Game Overview
Great Rhino Megaways brings Pragmatic Play's beloved African wildlife theme to the Megaways format with staggering results. Set against a golden savanna backdrop with rhinos, cheetahs, crocodiles, and gorillas, this slot features up to 200,704 ways to win — a massive upgrade from the original Great Rhino's 20 paylines. The additional horizontal reel above the main grid creates the extra ways beyond the standard 117,649 Megaways ceiling.
Tumbling reels (cascading wins) remove winning symbols and drop fresh ones in, with each tumble increasing the win multiplier by 1x during free spins. This unlimited multiplier is the centrepiece of the game's 20,000x maximum payout potential. The Ante Bet option increases your stake by 25% for doubled scatter frequency, giving impatient players a shortcut to the lucrative free spins round. For SA players who love African-themed slots, Great Rhino Megaways represents Pragmatic Play at their very best.
Key Features
- • 200,704 Ways: Six main reels plus a horizontal bonus reel create more ways to win than almost any other Megaways slot on the market.
- • Tumbling Reels: Winning symbols explode and new ones cascade in. Multiple tumbles per spin build momentum and increase free spin multipliers.
- • Unlimited Multiplier Free Spins: 4+ scatters trigger free spins where every tumble increases the multiplier by 1x with no cap. Long tumble chains can build multipliers of 20x, 30x, or higher.
- • Ante Bet: Increase your stake by 25% to double the chances of triggering the scatter-based free spins round.
- • Super Free Spins: Collect enough scatter symbols in the base game to unlock the enhanced Super Free Spins with boosted starting multipliers.
