What The Fox! Megaways Slot Review

Enjoy a lavish night out on the town with the foxes of the title in Red Tiger’s What The Fox! Megaways. Basically, Piggy Riches Megaways with a different animal and a slightly different setting, What The Fox! Megaways offers 117,649 ways to win, with cascading reels, expanding wilds, free spins bonuses, and mega wilds, plus a top prize of over 10, 474x.

What The Fox! Megaways is a six-reel, seven-row online slot that uses Big Time Gaming’s Megaways mechanic. You can start playing for just 0.10 coins per spin, with a limit of 10 coins, using the arrow buttons to set your bet. Then just hit ‘Play’ and enjoy the ride.

As in other Megaways games, you need to land three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels to win. The ‘gold medallion’ symbol is the most lucrative icon, paying out 20x your stake if you can land six together. The maximum payout for a single spin is 10,474.5x, so you could win up to 10, 474x your stake from just a single spin. However, your payouts will depend on your stake per spin. 

Following the Piggy Riches Megaways formula, What The Fox! Has two special features, in addition to the Megaways mechanism, ‘Wily Wilds’ and a free spins bonus round. Here's how you can activate each feature: 

What The Fox! is a Megaways slot that has a random number of winning ways on each spin. Each time you play, the size of symbols in the reel will shrink or expand, changing the ways to win. The maximum number of ways to win in the game is 117,649.

Not only do the Wilds substitute for any symbols but here, the Wily Wild symbols can appear in the base game or the bonus round when the playboy fox character Mr Foxter stops by. These wilds can fill the full reels and each carries a multiplier of up to 7x. If you land three on a spin, the multipliers will be multiplied together, creating a multiplier of up to x343.

Landing three gold bar scatter symbols, will trigger the free spins bonus game. Here, you will spin the Free Spins Wheel to see how many free spins you are awarded (up to 20) and how high your increasing multiplier will start at (1x to 20x). Every scatter that lands adds another free spin.

Think a night out at Las Vegas’ most glittering casinos and you are on the right track. The design is best described as ‘flashy’. Including the lights, which may be an issue for anyone who suffers from light sensitivity. The symbols all depict wealth and hedonism, with whisky, rolls of cash, dice, cigars and more. 

The 95.71% RTP is the same as Piggy Riches, and fair when you consider the huge potential payouts. The game is also highly volatile so probably best left to the high rollers and experienced players.

What The Fox! Megaways is so similar to Piggy Riches Megaways that if you like the former, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t enjoy the latter, and vice versa. It’s just a slightly different theme - casinos rather than a mansion, and foxes as opposed to pigs, but the bonuses and megaways mechanism remains the same. Therefore, it’s really just a question of which animal you prefer and whether you feel like relaxing in a luxury mansion or hitting the town. The choice is yours.
