What Is the Megaways Mechanic?
Megaways is a patented slot mechanic developed by Big Time Gaming — one of the most significant innovations in online casino history. Unlike traditional slots where the number of paylines is fixed (typically 20, 25, or 50 lines), a Megaways slot uses a random reel modifier that changes the number of symbols displayed on each reel with every single spin. The result is a constantly shifting number of active ways to win — sometimes just a few thousand, and sometimes as many as 117,649 — all within the same game.
The mechanic works across six reels. Each reel can display between two and seven symbols per spin. The total number of active ways to win is calculated by multiplying the symbol count on each reel together — meaning six reels each showing seven symbols produces 7 × 7 × 7 × 7 × 7 × 7 = 117,649 ways. The win calculation is not payline-based but instead pays any matching symbols appearing on adjacent reels from left to right, regardless of their vertical position. This creates a fundamentally different rhythm of play — wins feel more frequent during high-reel-count spins, while the anticipation of watching each reel expand to its maximum seven symbols builds genuine tension that traditional payline slots cannot replicate.
Since Big Time Gaming first introduced Megaways in 2015 with Bonanza, the patent has been licenced to virtually every major studio in the industry. Pragmatic Play, Red Tiger, Blueprint Gaming, NetEnt, and dozens of other developers have built their own Megaways titles under licence, each adding unique bonus mechanics on top of the core variable-reel engine. At 97hi, players in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and across Bangladesh can access the full breadth of this library from any device with a stable internet connection.
The Megaways format pairs naturally with two other powerful mechanics that almost every Megaways title includes: the Cascading Reels system (also called Avalanche or Tumble), where winning symbols are removed from the grid and replaced by new ones falling from above — creating chain reactions of consecutive wins from a single spin — and the Free Spins with Increasing Multiplier feature, where an unlimited win multiplier climbs by +1 with every successive cascade during the free spins round, theoretically reaching multipliers of 50x, 100x, or higher on extended cascading sequences.
Provably Fair: Every Megaways title on 97hi is independently tested by GLI or BMM Testlabs. The variable reel RNG is certified to produce genuinely random symbol counts on every spin. Certified RTP figures are published on each game card.
How Megaways Works — Step by Step
Four interconnected mechanics that define every Megaways session on 97hi.
Each spin, the game's RNG independently assigns a symbol count of 2 to 7 for each of the six reels. You can see the reel height change in real time as the spin resolves — expanding reels generate dramatically more active ways.
The total ways to win equals the product of all six reel symbol counts. When all six reels land on seven symbols simultaneously, the count peaks at exactly 117,649. Wins pay for matching symbols on consecutive reels from left to right.
When a winning combination lands, those symbols are removed from the grid and new symbols fall from above to fill the gaps. If the new symbols form another win, the cascade continues — and with a multiplier active, each chain reaction amplifies the payout.
Landing four or more scatter symbols triggers free spins. During free spins, a win multiplier starts at 1x and increases by +1 with every cascade. There is no cap — multipliers can climb to 20x, 50x, or higher on a long cascading sequence.
