Online slot games come and go. Thousands of online casino games greet online players on various websites every day, with some boasting of riches and cash in their names. Of course, players can win money on every game out there, but only one lives up to its name as well as its nickname. Mega Moolah is frequently referred to as the Millionaire Maker, and there is no exaggeration in either title.

Mega Moolah is a popular game for reasons beyond its jackpot that boasts of life-changing money. It is offered on most online casino websites that partner with Microgaming for gaming content because it is an attraction for customers from around the globe.

The five-wheel game is a progressive slot with 25 lines and ways to win free spins and bonus game play. It is compatible with PC and Mac computers via desktop, laptop, or Android or iOS mobile device. The game is accessible through all well-known web browsers, such as Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Safari. Anyone with internet access can play.

The central theme of Mega Moolah is money, obviously, but the graphics match with an African safari, complete with wild animal noises, jungle background, and even head hunter trophies as the scatter icons. A Wheel of Fortune jackpot game is included, as well. And the latest editions of the Mega Moolah online slot have branched out to include new themes: American, Egyptian, and summer holiday.

Four jackpots await players. The payouts for the Mini, Minor, and Major jackpots vary over time, but the Mega jackpot is the one to hit, as it always offers a minimum of £1 million. Players must hit the right combination to access the jackpot wheel, at which point the Mega is up for grabs.

The jackpots are always significant on Mega Moolah. Any jackpot is exciting to win and gives a player bragging rights for quite some time, as most online casinos post names and amounts of any sizeable jackpot wins on their sites to give them some time in the spotlight.

Some of the biggest jackpot wins, however, make the news because the amount of money is so momentous.

The biggest one to date happened in October of 2015. Jon Heywood of Crewe in Cheshire, UK, played a single-round Mega Moolah game on Betway’s online casino site and hit the Mega. That jackpot had grown to £13,209,300 ($20,062,600 or €17,879,645). He bet 25p, and it paid off in a big way. Not only did the jackpot set a world record for a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records, but the Army veteran who recently toured in Afghanistan, needed the money to pay for the best medical treatment for his father, who was waiting for a heart and lung transplant at the time.

Smaller jackpots are won on a regular basis and continue to change people’s lives. Whether Mega Moolah wins pay for medical treatment or simply a few unexpected luxuries, the online slot has been responsible for many feel-good stories. Win or lose, Mega Moolah not only gives players a chance at that kind of money but the opportunity to dream. And that planning and dreaming can be priceless.
