It was just four short months ago that the online casino software giant, Microgaming broke the world record for the biggest online video slot jackpot payout in history after a player won a staggering €17,879,645.12 jackpot. The eye-watering prize was won on Microgaming’s Mega Moolah progressive jackpot slot by a British soldier who had just returned from a round of duty in Afghanistan. After the big win, the jackpot reseeded to €1 million and players continued to seek out Mega Moolah slot as one of the many progressive slot games at Microgaming powered casinos.
Due to the popularity of the African jungle themed Mega Moolah slot, the jackpot has been growing steadily over the past few months. This week, the jackpot reached an amazing $6.9 million, and it is understood that the sum will pass the $7 million mark by the weekend. The fast growth rate of Mega Moolah slot’s jackpot is testimony to the fact that this game is so popular among players. The more players who access the game at Microgaming casinos, the more money is put into the progressive jackpot fund and the higher it grows.
Mega Moolah has created uncountable millionaires over the years and it is one of Microgaming’s longest running and highest paying video slot games. The five reel, 25 pay line game has many bonus features, including a wild Lion symbol and a scatter Monkey symbol. The game’s biggest attraction, however, lies in its four progressive jackpots, with the largest – the Mega jackpot – currently creeping to towards the $7 million mark!
