What’s the Deal?
Astro Newts Megaways slot is new from Iron Dog Studio and there’s plenty of stuff going on here – including Expanding Wilds, a Mega Fission Feature, the Pig on the Moon bonus and the Free Spins round. This is our favourite big Ways to Wins game next to the Forgotten Island Megaways slot from All41Studios.
Let’s blast off into space Wombat fans!
Graphics And Theme
Alien newts in space – that’s the theme of this madcap game.
Although the newts look more like friendly bubbles to be honest…
The design is cartoon-style and the reels are set in deep space with whizzing spacecraft, far-off stars, and sprawling nebulas in the background.
Pay Table
Your reel icons are represented by the 10, J, Q, K & A playing card icons, while green asteroids, blue space guns, a red and gold jet pack, and 2 of the cartoon Astro Newts that make up the premium symbols.
Spacey!
The spaceship is your Wild icon and there is no Scatter in play.
Astro Newts Megaways Game Play
Astro Newts Megaways slot has a classic Megaways set up. There are 6 reels, 7 rows and 117,649 ways to win. The volatility is high, and you can win up to 20,000x your bet. OK, that’s not as high as the East Coast vs West Coast slot but that is ridiculous to be honest. Especially when you compare it to more traditional slots such as the Wacky Waves slot from Eyecon.
It’s astronomical!
You can place your bets from 0.10 to 50.00 per spin.
Bonus Features
Expanding Wilds
The green ‘W’ wilds will hit reels 2,3,4 & 5 only and when they do, they will land as stacked covering an entire reel. Bonza!
Mega Fission Feature
Winning symbols over 2 or 3 rows height will split into 2 increasing the ways to win even further.
Pig on the Moon
This random bonus can happen at any time in the base game or Free Spins. 4x normal Wilds or up to 2x Expanding Wilds will be added to the reels to help you make more wins
Free Spins
This bonus is a multi-stage feature that uses a collection mechanic to help you to level up. The Free Spins are triggered when 6x fuel tank symbols are collected on one single spin. You’ll now get 8 spins, starting with the Moon level.
Whenever 4x or more fuel tanks are collected during the round, you’ll move up to the next planet and scoop another 4 extra free spins.
Each of the planets comes with a modifier. Take a look at them:
Moon – Each winning cascade will increase the win multiplier by x1
Mars – Super fuel cells will now land that are worth 2x the regular ones
Jupiter – If a reel lands with the maximum of 7 symbols, it will lock in place for the rest of the free spins.
Saturn – Each winning cascade will increase the win multiplier by x2.
Uranus – The Reels will now pay both ways, doubling the win ways to 235,298.
Bonus Buy
If you get bored of waiting for the Free Spins to trigger, all you have ti do is pay 86x your bet and you’ll set them off automatically…
This isn’t available in the UK though.
Conclusion
Astro Newts Megaways slot is our favourite release from Iron Dog Studio. Ever.
Obviously there’s the Megaways element that ups the ante, but the fun theme, and creative bonus extras all combine to make this one entertaining and lucrative game.
Spin now, Space Wombats!
