Mega Ball is a new addition to Evolution Gaming’s 2020 roster of live casino games. It takes the form of a fast-paced entertaining game show featuring rounds which give players the chance to win big. It’s a fantastic bingo-style game where the aim is to make as many lines as you can per card in order to make money. The more lines you make, the more you can win. You can win as much as £500,000 and you can buy and play up to 200 cards at once. It has a return to player percentage of 95.5%. Are you intrigued? Let’s investigate this game further.

How do you play?

This game combines bingo-style game mechanics with lottery bouncing ball lottery elements to create a thrilling online live dealer version of these games which has the feel of a fabulous casino game show. It is set in a colourful virtual studio which frames the main element of the game, the ball machine, which contains 51 coloured balls. During the game, 20 balls, plus one, or occasionally two, additional ball(s) will be drawn in each round, the last of which will be the Mega Ball(s).

The dealer stands at the centre of the screen, with the ball machine to their left. Pay lines are displayed at the bottom of the screen. Each round involves the machine mixing up the balls and drawing 20 of them. The Mega Ball, the 21st ball of the round, emerges last. The pay lines are matched to each drawn ball. All matching numbers on players’ cards will then be marked off as cards are drawn. The numbers players need to make lines and win the round are highlighted. Players bet on the cards that will be drawn, in a similar fashion to how you would wager on the spinning reels in a slot game. The most you can bet is £100 per card, whilst the minimum bet is 10p per card. When the 21st and last ball of the round is drawn, a multiplier is applied to your win. This multiplier is valued from 5x to 100x. If the Mega Ball completes a line, you get the chance of adding a massive 1,000,000 multiplier to your win.

To add to the atmosphere of the game, the lighting dramatically changes when the Mega Ball emerges to add to the tension and excitement of the game.

Additional Features

As we have seen, Mega ball gives you the chance to bet on cards. After all, an essential element of all casino games is that players have something to wager upon. Players set the value of the cards.  On rare occasions, an extra Mega Ball may be drawn.

There are no random bonuses or features that can be activated suddenly in Mega Ball. This means that huge multipliers can be applied setting up the possibility of truly enormous wins. The best total win multiplier in Mega Ball is 1,000,000x the bet, which outstrips anything found in online slots.

It is perhaps a good idea for punters to play Mega Ball with a conservative strategy, at first until you’re familiar with the gameplay and know what works well for you. When you have mastered the gameplay, you can bet more, aim high and reach for that truly magnificent multiplier to make some serious money.
