New Slot Announcement GOLD Megaways from Big Time Gaming

Yes, this old GOLD 20-liner has been given the Megaways treatment and is very volatile with the chance to trigger the bonus from wins of 20x or more, 70x guaranteed bonus exchange. So to save typing, here's a video and it isn't bad actually, but brutal!

 
Could have showed us more than one feature dunover!

That mechanic of gambling a win for a feature quite appeals to me, in a scuzzy sort of way, almost a sort of fruit machine type idea. (Well, not really, but you get the gist.)

Any idea on a release date?

September I believe and fear not! As usual with my BTG exclusives, a video of features-only follows my initial preview film!

I don't have gaffer menu on BTG therefore must wait for many 'natural' features to occur (or big wins in this case too).

As a result a decent representative example of say 8-10 features should be ready just before Christmas hopefully.

Pretty much the same time as waiting for 8-10 D's in Bonanza then.

Cheers dunover thanks for taking the time to do that, the feature itself looks alright and I like the gamble for it, but did it really take you about 7 1/2 hours to land them all? (That's going from the start time and end time from the video.)

I fear it might fall afoul of my issue with a lot of BTG's games, in that I really like the feature but I just can't be arsed with the camping out that they can take to get.

I guess they do the business which is why they keep making them, but personally I'd love to see lower volatility versions of their games that can afford to offer more regular features at the expense of trimming back the big wins.

No, I'd say about 5-6 hours, there was downtime when the game was left idle in between for bog breaks, coffee, dinner etc.

A couple of features after finishing the second bonus round video, I got the dream set-up of 4 retriggers on all 4 centre wild reels therefore any wilds at 3x....



It's very obvious that the odd reels 1,3,5 are predominantly loaded with the odd values of 9,J,K while the even reels 2,4,6 are loaded with even values of 10,Q,A so your royal wins will 9/10 require a wild to appear on reel 2. The premiums are where you will hit big if you can run through on them with 2 or 3 3x wilds.

Yowsers, not a bad pay in and of itself but as you say yourself, you'd want more for that!

Once you'd pointed out the way they'd done the reels you can't unsee it and it becomes quite frustrating just watching it, however it's not an unreasonable way to control the payout.

Definitely one I'll give a crack when it gets released.

Any idea on the max pay? Do BTG give that info out with their promo packs or suchlike?

They do, but I haven't got it at the moment. All I can tell is the watch either end of 4@3x wilds is 8100x per way.
 
Been playing this in demo mode for the last half hour or so. I like it. Standard BTG grinding; your balance neither rises nor falls particularly rapidly.

Not sure about the remix of the music however.

And they REALLY need to change their sound effects; the Bonanza-style chirps and bleeps really don't work on every game.
 
Not the best slot themed song ive heard

I disagree. The slot's track has a fantastic 80's vibe to it and fits the theme.. Plus you got to give BTG props for being audacious
and not putting typical repetitive music during bonus. You only get to hear it during the bonus round and it's 80's retro GOLD!

The video above is cringy.

I should have been more clear, it was the song/lyrics i found a bit lacking, music is fine.
I remember Dunover made a slot themed song with much better lyrics, thats why i rated this song in 'Dunovers'
=)

I can picture Dunover singing now in that overmodulated microphone of his.

Also, yes, the lyrics are a bit lame. The hook of the song makes up for it though.
 
Is it me or is the 80's pretty much hands down the best decade for music?

Said to my brother a couple of weeks back that I'd love to be transported back to 1980; go out to the clubs/bars etc and completely immerse myself in the atmosphere. Everything looked a hell of a lot simpler, and great songs like this kicking off the decade-

 
Prediction:

BTG’s latest shill will do his best to talk up a game that deep down he knows really isn’t that good. Then, apart from maybe one of his 5 on 5 at 5 vids he will rarely re-visit the game because he realises playing a dull boring game that takes ages to bonus to deliver a 30x shitter really isn’t GOLD at all.

Just like Wheel Of Fortune(dreadful), Beef Lightning (just about average) and Spicy Meatballs (awful)

There is only 1 BTG game. And it’s BONANZA!!! Deal with it folks!!!
 
Hell yeah the 80's fucking rocked! And i really love how BTG keeps dishing out retro/nostalgia themed slots like this...
I just (finally) was able to play it on Casumo, where they don't have the Feature Buy, which is fine, but do have the change a win for Free Spins option..took it and lost :p

I had a few decent features already, nothing past x100 though. But it's mostly the look feel and sounds that really get me off here, i simply can't wait to trigger the bonus, simply to listen to one of my fav old songs: the funny thing is i rarely listen to music these days, yet i did notice how BTG's (and some other providers like NoLimit for instance) soundtracks and effects, have an incredibly crispy, immersive sound..

If you happen to be wearing headphones or just have great speakers, it's pretty damn captivating! Combined with the big win-potential and teasing, it's really a joy to play.

