ZOMBIE SCHOOL MEGAWAYS: OVERVIEW
Last Updated: August 5, 2025Written by Stephen Cummings
Megaways slots are one of our specialties here at SlotsHawk.com so we absolutely had to review Zombie School Megaways which also conveniently comes with one of our favourite themes in slots, a scary horror theme! In Zombie School Megaways you can expect a very high volatility level, a great value for money free spins bonus game and the usual tumble feature which is found in all Megaways games.
ZOMBIE SCHOOL MEGAWAYS: FIRST IMPRESSIONS
When we first began playing Zombie School Megaways for real money, we were impressed by the graphics and symbols and we were pleased to see that there was an ante bet feature which at the cost of double your bet, the bonus game is 5x more likely to trigger. So, we began playing for 20p per spin (as you can see in the video above which we recommend watching before you play) with the ante bet feature active taking our total spend per spin to 40p. Scatter symbols were appearing quite often, so we figured triggering the bonus game would be easy, but once we looked we discovered that it would take a minimum of four scatter symbols on the reels to trigger the free spins.
Zombie School Megaways is certainly fun to spin, but we were not hitting many payouts at all until we finally triggered the 10 free spins courtesy of four scatter symbols and this is where our luck changed. At this point, we were down by over £30, but we won £81.88 during the free spins. We span a few more times after that but then we decided to end our session with a nice profit of around £36.
ZOMBIE SCHOOL MEGAWAYS FEATURES
Before you play, the SlotsHawk team recommends familiarising yourself with all the feature in Zombie School Megaways so you will know what to expect if you do decide to play this online slot machine.
TUMBLE FEATURE
The Tumble feature is always active and means that after every spin, winning combinations are paid and all winning symbols disappear. The remaining symbols fall to the bottom of the screen and the empty positions are relaced with new symbols. The number of symbols on the reels can also randomly increase to a random number for reels that had at least one winning symbol. Tumbling continues until no more winning combinations appear.
ZOMBIE SCHOOL MEGAWAYS FREE SPINS
Hitting 4,5 or 6 scatter symbols will trigger 10,15 or 20 free spins respectively. During free spins, each win is multiplied by a number equal to the total amount of symbols that exploded in the current tumble. No retriggers/respins are available here. If you watch the video near the start of this page, you can watch the bonus game in action.
ANTE BET
You have the option to activate the Ante Bet feature for 2x your bet. This increases the chances of hitting scatter symbols on the reels.

STRATEGIES WHEN PLAYING ZOMBIE SCHOOL MEGAWAYS FOR REAL MONEY
We recommend playing Zombie School Megaways at a casino where you will get its optimal RTP of 96.55% or 95.50%. SlotsHawk actually played this slot at its least optimal RTP of 94.50% and we still managed to turn a profit, so it is possible to play at this level.
We also recommend utilising the Ante Bet feature because as you saw from our experience, we hit a big win during the free spins game which is more likely to be triggered when the Ante Bet is active. You should also take note that Zombie School Megaways is a high volatility slot and like all slots with high volatility at SlotsHawk, you can go through streaks of lots of spins for very small wins.
EXTRA INFO
Played on six reels and up to seven rows with 117,649 paylines, Zombie School Megaways has all the of the appeal which is typical of a high-class Megaways slot game. The Tumble feature is excellent and the free spins bonus game is brilliant thanks to the added multiplier feature.
Important information you should know about Zombie School Megaways includes its adjustable RTP as well as its maximum payout of 10,000x which will only occur once in every 34 million spins on average. The minimum bet level is 20p per spin and the maximum bet is £5 per spin. The variance/volatility level is high too.
Zombie School Megaways was released on 04/08/2025 by Pragmatic Play.
THE SLOTSHAWK VERDICT
“We have a soft spot for Megaways slot games here at SlotsHawk but despite this, Zombie School Megaways is still one of the best slot releases from Pragmatic Play for a while and we even rate this slot as one of the top 15 best Megaways slots of all time.”
