Moriarty Megaways Symbols & Payouts

The symbols to look out for here are the Moriarty character and his accessories, such as a ring and chess pieces. The number and letter symbols from a deck of cards represent the lower-paying symbols, which award smaller wins when they land.

The pocket watch wild symbol appears on rows 2 - 5 on the top tracker, and it can substitute for any of the standard symbols on the reels, excluding special symbols. 

Here’s how the game pays out based on a £1 spin (coin value of 0.05):

Symbol Match 2 Match 3 Match 4 Match 5 Match 6
Moriarty 0.50 1.00 5.00 10.00 25.00

Moriarty Megaways Bonus Features

Look out for special features like cascading wins, a free spins round, and special modifiers which come with big potential multipliers, as introduced below: 

Top Tracker Reel

An extra reel is present above rows 2, 3, 4, and 5, and symbols land here with every spin to help create winning combinations. This is also the only location where the wild symbol can land during the base game.

Cascading Wins

Every winning symbol becomes part of a reaction and is removed from the reels. New symbols drop in from above to replace the winning symbols, creating chances for extra winning combinations. The reactions will continue until there are no more winning combinations on the reels. 

Free Spins Round

Get three bonus symbols anywhere on the game grid to trigger 15 free spins, or land more scatter symbols to get an additional five free spins each, up to a maximum of 30 spins. An unlimited multiplier is active during the free spins round - it starts at 1x and increases by one every time there is a cascading win. 

Modifiers

The game comes with several modifiers, each of which changes the gameplay in a certain way.

Sherlock’s Max Megaways can be triggered on any spin, and it forces the reels into the maximum configuration of 117,649 ways to win. This feature starts with a multiplier of 1x and increases every time a cascade is triggered. 

Watson’s Mystery Bonus symbol can also be triggered on any spin, and it adds mystery symbols to the grid, which will be transformed into the same paying symbol. The multiplier for this feature starts at 1x and increases with each cascading win.
