Merlin’s Secret Maxways RTP and data analysis
Merlin’s Secret Maxways slot by Microgaming: RTP 96.04%, very high volatility, max win 40,000×. Free demo, no sign-up, and every RTP version.
RTP in context
The headline RTP of 96.04% is 0.1 points below the median of 96.14% across the 3,708 slots in our catalogue, and higher than 32% of them. Among Microgaming slots it ranks 129 of 176, where the average is 96.24%.
What a session costs on average
RTP is a long-run average. Over a very large number of spins, every $1,000 wagered on Merlin’s Secret Maxways returns about $960 and keeps about $40.
Put in session terms: 100 spins at $1 is $100 wagered, which costs about $3.96 on average. A real session can end far from that average, in either direction, especially on a very high volatility slot.
How it is likely to feel
Microgaming publishes Merlin’s Secret Maxways as very high volatility: long dry spells are normal, and the wins that do land can be very large.
No hit frequency is published for this game, so we do not show one. Volatility is the studio’s own label and there is no common scale between studios.
Max win
The published max win is 40,000× the bet: $8,000 on a $0.20 bet, $40,000 on a $1 bet, $200,000 on a $5 bet. It is a ceiling set by the game maths and is reached rarely or never in normal play, so it should not set your budget.
That is higher than 96% of the 1,256 slots with a published max win; the median is 5,250×.
