Perfect Potions Megaways Slot Overview

SG Digital are here with experiments of the magical variety in Perfect Potions Megaways, where you can brew up a storm with lotions and potions in a game capable of up to 700,000 ways to win!

This spellbound game from SG digital certainly isn’t the first time that they’ve taken Big Time Gaming’s tried and true Megaways Slot mechanic and turned it into something a little bit different.

Spartacus Megaways is a prime example of how they pushed the boundaries with the mechanic, and Bettlejuice megaways wasn’t exactly your conventional Megaways game either.

With a bit of a spin on the norm in mind, can Perfect Potions Megaways cast a spell on you? The statistics certainly seem to be mystic enough to suggest so, with wins of up to 72,000x possible.

Perfect Potions Megaways Theme

Pefect Potions Megaways is about as close to Hogwarts as you’re going to get within the world of Slots.

Because of this effort, Perfect Potions Megaways leaves you with a more than perfect lasting impression. It’s pretty alluring overall.

The menu of the game is pretty horrible to look at though.

The countless pages of information could easily be compacted into something a little easier on the eye, and something a little less scroll intensive.

Perfect Potions Megaways: The Base Game and Features

Each spin in Perfect Potions Megaways may have up to 96,040 ways to win.

Reels 1 can show between 3 and 9 symbols, and reels 2-6 can show between 2 and 6 symbols.

Everyone should be more than acquainted with the Megaways Mechanic by now, but this basically means that the more symbols there are, the more ways to win there are, and as a result there is a better chance of hitting wins.

To form a win, you’ll need to match 3 or more symbols from left to right, starting from the left most reel.

Perfect Potions Megaways has a Cascade Mechanic.

This means that winning combinations will disappear, leaving empty spaces for new symbols to fall in via a cascade, which may create more winning combinations.

One thing that will certainly catch your eye is the Red and Blue Potions active during every spin

Perfect Potions Megaways Base Game

Special Symbols

On each Spin, 1-5 red and/or Blue potions will randomly appear above reels 2 to 6.

If there is a winning combination below one of the potions, then the potion will drop down to the lowest available position.

If it reaches the bottom, then it will fall into the couldron underneath the reels, activating one of the following modifiers.

  • Blue Potion – The corresponding reel will double its original height, and place new symbols to fill the reels. A red potion will then occupy a position atop the newly expanded reel for a chance to drop down if more wins occur. 
  • Red Potion – When a Red potion is triggered, all symbols on the corresponding reel will become Wild. After win evaluations (if any) then a  Red or a Blue potion will be randomly placed above the reel. 

Perfect Potions Megaways Free Spins

Scatter Symbols may appear on any reel in Perfect Potions Megaways.

When it lands, it will add a position to the Bonus Symbol to the side of the reels. An explosion on the reel will then ensue, causing new symbols to fill the reels.

The Bonus Meter will reset when no more cascades occur.

To actually trigger the Free Spins, you’ll need 4 or more of these Scatter Symbols.

  • 4 Scatters – 10 Spins
  • 5 Scatters – 12 Spins
  • 6 Scatters – 15 Spins

The game also has the potential to re-trigger if more scatters land once the round has commenced

  • 3 Scatters – 4 Extra Spins
  • 4 Scatters – 5 Extra Spins
  • 5 Scatters – 6 Extra Spins
  • 6 Scatters – 8 Extra Spins

The difference in the Free Spins comes from the Potions.

In Free Spins, if the Blue Potion is activated, then the number of expanded reels are locked for the remainder of the Free Spins.

Reels Expanded in the Base Game will also be locked at the new height for the remainder of the spins if the Free Spins was triggered on the same spin as a reel expansion.

If the Red Potion is triggered, then the Reel may display a Megaways Multiplier.

This will multiply the number of symbols on the reel by the revealed multiplier.

These features are what gives Perfect Potions Megaways the ability to reach an unfathomable 700,000 possible win ways.

Perfect Potions Megaways Bonus Buy

Those outside of the UK will be able to utilise a Bonus Buy Feature.

This costs a pretty reasonable 50x your bet to trigger. The Bonus Buy guarantees at least 4 scatters, but there is the possibility for more.

The RTP changes if you use the Bonus Buy feature, with a theoretical RTP of 96.07%.

Perfect Potions Megaways: Our Verdict

You’ve got to highly commend SG Digital for not following the conventional norm when it comes to making a Megaways game. It would have been all to easy to cash in on the mechanic and make something that can only be described as a copy and paste, like many others do. But they didnt.

They decided to go for a more innovative design yet agian, as they have done before with other Megaways games they’ve designed.

You’d be forgiven for not thinking immediately of SG Digital when Megaways comes to mind, but let’s not forget that they’re the people who brought us the formidable Spartacus Megaways.

Maybe SG Digital should be in our minds when we’re looking for a Megaways game with a bit of personality to it?

As well as a praiseworthy design in both gameplay and theme, you’ve also got to respect the great stats in Perfect Potions Megaways.

With a win potential of up to 72,000x and an RTP of 96.13%, you can’t really complain. That being said, we realise that all too often the Maximum stated win is no more than a mere marketing tactic with very little possibility of getting anywhere near it.

One con to mention is the frequency in which the Free Spins in Perfect Potions Megaways may actually trigger. This is expected to land once every 300 spins or so, but this can vary greatly.

Overall, the great fantasy theme, awesome statistics and compelling gameplay makes Perfect Potions Megaways a game that SG can be proud of.
