First game- Mega Moolah

Ok, here we go. It is time for the first game and I've decided to start with my own favorite here at Videoslots.com, Mega Moolah. With a constantly growing jackpot, which is always at least one million Euro, I just have to play this game every once in a while.

When I start the game this time, the jackpot is at €1,535,586, and growing. Imagine to hit that one. "Suddenly, it happens" as a competitor to us say. I have to give them cred for that one, it is a good slogan.

Since I decided to run "One game a day", the management at Video Slots has given me a daily budget of €10 (wasn’t that nice). I will play for 30 minutes each time, unless the money runs out before that of course, and as I am an optimist, I hope to build a big bankroll in the coming year. I'll show them!

Ok, the game is running. Since I've been playing Mega Moolah a lot I know what I want to hit. Lions are good, they are wild and replaces any other symbol in a winning row (except the Free Spins-symbol). I think they also double any wins but I am not entirely sure. Well that's right, just checked the pay table. Also, if you hit two or more in a row from the left, they pay well.

My €10 gives me 1000 coins in the Mega Moolah. Since you can play up to 25 rows and 5 coins per spin, the max bet is 125 coins. I do not want to risk my first seating to be three minutes long, so I choose to bet all 25 lines, but only one coin. This means 25 coins per spin, which will give me a lot of play for only €10. Also, with a chance to win of course.

As usual I win often. That is probably what makes me like Mega Moolah, many small winnings hitting almost all the time. I am also aware that I need to hit something big soon, otherwise it is a risk that today's game is over soon. 18 minutes played now and after being down to 324 coins, I am now back up to 500 again. Still alive.

The favorite in this game, besides the giant jackpot of course, are the Free Spins. You’ll always leave the Free Spins-area with some nice money. To start the Free Spins you’ll need to receive at least three symbols with the character who has a purple face and red hair (do not know what it is supposed to look like, a medicine man or something maybe). In the Free Spins mode all wins are tripled and you sit quietly back during 15 spins as they spin automatically.

Got it! FOUR purple guys, it is actually the first time I get four in a row. Usually, I only hit three of them. Just the four guys gives me 500 coins, and that’s before the Free Spins had even started. The Free Spins runs nicely and I exit with a total profit of 1214 coins in Free Spins mode. 26 minutes have passed and I now have 1679 coins, more than I started with!

33 minutes, oops overtime. Lost a bit after the Free Spins, but ended this first “One game a day” session with a bank roll of €13.31. Did not get to spin on the progressive-wheel but I am hoping for better luck next time. The chance to get there is increasing with the bet size, and with today’s one-coin-strategy, the chances were low. But it happens. He who won a record pot a couple of years ago invested one coin and won a little over €6 million in the Mega Moolah. Poor guy.

New game tomorrow, with a bank roll of €13.31!

Play well and good luck
