Play With the Devil Megaways - Game Overview
Play With the Devil Megaways is a Megaways revamp of the 2024 original Play With the Devil, developed by Red Tiger. It runs on Big Time Gaming's engine with 6 main reels, 2 to 7 rows, and a 4-position horizontal tracking reel above. The number of ways shifts each spin up to a maximum of 117,649. Winning symbols are removed via cascading reactions, with new ones dropping or sliding in to fill the gaps.
The default RTP sits around 95.71-96.12% depending on the configuration, though lower operator variants exist at 95.04%, 93.16%, and 91.12%. Volatility is high, hit frequency lands at roughly 21.16%, and the max win caps out at 14,444x the bet. Stakes range from 0.20 up to 20. There's a Feature Buy option available - 10x for a guaranteed Devil Wild spin with at least one prize, or 80x to jump straight into free spins.
Symbols and Paytable in Play With the Devil Megaways
Low pays are the standard stone-carved royals - 10, J, Q, K, and A - worth between 0.2x and 0.25x the bet for a 6-of-a-kind line. Premium symbols include a trident, a bracelet, a ruby pendant, a piece of parchment, and a pot of gold, paying from 0.4x up to 5x for six matching. The Devil himself acts as the Wild, appearing exclusively on the horizontal reel. He substitutes for all regular symbols and crucially does not get removed during cascades, sticking around to collect any Devil Coins or Bonus Prizes visible on the grid.

Bonus Features in Play With the Devil Megaways
The core loop here is cash collecting through the Devil Wild. Devil Coins land on any main reel carrying multipliers of 0.5x to 2.5x the bet. When the Devil Wild appears on the horizontal reel, he scoops up all coins and Bonus Prizes on the grid once cascades finish. Four instant-win Bonus Prizes exist: Mini (fixed 5x), Minor (fixed 15x), 1 Megacent, and 10 Megacents. The Megacent values are where things get genuinely interesting - they multiply a base coin value (0.01 or 0.1) by the number of active Megaways on that spin.
That means if you land the 10 Megacents prize on a spin with fewer than 10,000 ways, you get less than the original game's Mega Prize would have paid. But hit it alongside Max Ways at 117,649, and you're looking at 11,764.9x the bet. It's a proper double-edged sword, and I think that unpredictability is what makes the mechanic compelling rather than frustrating. The random Nudge feature helps too - if coins land without a Wild, the horizontal reel can nudge to bring the Devil into view. If the Devil lands but there are no prizes, main reels can nudge to reveal some.
Free spins trigger when the Devil throws fireballs at the chests above the grid. One chest opening gives 6 spins, both opening awards 12. During the bonus round, the Devil Wild is sticky on the horizontal reel, collecting prizes every single spin and continuing to hurl fireballs for retrigger chances. The Max Ways feature can also fire randomly on any spin, forcing all reels to display 7 symbols for the full 117,649 ways. When that lines up with a loaded grid of coins, the results can be substantial.

Play With the Devil Megaways Verdict
Red Tiger hasn't torn up the blueprint here - this is largely the same cash-collecting concept from the original, fitted into a Megaways shell. The Devil Wild now lives exclusively on the horizontal tracking reel rather than sitting mid-grid, which changes the feel of the base game quite a bit. The Megacent prize mechanic tying directly to the number of active ways is the standout idea. It's genuinely clever, though it will leave some players cold when the top symbol hits on a low-way spin.
Credit to the studio for not just recycling assets - Play With the Devil Megaways has its own cartoony design and slightly reworked environment, which is more than many sequel slots bother with. If you liked the original but wanted more range in the wins and a bit more mechanical depth, this delivers. The sticky Wild during free spins guaranteeing prize collection every spin is where the real potential sits. Not a game-changer in the broader slot landscape, but a competent upgrade that does what it sets out to do.
