NetEnt Announces The Wish Master™ Megaways™ Slot
Wild Casino

release of Taco Fury XXXtreme™ on June 8, NetEnt, the Stockholm-based subsidiary of Evolution Gaming Group, has launched  The Wish Master™ Megaways™, the sequel to the original hit, Wish Master, which is a genie-themed slot featuring the great genie called Wish Master, who can make all the player’s wishes come true.

Mystical visual:

True to its name, the main theme of the slot is the aforementioned mighty Wish Master, who, with the help of extraordinary features, leads the player to a big win. The game takes place in a cave where the ground is filled with golden and shimmering objects that feel fragile to the touch. Additionally, the game can be played on any device.

Unlike the first version, this sequel is boosted by Big Time Gaming’s Megaways™ mechanic, which works on a six-reel structure with the added addition of an extra horizontal wheel. Simply put, it’s a system that allows for a virtually unlimited number of potential winning combinations on any given spin, which for Megaways™ slots means they are equipped with 117,649 ways to win on each spin. This is achieved by using a system of cascading reels and random multipliers, which means that the number of potential winning combinations can change with each spin.

To win, players must form a combination of 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels beginning from the reel furthest to the left, triggering a cascading feature on the dynamic grid of 6 reels and 2-7 rows.

The basic low-value symbols are 10, J, Q, K and A, while the high-value bonus symbols are bejeweled animals in blue, orange, green and red. In addition, the game has high volatility, a default RTP of 96.07%, and a maximum win of up to 27018x a player’s bet.

Slot features:

Cascade – as soon as the player makes a winning combination, this feature is triggered. Once activated, all the symbols that participated in the win will vanish from the reels, allowing new ones to land and fill the empty spots. Moreover, this feature lasts as long as the player generates new wins.

Wild Symbol – the Wild, aka the symbol displaying the word WILD along with a burning flame, replaces any paying symbol on the reels, except the Scatter, thus helping to create more winning combinations.

Wish Master Features – this feature is triggered when the player lands a Scatter, aka a scroll with a lamp. As soon as it is triggered, the player automatically receives 5 free spins and is then randomly rewarded one of four wild features such as: Extra Wild, Wild Reel, Multiplier and Random Wild. However, if the player lands a new Scatter throughout these free spins, they will receive an additional wild feature, with a maximum of 3 active at the same time.

Each time the player gets a Scatter, the free spins will reset to 5 again. Furthermore, if 3 wild features are already triggered, the first one triggered will be replaced by a new one.

Extra Wild – this feature will show the type of paying symbol which will further cause each of these symbol types to convert into Wild Symbols.

Wild Reel – the entire reel, if a Scatter lands, will convert into an expanded Wild Symbol.

Multiplier – the player receives a 2x or 3x win multiplier and may even manage to trigger both simultaneously for a 6x win multiplier.

Random Wild – during this feature, the player will receive 2 to 5 Wilds placed on the reels with every new spin.

Evolution, said: “The team’s hard work resulted in the revival of a great NetEnt classic, enhanced with Big Time Gaming’s ground-breaking Megaways mechanics. The familiar genie entertains players with a handful of special features, accompanied by up to 117,649 ways to win. Players can, once again, enter the lair of the Wish Master and see what he has in store.”
