The Wish Master Megaways Review
Cascading reels, a larger reel set and a bigger max payout are the main noticeable changes that strike you with this game. The Wish Master Features are the same as before and once again, NetEnt has decided not to go down the route of free spins for this game. Rightly or wrongly, they have stuck to their guns and stayed true to the original but will this please all fans? It's unlikely but then again, you can't please all the people all the time!
Design
Even after 10 years worth of graphic design enhancements, NetEnt has done very little to distinguish this slot from the last. We find ourselves in the same cave setting surrounded by gold coins and of course, a special lamp where a certain someone resides. The theme tune is exactly as before with a mysterious and slightly eerie undertone. The main difference with this new creation is that it works perfectly on mobile devices without any lag.
Game Play
Given the lack of variation throughout the game, it is a mystery how the original version of this game became quite so popular. There's nothing to break it into any exciting sections and you know what's coming most of the time. The addition of the Megaways mechanic has made this infinitely more interesting so if you were a fan before, then you are certainly going to be now.
Win Potential
One of the biggest changes to this game is that the max payout has been increased to 27,018x. This is a huge jump and the number of pay lines has also grown infinitely as well. Watch out for high volatility in this one with your bankroll being at the mercy of that mysterious genie and you won't see wins landing very frequently. The RTP is 96.07%.
Our Verdict
Admittedly, we were more than just a little excited when we heard that this game was getting a revamp and when we found out it was going to include Megaways, we were chuffed. We did hope for a little more variation in the gameplay and wondered if NetEnt might include a couple of different features. Alas, it wasn't to be, but we still enjoyed what they gave us and we are pretty sure many of you will as well.

He still loves the basic format but also has a soft spot for games with big bonus rounds that progress as you play. Immortal Romance is one of his favourite slots of all time.
