Mammoth Gold Megaways

The slot game "Mammoth Gold Megaways" from Pragmatic Play transports us to a period when our planet was enveloped in ice and woolly mammoths along with other ancient creatures existed on the land.

Between 2 and 7 symbols can land on each of the six reels in this game, which can result in up to 117,649 ways to win. Additionally, there is a four-position horizontal reel located above the primary grid. The premium symbols include the dodo, bear, warthog, wolf, sabre tooth tiger, and mammoth, while the low-paying symbols consist of the four card suits. Players can receive a payout ranging from 0.5 to 0.6 times the bet by landing six-of-a-kind of the low-paying symbols from the first reel onwards over adjacent reels. The maximum payouts for the premium symbols are 0.75 to 5 times the bet.

Cascading Reels is a feature commonly found in Pragmatic Play’s Megaways slots and is also available in this game. When a player wins, all symbols involved in the win are removed from the reels and replaced with new ones, which could result in another winning combination. If this occurs, the process repeats itself. PartyCasino offers several other Megaways games from Pragmatic Play, including Spin And Score Megaways, Extra Juicy Megaways and Chilli Heat Megaways, all of which can be played at PartyCasino.

The Wild symbol in the game is represented by the rumbling volcano. It can substitute for all regular pay symbols to assist in forming winning combinations. However, it can only appear on the top horizontal reel. Additionally, during the Free Spins round, the Wild symbol can enhance the potential winnings in various ways, as described below.

On the other hand, the Scatter symbol is depicted by a lump of crystal. It has the ability to land anywhere on the game board, and if three or more Scatters appear simultaneously, the Free Spins round will be activated.

The Wild symbol contributes to line wins when it lands and carries a random multiplier of x2 or x3 that is applied to any wins it helps create. The multiplier value is collected in a metre located at the top of the grid. If additional Wilds appear and aid in forming wins during the subsequent Cascade, their values are multiplied and added to the metre before being applied to the win. During the base game, the metre resets after each Cascade sequence.

Players who land 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatter symbols receive a random number of Free Spins between 5-14, 6-14, 7-14, or 8-14 free spins, respectively. If they win fewer than 14 spins, they can gamble them to increase the number. To do so, they must spin a wheel, and if it lands on green, they can increase the number of spins, up to a maximum of 14. However, they lose all their spins if the wheel lands on red.

During the Free Spins round, the Wild multiplier functions the same way as it does in the base game, except the metre does not reset between spins. Additionally, each winning Cascade increases the multiplier by +1, and it applies to all wins, not just those involving a Wild. If players land 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 Scatters during Free Spins, they receive 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6 additional spins, respectively, added to the remaining total.

Mammoth Gold Megaways strikes a balance with its special features and bonuses, avoiding the trap of overcomplicating the gameplay. In fact, the straightforward mechanics are a significant draw for players. However, when the Wild multiplier or Free Spins activate, the meter value and excitement levels skyrocket. It's important to keep in mind that this game is high-volatility, meaning it may take some time before the volcano erupts and things heat up. Thus, setting a loss limit before playing is always wise. Best of luck!
