Six reels, 7 or 8 symbols high
Page 1 describes the Megaways reels: reels 1 and 6 can hold up to 7 symbols, reels 2 to 5 up to 8, and the top row of reels 2 to 5 spins independently from right to left. Wins are any adjacent combination from the leftmost reel, and the page puts the maximum at 200704 ways.
The red-armoured warrior in the horned helmet is the top symbol and the only one that pays for two: RM2.00 for 2 up to RM40.00 for 6 at a total bet of RM2.00.
Wilds that double the win
The Wild is a dark armoured figure with WILD across it. It lands only on reels 2 to 6, replaces every symbol except the Scatter, and any winning combination that uses it is multiplied by 2x, in the base game and in free spins. No Wild pay of its own is printed.
Tumbles that keep the shape
Winning symbols are paid and cleared away; what remains slides down and fresh symbols fill the gaps from above. Page 2 adds that new symbols are of the same size as the initial spin result, before tumbles. The balance is updated after the last tumble.
The Scatter and the WHEEL OF FORTUNE
The red and gold dragon emblem is the Scatter. It lands on all reels and pays by itself: 5x total bet for 3, 10x for 4, 20x for 5 and 100x for 6. Three or more anywhere start free spins.
First the wheel spins and awards a random mix of free spins and a multiplier; that multiplier applies to the total win of every free spin. Three or more Scatters during the round turn the wheel again, stacking its spins and multiplier on top of what you have, with no retrigger limit. The rules pages do not list the values on the wheel.
Ante bet, buy option and cap
Page 3 lists two bet multipliers: 20x for normal play and 25x for the ante bet. With the 25x ante bet on, Buy Free Spins is switched off; otherwise the round can be bought for 100x the current total bet. This guide suggests neither. The maximum win is 5,000x bet.
Before you spin
Read the paytable at your own bet and decide on a budget first. Keep stakes small at first and stop when the budget is used up. Each spin is random.
