Zeus Lightning Megaways Slot Game – Demo, RTP & Features

Zeus Lightning Megaways is an ancient Greece slot released by Red Tiger. It’s actually a remake of a similar slot released previously – Zeus Lightning Power Reels. As ancient Greek slots go, this one has all the vibes and perfectly nails down the atmosphere.

The Zeus Lightning Megaways slot game has various symbols that include deities from Greek mythology and the usual card royals. Not surprisingly, Zeus is the chief one.

The action occurs on a 6-7 grid which is usual for Megaways titles, and has up to 117,649 winning ways. Bets go from 20p to £4 per spin, which is suitable for all kinds of players.

As a Megaways slot, the slot mostly revolves around tumbles. Every new win triggers one, where winning symbols are replaced with new ones dropping from above.

The card royals pay up to 0.25x the bet for 6-OAK, while the bird, tiger, bull, snake, or Zeus pay up to 10x for the same combination. Zeus is also the wild, substituting for other symbols in winning combinations except for the scatter.

Game Features

Whenever the wild is involved in a win, Zeus will throw lightning. The wild doesn’t disappear from the grid when part of a win, and only one of these can appear on the grid in the base game. Its size also depends on the number of symbols on the reels it lands on.

So, for example, reels with 2-3 symbols get a 1×1 Zeus wild. Those with 4-6 symbols get 1×2 wilds, while reels with 7 symbols get a 1×3 wilds.

Some Zeus wilds can expand on the grid. When all winning symbols are cleared from the grid, Zeus summons lightning strikes which hit random positions on the grid. They clone the hit symbols vertically or horizontally, except on positions where a wild appears.

The free spins feature comes into play when you land 4 or more scatters. You get 8-12 free spins depending on the number of triggering scatters. In the bonus round, an extra Zeus wild is added to the reels, and the number of possible wilds per reel increases from 1 to 2.

When 2 wilds appear on the reels and expand, one acts as a clone while the second upgrades the cloned symbols to premiums. The upgraded symbols can also expand, and with the chain reactions in the mix as well, this is where the slot reaches its top winning potential.
