Mega Moolah - Review, Free Spins & Bonuses

Mega Moolah, launched by Microgaming in 2006, is the most famous progressive jackpot slot in the world. Its Mega jackpot starts at £1 million (or the local equivalent) and has paid record wins of more than €18 million.

Five reels, three rows and 25 paylines on an African safari theme. The base game is simple, and the jackpot can be triggered on any spin.

• Lion wild – substitutes for other symbols and doubles wins it completes.
• 15 free spins – three or more monkey scatters; all wins are tripled, and the feature can be retriggered.
• Jackpot wheel – triggered at random, it awards one of four jackpots: Mini, Minor, Major or Mega.

Mega Moolah has an RTP of about 88.12%. This is far below the 96% average, because a large share of every bet goes into the jackpots. RTP is a long-term average over millions of spins, not a guide to any single session.

Medium volatility gives a balance of regular small wins and occasional bigger payouts.

A game you play for the dream. The RTP of around 88% is low because a large share of every bet feeds the jackpots, so for everyday play other slots give better value. If you want a shot at a life-changing prize, Mega Moolah is the classic choice.
