What we think about the Thai Flower Megaways slot
"Slightly dated sounds, but otherwise a solid and attractive introduction to Megaways slots."
Is Thai Flower Megaways the right slot for you?
Thai Flower Megaways blossomed into existence in August of 2021 courtesy of Reel Time Gaming as a long overdue remake and update of the developer's original slot, Thai Flower. Benefitting from a little Megaways magic, the game is perfect for those who prefer something different to the usual set paylines approach.
You have the freedom to bet pretty much as you see fit in this game, with stakes ranging from just 10p all the way up to £10 per spin. If you do choose to spin on the higher end of that scale, consider taking advantage of PlayOJO’s responsible gaming tools to help you stay in control. In terms of payouts, you'll be playing for a maximum of 50,000x your bet. Thai Flower Megaways is classed as a high volatility slot, which means the size and frequency of payouts can vary greatly, resulting in an unpredictable and unique experience every time you play.
Graphics-wise, the slot captures elements of Thailand through a handful of quite beautifully drawn images of Asian elephants, gold pots, Thai temples, long-tail boats and, of course, the revered lotus flower, which all animate when involved in a win. The dated sounds really let the game down unfortunately, but overall Thai Flower Megaways is a good game to start with if you're new to the whole Megaways mechanism.
Game features
Thai Flower Megaways isn't exactly bursting with big bonus features, but what it does have is enough to keep most players satisfied. As the name suggests, Big Time Gaming's Megaways mechanic is front and centre, offering 15,625 ways to win. The other part of the slot's name hints at its other highlight, the much adored lotus flower, which in this game serves as both wild and scatter. When aligned correctly as the latter, up to 25 free games will be unlocked for your payout pleasure!
15,625 Ways
The first thing to note about this colourful and ornate slot is its paylines - or rather, ways to win. Thanks to Big Time Gaming's Megaways magic, Thai Flower Megaways features 15,625 ways to win. This is down to the variable size of the symbols on each of the reels, which changes with every spin, meaning each reel can hold 2 to 5 symbols. That also means the number of ways changes on every spin too. You can see how many ways to win there are on your current spin in the box above the reels.
2 of a Kind Pays
Unlike many other slots where you have to get at least 3 matching symbols in a row to trigger a payout, Thai Flower Megaways reduces that to 2 matches for the Thai lady and lotus flower symbols.
Lotus Wild + Scatter
The beautiful pink-tinged lotus flower is the star of this slot show, as the name suggests, which is reflected in the symbol's dual purpose as both a wild symbol and the scatter symbol for the game's bonus round. As a wild, the lotus flower can stand in for any other symbol in the game, with no exceptions!
Free Games Feature
That magical, multi-purpose lotus flower unlocks this slot's main feature, which awards a plethora of free spins. To trigger it, simply land at least 3 lotus symbols anywhere on the reels at once. 3, 4, 5 and 6 lotus flowers unlock 10, 15, 20 and 25 free spins respectively.
What's great about this Thai Flower free play feature is that only 3 symbols from the full set of 11 will be used, instantly boosting your chances of making matches and landing bigger wins - yes please!

My verdict
As I've mentioned before, dabbling with remakes can be tricky, with eliminating much-loved features in favour of the 'meh' ones an ever-present danger. What Reel Time Gaming has done here is a bit of a mixed bag, really. While they've done well to retain the original free games feature, even ramping it up from 12 free spins to up to 25, and added the awesome Megaways mechanic for up to 15,625 ways to win, it's not all good news. One of the major drawbacks of this slot is the dated sounds, which haven't been touched compared to the original - and that's a real shame.
That said, this game still has its place, most suitably as an introductory Megaways slot for those who are as yet unfamiliar with ways to win magic. Thanks to its high volatility, you'll get a good mix of low/high wins on an unpredictable basis. The main feature might take a while to trigger, but when it does, it's a good one!

How does Megaways work?
Megaways is an interesting slot mechanic created by Big Time Gaming that effectively moves away from set paylines and introduces variable pay 'ways' instead. Rather than having to match symbols along set paylines, on Megaways slots you simply match symbols on consecutive reels to trigger a payout. Single matching symbols on consecutive reels is called a 'way', but these are multiplied when there's more than one matching symbol on one or more reels.
These slots work by using symbols of varying sizes on the reels, with anything from 2 to 7 symbols able to appear on a reel at once. Each spin produces a new combination of numbers of symbols, which gives you a different number of possible ways to win every time! Thai Flower Megaways offers 15,625 ways to win, but others offer way more, like Buffalo King Megaways with its astonishing 200,704 ways to win!
What is the Thai Flower Megaways RTP?
The Thai Flower Megaways RTP (Return to Player) is 95.49%. That means over the course of millions of spins, the slot was found to pay out 95.49% of all played funds. That doesn't mean you'll get 95.49% of your own money back in the same session! However, choose to play this or our 5,000+ other games at PlayOJO and you will get money back thanks to OJOplus.
