Chilli Heat Megaways, a dynamic video slot game developed by Pragmatic Play, offers players up to 200,704 ways to win. Set on a vibrant 6-reel grid, this game features a fluctuating 2-8 row layout, adding an extra layer of excitement to each spin.
The game's symbols maintain a familiar theme from its predecessor, with the lower-paying symbols represented by the classic 9-A card ranks. The higher-paying symbols include thematic icons such as a shot of tequila, a fiery bottle of hot sauce, an adorable chihuahua, and a charismatic mariachi man. Landing a full six of these premium symbols across the reels can yield a payout ranging from 1.5 to 10 times the player's stake. Wild logos play a crucial role in this game, though they don't carry a value of their own. These wilds, which appear only on reels 2 through 5, substitute for all regular paying symbols, enhancing the potential for winning combinations.
After a win in the base game, the tumble feature activates, removing the winning symbols and allowing new or remaining symbols to fall into place. This can create additional winning combinations, perpetuating the tumble feature until no further wins occur. The Ante Bet option, available at any time during the base game, offers an intriguing twist. By paying an additional 25% on top of the standard bet, players can double their chances of triggering the coveted respin feature. The money symbols are central to unlocking the respin feature. These symbols can land on any of the main reels and take on a random value on each spin. Collecting six money symbols triggers the respins feature, which unfolds on the same grid but with all symbols except the initiating money bag symbols removed. The bonus round begins with three spins, with reels 1 and 6 initially locked. Any new money symbols that land on the main grid are held in place, resetting the respins counter, and potentially leading to substantial wins.
