How to play Who Wants to be a Millionaire Megaways
Setting up
Who Wants to be a Millionaire Megaways is a video slot by Big Time Gaming, released in 2020. To start, choose a stake within the limits your casino offers and press spin. Each spin is independent, and its outcome is decided by a random number generator.
How wins work
Wins are formed with the Megaways mechanic. The number of symbols on each reel changes every spin, so the number of ways to win is different on every spin. Features listed for this game: Free Spins, Wilds, Scatters and Lifelines. Free Spins: a bonus round of spins that cost nothing, usually triggered by scatters. Wilds: wild symbols substitute for others to complete wins. The paytable inside the game shows what each symbol pays at your current stake.
What to expect
Volatility is rated high. The RTP is 96.24%. RTP is a long-term average over a very large number of spins, not a promise for a single session. Details that are not listed here have not been confirmed by our sources yet, so this guide leaves them out rather than guessing.
