Genie Jackpots Megaways

Six reels with rows that shift between two and five symbols apiece give Blueprint Gaming's Genie Jackpots Megaways up to 15,625 ways to form a win on any single spin, and that shifting-row engine is the mechanical spine the whole game hangs off. A magical, purple-and-blue night scene fills the background behind an Arabian-styled reel set.

Card royals from 9 through Ace fill the low end of the paytable, worth up to 1x for the top three of that set on a six-of-a-kind. Above them sit a pair of crossed swords, the genie's own headpiece, and an overflowing treasure chest, while the game's logo symbol pays the most of any regular icon - 25x the stake for six matching. A genie wild can land in any position and substitutes for every standard symbol, though not for the bonus symbol needed to open the free spins round.

A Genie Power Spin can strike at random during the base game, handing out one of four modifiers: Wild Megaways adds extra wild symbols once a spin reaches maximum rows; Genie Wilds turns a full reel position into one giant wild, sometimes carrying a multiplier as high as 5x; Genie Wild Spin conjures mystery or wild symbols to guarantee a win outright; and Bonus Megaways loads extra bonus symbols onto a maximum-row spin to improve the odds of reaching free spins.

Landing three, four, five or six bonus symbols is worth 10, 12, 15 and 20 free spins in return. Before the spins begin, a Genie Make a Wish screen offers four lamps to choose between, each locking in a different perk for the whole round: Mystery Wishes fills the reels with symbols that all reveal the same matching icon; Unlimited Multiplier climbs by a step every spin while occasionally handing out extra spins too; Locking Wilds keeps any wild that lands on the four inner reels in place, with a full wild reel triggering more spins; and Genie Streak re-spins the reels after any win to try to build on it.

Medium/high volatility is the official rating, RTP runs at 96.52% as standard or 97.13% with the bonus bet option switched on, and the top prize reaches 10,000x the stake across bets of 0.10 to 10. With a random modifier able to strike on almost any base spin and a four-way choice waiting at the start of every bonus round, no two trips through the game play out quite the same way.
