You can spin the reels, use Autoplay, change your bet, or open the paytable and menu with the controls under the reels.
The game’s symbols are basic card royals and some sparkly gems. 9 pays 0.8x your bet for 6 of a kind, 10 pays 0.9x, J and Q pay 1x, while K and A pay 1.8x. The emerald and sapphire pay 2x your bet for 6 of a kind, the ruby pays 7.5x, and the diamond pays 50x.
The wild is a cash-stuffed money clip that only appears in the extra reel above the main reels and substitutes for any symbol except the scatter.
If you land three or more matching symbols on adjacent positions, you will get a win. All symbols involved in the win will be removed from the reels by the Cascading Wins mechanic, and new symbols will fall in their place so that you can get multiple wins from a single spin. The Megaways mechanic creates up to 117,649 ways to win on each spin by allowing up to 6 symbols to land on a reel on any spin.
The top prize per spin in this slot is 5,000x your bet, which you can reach if you trigger the maximum fixed jackpot.
If you land four scatter symbols that spell out the word CASH, you will get 12 free spins, with an extra five for each additional scatter you land.
During free spins, a progressive multiplier that starts at 1x and increases by +1 after every cascade will be active. You can retrigger the feature if 3 or 4 scatters land on the extra reel.
2. Fixed JackpotsEvery time wild symbols land, they are collected in a giant cash ball and can randomly trigger the Jackpot Pick feature. You will see a grid of 12 tokens that you must click one at a time until you find three matching tokens and claim a corresponding fixed jackpot. The Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega jackpots are worth 15x, 50x, 100x, and 5,000x your bet, respectively.
RTP (Return to Player) is a figure that represents the percentage of player bets the slot is theoretically expected to pay back over time. The RTP for this game is 95.98%, slightly below the industry average. This high-volatility game allows you to get big wins, but mostly only when the bonus features are activated.
Cash n Riches Megaways has a disco-style theme with a background filled with bright lights and plenty of shiny and sparkly effects. Although the theme is well executed and looks generic, the funky dance soundtrack makes it feel like a more unique experience.
Most online casinos have free demo versions of most of their real money slots, and you should consider playing them. Free demos give you all the gameplay and features of the original, with the only difference being that you play with virtual credits instead of your casino balance.
Big Time Gaming originally dreamed up the Megaways mechanic, and it is now a regular feature in slots by many providers. Some games are originals created with Megaways in mind, while others are older games with a Megaways upgrade. Let’s take a look at a few of the best. 1 Million Megaways BC takes you back to the Ice Age with woolly mammoths, cave people and a powerful combination of free spins, multipliers and locked reels. Twin Spin Megaways has an equally crazy mechanic to match Megaways, with reels that can duplicate each other for massive winning chances. White Rabbit Megaways has a playful Alice in Wonderland theme and a free spins round where the reels can expand up to 12 rows high, giving you 24,8832 ways to win.
Cash N’ Riches Megaways feels like a mish-mash of other slots, but it still delivers what it promises. I could not ignore how similar this slot is to Ancient Fortunes Poseidon Megaways, but both games are from the same provider, so it would make sense for Triple Edge Studios to try to repeat their success. Unfortunately, this game’s theme is not strong enough to make it stand out, but if you’re after some robust winning potential and thrilling gameplay, you can easily overlook this.
