Slot Details

8 Tigers Gold Megaways is a video slot with six dynamic reels and up to eight rows, randomly creating 64 to 262,144 ways on every spin. Available on desktop, mobile and tablet, you can bet from 0.20 to 20 per spin. Activating the Double and Triple Chance will add +25% and 50% to the bet amount, e.g. a 1.00 stake increases to 1.25 or 1.50 credits, respectively. The game has maximum volatility (5/5) with an RTP of 96.50%. Using Double and Triple Chance or the Bonus Buy options will slightly increase the RTP values.

A structured background resembling a traditional Asian art canvass is fronted by the large game area that is inherent to Megaways slots. All reels can display up to eight symbols, among them typical mythological icons such as Yin-Yang, lions, Phoenix birds and turtles, all held in a golden frame. Rounding off the design is a traditional Chinese soundtrack.

The pay symbols start at the low end with card royals from 9 through to A, awarding 0.5x to 1x your bet for a single six of a kind. They are followed by red packets, green turtles, blue fish, red lions and purple Phoenix birds. Hit six across the reels to win 1.5x to 10x your stake. The tiger is the wild, appearing on reels 2 to 5 only and substituting for all regular symbols. Lastly, Yin-Yang icons act as scatters. Three to six will award a coin win between 3x and 50x your bet.

8 Tigers Gold Megaways Slot Features

Skywind fans might still have Alive Megaways on their mind as that slot turned out to be quite the blockbuster, which usually puts more pressure on a developer to do even better with their next creation. Cue in 8 Tigers Gold Megaways, an Asian-themed slot oozing with typical symbols like lions, turtles or red packets and featuring a whole myriad of extras and features that should resonate well with existing fans and new players.

Before doing your first spin, you will need to decide whether to activate the Double or Triple Chance feature. As the name suggests, the former will double your chances to trigger the main event while the latter triples them. Naturally, it comes at a cost, 25% for the Double and 50% for the Triple, e.g. a 1 credit bet would increase to 1.25 and 1.50 respectively.

Core to the gameplay is the Megaways game engine although on this occasion Skywind decided to forgo the cascading symbol mechanic. Instead, we get straight spinning reels, each with a random number of 2 to 8 symbols on every spin. Altogether, that will create between 64 to 262,144 ways to win in each game round. Wins are awarded for three to six matching symbols landing on adjacent reels from the left only.

Two random features in the base game will keep you in suspense as they can trigger at any time. Fa Fa Fa SuperWays will do so at the start of a spin, forcing the reels to carry the maximum of 8 symbols each and delivering a spin with the full 262,144 ways active. In turn, the Tiger Multiplier can trigger only when a Tiger Wild is part of a winning combination, awarding a random multiplier of x2, x3, x5, x7, x10, x13 or x25 that will be applied to the payout from the combo only.

Land three or more Yin-Yang scatters on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel to trigger the 8 Tigers Free Spins Feature. There are eight options with varying amounts of spins and starting values for an increasing win multiplier. The selected multiplier will increment by its value after every win that contains a Tiger Wild symbol, e.g. x25 will increase to x50, x75 and so on.

• 25 Free Spins with an x2 starting Tiger Wild multiplier.
• 20 Free Spins with an x3 starting Tiger Wild multiplier.
• 15 Free Spins with an x5 starting Tiger Wild multiplier.
• 12 Free Spins with an x7 starting Tiger Wild multiplier.
• 10 Free Spins with an x10 starting Tiger Wild multiplier.
• 8 Free Spins with an x13 starting Tiger Wild multiplier.
• 5 Free Spins with an x25 starting Tiger Wild multiplier.
• Mystery Choice: The game will randomly pick a number of Free Spins and starting wild multiplier from the values listed above.

The round begins with the selected multiplier, which will increase by its value every time the Tiger Wild lands in a winning combination. Beware, the current factor is applied once to wins involving the Tiger Wild only, even when more than one wild appears on a spin. During Free Games, Tiger Wild’s can appear on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5. The round can be retriggered by landing three or more Yin-Yang scatters on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel. Three, four, five or six scatters will award an extra 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 spins, respectively.

Once you played the Free Spins, the game will lead you to the Play It Your Way screen. This is basically a gamble to get more free spins by risking all or a part of your winnings. Five tubes appear, each marked with a number of extra spins from 1 to 10 that can be won as well as coloured indicators for the chances to win the respective gamble.

You can decide at any time to collect your full win, bank a part of your win and risk only the remainder or gamble the full amount. This can be repeated up to eight times. Collecting will instantly end the Play It Your Way feature and lead you back to the main game.

To bet the full amount, simply click on any of the five tubes and the horizontal indicators will move up and down before randomly stopping on either red or green. Landing on red will see you lose the entire win, so some caution is recommended. Stopping on green will award the extra free spins shown on the tube and will return you to the free spins screen to continue the round with the previously achieved multiplier.

You can also opt to risk only a part of your winnings by banking the other part. Use the sliding mechanism or the keypad to choose the amount you want to bank, which will then be placed in the small Bank It display in the top left corner (desktop), safe from any further gambles. The green/red proportions will change according to the amount left to risk. You can now choose again one of the five tubes to start the gamble. Losing it instantly returns you to the main screen and pays the banked amount while winning the gamble will again see you continue the Free Spins feature with the achieved multiplier from the original round intact.

In all cases, losing a gamble will forfeit the risked amount. Although, there is a random chance for a consolation prize to be awarded or the Play It Your Way round to be reinstated.

8 Tigers Gold Megaways comes with two Bonus Buy options for guaranteed entry into the Free Spins round. For 100x your bet, the next spin will trigger the standard 8 Tigers Gold Free Spins with eight choices. For 328x your bet, you can activate the 8 Tigers Gold Mystery Feature for a random combination of 15, 20 or 25 free spins with a starting wild multiplier of x10, x13 or x25. Pick from two sets of 3 cards to reveal our selections.
