Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways Slot Review
If I'm not mistaken, a celebrity bus can be one of two things: it’s either a kick-ass luxury bus, the kind you’d rent out to a Bieber or Radiohead, or a bus that drives around so that celebrity hounds can stalk their prey. 🚌
I’m gonna go ahead and assume the one in Pragmatic Play’s latest game, Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways slot, is the latter.
The idea of a band formed by a dog, a businessman, a stoner dude, a granny wielding knitting needles, and a karaoke star (at least in his own mind) seems untenable. 🧶
Mind you, the band Queen was made up of a physicist (Brian May), a dentist (Roger Taylor), an engineer (John Deacon), and a graphic designer (Freddie Mercury) so stranger things have happened.
Gameplay
I do loves me a Pragmatic Play game because they invariably put so much effort into the design. Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways slot is no exception, and it looks incredible in landscape mode on any device. Portrait mode isn’t ideal because of the shape of the bus/grid.
When you start playing, you’ll notice that the symbol sizes can vary across the 6 reels – and that, gentlefolk, is why the game offers up to 117,649 ways to win. The game’s title was a giveaway, yeah?
As for the other stats, they’re seriously impressive: an RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.
RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate. of 96.52%, a high volatility rate, and a max win of €400,000! The only 2 currencies you can’t play with here are the Japanese yen and Tether.
The Wild is a hot little number in red that substitutes for all symbols other than the Scatter. You’ll see Wilds on reels 2 to 5.
Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways slot uses a Tumble mechanic. For you newbies out there, that means that after every spin, winning symbols are paid out and all of the symbols involved will be removed.
The remaining symbols fall to the bottom of the grid and new symbols drop from the top of the grid. Tumbles continue for as long as winning combinations occur.
The Scatter crown appears on all reels and can hit as any possible size. Scatter symbols don’t explode when a Tumble happens.
Features
RE-SPIN FEATURE:
If 3 Scatters hit due to normal play or from a Tumble, the Re-spin feature will be triggered, and 5 spins will be awarded.
Scatters will become sticky and the number of symbols on the reels will be the same as during the triggering spin. So, in other words, the number of paylines will stay the same.
The round ends when all Re-spins have been used up or if you have 4 to 6 Scatter symbols on the reels. In the latter case, you’ll transition to the Free Spins feature.
FREE SPINS:
The number of triggering Scatters I mentioned above (4, 5, or 6) will award 8, 10, and 12 respectively. You’ll start with a 1x multiplier, which will be bumped up by 1x (up to a max of 50x) each time a Tumble happens.
Each Tumble’s total win will be increased by the multiplier value. Landing an extra 3 Scatters gets you 5 more spins.
BUY BONUS:
You can either buy Re-spins for 20x, or Free Spins for 100x your bet.
Performance
I had this thing while playing Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways slot on my tablet using Safari. We’d get to a point where a pop-up would try to surface – for Free Spins for example – and then the game would get stuck. So I’d end up with a bus with a huge black box overlaid on it.
The weird thing is that didn’t happen when using Safari on my MacBook Pro. As for Chrome, that browser worked perfectly on all my devices.
Maximum Win
Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways slot boasts some of the best stats you’ll see: a max win of €400,000, a 10,000x multiplier, and a betting range that starts at €0.20 and is capped at €40.
And what the latter means is that you won’t need to cough up a fortune each time if you’re chasing that magnificent top prize.
Conclusion
Buying Re-spins is a reasonably inexpensive way to get not only some action in your life but hopefully, you’ll score a cash injection too. And while we’re on that topic, I did enjoy the increasing multipliers you can scoop up during the Free Spins round.
So, while the features aren’t terribly innovative or nail-bitingly exciting, they’re decent. Based on the simplicity of Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways slot, I reckon it’s a good game for newbies or chilled players who like their action a bit more mellow.
To clarify, by “chilled”, I don’t mean players who don’t care about scoring a big win because, let’s face it, the 400k on offer here is a carrot deliberately dangled for the benefit of the high rollers among you.
