How To Play It
What you need to do, is select the wager for the next spin. $0.20 is the minimum, and $20 is the maximum bet allowed.
In exchange, the game gives you a Megaways system, licensed from Big Time Gaming. It has a random number of symbols delivered to each reel, with up to 7 possible. This varies the number of ways to win tremendously, and they will go as high as 117,649 Megaways. 2-3 or more matching symbols, landing left to right on adjacent reels, will form combinations.
Special Features
Once a combination does form, the Rolling Reels follow next, and they could lead to additional wins coming. They work by removing the first wave of winning symbols, and bringing new symbols in. The Rolls keep coming, if you continue to get wins.
There are Mystery Symbols that can show up, taking the form of Treasure Chests. They will reveal a random symbol, which can’t be a scatter, only the regulars are considered.
A big focus of the game is going to be on the Firepot Jackpot, which requires Skull scatters appearing a minimum of 3 times in a single round. The best reward comes when you get 8 Skulls, with a 2,000x jackpot paid then.
Another one that’s important, is the Diamond scatter. 4 to 6 are needed, before you can claim access to the free spins. The exact number is decided through a Bonus Wheel, but you can get up to 4 extra rounds on top of that, if you had more scatters to trigger it.
There are two levels to the Bonus Wheel. The outer wheel will spin to decide on the number of free spins, with 10 to 30 possible. Multipliers range from 1x to 3x, and they apply to all wins of the free spins, even to the Firepot (going from 2,000x to 6,000x).
Maximum Payouts
Thanks to all the multipliers that are used, and applied even to Firepot jackpots, the slot is going to be capable of paying very well once you reach the free spins. There is a cap on how much it can deliver, and it’s set to 19,000x the stake.
The cost that’s associated with that big prize, is the high volatility of the slot. RTP is above average though, at 96.86%.
Summary
8 Golden Skulls of Holly Roger Megaways is a very good game, with excellent rewards, a decent mix of special features, and one of the better RTP settings you can find in a slot of this type.
