Jungle Mega Moolah

Occasionally, in the world of iGaming, some slot releases become well-accepted by the target audience, gaining a cult status of sort among the players.

Jungle Mega Moolah, a charming jungle-themed game is one such video slot that has become very well-known and beloved by many, in particular, due to its progressive jackpot mechanic.

The original title was made by iGaming software developer Microgaming, however, the newest version of this title has been developed in partnership with the Kindred Group, being exclusive to it, and built by Aurum Signature Studios to deliver a new old yet familiar slot title.

Theme

For those who are not as of yet familiar with this game, the slot in question brings you to the jungle, with a beautifully designed green backdrop and a transparent 5x3 slot machine that spins many wild animals.

During the extra spins, the background changes to the night-time, as the fireflies twinkle deep in the forest.

The dashboard is well-designed in its minimalistic approach, with the simple white spin button standing front and center, an option to opt for quicker spins or auto spins situated on the left, and a bet size toggle button is on the right side.

When it comes to the sound, until the reels are spun, the only thing that can be heard are the sounds of the wildlife. As the leopards, chimpanzees, slow loris', bears, and parrots spin the music is a fitting mix of jungle themes and classic slot machine notes.

Betting Options and Functions

The betting range goes from 0.25 to 6.25 on 25 active paylines.

The five Royals are the least paying symbols, with each of the wild animal having their respective value, going in the order from frog over, the parrot, slow loris', the leopard, the bear, to the chimpanzee, which is also a Scatter.

The return-to-player is not stated as of now with this version of the game, although the original title stood at the value of 88.12%.

The same goes for the volatility, although it is expected to keep the medium variance.

Features

As for the features, the aforementioned chimpanzee is a Scatter symbol that multiplies the bet by a hefty number, when 2, 3, 4, or 5 land on the reels. Of course, three or more such Scatters will trigger the extra spins feature of 15 such spins with the x3 multiplier.

The most paying symbol in the game, that also rewards when 2, 3, 4, or 5 appear in the Jungle Mega Moolah icon that is also a Wild which substitutes for any other symbol in the game, except for the Scatter. When replacing another symbol, the Wild doubles the win.

Last, but certainly not least, the jackpot bonus comes in form of the wheel of luck, and four such bonuses may come the player's way, called Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega.

Our Take

There is a reason why some video slots become as popular as it is the case with the Jungle Mega Moolah.

Immensely entertaining, and potentially highly rewarding, it is a pleasure to see it published once again, new, but still the same in every aspect that has made it so beloved from the first moment it hit the market.
