The Rick and Morty Megaways slot is produced by Blueprint Gaming. Blueprint Gaming are one of the smaller slot development companies on the market at the moment and do not offer their own casino platform. Instead they lease their games out to casinos using other platforms. Blueprint Gaming do not always publish the RTP information for their slots in the paytable. However, in this instance they have done, which means we know that the house edge for Rick and Morty Megaways is 3.45%.
Rick and Morty Megaways is a 6 reel slot, with each reel varying in height. The number of symbols that make up a reel can change at random, with the potential for each reel to contain 7 symbols. There is also an additional row of symbols lying on top of reels 2-5. The game does not use traditional paylines, instead it operates with a maximum of 117,649 different possible “megaways”, playing from left to right.
Avalanches – Every time you form a win the symbols involved will disappear, existing symbols will drop down into those places and new symbols will be added at the top of the reels. Win again and the process will repeat and will continue doing so as ling as you keep landing wins.
Theme
The slot is based on the very popular adult cartoon that sees the unlikely pairing of an unremarkable high school kid and is super intelligent grandad. In each episode the two of them head to different parts of the galaxy to take part in whatever outrageous adventure Rick has planned for the both. The slot has key elements from some of the more memorable episodes, giving fans the chance to spot some of their favourite moments.