I mean, i keep coming back for more, whilst having found myself cussing like dunover, yelling profanities at the screen, a plenty! But the times they do pay, and go bonkers? It makes the grind totally worth it for me. And the whole look and feel thing i just described greatly helps there too :)

Any old fart out there from the same era, should deffo give this one a go! :D

When you go with MEGAways less than 243-ways slots at least once in 10 spins - GOLD Megaways base game in a nutshell.
I have played over 200 eur on 0.30 in different sessions 200 spins each, no bonus. I could have gambled 3 of 30x wins gotten in that overall sum, but wheel looked like 70 red 30 green so I collected. I play on Paddy and can't buy bonuses and it is how I want. Nothing attractive in the basegame, plenty of max ways that led to no win or 10x and from the parent of the brand I couldnt expected a magaways engine slot churning out the least ways, even more considering the lack of moving symbols that made easier to connect the wins. I tried it solely because I saw the review of it and liked how the bonus looked, bit like White Rabbit, bit less dull in the basegame than the aforementioned. I played consistently the earlier output of BTG and the turn off was reaching x50 multiplier a few times in the MMBox with plenty of spins to go, when wilds and any win connections are vanishing. Features that generated under 250x. I felt that by reaching the top would guarantee a nice win yet the top level is like reaching JatB harps and the likely outcome, albeit thats easier to reach. So after being a victim of BTG Potential, I'm not in a hurry to spend another 100 or so on this to finally see 73663728 ways and 10x bonus payout.
 
Yep, the 80's had some fucking dire crap towards the end with Shock, Baitking and Slaughterman's shite like Kylie, Bros and Rick Ghastly but had variety with metal, reggae, new wave, electro/synth pop, mega groups like Durex Durex and emergence of huge pop stars like Madge the Vadge. Compare that with the drivel of the last decade where we've been showered with shit consisting of mainly karaoke 'talent' show cover versions, hip-hop and rap, iced with gloomy whingers like Ed Beercan and Adhell.....:(
 
played this a few times now over the last couple of weeks - got to quite liking it so far, although my initial assessment from my first couple of hours play was, pff what a sack of shite. :laugh:

came back to it a few times since and its grown on me - i like it can go as low as .5 a spin, abit like donuts could - and im a bit of a low-roller so i was still interested to see what it could do. Since then ive had a couple of 250-350x bonus's and a few lower ones 20-100x. Also been stung a few times with 5-10x.

usually i wont gamble any decent wins unless its an almost guaranteed bonus, and more so if it offers a cut in your win to take free spins, ive done that too. I had a nice 200x base game , that offered me about 70% of the win and free spins. Think the result in the end was slightly less what the whole win had been, but was worth the chance.

ill keep coming back to this as i have come to like it, and the .5 play is nice for me too. :)
 
You've been dishing out slot videos in abundance as of late. Is it Christmas?

Keep it up Degsy!

Sometimes I lean a bit more into the fruit machine emulation stuff and sometimes I lean more into the online slots stuff - I guess it's just the turn of slots at the moment :)

No.It had some great bands tunes but the charts were also full of crap 'Renee and Renata' and 'Black Lace' anybody?
 
Yes I am a fan of quad slot play, and with small stakes it's entirely possible to keep the overall spend down to sensible levels. I do really like BTG bonus rounds but holy crap you can wait a long time for them (admittedly I got really rather lucky in that video!), so having three other slots rolling along at the same time alleviates the boredom of waiting.

I don't see much of a future for BTG's games once autoplay goes, we all know their games can be over an hour for a bonus if you catch them wrong.
 
It seems a shame this quad play is going to be banned, it came across as increasing your fun, with a total stake of about £1 I can't see the issue. Obviously it would be impossible without autospin any way.:rolleyes:

I also love quad play, or dual/triple. Fun fact: i actually have longer sessions when i play like this, i feel that by not simply bashing one slot for 100's or even 1000's of spins, you increase your chances of winning, and the more slots the better i.m.o.

I only knew Redbet had that quad play option ages ago, and i've seen someone post stuff from a few other haunts as well, but i usually just deposit 25 in two separate casinos, (up to 4 Casinos, if my budget allows it :p) and do it like that.

Silly - but a few Casinos block you from opening more than one slot, and the above way is to circumvent that
It may be silly from me to think that my chances are increased like that, but it works for me.

Sometimes, when a new slot is out, i open that specific slot in 4 Casinos, then do quad play, in the hopes if finding at least one 'hot' one, which also often works out :) At least the chances of spinning to zero without a feature are lower this way, Or so i believe!
 
Folk might just go '20 quid' higher stake than usual approach (which sometimes i still do); could also apply that to Blueprints MW's and Isoftbets (which aren't too shabby tbh) as they can be even grimer than BTG's MW's in frequency i found.

Unless a bypass (cough), the likes of DOA as well: boring enough clicking 100 when you go in/out of rooms as well but to sit through that tedium would drive mere mortals insane.
 
I used to play this a lot with nickel and dime stakes. I won 2400x on a bonus game. Watches of course (100x for 6 OAK) with multiple x3 wilds.

This happened before I recorded sessions, but it was definitely surprising to see one spin of a 0.05 bonus game yield 90 some dollars.

The game is very volatile cause of the wilds on the 2nd reel like dunover mentioned.
