Ted Megaways Slot – Expert Review & Free Casino Play

Megaways and a foul-mouthed teddy bear – what’s not to like!

Blueprint deliver a sequel to their first Ted release, tying in with the big gross-out comedy hit, with the Megaways engine from Big Time Gaming that is taking over the slot world.

That engine already throws a lot of extra features into the mix, and Blueprint haven’t gone much further than that with the features on this game, which will be a disappointment to some online video slots fans.

Free spins are themed as Thunder Buddies free spins, while every win triggers a cascade (a feature that is common to all Megaways games), there’s also a Thunderwheel to award extra prizes, and mystery symbols in the base game.

The Ted Megaways slot game delivers on aesthetics though, with the bear spouting out relatively family-friendly epithets from a seat in the corner of the screen where he sucks on a beer. The reels are the standard Megaways set-up, which is to say not at all standard, and the game plays beautifully, with a symbol set that’s true to the feeling of the film.

You can also win big prizes, with a 50,000-times stake top prize that will keep you and your imaginary friends in beer for a good few years we should imagine.

But do you want to invite this gross character back into your home?

Let’s have a closer look.

What is the Ted Megaways RTP?

The theoretical return to player of Ted Megaways is 96.03%. This is a house edge of 3.97%. This figure is very acceptable by current market standards. RTP measures the likely return to players as a percentage of all the money gambled on a machine. It is measured with simulated spins than assume certain player behaviours and over a theoretical period of time of many years. You should not treat this number as a prediction.

How many reels and pay lines are there?

Megaways means lots of reels and lots of ways to win. Here we have six vertical reels with a potential maximum of seven symbols on each. A further reel runs across the top of this set with four symbols on it. Megaways calculates wins without pay lines, so there are the usual maximum number here, 117,649. While this is a nice figure to look at, it doesn’t really alter the player’s chance of winning.

The Game

If you’ve played any slots you’ll soon find your way around Ted Megaways.

The Big Green Spin button sits to the right of the reels with a bet total control to the left of them. Under the spin wheel are the auto and turbo spin controls, with the information button above it.

The pay table opens on 9s to Aces, paying out a maximum of 1.5-times stake for a full set of six. Then you have beer bottles paying out up to 2-times stake, a goose paying 2.5-times stake, the girlfriend paying out 5-times stake, and the game logo paying up to 50-times stake.

Mystery Ted’s can be triggered on any spin (Ted shoots a gun), adding up to 100 symbols to the reels. Scatters trigger free spins, with extra symbols being the four needed to set off the round giving you more Megaways. During the free spins round, you can collect Ted symbols to add more Megaways and trigger extra free spins. You can gamble on the Thunder Wheel to win a better combination of spins and Megaways.

The Verdict

We like this game. Blueprint produce a reliably good product and we like this style of humour. If it’s your sort of film you’ll surely enjoy a game based on it.

There’s great gameplay potential in this game, with lots of bonus features that keep the interest high throughout the stages of play. High volatility games put some people off. We don’t think they should – safe play should be the first thing on your mind whatever the game – and Ted can be played for small stakes, which we always recommend.

Give Ted a cuddle today! Burp!
