Genie Jackpots Megaways

By Becky M. | Updated 16 July 2026

Genie Jackpots Megaways is what happens when Blueprint Gaming takes a slot players already know and rebuilds it around the Megaways engine. Released in 2018, it was one of the first titles Blueprint produced after licensing Big Time Gaming’s system, and it had something to prove. The Arabian theme is familiar ground, but the variable reel setup pushes ways to win up to 117,459, which is far from standard.

If you played the original Genie Jackpots, this is the same genie let out of a much bigger lamp. The core identity is still there, but the maths model and features have been rebuilt from scratch. Worth flagging early: despite the name, there’s no progressive or fixed jackpot here. The max win caps at 10,000x your stake, which is strong, but don’t go in expecting a seven-figure pot.

Quick Facts

Technical Features

Six reels, each showing between two and five symbols per spin. That variable row count is the Megaways engine at work: some spins give you 64 ways, others open the full 117,459. The RTP is 96.52% in base configuration, a touch above the industry average. That said, some casinos run a lower variant at 95.75%, so check the game rules before you sit down for a session.

Volatility is medium-high. In testing, the base game throws out enough small wins to keep your balance ticking rather than draining fast, but the real money is in the bonus rounds. Bets run from £0.20 to £500 per spin, and it plays cleanly on desktop, mobile and tablet.

Design and Theme

The setting is Arabian fantasy: bright sky, drifting clouds, a magic lamp sitting beside the reels. It’s colourful without being garish, and the soundtrack leans into the theme with an Arabic-flavoured score that stays atmospheric rather than annoying. The genie makes regular appearances, bursting from the lamp during the Power Spin feature with genuine energy. It won’t win awards for visual innovation, but it’s well put together and holds up after hundreds of spins without wearing thin.

Symbols and Paytable

Low-value symbols are the standard royals: 9, 10, J, Q, K and A. They show up constantly and keep the hit rate moving, but they won’t do much for your balance. The themed symbols carry the actual weight: swords, turbans and other Arabian icons pay considerably more. The Genie Wild substitutes for everything except the Bonus scatter, and landing scatters on three or more reels triggers the free spins round.

Bonus Features

Two main features drive this slot, and both can genuinely change the course of a session.

The Genie Power Spin triggers randomly during the base game. The genie bursts from his lamp and drops one of several modifiers onto the current spin, with maximum ways guaranteed while it plays out. Think of it as a random rescue: a dead spin suddenly has real potential. Locking wilds, multiplier reels and extra spin modifiers are all possible outcomes.

The Cave of Wonders Free Spins is the main event. Land three or more scatters to get there, or skip the wait with the Make-A-Wish bonus buy. Buying in pushes the RTP to 97.13%, which makes it one of the better feature purchases you’ll find in UK-licensed Megaways slots. Once inside, you pick from several free spin variants: locking wilds, increasing multipliers, sticky-win respins, or extra spins with guaranteed rising multipliers. The multiplier options are where the 10,000x cap lives – those values can spike fast. The increasing multiplier variant is the most volatile of the lot, but it’s also the one most likely to produce the big numbers.
