Game Mechanics

With so many ways to win, it is impossible to have fixed paylines, so the game offers wins for collecting symbols on adjacent reels. These symbols will explode, causing new symbols to cascade down from above to keep your winning streak going.

Wagers on Rainbow Riches Megaways is thankfully perfectly normal you can stake from €0.20 up to €20.00 per spin in pursuit of the game max payout of €250,000!
