Aztec Gold Megaways

The Aztecs, among other things, have been known for the vast supplies of gold that they used in their daily lives and to trade with foreign explorers. In this slot review, we are taken to the ancient Aztec Empire, courtesy of Isoftbet, and to make things more exciting, the Megaways mechanic has been included in the mix. Keep reading below to find out more about this exciting Megaways slot.

The slot features a beautifully designed Aztec theme, which takes place on one of the famous Aztec pyramids. The animations have a cartoon feel and work well to bring the theme to life. You will find a dark green background which adds to the jungle vibe that the developers were going for and is contrasted by the vibrant images of gold.

As this is a Megaways slot you will find up to 117,649 possible ways to win when the maximum number of symbols are present on the reels. Bets are placed from 10 cents up to a maximum of 10 CAD per spin, while the max win per spin is capped at 192000x your stake. Aztec Gold Megaways comes with a high volatility rating with an RTP of 95.99%.

On the reels, you can expect to find low paying symbols, high paying symbols as well as bonus symbols. The low paying symbols on the paytable include playing card symbols from 9-Ace. The highest best paying of these is the Ace symbols which awards 1.75x your stake for a combination of 6 matching symbols. 

Moving up the paytable are the premium symbols which include sacred Aztec animals such as a falcon, snake and jaguar. The highest paying premium symbol is the Aztec god symbol which will award a generous payout of 50x your stake for landing 6 of a kind. 

Bonus symbols in Aztec Gold Megaways include the Sun Disk Scatter and Wild Symbols. The Sun Disk Scatter symbol triggers the respin bonus round if you manage to land five or more. The wild symbol substitutes for any other symbol on the reels, except for the scatter, to help boost payouts of combinations. 

Aztec Gold Megaways features the cascading reels game mechanic. This feature involves removing symbols that participate in a winning combination while new symbols cascade into their place. The Cascades continue until no new combinations are formed, after which you will be required to set your bet and spin again. 

The main bonus feature in Aztec Gold Megaways is the Aztec Gold Cash Respins. This bonus feature is triggered by landing five or more scatter symbols on the reels. Only Sun Disk scatters are in play; only this time they will have multiplier values attached. The value of all the scatter is added together, and at the end of the bonus round, you will be awarded a payout accordingly. 

On top of the usual scatter multiplier symbols, there are also Mini, Major and Mega Multipliers that can come into play. There are two ways to trigger these; during the bonus round, the multiplier bonus can be triggered by landing a full stack of sun disk symbols on the reels. Alternatively, they can be activated by landing the scatter symbol with the mini, major or mega title on them. The mini, major and mega multiplier award payouts of 30x, 100x or 1000x your stake (respectively).

This is IsoftBet's first attempt at a Megaways slot, and they have delivered! Aztec Gold Megaways features everything you need in a slot game, from bonus features to a quality design. The cascading reels feature is another great touch that makes gameplay exciting and works well with the Megaways Mechanic.
