Rockets soar and pop like glitter bombs, Catherine wheels fizz to the music triggering explosive chain reactions, roman candles spit fire. It can only be the pyrotechnic dream that is Fireworks Megaways™ , the new slot from Big Time Gaming (BTG) that will ignite the Evolution Network on March 27.

With 117,649 ways to win and combustible cascading symbols with every spin, this is a game that will have you “Oooh-ing,” not to mention “aaah-ing,” with delight.

Thanks to the Firework Wild Bonus, every spin and every reaction brings a burst of excitement when one of the four Extra Reel positions ignites at random to unleash a dazzling light display. When a purple, red, blue, or green Firework lands in the lit position, it magically transforms into a Wild symbol for the chance of a big win.

During Free Spins, the unlimited win multiplier increases with every Firework Wild Bonus triggered, creating more awe-inspiring explosions of colour. Every Free Spin and reaction will ignite two of the four Extra Reel positions, doubling your chances of triggering the Firework Wild Bonus.

But the excitement doesn’t stop there. Use Win Exchange™ to convert your big wins into 12 Free Spins. Alternatively, dive straight into the heart-pounding Free Spins action with Bonus Buy for 100x stake and let the fireworks commence. Experience the exhilaration of a staggering 150,335x maximum exposure coupled with an impressive RTP of 96.44% – a gaming delight that promises to captivate and delight players at every turn.

Nik Robinson, BTG CEO, said: “Fireworks Megaways™ is a thrilling spectacle of colour and sound designed to elevate engagement levels to the max. Beyond its visually stunning display, this slot introduces the exciting Firework Wild Bonus, setting a new standard for thrilling features. With Fireworks Megaways™, it’s not just about playing a game; it’s about immersing yourself in an extraordinary spectacle of excitement, innovation and gaming adventure like no other.

Nicholas Peters, Chief Business Development Officer for Europe at Evolution said: “This game is an audio-visual delight that will captivate players. BTG has a knack for pushing the boundaries and reimagining what a slot can be, and this time around they’ve turned a humble slot game into a glorious fireworks display.”
