How Mega Moolah plays
Mega Moolah is the best-known progressive jackpot slot online. Released by Microgaming in 2006 and now under Games Global, it has paid some of the largest online slot jackpots on record. The game itself is simple: five reels, three rows and 25 lines with a cartoon safari theme.
The base game has wilds that double wins and free spins with tripled wins. The reason people play it is the jackpot wheel, which can trigger at random on any spin. The wheel picks one of four jackpots, and the top one is a networked progressive that grows from bets at many casinos until someone wins it.
Volatility in practice
Listings rate the base game medium. That describes the game without the jackpot, and it is the part almost every player experiences. The jackpot itself is a lottery: extremely rare and very large.
RTP settings
Listings give 88.12%, including the jackpot contribution. That is about eight percentage points below a typical modern slot. At €1 spins over 1,000 spins, the expected cost is about €119 including the jackpot share, against around €40 on a 96% game. Unless you win a jackpot, your real return is lower still. Play it for the jackpot, knowing the price, or choose a different game for ordinary play.
