Celtic fantasy is the theme on offer in the Rainbow Wilds Megaways slot, a 6 reel game from Iron Dog Studio where the number of ways to win ranges from between 64 and 117,649 on each spin. Look out here for Mushroom Wilds which can expand and bring an increasing multiplier into play. 

On the reels you’ll find A to 9 royals covered in vines and creepers. They’re joined by a glass of beer, a heart, a horseshoe, an elf and a white hart. The bearded leprechaun is the most rewarding symbol. This pays 5, 10, 30, 60 or 100 x your total stake if you land 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 in combination. There are also 3 different types of wild symbol. The standard wild can land anywhere apart from reel 1.

Like most Megaways slots, Rainbow Wilds Megaways has plenty going on:

Cascading Reels 

Cascading - or Tumbling - Reels is a mechanic we see in the vast majority of Megaways slots, and it’s become, clearly, a popular choice with both players and game developers. Whenever a win is formed, the symbols that were involved with that win drop away off the screen, and new symbols then drop down to take their place. This means the ‘cascading’ mechanic can continue for quite some time, and, as you’ll soon see, these cascades are also the key to triggering the main bonus round! 

Wild Modifiers 

When you play Rainbow Wilds Megaways you’ll notice there are three different types of wilds; the regular wilds, the Mushroom wilds and the Sticky wilds. The regular wilds appear during both the base-game and the free spins bonus, and they all carry a win multiplier of 1X. They substitute for all the game’s symbols, making it easier to form wins when they land in view. 

The Mushroom wild can also appear during both the base-game and the bonus round - although only one can land at a time, on reels three or four. When this wild lands, it then creates up to three additional wild symbols on reels 2-5, and any regular wilds in view have their multipliers increased by 1X if they’re on the same screen - so this can actually be quite a lucrative base-game feature. 

Finally, there’s the Sticky wilds - and these are found only during the free spins bonus. Sticky wild multipliers begin with a 1X multiplier, and this multiplier increases by +1 on each winning cascade. They are not permanently sticky, however, only remaining stuck in place for the duration of one spin. 

Free Spins 

The highlight of Rainbow Wilds Megaways is undoubtedly the free spins bonus round, and this is triggered by getting four consecutive cascades during the base-game. 4 cascades awards you with 8 free spins, while each additional cascade after this awards 2 extra free spins. 

During the free spins bonus round, a progressive multiplier comes into play, starting at 1X and increasing by +1 upon each cascade. This win multiplier then holds - and continues to grow - for the duration of the free spins bonus, applying itself against any wins formed. As mentioned earlier, there’s also sticky wilds present during the free spins bonus - though they’re not fully sticky as they only lock in place for the duration of one cascade sequence.

Tumbling Reels feature 
 

Land a winning combination and the successful symbols are removed from the reels. New symbols drop down to replace the winning symbols and a new payout consideration takes place. The tumbles continue until no new winner is formed. This is called the Tumbling Reels feature. 

Mushroom Wilds feature 
 

Mushroom wild symbols can land on reels 3 and 4 only in the base game and the free spins. Each one that hits can spread up to 3 mushrooming wilds onto reels 2, 3, 4 or 5. Known as the Mushroom Wilds feature, a Mushroom wild landing on the same reel as a standard wild will increase the multiplier by 1.

The Free Spins feature is triggered by landing 4 tumbling reel wins in succession. You’ll then receive 8 free spins. Another 2 free spins are added to your tally for each extra triggering tumble. The maximum number of free spins available is 14. 

Land 4 tumbles in a row during the feature and 2 more free spins are added to your total, for unlimited free spins.  Likewise, if you land 4 losing free spins in a row, 2 free spins are added. Keep track on this in the meter to the left of the reels. 

Joining the action during the free spins are sticky wilds which can hit on reels 2, 3 and 4 only. These come with an expanding multiplier which increases by 1 with each tumble. The multiplier resets when a new free spin begins.
