What they are known for
The Megaways engine — up to hundreds of thousands of ways on a shifting reel grid — which BTG licenses across the industry, and the unlimited-multiplier free spins Bonanza popularized. Evolution acquired the studio in 2021. Newer lines like Megapots push into jackpot territory.
What to expect
High volatility as standard, with RTP in a comparatively honest 96-97 band. BTG games telegraph their variance clearly: if the feature description mentions unlimited multipliers, believe it in both directions.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Megaways actually mean?
