Mega Ace pushes the Super Ace family to 6 reels and 117,649 ways — and Jili did not bring the same bonus economy with it. HATV reads Mega Ace as a deliberate widening of Super Ace's grid, with the math model re-tuned for a different style of player and a different volatility band than the original.

HATV is a Jili-focused desk. The read below stays inside the Super Ace family, references provider-stated specs only, and avoids cross-vendor framing. See HATV's Mega Ace payout window for how the wider grid lands on PH-IP sessions.
Provider-stated specs
Jili publishes the Mega Ace specs on its operator-facing data sheet:
- Provider-stated RTP: 97% (one of Jili's higher-band releases)
- Reels: 6
- Ways to win: 117,649 (Megaways-style cascading ways count)
- Mechanic: tumble + wild multiplier
- Bonus: free spins triggered by 4+ scatters
- Wild multiplier ceiling: rises during the free-spins round
The 97% RTP is what gets the slot on the HATV shortlist. Most Jili releases land at 96.5% to 96.8% — Mega Ace is a half-point above family median, which on a 6-reel cascading ways count is meaningful.
Where Mega Ace differs from Super Ace
Super Ace is a 5-reel, 1,024-ways title with a fixed grid and a wild multiplier that climbs through the bonus round. Mega Ace keeps the wild multiplier idea but re-shapes nearly everything else:
- Grid: 6 reels (Mega Ace) vs 5 reels (Super Ace)
- Ways: 117,649 (Mega Ace) vs 1,024 (Super Ace)
- Tumble depth: deeper on Mega Ace because more reel positions can refill
- Variance band: Mega Ace runs higher-volatility on the bench than Super Ace
- Bonus entry: Mega Ace's scatter trigger is harder to land on average
You feel the difference in the first 50 spins. Super Ace gives you a tighter grid and faster recognition of which line is paying. Mega Ace gives you a wider grid where pays can show up across six reels, and the tumble chain has more places to drop into. The trade-off: Mega Ace's hit cadence is slower at the same stake band.
Bonus round economy
This is where the Super Ace family stops being a single product. Super Ace's bonus economy is built around frequent re-triggers and a multiplier that climbs in modest steps. Mega Ace re-tunes both — re-triggers are sampled rarer on the family bench, and the wild multiplier climbs in larger jumps when it climbs.
HATV reads the practical effect this way: a Mega Ace bonus round that doesn't extend tends to pay back inside the 5x to 25x stake band. A Mega Ace bonus round that does extend, with a wild multiplier landing on a deep tumble, is where the title earns its 97% headline. The catch is the variance — fewer extending bonus rounds per 1,000 spins than Super Ace, but with a higher-ceiling distribution when they do extend.
For the player who wants Super Ace's friendlier hit cadence, Mega Ace is not the upgrade — it is the higher-volatility cousin. For the player who wants the wider grid and is willing to wait through quieter base-game stretches, Mega Ace is the better-RTP version of the same family idea.
Pre-bench verdict
HATV files Mega Ace as a Tier-A Jili release on RTP grounds — 97% is the headline that earns the seat. The bonus economy is a step up in volatility and a step down in trigger frequency. If you played Super Ace at ₱10 base bet for a 200-spin sit, Mega Ace at the same stake will feel cooler in the first 100 spins and either pay off in a deeper tumble or quietly drain the bankroll if the bonus does not extend.
