Wild West Gold Megaways

It's doubtful you need us to tell you how prevalent Megaways has become. From humble beginnings under the watchful eye ofBig Time Gamingto one of the most successful licences in online gambling. The growth has been phenomenal, and it's not without its detractors. When the upgrade process significantly improves the experience of an older slot, fair dues, it can be a win-win situation for all involved. At other times, though, the Megawaysification of an already established game can come across like a cynical, if not lazy, cash grab. Not saying that Wild West Gold Megaways falls into the latter category, but Pragmatic Play has done little to massively justify the Megaways re-release. Quite the opposite, really. In terms of audio-visuals and gameplay, Wild West Gold Megaways is as solid as ever. If you've ever daydreamed about Dead or Alive Megaways, this, along withDesperados Wild Megaways, is about as close as it gets, although when directly compared it is more of aThe Dog House Megawayssibling than anything else. It might have been nice if cascades had been wedged in there somewhere, yet the wild multipliers make up for their exclusion. More so when wilds are sticky in free spins - then they can be a riot. And yet, the stench of disappointment lingered throughout the review. Not because of anything Wild West Gold Megaways does, but what it isn't allowed to do. What continually drove home the feeling of 'why did they bother?' is the decreased potential. From the 6,750x of the previous version to the5,000xof this one. Imagine ifNetEntever released Dead or Alive Megaways with a 5K win cap slapped on, the thing would be run out of town tarred and featured before noon. To sum up, Wild West Gold Megaways could have been a genuine badass. However, it's not, and that's a shame. If fans of the first were screaming out for a Megaways version, they've got it, but it's hard not to wonder why Pragmatic Play went with the low (for Megaways) max win. Had they backed it with a more impressive figure, Wild West Gold Megaways could have been that outlaw who saunters into town and causes everyone to stare at the ground to avoid making eye contact. Never mind a knife; at this level of potential, there was a feeling Wild West Gold Megaways brought trongs to a gunfight.
