Morgana Megaways

Overview

Morgana Megaways is a title coming from the iSoftBet portfolio, featuring the popular engine created by Big Time Gaming, however, in a slightly different manner.

This fantasy-themed features a 6 reel set up with rows of symbols that can span between 2 to 7 in height, which results in paylines between 64 and 117,649!

Though you might expect a Camelot themed game with King Arthur in the main role, here, you will meet the mighty magician from the Arthurian Legends, named Morgan le Fay.

This witch will enchant mystery symbols and scatters and help you get some free spins, with a symbol collection that will increase your bet ways, reward you extra spins, grant great prizes and...

...win you up to 10,000x your stake!

Let's see what this is about!

Is The Theme Interesting?

As we have mentioned in the introduction, this Camelot-themed game replaces Arthur as the main character for a villain. 

Visually, this a quite dark and intense title, but done superbly.

Nevertheless, with Morgana as the main character, this is an enjoyable game even though it features not quite a unique story.

The reels are set in front of an ancient Camelot temple with the symbols on the reels featuring precious stones, dragon eyes, and Morgana's portrait. 

On the low-paying side, you could find crystalline versions of the playing cards from nine to ace.

The soundtrack is eerie and serious as if it was made for some fantasy movie, adding perfectly to the tension.

What About The Betting Options?

To enter this dark Camelot temple, you need to set your bets ranging from just €0.20 a spin, and going up to €20.

Though the title uses a game engine from Big Time Gaming (read about it here), it comes with certain modifications.

Instead of using cascading symbols and the horizontal reel at the top, the game has standard spinning reels, bringing a random number of two to seven symbols into view in every round, with possible reel combinations ranging between 64 and 117,649 ways to win. 

The game has medium to high volatility with an RTP of 96%.

Expectedly, 9-A royals are the lowest-paying symbols, followed by a shining pink gem, a silver dragon, a red dragon eye, and the witch herself.

Though all other symbols pay for at least three of them, Morgana pays out for 2 of a kind, while 6 of them on a line are worth 50 times the stake. 

A spiritual green W is the Wild, appearing on reels 2, 3, 4, or 5, substituting for any other pay symbol to help form a winning combination.

What Special Features Can We Expect?

To continue with the symbols, the game also features Mystery Symbols randomly landing during any phase of the game.

When they appear, they all transform into the same regular pay symbol.

Hearing the sudden cry of the sorceress means the Max Megaways feature is on, which is a spin with the full 117,649 ways to win.

However, you should really focus on the Free Spins Bonus feature which has two ways of triggering it.

The first one is by landing three or more golden grail Scatters that will reward you 10, 15, 20, or 30 free spins respectively, while the other is to use the game's Buy Feature and get straight to the bonus game by paying 80 times your stake.

Either way, now, your goal is to collect regular symbols, but you start with the lowest-paying 9s. After you get 20 of them, you move to the next symbol in value, and so on. 

Each complete collection gives you another advantage, ranging from extra free spins to cash prizes and locked maximum ways to win. 

For example, 20x 9s will reward you 5 extra spins, while 8x Morganas will get you 1 free spin, 500x bet coin win and 117,649 bet ways!

Not bad at all!

What Can We Conclude?

Overall, Morgana Megaways brings you a unique gaming experience, and if you are a fan of fantasy-themed games, you should definitely give it a try!

iSoftBet really enriched their portfolio with this one, with a bold move to use the Megaways mechanics differently, supplemented by some amazing features, especially that of Symbol Collection!
