The theme of Bandit Megaways is centered around the Wild West. I was greeted with stunning visuals as soon as I entered the game’s User Interface. The Bandit, with a big muscular build, is right there to welcome you and give you an idea of what you are going to come across during the gameplay. The background is some old-looking houses situated in a desert with strong winds, which made me feel like I was on a mission to do something big. Overall, I liked the theme, and it would feel great and refreshing for any Robin Hood fan.

The graphics of Bandit Megaways are sharp and detailed. In comparison to other Western-themed slots, the graphics are not groundbreaking and have some generic elements. Even after that, the designers put good efforts into designing the related symbols, including cowboy hats, pistols, gold coins, and, of course, more than one Bandit. The Bandit guarding the reels is nicely animated and keeps shooting with his pistol every now and then, which is fun to look at.

No prizes for guessing what the soundtrack of Bandit Megaways feels like. Yes, you are right; it has all the elements a Wild West-themed slot should include. Gunshots and Ricochets, Western Showdown Music, and the Coin Clinks. The music intensifies during the winnings, free spins, and other features to match the energy of players.

The animations are no different from other similar slots. No doubt they are smooth and bring life to the reels, but they don’t bring anything new and fresh to the table. However, when I was in the free spins round, the animations felt more dynamic and engaging. The instance when the screen shows the total winnings is very well designed. It has the Bandit riding a horse with a rifle in one hand and a whip in the other, looking sophisticated and nice.

The theoretical RTP of Bandit Megaways is 96.55%. The RTP varies during the “Buy Free Spins” and “Buy Super Free Spins”, which is 96.54%. The RTP is above the industry average and offers good returns to players.

The maximum win amount is 5,000x the bet and as soon as the player achieves that, the round ends. Even during the free spins, once the player wins 5,000x of the bet amount, the wins are rewarded, and the round ends immediately. The number of possible ways a player can win is the most interesting part, and that is an enormous 117649, yes, the “Mega” ways!

Bandit Megaways is characterized as a high volatility slot, and players can expect less frequent wins but larger payouts as and when they come. You’ll find some of the highest volatility slots in the best online casinos across the world.

The unique layout of 6 vertical reels and four horizontal ones offers a fresh and dynamic gaming experience. Players have to choose a bet from 0.20 to 240 and hit the spin button to start the game. The symbols pay from left to right on adjacent reels. Here is more information about the symbols and their respective payouts:

Apart from these symbols, there is a scatter symbol which can appear on all reels. Landing 4,5, or 6 of these symbols triggers the free spins feature.

The game has several features like Tumble feature, Multiplier feature, etc. Here, I have broken down every feature for your better understanding:

Tumble feature

As soon as you win during a spin, the symbols get washed out and get replaced by new ones. This will go on as long as the wins keep coming. The winnings would add up. Although, during this the scatter symbols will stick to their places if the process goes on.

Multiplier Feature

The bomb symbol represents the multiplier. The symbol can appear on any reel and during tumble feature as well as regular spins and free spins. It sticks to the place during the tumble feature. The symbol generates a random value of 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, or even 50x, 100x, and 500x, making the winnings really big. At the end, the values of multiplier symbols add up and the total winning gets multiplied by that number. The bigger the multiplier, the better the earnings.

Free Spins

Getting 4, 5, or 6 scatter symbols anywhere on the screen would activate the Free Spins feature. The more the scatters, the greater number of free spins you’ll get.

• 4 scatter symbols: 15 Free Spins
• 5 scatter symbols: 20 Free Spins
• 6 scatter symbols: 25 Free Spins

If you get 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatters during free spins, you’ll get additional free spins.

• 3 scatter symbols: 15 Extra Free Spins
• 4 scatter symbols: 20 Extra Free Spins
• 5 scatter symbols: 25 Extra Free Spins
• 6 scatter symbols: 30 Extra Free Spins

The Free Spins feature occurs in a special saloon, making it more exciting for the player.
