5 Lions Megaways: The Free Spins Choice Beneath the 5,000x Cap

The Free Spins round ends the moment its total win reaches 5,000x bet, and any spins left on the counter are forfeited. That hard cap is what gives the selection screen its weight: the 25-spin option with Wild multipliers of 2x to 5x works beneath the ceiling, while the 6-spin option at 15x to 40x can reach it and stop early. The choice is also where this 2021 build breaks from its own line. 5 Lions, 5 Lions Gold and 5 Lions Dance all shipped without a bonus buy; here direct entry costs 100x, the Ante Bet doubles the natural trigger chance, and both doors open onto the same capped round played on a 117,649-way Megaways grid with Tumble wins. High volatility and a 96.50 RTP frame a game whose real decision lands before the feature's first spin.

How to play

5 Lions Megaways from Pragmatic Play stakes each round on six Megaways reels with up to 117649 ways to win and a High volatility profile. The objective is reaching the Free Spins round; the recurring decision is how many spins to take against which Wild Multiplier range.

Set the bet and spin

Set a stake with the plus and minus buttons; the optional Ante Bet doubles the natural chance of Free Spins. Press SPIN. Winning symbols Tumble away and refill until no win remains, and any Wild in a win applies a random Multiplier. Three or more BONUS symbols open the feature.
Pick a statue and play the round

Seven statues offer spins against Multiplier range: more spins with lower multipliers, fewer with higher, or a MYSTERY CHOICE. Three or more BONUS symbols mid-round award a Retrigger of the same spin count. The 5000x bet cap ends the round early; wins credit when it ends.

Ways to play

Six reels of 2-7 symbols each produce up to 117,649 Megaways per spin. All three entries share one math frame: RTP holds at 96.50% across base play, the 25x Ante Bet and bought Free Spins, and any round stops at 5,000x bet.

Base Game

Reel height randomizes between 2 and 7 symbols per reel every spin, so ways equal the product of the six heights, peaking at 117,649. Winning symbols pay, tumble away and refill until no win remains. A Wild lands only on reels 2-5 and applies a random 1x-40x Multiplier to every winning combination using it, during spins and tumbles alike.
Free Spins

Three or more BONUS symbols, or a purchase at 100x total bet, open a choice of seven options: 25 spins with 2x-5x wild multipliers down to 6 spins with 15x-40x, plus a Mystery Choice drawn from the other six. A Retrigger adds the originally chosen spin count. Reaching 5,000x bet ends the round and forfeits remaining spins.
Ante Bet (25x)

Raising the bet multiplier from 20x to 25x lifts the total bet by 1.25x (a $2.00 stake becomes $2.50) and doubles the natural Free Spins trigger rate by placing more BONUS symbols on the reels. Payouts still calculate as for 20x, RTP stays 96.50%, and the Buy Free Spins option is disabled while the toggle is on.
