How a spin of 5 Lions Megaways runs
This block walks one round from stake selection to the moment you stop.
-
1
Room from A$0.20 to A$300
Open the stake field and choose anything from A$0.20 up to A$300. At A$2 you are staking a middle amount; A$1 keeps the round cheap while you learn the grid. Switching the Ante Bet on lifts the stake to 1.25x of whatever you picked.
-
2
Matches from the left reel
Symbols land on six reels of two to seven rows, and matching neighbours from the leftmost reel form a way. A win removes those symbols and fresh ones tumble into the gaps, repeating while new wins keep forming, all inside the same spin.
-
3
5 Lions Megaways wild multipliers
Any WILD carrying a multiplier feeds that figure into a winning combination it completes, from 1x up to 40x. Because it only applies where the wild takes part, a plain match without one pays face value. The Ante Bet does not change these payouts.
-
4
Choosing among seven options
Three BONUS medallions anywhere on the grid open the free spins screen. Pick one of seven options, or take the Mystery Choice, and the round runs on special reels with a retrigger that repeats your chosen spin count.
-
5
Limits set in advance
Nothing tells you when the free spins arrive or how a session will end, so fix a loss limit and a session reminder before spinning. Choose figures you can lose without consequence, then stop at them rather than after a big win.

Before your first paid spin
5 Lions Megaways free spins and ante bet
Wild multipliers that climb
Three or more BONUS symbols start it: you pick 1 of 7 options, from 25 spins with a 2x-5x multiplier to 6 spins with 15x-40x, and a retrigger repeats your count under a 5,000x cap.
When you want more triggers
At 25x instead of 20x, this toggle lifts the total stake to 1.25x: it doubles the natural trigger chance and adds BONUS symbols, while paytable values stay the same and buying is switched off.
Where do the ways come from?
Six reels, each 2 to 7 symbols tall, give up to 117,649 ways every spin; wins tumble and new symbols drop in, and a WILD adds a 1x-40x multiplier to any line it joins.
Where does the rest of your stake go?
One figure governs it: RTP is a long-run average, the version in play is the one the game rules show, and it holds with the ante bet and with bought free spins.
RTP 96.50%
| Version | Return per 100 staked |

Certain figures, uncertain outcomes
Line up the five releases
All five versions list 96.50%, so the difference sits in the ceiling: 2,700x in 5 Lions Dance against 8,000x in 5 Lions Megaways 2.

Where do real wins land?
Funded spins count in Australian dollars from A$0.20, and every win is real and withdrawable once verification is complete.
Play for real
Check the country rules first
Three settings settle it: your top stake, the biggest possible payout, and which buttons appear.
-
1
Bet and win ceiling — A$300 → A$1 500 000
The ceiling here is A$300 a spin, and a full 5,000x run at that stake would pay A$1,500,000.
-
2
5 Lions Megaways autoplay
Autoplay is available, letting a set number of spins run on your chosen stake, though no setting decides which symbols land or when the bonus arrives.

5 Lions Megaways paid entry
Buying free spins is allowed here, so the A$200 round at the A$2 stake stays on the menu, and the ante toggle sits beside it.
