Slot Details

Big Bad Wolf Megaways is a cascading video slot with six dynamic reels, featuring 2 to 7 rows and 324 to 117,649 ways to win (more to that shortly). Available on desktop, tablet or mobile from 0.20 to 20 credits or 0.40 to 40 credits with Super Stake activated. The game has high volatility with a default RTP of 96.05%. Beware, lower RTP settings at 94.11% and 90.19% can be offered. Always check the help file to find out which versions you will be playing.

Loading the game will see us returning to the seemingly tranquil country meadow with lush greenery and blue skies. The perfect habitat for the three little pigs and naturally a just as perfect hunting ground for the bad wolf. A pointed soundtrack is accompanied by the usual reel and win count noises.

The pay symbols start at the low end with card royals from J through to A, all held on wooden boards and awarding 0.4x to 0.5x your bet for a single six of a kind. They are followed by straw, wood and brick icons that are associated with the three little pigs in blue, green and red clothes. Hit five across the reels to win 1x to 6x your stake. The wolf is the top payer with 50x bet for five.

A wooden tool set marked with the word itself is the wild, appearing on reels two to five only and substituting for all regular pay symbols. The signature feature of the original is the wild transformation that will see the three little pig characters turn into wilds on the four centre reels as a spin progresses. Lastly, the moon icon acts as the bonus scatter.

And we have another game provider jumping on the Megaways train, albeit at a very late stage, one could say the train might be close to its final destination considering there are some 200 Megaways slots scattered in online casinos. Some memorable, some epic and some rather disappointing. In the hope of being in the first two categories, Quickspin opted for one of its most successful games for their Megaways debut and have given Big Bad Wolf and its Christmas Special sibling the dynamic reels upgrade. Reason enough to take a closer look.

We’ll start as usual with the Megaways engine that has dynamic reels, cascading symbols and reactive wins at its core. The exact number of active bet ways is randomly determined at the start of every spin by selecting 2 to 7 symbols for reels one and six as well as 2 to 6 symbols for the four centre reels.

Additionally, an extra scroll on top is spinning horizontally symbols into view abeam reels two to five. Altogether, it creates a virtually unlimited number of possible reels&rows scenarios between 324 and 117,649 ways to win that will make each spin a unique occurrence. A display on top shows the current active ways.

Landing two to six matching symbols or in combination with wilds on adjacent reels starting from the left constitutes a winner. All symbols from the combo will be removed before new symbols drop into the empty spaces. The reactions will continue as long as more wins occur after a cascade. Payouts are accumulated from all tumbles and credited in one amount before the next spin starts.

Big Bad Wolf Megaways Wild Transformation

Fans of the original will easily remember the main modifier mechanic on Big Bad Wolf – the Piggy Wilds – that has the potential to turn the three little pigs into wilds. On the Megaways version, one little pig will turn wild after every two successive winning tumbles, starting with the red, followed by the green and blue-dressed pigs. All transformed Piggy Wilds appearing on the four centre reels will act as wilds for the duration of the spin. They will turn back to standard pay symbol between spins in the base game and bonus feature.

Big Bad Wolf Megaways Free Spins

Having three Moon bonus scatters in view by the time a spin sequence concludes will trigger the Bring Down The House Bonus Game with 11 free spins. The round starts with an x1 win multiplier, which will increase by x1 after every winning reaction, no limits. Two collection meters will appear in the top left corner (desktop) to advance you to the next level.

  • 3 Collected Moon Scatters: Awards + 3 free spins plus adds x5 to the current win multiplier.
  • 6 Collected Moon Scatters: Awards + 3 free spins plus adds x10 to the current win multiplier.
  • Every Moon Scatters thereafter: Awards +1 free spin, no limits.

The Bonus Buy button is making a return, allowing players to purchase a Blow Down The House Free Spins bonus round at a fixed cost of 90x their bet. Although, it will be available only in jurisdictions where they are not yet restricted. The RTP is slightly higher at 96.44% for the default version. The other two variants will also have a similarly increased RTP. The bonus feature plays in an identical fashion as after an organic trigger.

Final Verdict

While seemingly simple and benign, Big Bad Wolf Megaways is a very playable slot with a likeable theme, well-known modifiers and a tantalizing win potential that peaks at well over 20,000 times your bet. Overall, Quickspin’s Megaways debut should please most players, especially since the built quality is superior and the execution is flawless as we have come to expect from the Swedish studio.
