Play Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Megaways

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Megaways at Heart Bingo is Big Time Gaming's first ever officially branded Megaways slot. Released on 14 November 2018. Built around the iconic blue-lit studio of the world-famous television game show, with the original soundtrack, the unmistakable tense music, and the legendary Hot Seat all carried directly across from the TV format. The slot was the first time Big Time Gaming licensed a major TV brand for one of its Megaways releases, paving the way for the studio's later branded catalogue.

The slot runs at a high volatility. The reel layout sits on the classic Big Time Gaming 6-reel grid with a horizontal Extra Reel sitting above reels 2-5. Between 2 and 7 symbols can appear on each main reel, delivering up to 117,649 ways to win per spin. The maximum win potential reaches 50,000x stake, with the Hot Seat Free Spins round delivering the entire jackpot ceiling.

What separates Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Megaways from other branded Megaways slots is the gamble mechanic built directly into the Free Spins trigger. When the bonus round is triggered, players step into the Hot Seat and decide whether to gamble their starting Free Spins count by answering multiple-choice questions, with safety nets at 10, 20, and 50 spins. Answer correctly and the spin count climbs. Answer wrong before the next safety net and the spins are lost. It's the most accurate translation of the show's gameplay into any TV-themed slot ever released.

The Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Megaways paytable runs the standard Big Time Gaming structure with low-paying playing card royals (9 through Ace) at the bottom and themed gems at the top. The Purple Diamond is the headline base-game symbol, paying 50x for six matching symbols across the reels.

Two special symbols handle the bonus mechanics. The Rainbow Orb Wild only appears on the horizontal Extra Reel above reels 2-5 and substitutes for any standard symbol in winning combinations. The Millionaire Scatter (shown as the TV show logo) can appear anywhere across the main reels and triggers the Hot Seat Free Spins bonus when three or more land in a single spin.

There are also two special icons for players to look out for in Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Megaways. First is the wild, shown as a rainbow orb, which can substitute for any of the aforementioned icons as part of a winning combination. The other is the scatter symbol, displayed as the logo of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, which can be responsible for triggering the main bonus mode. 

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Megaways packs the entire game show experience into two interconnected bonus mechanics. The Reactions feature operates throughout every spin, while the Hot Seat Free Spins round delivers the headline 50,000x max win potential.

Reactions (Cascading Reels)

The base Megaways mechanic. When a winning combination lands, every contributing symbol is removed from the reels and replaced by new symbols dropping in from above. The cascade continues automatically until no further winning combinations form. Chained Reactions can deliver multiple consecutive payouts from a single spin, with the Megaways framework recalculating ways to win across every cascade.

Hot Seat Free Spins Bonus

Triggered by landing three or more Millionaire Scatter symbols anywhere on the main reels in a single spin. Three Scatters award eight initial Free Spins. Four Scatters award 13 Free Spins. Five Scatters award 18 Free Spins. Six Scatters award the maximum 25 starting Free Spins.

The headline twist is the optional gamble mechanic. Before the Free Spins begin, players step into the Hot Seat and decide whether to gamble the starting Free Spins count for a higher tier. The gamble is presented exactly like the TV show: multiple-choice answers with the classic 50:50, Phone a Friend, and Ask the Audience lifelines. Safety nets sit at 10, 20, and 50 Free Spins.

• Answer correctly: The Free Spins count climbs to the next tier.
• Answer incorrectly before the 10-spin safety net: All Free Spins are lost.
• Answer incorrectly after passing a safety net: Free Spins drop back to the most recent safety net level.
• Walk away at any point: Lock in the current Free Spins count and start the bonus round.

Free Spins Win Multiplier

Once the Free Spins begin, the Reactions cascade mechanic carries over with an additional twist: every cascade adds 1x to a running Win Multiplier. The multiplier does not reset between spins and has no upper ceiling. Long cascade chains can push the multiplier deep into double-digit and triple-digit territory by the end of a high-spin round.

Additional Millionaire Scatter symbols that land during the bonus round award extra Free Spins, extending the session. Up to 50 total spins can be achieved per bonus round trigger.
