Bonus Feature

When 3 Wild symbols appear on the grid, the Walking Wild Re-Spins feature is triggered, moving the Wilds randomly across the reels with each re-spin. Each new Wild that appears during the re-spin extends the feature by one additional spin.

To truly unlock the slot's potential, landing 3 or more Scatter symbols will activate the Free Spins feature. At the very beginning, you'll be able to choose from 3(depending on the Scatters) random bonuses from treasure chests that may include: a guaranteed Walking Wild, an increased multiplier, additional spins or an initial number of ways to win ranging from 2,000 to 10,000. During free spins, the Walking Wild acts as it does during re-spins, moving around the grid with each spin. Additionally, landing 2 Scatters allows you to pick another bonus, while a single Scatter grants an extra spin.

Verdict

Long gone are the days when just seeing "Megaways" in a slot's title was enough to guarantee a quality experience. While the uniqueness of this mechanic is undeniable, what makes the slot really appealing - it is the combination of features that you can experience while playing Release the Kraken Megaways. Though cascading reels may no longer delight your eye, they've been replaced by re-spins with constantly roaming Wilds, bringing a fresh spin to the gameplay. The highlight, however, is the impressive max win of x10,000 your stake, although it hasn't changed from the original Release the Kraken, it still here to provide new thrills as you conquer the depths of the Kraken's realm.
