Gonzo’s Quest Megaways is a 2020 reimagining of NetEnt’s original Gonzo’s Quest, built by Red Tiger Gaming — a studio that joined the same corporate stable as NetEnt after both were acquired by Evolution — and distributed through Evolution/NetEnt’s own game channels under the Gonzo’s Quest name and artwork. It replaces the original’s fixed grid with Big Time Gaming’s licensed Megaways engine: each of the 6 reels can display between 2 and 7 symbols on every spin, generating up to 117,649 ways to win.
The conquistador Gonzo, the avalanche win mechanic and the ancient-ruins presentation all carry over from the original: matching symbols connecting from the leftmost reel pay out and are then removed, letting new symbols avalanche down for potential chain wins from a single spin. An unlocked Free Falls bonus round adds an increasing multiplier with each consecutive win during the feature.
Gonzo’s Quest Megaways carries a 95.77% RTP, high volatility, and a maximum win of 20,972x the stake — well above the original Gonzo’s Quest’s ceiling. It’s the Megaways-mechanic branch of the Gonzo’s Quest family, aimed at players who want the same character and theme with a much wider, more variable set of ways to win.
