More About Microgaming’s Mega Moolah
Mega Moolah first appeared in November 2006 but it started as an online slot game before dipping its feet into the progressive jackpot world. The jackpot slot features four different jackpots with the top seeding at €1 million. Since then, the slot has become a force to reckon with, with at least 18.4 million jackpots paid out in all its tiers. The amount paid out to players in these tiers is now approaching €1 billion (€919 million).
Fifteen years in the business, this African-themed slot has set new payout records cementing its name as one of the most popular progressive jackpot slots. One of the biggest wins ever recorded on the slot was back in September 2018. A lucky player walked away with a mind-blowing €18.9 million.
The record stood for nearly three years until Absolootly Mad: Mega Moolah stepped in with a new record payout. April 2021 saw lady luck shine her magical wand on a lucky player who walked away with a jaw-dropping €19.4 million. This release is a variant of the original Mega Moolah.
