The Megasaur pokie is one of the few SpinLogic titles at Fair Go Casino that carries a progressive jackpot, which is exactly why it keeps a loyal following among Aussie punters. The theme is prehistoric: towering dinosaurs, volcanic skylines and a monster-sized reptile that gives the game its name.
Fair Go lists Megasaur as a progressive on its site. Beyond that, the operator does not publish paylines, RTP or a max win figure, so we will not guess at them. This page covers what the game is actually like, how to find it in the lobby, and how to pair it with the right bonus.

What Megasaur looks and feels like
Megasaur belongs to the older generation of SpinLogic games, which means bold cartoon artwork, a chunky reel frame and a soundtrack that leans into jungle drums and roars. The star symbol is the Megasaur itself, a hulking creature that dominates the reels when it lands. Supporting symbols are smaller dinosaurs and the usual high-card icons dressed up in stone and bone.
It is not a subtle game. Spins are quick, animations are loud, and the whole thing is built around the hope of a big reptile stomping across the screen. If you like the slow, atmospheric style of Ghost Ship, Megasaur will feel more like a Saturday matinee. That is the appeal.
The progressive jackpot, explained honestly
Fair Go describes Megasaur as a progressive pokie. A progressive jackpot grows by taking a small slice of wagers until someone triggers it, then resets to a seed amount. The current jackpot value is shown on the game's own meter, not on this page, so always check the in-game display before you play.
- Qualifying conditions (bet level, feature trigger) are explained in the in-game info panel. We do not publish them because Fair Go does not.
- Progressives are typically paid in full, but confirm the current terms with 24/7 live chat.
- Many bonus offers exclude progressive pokies from bonus play. Read the terms of any code before you spin Megasaur with bonus funds.

How to play Megasaur at Fair Go
- Log in (or create a Fair Go account, it takes a couple of minutes).
- Open the pokies lobby and type "Megasaur" in the search bar. The lobby loads in any modern browser on desktop, iPhone or Android.
- Choose free play first. The demo uses pretend credits and lets you learn the feature triggers without spending a cent. Note that progressive jackpots cannot be won in demo mode.
- Switch to real money, set your bet, and spin.
Which Fair Go bonus suits Megasaur?
Because progressives are often excluded from bonus wagering, the cleanest approach is to use the welcome bonus on regular pokies and reserve part of your real balance for Megasaur.
| Option | Code | Why it fits |
|---|---|---|
| Welcome match | WELCOME | 100% up to $200, redeemable five times, 30x wagering. Build a bankroll, then hunt the progressive. |
| Cashback, no code | None | Deposit $10+ without a code and you qualify for 25% instant cashback if the deposit busts (30% on weekends). Ask live chat. |
| Lobby Jackpots | Opt-in | Separate $0.01-per-spin lobby jackpots that run alongside any game. |

Who should play Megasaur?
Jackpot chasers, obviously. But also anyone who enjoys the classic SpinLogic era: Megasaur sits comfortably beside Aztec's Millions and Spirit of the Inca as a straightforward, no-nonsense progressive. If you prefer modern mechanics such as cluster pays or hold-and-spin, look at Plentiful Treasure instead.
Responsible gambling
Progressive pokies can tempt you to keep spinning "until it drops". It is a game of chance with no guaranteed outcome. Decide your limit before you log in, and stick to it. If gambling stops being fun, call Gambling Help Online on 1800 858 858 or visit gamblinghelponline.org.au. 18+ only.
