Mega Moolah is the daddy of all progressive jackpot games on the Microgaming platform offering wins of at least $1m to any player lucky enough to trigger its frequently huge progressive jackpot.

The first thing to realise about the Mega Moolah jackpot is that there are four tiers of jackpot prize, ranging from Mini (starting at 10.00 per win) up to the huge Mega progressive jackpot which starts at 1,000,000.

How much you wager on each spin determines which level of progressive you are playing for in your game.

Another key aspect of the machine is to understand that it is not just every other Mega Moolah machine that pays into this jackpot. Four other variations of the game, including Isis, Summertime and 5 Reel Drive all pay into this single jackpot fund and all can trigger a life-changing jackpot win.

The original Mega Moolah however is based on an African safari theme and its buffalo, elephant, lion, monkey, giraffe, kudo and zebra symbols are immediately recognisable to players across the globe.

There are 25 possible paylines per spin with a maximum coin per spin value of 125. The game features plenty of wilds, free spins, multipliers and scatters, as well as extensive bonus and free spin features to keep players entertained.

The progressive is won by spinning the wheel in the randomly triggered bonus game. The more you bet on the spin, the greater your chances are of landing the higher jackpots, including the Mega Progressive.

In the online realm, Mega Moolah has achieved epic status amongst lovers of the progressive slots due to its minimum jackpot of $1m and the scale of its wins for users. The biggest winner came back in December 2012, when UK resident John Orchard won the equivalent of $9.88m from one 30p spin of the wheels.

So if you are wanting to play the only guaranteed millionaire-maker Microgaming slot, you need to get lucky when playing Mega Moolah!
