There is certainly no shortage of features in Invaders Megaways, from the traditional Cascading Wins through to some very fun and compelling modifiers that come into play in the free spins round, mixing wilds, multipliers, expanding symbols and stacks, and an Alien that triggers an instant increase in paylines up to 1,000,000.
Cascading Wins
SG haven’t forgotten the bread and butter feature that the best Megaways™ games have – look out for this every time you score a win. The winning symbols are removed from the reels and new ones drop in to replace them. If this creates more wins, so the process repeats. Until no more wins occur.
UFO Wild Selector
SG get creative here – above the reels is a 5×1 row containing each of the symbols in the paytable. When a spin is activated, a small UFO hovers over these symbols before choosing one to land on. When this happens, instances of the selected symbol on reels 2 to 5 are zapped and transformed into wilds to increase the chances of scoring a win.
The Wild Selector chooses the 9 to convert to WildsUnicow Feature
One of the highlights of Invaders is the Unicow feature which triggers on base game spins only. When the Unicow lands, EVERY reel will then expand to between 7 and 10 rows high, creating up to 1,000,000 winlines.
Free Spins Feature With Modifiers on EVERY Spin
Finally, we get onto the main event – the free spins round.
You’ll need to land FOUR or more scatter symbols to trigger the spins. Four scatters gets you 7 free spins, five gets you 10 free spins, and six or more gets you 15 free spins. It is also possible to increase the free spins total further during the round by landing between 3 and 6 scatters to get you between 4 and 15 free spins.
Free Spins round launches in testingThen, once the round begins, the UFO will do its thing above the reels, turning every instance of one symbol into a wild. Additionally, there is a different modifier associated with each symbol, and they work as follows:
Invaders Logo: All highest paying logo symbols will expand to cover the entire reel, creating potential for a big payout.
Mad Scientist: A win multiplier with x2 value is applied to any win. Then, each successive win in a cascade sequence doubles the win multiplier up to a max multiplier of 256x.
Alien: if the alien is the selected symbol, each time it lands on the reels, it will enhance the height of the reels as well as each adjacent reel. This can create up to 1,000,000 winning ways.
Alien modifier expands the reels up to 10 rows highCow: If the cow symbol appears, it becomes a wild with a value of x2.
Ray Gun: 1 Wild will be delivered to the reels for every ray gun symbol that lands. This doesn’t apply to cascading ray gun symbols.
