Chilli Heat Megaways Slot Review – Pragmatic Play

It has been a couple of days since my last Pragmatic Play slot review, the last was for the game titled ‘Rise Of Giza PowerNudge’. Which has a max win capped at 4,000x and a Free Spins feature with an increasing multiplier. Today we are learning all about an exciting game sequel. Titled ‘Chilli Heat Megaways’, set to release August 26th across all sites.

The original game is ‘Chilli Heat’, which was originally released on 12th January 2018 across all sites. Both games have visual aspects inspired by Mexico. The game background looks to be set in a sunny Mexican town, with various buildings and potted cactus. There are other details to look out for, such as the premium symbols represented by tequila and chilli sauce. I love that the artwork has that fresh modern look and is still well detailed.

Chilli Heat Megaways has a setup of 6 reels by 2-8 rows, this includes up to 200,704 Megaways. This slot is high variance with a set RTP of 96.50% and a max win capped at 5,000x. You can bet from £0.20 – £100.

There are 12 symbols in total, this includes 6 low paying symbols. These are represented by 9, 10, J, Q, K and A. There are also 4 premium symbols, these are represented by tequila shots, chilli sauce, a chihuahua and a man with a guitar wearing a sombrero. In addition to these regular symbols is a wild and money symbol. The highest paying symbol is the sombrero-wearing character premium, which pays 10x for 6 across all reels. Wilds substitute for all symbols except the money symbol and appears on reels 2 – 5.

Chilli Heat Megaways Features

There is a Tumble Mechanic always active during spins. All symbols part of winning combinations will be removed from the reel set. With symbols falling to the bottom of the grid and new symbols falling from above to fill empty spaces. Tumbling will continue during spins until no more winning combinations occur.

Landing 6 or more Money symbols land during a base game spin will trigger the ‘Respin Feature’. Normal symbols will fade away and only Money Symbols from the initial trigger will remain. Reels are replaced with special reels only containing money symbols and empty spaces. When the round starts reels 1 and 6 will be locked and can be unlocked with special symbols. The number of symbols on each reel is equal to the grid that started the round. You start with 3 respins, all money symbols that land during these spins will remain on the reel set until the end. Every time a money symbol lands respins will reset to 3, spins continue until there are no more respins or the reel set is filled. There are also special symbols that can hit on the top reel, which can be seen below.
