Juicy Joker Mega Moolah slot review

Microgaming’s high-powered jackpot network sees another installment added to the mix, and Just For The Win has decided to pay homage to the fruit slot genre with Juicy Joker: Mega Moolah. This is certainly a theme that stands out in its clean simplicity, and it’s refreshing to not have to wade through yet another jungle safari.

As always, the regular gameplay is nothing too earth-shaking, but it adds a new flavour to the network, which in turn expands the options players have to choose from. The math model is not all that convincing here though, but the frequently triggered Returning Wild Respins feature keeps you somewhat entertained. The jazzy soundtrack might annoy some players, while others will love it. Cynical jackpot chasers might wanna go with a higher potential alternative, like Isis, instead.

Juicy Joker: Mega Moolah Features

The 3 wilds are very central to the action here, and you will benefit from a regular Wild, a Respins Wild and a Juicy Wild. All wilds will step in for regular pay symbols to help you form winning combos, and they also pay 25x your stake for 5 on a payline.

Landing a single Respin Wild triggers the Returning Wild Respins feature. You will keep getting respins as long as you land at least 1 new wild per spin. All reel positions where a wild has landed will be highlighted by a diamond shaped frame. When you land a spin without any wilds, a final respin is granted, and now all framed positions turn wild.

You trigger the bonus round by landing a scatter symbol on reels 1, 3 and 5 on the same spin. This gives you 10 free spins, and it plays out very similarly to the Returning Wild Respins feature described above. Juicy wilds will land and frame the relevant reel positions, and on the 10th and final spin, all framed positions turn wild. There is no way to retrigger the bonus round.

To trigger the progressive jackpot feature, you need to land 3 joker symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4. You will then be taken to the Jackpot Wheel of Fortune, which you might be familiar with from other Mega Moolah versions. You will either win a consolation prize of 1x, 2x or 3x, or 1 of the 4 progressive jackpots:

• Mega Jackpot starts at £/€1,000,000
• Major Jackpot starts at £/€10,000
• Minor Jackpot starts at £/€100
• Mini Jackpot starts at £/€10

To put things in perspective, here are some relevant Mega Moolah jackpot network statistics:

• Average Mega Jackpot: £4,494,469
• Average Mega Jackpot time: appr. 8 weeks
• Biggest Mega Jackpot win: £16,787,982

Review Summary

Just For The Win has come up with a decently entertaining fruit slot variant of Microgaming’s legendary jackpot slot. Juicy Joker: Mega Moolah comes with colorful visuals and an upbeat soundtrack that keeps your juices flowing. You will trigger the Returning Wild Respins feature quite often here, but don’t expect anything too spectacular from it most of the time.

That goes for the regular gameplay overall, as payouts up to 500x is the most you can win outside of the progressive jackpots. The bonus round is perhaps a bit too similar to the Respins feature, and would have benefitted from multiplier wilds to take things up a notch. Either way, it’s the life-changing jackpot you’re truly after here, and fans of the fruit slots genre now have a nice alternative added to the Mega Moolah pool.

Pros

• Respins with wild frame final spin release
• Bonus round with wild frame final spin release
• 4 progressive jackpots, with the big one seeding at £1M

Cons

• Regular max win is only 500x your stake
• RTP of 92.03 % is higher than the original game, but still a bit low

If you appreciate Juicy Joker: Mega Moolah you should also try:

Mega Moolah - is still the most famous jackpot game you’ll find out there, and it holds the Guinness World Record for highest online jackpot ever. The RTP of 88.12 % makes the chase rather expensive in the long run however, but you can win up to 1,800x outside of the progressive jackpots.

Mega Moolah Isis - is more volatile than the original game, but you can also win up to 10,000x your stake outside of the progressive jackpots here. This makes it a solid alternative for players not only chasing the big dream win, but the 88 % RTP is a tad lower than in the first game.

Absolootly Mad: Mega Moolah - is a feature rich alternative from Triple Edge Studios, and you will benefit from a Rolling Reels Multiplier Trail both in the base game and during the bonus round here. This can lead to up to 15x multiplier boosts in the free spins round, for payouts up to 2,343x your stake.
