win. Every reel will randomly display between 2 and 7 symbols. To benefit from 117,649 Megaways, you need 7 symbols appearing on each reel.

With at least 324 Megaways/ways to win, winning combinations are created when 3 or more matching symbols simply appear on consecutive reels. They can appear in any position but must start on the leftmost reel.

When it comes to betting options, you can play Judgement Day Megaways from 10p to £4 a spin. To change your bet, click/press the plus/minus buttons under the reels (within the Stake box). Players outside the UK can use the Auto option which allows up to 100 auto spins with loss and win limits. Look out for the Turbo Mode button which speeds up your play.

Returns-wise, the Judgement Day Megaways RTP rate is 96%. This is bang on the online slots average. It’s not quite the 97.66% RTP found in Blood Suckers Megaways though (also by Red Tiger Gaming). The volatility rating is very high.

Finally, and more importantly, the Judgement Day Megaways slot comes with 100,000 x bet max wins. Bigger wins will come from the free spins where each of the Seal Wilds features can be in play on every single free spin.

Theme: beware the Horsemen’s wrath

With a death theme, the Judgement Day Megaways slot is based on the last day of someone’s mortal life. According to the Bible, everyone is judged by their deeds which determines if they go to heaven, purgatory or hell. It’s also known as the Last Judgment, the Day of Reckoning or Doomsday in some cultures.

Dark and depicting death, it’s clear Red Tiger Gaming has put a lot of effort into the visuals. You’ll come up against the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (in the Book of Revelation) which personify Death, Famine, War and Conquest. The setting features thunderous skies, death and mountains of human skulls. Aurally, the soundtrack is eerie and very intense.

On the reels, you’ll see low-value clubs, diamonds, hearts, spades and stars with high-value symbols represented by arrows, axes, daggers, swords and skulls. The skull is the best-paying symbol with 0.5, 1, 2 or 5 x bet awarded for 3, 4, 5 or 6 in combination.

There are 5 Wild symbols (Seal Wild, Conquest Wild, War Wild, Famine Wild and Death Wild) which appear on the reels once the Seal Wild symbol summons any Horseman of the Apocalypse. Additionally, there is a Free Spins Scatter that triggers the free spins.

Judgement Day Megaways Mobile

Released in September 2023, the Judgement Day Megaways slot is available to play on desktop, mobile and tablet devices. It’s compatible with iOS, Android and Windows smartphones. For the best visual experience, I would recommend a laptop or PC.

Judgement Day Megaways Bonus Features

The Judgement Day Megaways slot has 6 bonus features. Offering chain reactions/avalanches, Seal Wilds will summon a random Horseman to give you random wilds, split symbols for more ways to win, multipliers on 2 random reels and nudges that award multipliers. In the Free Spins feature, a Seal Wilds feature applies to every free spin. Retriggers give you more free spins and more Seal Wilds features.

Chain Reaction feature

Like with most Megaways slot games, winning combinations lead to the Chain Reaction feature being triggered. Winning symbols disappear which makes way for new symbols to drop in. This can lead to new wins. The process repeats itself until no more new wins are formed.

Seal Wild features

Look out for Seal Wild symbols appearing on reels 2, 3, 4 and/or 5. When a Seal Wild lands, a random Horseman of the Apocalypse is summoned. The respective Horsemen applies its feature with the Seal Wild transforming into a Horseman Wild: Conquest Wild, War Wild, Famine Wild or Death Wild.

Up to 4 Seal Wild symbols can land on each spin (1 for each Horseman). If multiple Seal Wilds land, the following order applies: Conquest, War, Famine and Death. Here’s what each of the Horsemen offers:

Feature	Description
Conquest	Random wilds rain down onto the middle 4 reels.
War	Splits random symbols in half to increase the number of Megaways.
Famine	2 random reels are chosen and applies the symbol count as a multiplier for the other reel. If a reel has 7 symbols, a 7x multiplier is applied to the other chosen reel.
Death	Randomly drags down 1 or 2 of the middle reels to reveal Skull Wilds with an increasing symbol multiplier. Each next Skull Wild dragged down has a 1-3x high multiplier than the previous highest symbol multiplier.

Free Spins feature

The Judgement Day Megaways slot benefits from a Free Spins feature. It’s triggered by landing 3 Free Spins Scatters anywhere on the reels. 8 free spins are then awarded.

Starting in the Judgement phase, press ‘Judge’ for a random Horseman active on each free spin. Landing Seal Wilds will activate other Horseman randomly as in the base game.

If you land 3 Free Spins Scatters during a free spin, 4 additional free spins will be won. On top of this, another Judgement phase is chosen randomly which applies on subsequent free spins. You can retrigger the feature until all Horsemen have been chosen. This means that an extra 12 free spins can be won (making for 20 in total). If multiple Horsemen activate, they play out in the order outlined above.

Judgement Day Megaways Review Summary: Seal Wilds key to relevation

With amazing imagery and cinematic quality, the Judgement Day Megaways slot is as dark and sinister as slots come. Society in general is intrigued by death with Relax Gaming bringing a Biblical angle to proceedings for a superb experience overall.

In terms of the gameplay, the key is to land Seal Wilds on any of the 4 middle reels. This will summon 1 of the Horseman of the Apocalypse which brings the respective feature into play. Basically, you’ll benefit from random wilds, more ways to win by splitting symbols, multipliers on 2 random reels and nudges which lead to multipliers.

If you manage to land multiple Seal Wilds on the same spin, they can combine to devastating effect. In the Free Spins feature, landing retriggers will see more free spins awarded as well as an extra Horseman in play. This can lead to 100,000 x bet max wins on each spin or free spin. Whilst this can be won on base game spins, it’s much more likely in the free spins.

All in all, the Judgement Day Megaways slot looks great and combines multiple bonus features well, especially in the free spins. With huge wins possible, it should be taken as seriously as the subject matter in my opinion. Let’s just hope it’s not the end of the world eh?!

If you’re looking for huge max win potential and are a fan of the shape-shifting mechanic, Big Time Gaming’s Max Megaways 2 slot comes with 147,620 x bet top wins (and a 96.64% RTP rate). It’s the highest-paying Megaways slot at the time of writing.
