The Money

All online slots are essentially about money, but ThunderSpin takes it to the next level in The Money. This slot offers free spins with up to 7x win multipliers and the highest RTP of any AGames slot.

Theme

Of all places, The Money is set in what appears to be a small European town at sunset. Five reels appear against a red, velvet background reminiscent of a casino table game top.

Gaming symbols include wallets full of cash, stacks of bills, flush purses, sacks of coins, and the playing card symbols ace through jack, which act as lower-value symbols. A mustachioed man acts as wild, while a golden dollar sign acts as scatter.

Somewhat eerily, there is no soundtrack, though sound effects to accompany gameplay. Wins are punctuated by a massive rain of gold coins.

Betting Options and Functions

AGames is a subsidiary of the Malta-based company BOSS., which offers complete casino packages to its clients. Though not a fully independent designer, however, AGames delivers consistently excellent games on par with anything coming out of industry giants such as Microgaming or NetEnt.

As is key for any practitioner of sound monetary policy, AGames has brought their considerable attention to detail to bear in planning this game’s fine points. There are 20 fixed paylines, each paying from left to right. Bet level can be set from 1–10 with a coin value adjustable from 0.01–1.00 for an overall per-spin bet range of 0.20–200.00 times the betting currency.

Autoplay is available for up to 500 spins, with optional win and loss limits if the feature is engaged through the settings menu, which also allows players to adjust sound and image options, as well as quickspin. The overall theoretical return to player ratio is above-average at 96.22%.

Features

The ThunderSpin design team has put together a handsome bonus feature for The Money. The golden dollar scatter symbol opens the way to this feature; when three or more appear on the reels, either 15, 20, or 25 free spins will be awarded. Bonus play begins with a double win multiplier.

Once the feature begins, players’ goal is to assemble a massive, golden key. A key bonus symbol is added to the reels – each time it appears, 5 additional free spins are added to the total, and win multiplier increases by one.

Should players successfully assemble the Big Key and reach the maximum win multiplier of 7x, a payout of 25 times the bet is awarded… after that point, additional key symbols will add more free spins, but not increase the multiplier.

Our Take

The Money is AGames’ strongest slot yet – from the perspective of bonuses and RTP, no other offering from this developer comes close. Players seeking similar games should explore Gold Sea, which has a similar structure, only slightly lower RTP, and an underwater theme.
