Extra features of the Extra Chilli online slot

Here are the bonuses provided by the BTG title which, in addition to the extra reel and "Reaction" feature, optimize the slot's winning probabilities.

Wild Symbol

The wild symbol in the Extra Chilli Megaways slot machine depicts a series of fireworks ready to explode and acts as a joker symbol. This symbol can assume the value of any other slot symbol to expand or complete winning combinations on the reels in the current game where the slot rules allow.

Free spins

The Extra Chilli slot's free spins bonus can be activated by landing 3 scatter symbols on the reels to form the word HOT on the screen. When activated, the bonus displays a large wheel with many colored segments and allows players to gamble their won bonus plays to obtain more. The free spins bonus initially provides 8 free spins, which the player can gamble by spinning the bonus wheel.

Each additional scatter symbol that appears on the activation screen awards 4 more free bonus spins. If the HOT scatter symbols appear during the free games, they can add another 4 or 8 bonus free spins.

Free spins gamble

When free bonus spins are activated, the player can try their luck on the free spin wheel and win additional free games.

Each spin can result in either a positive outcome when the wheel stops on a green segment or a negative outcome when it stops on a gray segment. In the first case, the plays are increased while in the second case, the player loses all plays and returns to the main game.

Once the desired number of free plays is reached, the bonus can begin with rules similar to those described for the main game and the presence of an increasing win multiplier with an initial value of 1x, which doesn't modify the won prizes, and increases its value with each new winning combination during the bonus.

Drop Feature

Thanks to the Feature Drop, you can force the activation of free spins by paying 50x the base bet value. In standard games, BTG icons can land on the reels to decrease this value.

Slots similar to Extra Chilli

The Megaways game mechanism is the distinctive feature of Extra Chilli but especially of producer Big Time Gaming, who has successfully used it in many other highly successful games among Italian gambling enthusiasts.

Pros and cons of the Extra Chilli slot

The most interesting feature of the Extra Chilli game is undoubtedly the Megaways mode with the variable number of paylines that can be activated in single games and the small reel at the top. Not many slot machines have this gaming mechanism designed by Big Time Gaming, which has given rise to numerous successful games such as NextGen's Medusa Megaways and NetEnt's Dazzle Me Megaways.

The Megaways mechanism in Extra Chilli allows for symbols of different sizes to be drawn on the reels: a greater number of small-sized symbols allows for more paylines to be activated.

It's possible to activate up to a maximum of 117,649 paylines in a single game. The combination of this mechanism with the game's cascade function is also exciting, eliminating winning symbols drawn each time to draw new ones in their place.
