Spicy Meatballs Megaways Slot Game Background
Australia-based Big Time Gaming is known primarily for creating (and then licensing out) the Megaways game engine that took the iGaming world by storm in 2016. As the originator of the said mechanic, BTG is responsible for some of the most popular slot games around, as titles such as Bonanza Megaways and Apollo Pays Megaways demonstrate. Like those two slots, Spicy Meatballs Megaways was built from the ground up with the studio’s proprietary game engine in mind. As a result, the slot offers an expansive game grid, brilliant visuals, and multiple ways to win alongside other exciting features and design mechanics.
Spicy Meatballs Megaways Game Design
Spicy Meatballs 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 an average (for a Megaways slot) of 117,649 paylines, a potential maximum payout of 55,210x the stake. It does not, however, include an extra horizontal reel that sits above or below the main game grid.
The action is set inside an Italian kitchen. The left side of the screen shows the kitchen's double doors, with an object just out of focus in the bottom-left corner. The right side of the screen shows a brick-tiled wall with ingredient-filled shelves and cooking pans hanging on the wall. The bottom-right of the screen shows part of an out-of-focus table. A gold-rimmed gas cooker dominates the screen, with steaming four gold pots with multiplier numbers on the fiery hobs. The reels comprise colorful royal playing cards and spicy food ingredients like peppers. The animated game logo appears in the top-right of the screen, while the Megaways counter appears across the bottom-center of the screen.
Between spins, Spicy Meatballs Megaways features a wealth of sounds - clattering of cutlery, wafting of music from an unknown source, footsteps bustling about, boiling water, etc. Spin the reels and the music - actually an uptempo rendition of the Tarantella Napoletana - comes to the fore alongside audio cues and even Italian voice samples when activating a multiplier, for example.

Spicy Meatballs Megaways Slot Symbols
The 9 - A royal playing card symbols comprise the slot’s lowest-paying symbols, offering payouts of between 0.7x and 0.9x the stake for 6-of-a-kind on the reels.
The high-paying symbols comprise different vegetables. The green pepper has the lowest payout of 1x for 6-of-a-kind, followed by the blue chili and tomato with a respective payout of 1.5x and 3x the stake. The highest paying symbol is the aubergine with 10x the stake for 6-of-a-kind on the reels.
Spicy Meatballs Megaways has two variations of the Wild symbol. The first is the flaming meatball Wild. The second is the chef’s hat Wild symbol. This appears only in reels 2 - 5 substituting for all other symbols apart from the meatball Wild when it does.
Spicy Meatballs Megaways Bonus Features
Spicy Meatballs Megaways has a full-flavored complement of delicious bonuses and features!
Flaming Meatball Wilds
The flaming meatball Wild symbol serves two functions. First, it substitutes for all paying symbols. Second, it carries the starting multiplier on the cooking pot on the hob above the main grid (reels 2 - 5). This multiplier increases by +1 with every successful reaction the Wild forms a part of. The meatball Wild only disappears from the reels if (a) there are no new reactions or (b) it reaches the bottom reel.
Reactions
Symbols in a winning combination explode, disappear, and are replaced by existing or new symbols from above. This process continues so long as winning combinations occur. Flaming meatball Wilds are active during reactions, and each successful one increases the Wild’s multiplier by a factor of 1.
Free Spins
Triggering the Free Spins feature requires 5 or more consecutive reactions in the base game. This awards an initial 8 Free Spins. Each additional reaction over the 5 needed awards 1 more spin.
Because triggering the feature is contingent on attaining a certain number of reactions, meatball Wild symbols are guaranteed to appear in the bonus round; their multipliers carry over from the reaction that triggered the Free Spins feature.
Finally, attaining 5 or more consecutive reactions in the Free Spins bonus round awards a further 4 Free Spins plus an additional spin for every reaction beyond the five needed.
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.
