How we build a review from game data
Every review on Megaways is assembled from a game's own data, and this page shows how that works. We set out what a review looks at, which numbers come straight from the data, and what a theoretical figure such as RTP can and cannot tell a player.
What a review covers
Megaways is a reference guide to online casino games, not a casino. We take no bets and hold no deposits, so nothing on a review page involves staking money or handing any over. Each review sets out what is known about the game: the reels and lines, the bonus features, the volatility, the RTP, the maximum win, and the mechanics that make the reel heights shift between spins. A reader comparing two titles can line these points up side by side, because every review looks at the same ground.
What RTP does and does not tell you
RTP is a theoretical figure. It describes the long-term average a game is built to return over a very large number of spins, which says something about how the game is put together and nothing about what any session will deliver. Two consequences follow for anyone reading a number on this website. First, the version a casino offers may differ from the figure we list, since a provider can release the same game with a different setting; the RTP on our page describes the game as catalogued, not the copy in front of a player. Second, because the figure is long-term, it does not guarantee any result. A high RTP does not make a win more likely on the next spin, and a low one does not rule one out. Treat it as a measure of the game's design, not as a forecast.
Where the figures come from
- The key figures on a review page are taken directly from the game data rather than typed in as text.
- Any win multiplier mentioned in the text is checked against the game data before publication.
- Game figures come from a catalogue of game data.
- The source behind the catalogue is not named.
