This slot is also a beautifully designed jungle slot with many options including a Buy a Bonus Feature, retriggers and lots of Megaways.

And, last but not least, a sky-high prize potential.

With Great Rhino Megaways, you can land a top prize of no less than 20,000x the bet.

Yes, with the maximum bet of $€125, you can get your hands on $€2.5 million. How bizarre and surreal is that! I’ll tell you more about it right now.

Great Rhino Megaways slot – Gameplay and Features

The game takes place in the savannah, and we see the most beautiful wild animals: jaguars, gorillas, crocodiles, bears and pelicans.

However, the animal to look for is the giant rhino with a golden horn! That is, of course, quite unusual! This symbol acts as a wild symbol.

It’s a Megaways slot, which most of us have seen by now:

• You have 6 reels with symbols and on top an extra row with 4 symbols.
• Reels 1 and 6, have at least 2 and at most 7 symbols.
• Reels 2 to 5, there are at least 3 and at most 8 symbols.
• You can get up to 200,704 Megaways (7x8x8x8x8x7).
• There is the Avalanche (Cascading) mechanism, so you get a free re-spin after every winning combo. Pragmatic Play calls this the Tumbling Feature.

Two mathematical models to choose from – The Regular Variant or the Bet Multiplier Variant

If you choose the Regular Variant, the betting range is between $€0.20 – $€100.

If you choose the Bet Multiplier Variant, the betting range is between $€0.25 – $€125. With the Bet Multiplier Variant, you have (on average) twice as often the free spins. It means that in the main game (on average), there are fewer prizes.

The RTP’s of both versions are almost the same.

How do you get the free spins? Via the main game OR via the Buy a bonus feature

If you spin 4, 5 or 6 scatters in the main game, you get access to the free spins.

If that takes too long, you can opt for the Buy a bonus feature (“Buy Free Spins”). The price is 100x the original wager. By the way, this is only possible if you play the Regular Variant.

The free spins: 4 variants to choose from

The free spins are pretty standard here, as with most Megaways slots. After each winning combo, the multiplier goes up by +1. If you spin many winning combo’s, then the multiplier increases rapidly. If afterwards, you are spin a herd of (the same) wild animals, it can become very lucrative!

You can choose from four options, once you have won the free spins.

With four scatters you have:

• Option 1: 15 free spins and a starting multiplier of 1x
• Option 2: 10 free spins and a starting multiplier of 5x
• Option 1: 5 free spins and a starting multiplier of 10x
• Option 4: Random free spins and a random starting multiplier

With 5 and 6 scatters, you have similar options, but with more free spins.

Option 4, of course, is the most exciting. If you’re lucky, you’ll get lots of free spins as well as a high starting multiplier.

Payout percentage (RTP)

The RTP is at least 96.47% and, at the most 96.58% maximum. Pragmatic Play does not indicate which variant has the most favourable RTP. Nor what the RTP is of the Buy Free Spins.

Great Rhino Megaways slot – the variance (volatility) is high.

According to Pragmatic Play, this online slot has a high variance (score is 5 out of 5).

We expect most top prizes will be between 500x and 1,000x the bet. We have not yet seen the real massive top wins on most Pragmatic Play slots games. And I don’t want to give you false expectations, of course.

Great Rhino Megaways slot – pros and cons

Advantages:

• Beautifully crafted Megaways slot that suits all those players who like the safari slots
• Two mathematical (calculation) models – that’s unique for Megaways slots.
• Thanks to the Bonus Buy option, you can do business straight away, if you want to.

Disadvantages:

• Not the most original or innovative Megaways slot
• The slot lacks a little depth.
• If you’ve played Big Time Gaming slots like Holy Diver Megaways or Royal Mint Megaways, you know what I’m talking about

Great Rhino Megaways slot – who will like the slot? And who won’t?

It’s a beautifully designed Megaways slot, and you can win some very nice prizes here. However, we have seen this slot more often, so it does not add much.

But it’s a very nice slot to play.
