5 Lions Megaways

5 Lions Megaways is a high-volatility Megaways slot from Pragmatic Play with an Asian-inspired theme and a dynamic 7×6 layout capable of producing up to 117,649 ways to win.

How 5 Lions Megaways works

The number of symbols shown on the reels can change from spin to spin, which changes the number of active ways to win. At the game's maximum configuration there are 117,649 ways. Winning combinations trigger the Tumble feature: winning symbols disappear and new symbols fall into their positions, allowing additional wins to develop from the same paid spin.

The Gold Lion acts as the Wild and substitutes for regular symbols, while Yin and Yang symbols act as Scatters.

Seven Free Game choices

Landing the required Scatter combination can trigger the Free Game feature. Pragmatic Play's launch information confirms that players can choose between seven different Free Game modes. The choices vary the number of free spins and the multiplier values available, so the feature is not a single fixed bonus configuration.

Three or more additional Scatters during the feature can extend the Free Games. In jurisdictions where the option is enabled, the Free Game feature can also be purchased for 100x the stake. Availability of a feature purchase depends on the operator and local rules.

RTP, volatility and maximum win

BestCasinoSA records the standard theoretical RTP at 96.50% and the game as high volatility. RTP can vary between certified operator configurations, so check the information screen in the exact version you are playing.

Our current game record lists a maximum win of 5,000x the stake. High volatility means results can be uneven over short sessions; neither the RTP nor the maximum-win figure predicts what will happen in an individual session.

5 Lions Megaways vs other Pragmatic Play slots

If you prefer cluster-style gameplay rather than changing Megaways reels, compare Sugar Rush. For a Pay Anywhere game with Tumbles and multiplier bombs, see Sweet Bonanza. These games use different win mechanics and volatility can produce very different short-session results.

Responsible play

Treat the demo as a way to understand the rules, not as evidence that a real-money session will behave the same way. Set a Rand budget before playing, do not chase losses, and stop when the amount allocated to the session is gone.
