Slot Details

Into the Wild Megaways is a video slot with six dynamic reels, 2 to 7 symbols and 1,024 to 117,649 ways to win. Pays are awarded for landing three to six matching symbols on adjacent reels from left to right only. You can venture into the wilderness on desktop, tablet or mobile from 0.20 to 10 credits per spin (up to 100 based on operator). The game has medium to high volatility with an RTP of 96.09%.

A typical scene from the vast and rugged plains in the American West serves as the background to the Megaways game window that is even larger on this occasion thanks to the two horizontal trackers. Various wild animals typically found in the region including vultures, bears and bison populate the reels while a tribal soundtrack provides the main audio to the gameplay.

The pay symbols start at the low end with card royals from 9 through to A in Western style, awarding 0.5x to 1.5x your stake. They are followed by wolves, bison, eagles and bears. Hit six across the reels to win 1.75x to 10x your stake. An animal paw on a rock and marked with the word itself is the wild, appearing in the two horizontal trackers only and substituting for all regular symbols. A golden bear icon acts as the scatter.

Into the Wild Megaways Slot Features

Into the Wild Megaways is the next addition to Blueprint’s sprawling Megaways catalogue. It will join some of the most popular slots featuring the BTG-trademarked game engine including Buffalo Rising Megaways, Rick and Morty Megaways or the smash hit Primal Megaways. Let’s take a closer look at what the creative team has included on this trip to the rugged American plains.

Before starting to play, you may want to think whether to switch the Wild Bet on. It will cost 25% extra, e.g. a 1.00 stake increases to 1.25 credits, and will double the odds of triggering the Free Spins. Beware though, activating the extra bet does not guarantee a feature trigger. The RTP remains unchanged at 96.09%.

Courtesy of the Megaways game engine, the number of ways is randomly determined for every spin sequence by selecting between two and seven pay symbols for reels 1 & 6 as well as two to five pay symbols for reels 2 to 5. Additionally, the game has two extra horizontal trackers at the top and bottom with four positions, extending from reel two to five, where more symbols appear on every spin, leading to anything from 1,024 to 117,649 ways. Winning symbols cascade, making room for new ones to tumble into place. The process is repeated as long as more wins occur.

Spicing up the trip into the wilderness is the Replicator Reels modifier. Land matching symbols on the same reel in the top and bottom tracker to see all instances on the respective reel turn into wilds or the entire reel if the triggering symbol is the wild itself.

Any golden scatter landing will be collected in the display to the right (desktop). The symbol will disappear and a new one will cascade into place. Collecting three scatters by the time a game round concludes will trigger 8 Free Spins. Any further scatter adds +2 spins, up to a maximum of 14.

The round starts in true Megaways fashion with a win multiplier at x1 that will increase by x1 after every winning cascade, no limits. The Replicator Reels modifier is also available during the feature. Land three or more scatters for a retrigger. The game will automatically award once +4 spins if the total win from the round is below 10x your bet.

Players in unrestricted jurisdictions are able to bypass the base game and head straight into the Free Spins by using the Bonus Buy option. Hitting the button will allow them to purchase a feature for a one-time bet of 150x the stake. Once confirmed, a bonus wheel will appear, awarding one turn to award anything between 5 to 20 Free Spins. There is no gamble or any other way to increase the won free spins from the wheel. The RTP increases slightly to 96.45%.

Final Verdict

Of all Megaways licensees, Blueprint Gaming has probably made the most use of the game engine. Their portfolio comprises dozens of titles, some with truly new modifiers or mechanics. On Into the Wild Megaways, that would be the Replicator Reels although I have some faint memory of seeing it on some other slot.

Well, either way, it does add some suspense and spice to the gameplay and could make a big difference to the payout, especially when combined with a high multiplier in the Free Spins. Overall, up to 50,000x can be won, although that is limited to the usual Blueprint Gaming cap of 250,000 credits.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can I win Free Spins on Into The Wild Megaways?

Yes, you will need to collect minimum three scatters in the meter to the right of the game window to trigger the Free Spins feature. Three to six scatters will award 8 to 20 Free Spins.

2. Will a reel turn always fully wild when the Replicator Reels modifier is triggered?

No. The entire reel will turn wild if the triggering symbols are the wild. Should a standard pay symbol trigger the modifier, then only instances of the same symbol on the respective reel will transform into wilds
