Vault Cracker Megaways

We meet up again with our two buddies specialized in burglaries and hold-ups, in a slightly modified visual and sound environment. The scene takes place inside a robbed vault, where ingots, vases and jewels are strewn about – all that’s left to do is help yourself! And to do that, you’ll have to turn the scrolls!

Among the big changes, the Vault Cracker Megaways game grid now includes 6 reels that can contain from 2 to 7 symbols, delivering a maximum of 117649 ways to win. Another major change made by publisher Red Tiger is the increase in volatility from a fairly low level in the first game to a rather high one from now on. RTP, meanwhile, remains at a reasonable 95.68%.

To line their pockets and pull off a juicy heist, apart from regular payouts, players will need to use the expertise of these thieves by unlocking various features such as chain reactions, Cash Safes, Hold-Up Artist, Heist Master, Heist and Rivalry. But before we go into all that in detail, let’s take a look at how to make simple winning combinations.

Continue what you started

First of all, a bet of between $0.20 and $40 per spin is required to oil the reels of Vault Cracker MegaWays. Winnings are awarded when at least 3 identical symbols appear on adjacent reels, from left to right, starting with the leftmost reel. There’s no need to worry about the position of the symbols on the reels. Symbols such as A, K, Q, J and 10 pay between 0.10x and 0.60x the bet, and symbols such as the gun, piggy bank, necklace or money bag pay between 0.30x and 5x the bet. With each win, winnings symbols will disappear, allowing new symbols to fall and potentially create new winnings.

Behind the names Cash Safes, Hold-Up Artist, Heist Master, Heist or Rivalry lie useful features to enhance the experience, taking the form of prize collection, re-spins, multipliers and Wheel of Fortune bonuses.

Cash Safes

Each safe can contain prizes that will be awarded when unlocked by the Heist Master or Hold-up Artist:

• Bronze safes: they can pay between 1x and 5x the stake.
• Silver chests: They can pay between 8x and 15x the stake.
• Gold chests: They can pay between 20x and 30x the stake.

Hold-Up Artist

When a Scatter of this type appears with Cash Safes, it unlocks them and reveals their prizes. The sum of all prizes is then awarded to the player.

Heist Master

When this Super Symbol covers an entire reel, it triggers the Heist feature for instant prizes.

Heist Feature

Once the feature is triggered, the Heist Master with visible Cash Safe symbols locks onto the screen and unlimited respins start. Only special Cash Safe or Scarlet Rogue symbols can appear during respins. New Cash Safe symbols will also lock during respins.

In this mode, every reel except the one with the Heist Master will receive a Heist Multiplier equivalent to the number of symbols on the reel, from 2x to 7x. By filling a reel with Cash Safes during the bonus, you’ll receive the multiplier for that reel. If more than one reel is filled with Cash Safes at the end of the bonus, their multipliers are added together.

At the end of the Heist bonus, all Cash Safes are opened and the sum of their prizes is multiplied by the sum of the multipliers before being awarded to players. The Heist bonus ends when all reel positions are filled with Cash Safes, or with the Rivalry bonus.

Rivalry

During Heist mode, a special Scarlet Rogue symbol may appear on the reels. Finding one or more such symbols will trigger a spin on the Rivalry Wheel. This wheel is divided into 6 sections, and each Scarlet Rogue symbol appearing during Heist mode will turn one of the sections red. If the wheel stops on a green section, Heist mode continues, otherwise it ends.

Buy Bonus

Two different options are available for purchase, there’s the Hold-up Artist mode, which makes the hold-up Artist symbol appear with Cash Safe symbols on the grid for 10x the stake. Or the Heist mode, which triggers the Heist bonus for 60x the stake.

Taking on the role of villains once again in the new version of Red Tiger: Vault Cracker Megaways, players will be able to return to all the features of the original game, with a Megaways touch, cascading winnings and also a bonus purchase option from now on. There hasn’t really been a big change elsewhere, apart from increased volatility and winning potential. Speaking of which, High Roller players may be disappointed to learn that the loot contained in these vaults will not exceed the 2484x stake limit for this heist. In the end, it’s as if we’d gone to great lengths, but the inside of the safe wasn’t really worth it. In any case, this slot is still an excellent source of entertainment that you can experience for free on our guide.
