Who Wants to be a Millionaire Megaways comes with 3 bonus features. With Reactions in the base game giving you the chance for continuous wins, it’s all about the Free Spins feature where you begin with 8 free spins. You can sit in the ‘Hot Seat’ and gamble using lifelines for up to 50 free spins. Once in, there is an unlimited win multiplier and the chance to win unlimited extra free spins.
Reactions
When a winning combination lands, the Reactions feature is triggered. Winning symbols are then replaced by new symbols coming from above on the main reels and from the right on the Extra Reel. Giving you another opportunity to land another winning combination, the process continues as long as you keep winning. Also known as Cascades, Cascading Wins or Avalanches, it’s the most common bonus feature found in Megaways slots.
Free Spins

The Free Spins feature is triggered when you land 3 Millionaire Scatter symbols anywhere during a base game spin. With 8 free spins awarded, you will have a choice to either walk away and begin with 8 free spins or activate the Hot Seat Free Spins Gamble feature.
This feature gives you the chance to begin with up to 50 free spins. With the gamble prize ladder containing 12 rungs, the rungs represent the number of free spins you’ll begin with:
Rung | Number of Free Spins |
---|
1 | 8 |
2 | 10 |
3 | 12 |
4 | 14 |
5 | 16 |
6 | 18 |
7 | 20 |
8 | 22 |
9 | 25 |
10 | 30 |
11 | 40 |
12 | 50 |
Each additional Millionaire Scatter symbol you land when triggering the free spins moves you up a ring in the Hot Seat Free Spins Gamble prize ladder. If you were trigger the free spins with 4, 5 or 6 Millionaire Scatter symbols, you’d begin on rung 2, 3 or 4 respectively. Rungs 2 and 7 are safety net rungs meaning you are guaranteed at least 10 or 20 free spins respectively.
To gamble, you need to select an answer from A, B, C or D and then press ‘Final Answer’. If you’re successful in your gamble, you will move up a ring in the prize ladder. If you’re unsuccessful, you will get 0 free spins (if under rung 2), 10 or 20 free spins (if you’re at rung 2 or 7). Apart from rungs 2 and 7, you can ‘walk away’ and begin the free spins.
Just like the iconic television show, lifelines are available at each gamble. These include:
- 50:50: 2 incorrect answers are removed from the options
- Phone a Friend: this reveals the most likely answer
- Ask the Audience: this reveals the chance of being correct for each answer

Once you’re in, there is an unlimited win multiplier which begins at 1x. Each reaction/winning combination increases the win multiplier value by 1. The win multiplier can only increase with no limits.
Finally, landing 3 or 4 Millionaire Scatters in the Extra Reel will award 4 or 8 additional free spins respectively. You can win unlimited extra free spins too.
