Beef Lightning Megaways Slot Game Background
Big Time Gaming is the mastermind behind the wildly popular Megaways game engine that took the iGaming world by storm in 2016. As the creators of said engine, BTG is responsible for developing classics like Bonanza Megaways and Who Wants to be a Millionaire Megaways, the latter based on the popular game show of the same name.
Beef Lightning Megaways Game Design
Beef Lightning Megaways is a 6-reel online casino game with anywhere between 2 - 7 rows, depending on the on-screen action and the size of the symbols in view. The slot also offers the now-standard (for a Megaways slot) of 117,649 paylines and a potential maximum payout of 56,000x the stake. Unlike most Megaways slots, Beef Lightning Megaways doesn’t have an extra horizontal reel that sits above or below the main game grid.
The slot is set in an idyllic farmstead where the green grass gives way to deep blue skies across which fly flocks of birds. The left side of the screen reveals white picket fences and a red barn with a white roof and weather vane. The right-hand side shows another white picket fence and a tall steel windmill. In the background lies a gently rolling hill edged with distant trees. The game grid is set in a thick wooden frame that resembles tree trunks. Two stone pillars lie at the foot of the vertical frames. Below the grid is a metallic grate. The reels contain several paying and bonus symbols. In the base game, the title’s logo sits squarely on the top right of the screen; a bonus win counter replaces this in the free spins bonus round. Meanwhile, the Megaways counter is positioned in the top center of the screen.
Finally, the music in Beef Lightning Megaways is upbeat and funky, which may surprise those expecting a more traditional country theme to go with the rural setting. This is accompanied by several audio cues directly inspired by the slot's pastoral theme, such as the sound of tweeting birds when not spinning the reels.

Beef Lightning Megaways Slot Symbols
The royal playing cards comprise the slot’s lowest-paying symbols. Each number/letter appears as a colorful gemstone. The 9 and 10 cards have a payout of 0.4x the stake, while the J and Q have a slightly higher value of 0.5x the stake. The highest payouts in this category belong to the K and A, with a payout of 0.6x the stake for 6-of-a-kind on the reels.
The golden horseshoe and cowbell symbols are next with a payout of 1x the stake. The cow symbol has a 2.5x payout, while the highest value belongs to the nose-ringed bull symbol and its payout of 20x the stake.
Beef Lightning Megaways also has its Scatter and Wild symbols. The former takes the form of golden M and O letters. Landing 3 Scatters that spell out the word MOO triggers the Free Spins feature. The Wild symbol looks like a cow brand and substitutes for all other symbols apart from the Scatter.
Beef Lightning Megaways Bonus Features
You might think Big Time Gaming has bought the farm with all the exciting bonuses and features it has packed into Beef Lightning Megaways!
Cascades/Reactions
After a winning combination gets paid out, all symbols that participated in the said win are removed and replaced with symbols coming from above. This continues until it's no longer possible to land winning combinations.
Duplicating Wilds
At any point (including cascades/reactions), the Wild symbol may be duplicated up to 3 times in the reel on which it landed. Should this happen, all symbols on the same reel get replaced with Wild symbols. This is known as the Wild Duplication feature.
Free Spins Feature
Activating the Free Spins feature requires landing 3 Scatters that spell out the word MOO. This awards a total of 12 spins. Each Scatter that lands over and above the 3 needed awards an additional 4 spins.
The action then moves to the Cow Auction, a unique feature not found in many Free Spins bonus rounds. Players start with one cow and no bids, and this is where the Bonus Coins come into play.
Bonus Coin
Every Bonus Coin in view during the Free Spins feature can reveal the following: an increased number of cows, a cow auction bid, or a re-trigger. The Bonus Coin can also reveal a bronze trophy that pays out 500x the stake for 3 in view, a silver medal that pays out 2,500x the stake for 4 in view, and a gold trophy with a 25,000x payout for 5 in view.
At the end of the Free Spins feature, the number of cows is multiplied by the final bid and awarded as a bonus prize.
Megaways Feature
The incorporation of the Megaways engine means that each reel can reveal a certain number of symbols in view. Landing consecutive symbols on all reels after a spin could lead to a maximum of 117,649 ways to win.
