Rules and figures
Cascades and multipliers
| Element | Value |
|---|---|
| Layout | 5 reels, 1,024 ways |
| RTP | 96.92% |
| Maximum win | 25,000x the stake |
| Cascade | Winning tiles vanish, new tiles fall, the multiplier steps up |
| Base game multiplier | x1, x2, x3, x5 per consecutive cascade |
| Free spins | 3 scatters award 12 free spins |
| Free spin multiplier | x2, x4, x6, x10, and it does not reset between spins |
| Gold tiles | Reels 2, 3 and 4 can show gold-framed tiles that turn into wilds after a win |
Ways-to-win means matching tiles on adjacent reels from the left pay in any row position, so 1,024 combinations are live on every spin. The base multiplier resets when a spin ends. The free-spin ladder is different. It holds its step across all twelve spins, which is where the big rounds come from, since a long cascade that arrives once the ladder has reached x10 multiplies every single win in that chain by ten.
Free spins and gold tiles
Three scatters land often enough to make free spins a realistic target in a session. Gold-framed tiles on the middle three reels turn into wilds after taking part in a win, and a wild left behind on reel three is the single most useful thing that can happen mid-chain. Scatters can land anywhere. Three more scatters during the round can award additional free spins. The full paytable is a tap away in the info panel.

Play Mahjong Ways

- Start the spin and observe the cascade counter on the left.
Demo and turbo play
In the lobby, most PG Soft titles have a demo option that uses the same maths, while turbo mode speeds up the cascades for players who already know what they are watching. Auto spin includes stop-on-loss and stop-on-win settings worth setting before a long session.
Feature buys and stakes
The Buy Feature option, where offered, buys straight into free spins at a multiple of the stake and is a high-variance shortcut. Use it with money you have already written off. Bet size times level sets the stake, and the total is shown before each spin.

Stake and budget
Mahjong Ways has medium volatility and a very high ceiling, which means frequent small cascades and rare rounds that reach the top of the ladder. A stake equal to 1% of the session budget makes a hundred-spin dry patch survivable, so BDT 2,500 means BDT 25 spins. Wins are paid at the stake in play, and the 25,000x cap at BDT 25 is BDT 625,000. Stop rules matter more than the ladder, and a player who decides the exit points before the first spin keeps far more of the good rounds than one who decides during them. BDT 25 spins also keep a hundred-spin dry patch within a single session's budget.

Bonuses on Mahjong Ways
PG Soft is included among providers eligible for the slots promotion; therefore, Mahjong Ways spins count toward the 18x requirement on the 100% first-deposit match described on the welcome promotion page. Regular players lean on two smaller offers instead: a 20% reload on the week's first slot deposit, and a 9% top-up on any deposit that clears at 1x. Cashback follows weekly at 5% of losses. Choose the promotion at the cashier before making payment. On qualifying games, cash balance is wagered before bonus funds. After each spin, the account's bonus entry shows the remaining turnover. Nothing else needs to be done.
