Massive Jackpot Win: Mega MoolahTM distributes €6.6 million
Games Global's Mega Moolah™ Slot Game Continues to Make Millionaires
The Mega Moolah™ slot game, now under the wing of Games Global (formerly Microgaming), has once again made a player a multimillionaire. The latest winner clinched a staggering €6,689,308 on the original Mega Moolah™ title, adding to the game's legendary reputation.
Mega Moolah™, which debuted in November 2006, is a four-reel, 25-payline slot with a classic safari animal theme. Over its 17-year reign, the game has awarded a total of more than €700,000,000, making it one of the most lucrative progressive jackpot slots in the world.
The game's progressive jackpot network is a significant draw, with thousands of players' bets contributing daily to increasingly large prize pools. Mega Moolah™ offers four different progressive jackpot tiers and a lucrative free spins bonus that triples wins.
In 2015, Mega Moolah™ earned a Guinness World Record for awarding a British player a jackpot of €17,879,645.12 (around £16.2 million). This record was surpassed in 2018 when it paid €18,915,872.81 (over £17 million). The biggest recorded jackpot paid by Mega Moolah™ was approximately $23.3 million in 2023.
Mega Moolah™ was originally developed by Microgaming, a pioneering online casino software provider founded in 1994. Games Global acquired Microgaming in 2022, and the game is now part of a large portfolio from Games Global, which collaborates with over 50 studios worldwide and offers more than 1,300 slots, including progressive jackpots.
The game has been updated for mobile play using modern HTML5 technology, reflecting a mobile-first approach to game design in recent years. On average in 2023, a win was struck every 14 seconds on Games Global's progressive jackpot offerings.
Andy Booth, the Chief Product Officer at Games Global, congratulated the latest Mega Moolah™ winner. This is the first Mega Moolah™ Mega Jackpot win of 2024, and it marks another milestone in the game's long history of creating millionaires.
