iSoftBet Releases It’s First Megaways Slot Aztec Gold With Some New and Exciting Features to Check Out!

Videoslots Casino should be adding iSoftBet’s first venture into the Megaways style slots very soon, the Aztec Gold Megaways release under license from BTG is a fresh take on the Megaways style of slot as least in terms of the special features included.

The regular ways mechanic which goes up to 117,649 is in place, as is the avalanche style cascading wins mechanic, allowing successive wins from the base game, there are a few novel features including randomly activated Max Megaways spins along with a special Sun Disc Boost feature which adds more of the Golden Scatters onto the reels making triggering the main bonus round technically easier.

The main Aztec Gold Cash Respins bonus round once triggered replaces the standard free spins rounds and rising multipliers for a  3 respins scatter style bonus feature which thankfully is reset every time a  new Gold Sun Disc scatter lands in view, these are all multiplier based rewards based on stake size.

Things heat up further during the bonus round as there are unlockable  Multipliers above each reel that are applied to all of the wins on the reel once it has been completely filled up and turns golden in colour, the multiplier value is directly related to the number of symbols on that reel, so an initial bonus trigger with lots of winning ways will grant you higher multipliers here.

There are also 3 stake based jackpots on offer too, which are 30x, 100x and 1000x stake in value, but these can also benefit from the additional multipliers above each reel, if they land in view during the bonus round they have been won, but filling up that reel and turning it golden will boost the wins even higher.

Design-wise this is a graphically rich Megaways slot, one of the best looking we have played this year, the twist to the bonus round mechanic will likely have a mixed reaction from players but there is definitely a lot of excitement to be had with multiplied jackpots on offers and a limited number of re-spins that can be reset with new symbols landing in view!

Aztec Gold Cash Re-Spins

Aztec Gold Megaways Slot - Max Megaways

The main bonus feature is triggered when 5 of more of the special golden sctater symbols land in view in the base game, the number of winning ways is also transferred directly into the bonus round.

During the free spins, the reels are replaced with Golden Scatters and blanks, these are generally in the 1x to 10x range but can go higher and also include the 3 Jackpots.

You are granted just 3 re-spins during this feature but any new symbols landing in view resets this counter and locks the golden scatter in place. Filling up a reel entirely will tun that reel golden and apply the multiplier value to all of the scatters contained within it. These can up to to a maximum of 7x based on the max megaways, and are also applied to any of the jackpot symbols!

Overall Opinions

The Aztec Gold Megaways slot from iSoftBet is decent release for the Megaways style of slot, graphically this release is superb, the additional base game features help to increase the chance of bonus triggers but generally, it does feel like another Megaways slot where you are just hoping for a bonus trigger.

The Aztec Re-Spin feature is definitely exciting, with 3 re-spins this can be a very quick disappointment or packed with excitement as new symbols reset the free spins counter and prolong this bonus round, the extra multipliers are a nice touch and even more so the stake based jackpots that can benefit from them too!

In our playtests, we managed bonus round results in the range of 15x to well over 250x, with bags more potential given the 1000x jackpot and potential 7x multipliers!

If you are a fan of megaways slots then this at least offers a fresh take on the style and should be worth checking out to at least check out the bonus round a few times.
