Online games developer Microgaming could be about to make one lucky player an instant multi-millionaire as the jackpot for its Mega Moolah four-tier progressive online slot has reached $3.5 million.
Mega Moolah is a five-reel 25 payline multiple slot game featuring a wild symbol that substitutes for any other character and also doubles wins. It comes complete with scatters that trigger 15 free spins where wins are tripled and can be re-triggered alongside the progressive where one fortunate player could now win a single amount well above the $2.7 million average.
However, the $3.5 million jackpot now on offer is still well below the game’s largest recorded payout of almost $5.6 million, which was won last April by Finnish player ‘Klaus E’ at online casino BlackjackBallroom.com.
“Those that say thirteen is an unlucky number have only to take one look at ‘Klaus E’ who not only becomes the Microgaming progressive jackpot's thirteenth millionaire but by far and away the biggest jackpot winner we've ever had,' said Roger Raatgever, Chief Executive Officer for Microgaming, at the time.
In addition, the progressive jackpots for two other Microgaming titles are also rapidly approaching one million dollars with Roulette just over $894,000 and Major Millions at $917,000.
