Slot Details
Tiki Infinity Reels featuring Megaways is a video slot with three reels as default, each with two to five symbols, with more reels being added as long as a winning combo is improved. Pays are awarded for minimum three matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the first. The number of reels and bet ways can grow without limits during the gameplay, courtesy of the two reel mechanics (more to that shortly). You can journey to the Pacific island on desktop, tablet or mobile from 0.30 to 24 credits per spin. The game has very high volatility (5/5)with an RTP of 96.07% and a hit rate of roughly 1:3.8 spins.
Loading the game will take you to a serene pacific island scene with sandy beaches, palm trees, crystal-clear waters and lush greenery. A smoldering volcano will come into view once the Infinity Reels start moving to the right. Tiki masks and royals carved with tribal artwork populate the reels while a Polynesian soundtrack will keep your hips swinging.
The pay symbols start at the low end with card royals from 9 through to A carved from coloured wood, awarding 0.033x to 0.1 for a single win way. They are followed by four Tiki mask in green, blue, red and purple colours. The latter is the most valuable with 0.166x your bet for a single win way. The golden Tiki is the wild symbol, substituting for all regular symbols while a volcano icon acts as the scatter. Coins wins are awarded for minimum five scatters at 0.2x bet each.
Tiki Infinity Reels feat. Megaways Slot Features
Tiki Infinity Reels feat. Megaways is what you could call a sister game to its older sibling featuring Norse gods. Odin Infinity Reels feat. Megaways was the first creation to combine the two popular reel mechanics, delivering virtually unlimited row and bet way variations from spin to spin. ReelPlay is following that up with a slightly less volatile version and a Polynesian theme. Do not let the serene setting fool you though as the smoldering volcano can erupt at any moment to deliver wins of up to 10,000x bet.
All spins start with three reels and the Megaways engine randomly selecting two to five symbols per reel. To score a win you will need to land matching symbols on all three reels starting from the left. The Infinity Reels mechanic will trigger once that happens, or if you hit minimum one scatter on reel three, adding an extra reel is added to the right, again with a random number of two to five symbols. The new reel will spin once while the others are held to potentially land more matching symbols or scatters in which case the process is repeated, leading to an infinite number of ways to win.
Simultaneously, a multiplier is activated the soon one reel is added. It starts at x1 and increases by x1 for each further reel, again, ad infinitum in synch with the number of added reels. There is no limit to the multiplier or the number of reels and Megaways. It will all come to an abrupt end when no new symbols or scatters land on the added reel that further improves the winning combo and the format is reset to the default 3×3. In the base game, the multiplier is also set back to x1 between spins.
Once a game round ends, wins are calculated by multiplying the total ways of winning symbols in view with the symbol value from the pay table and then multiplied again by the achieved round multiplier. As shown in the example above, we had a total of four ways 9s and wild symbols which yielded 4×0.033 = 0.133 credits before the round multiplier of x3 was applied, resulting in a win of 0.133×3 = 0.4 credits. The game window resets to the default 3×3 format before the next spin sequence.
There is one more twist that makes a return on this slot. Adding 12 or more reels within one spin sequence will award a jackpot pay of 888x your bet. However, it can be won only once per spin and will not be multiplied by the overall round multiplier.
Hitting five or more volcano scatters will trigger 10 Free Spins. During the feature, +1 free spin is awarded for every two added reels in a single free spin. Plus having at least five scatters in view will retrigger +4 free spins. Once the round starts, the win multiplier from the triggering spin will be transferred to become your starting multiplier and will never reset until the end of the feature. Instead, it will increase by the x1 for each added reel in a free spin sequence, ad infinitum. The feature will end when you run out of free spins or reach the win cap of 10,000x bet.
Final Verdict
While Tiki Infinity Reels feat. Megaways is indeed a slightly toned-down version of its older sibling, it is just as playable. The main difference is the lack of the wheels for the free spins round where the multiplier increment and number of free spins were determined. Instead, you are heading now instantly into the bonus round.
In line with the relaxed atmosphere, the maximum win potential peaks at only 10,000x your bet. While only half compared to the original, it is still a win anyone would love to bring back from the tropical paradise. Aloha!
