Love it or hate it, the Monopoly slot franchise just keeps growing and growing. Admittedly, there hasn’t actually been a new Monopoly-themed slot for over six months now, but a new one is coming to online casinos this week all the same. WMS Gaming and Barcrest seem to have divvied up the task of producing the games together, but the latest slot to debut is WMS Gaming’s take on the famous board game.
About the slot
Known as Monopoly: Big Money Reel, the slot is played over 5 reels and 20 paylines. However, if you were expecting an easy ride here, this is where things get complicated. Instead of being cheap to play, the slot actually costs 0.40 per spin.
WMS Gaming’s Monopoly: Big Money Reel comes with a non-progressive jackpot which is worth around 250x your total bet, but that seems rather petite compared to the jackpots other Monopoly-themed slots are known for. Expect a few added perks to improve your gameplay though.
Bonus features
For starters, players can expect to be able to prosper from stacked dog symbols, which can dole out the wins. There is also a diamond icon which appears as a wild and can help you land those prizes. However, you’ll ideally want to keep your eyes peeled for bank notes. When 5 of those crop up on the reels, a fortune wheel bonus is triggered.In this feature, players can spin a wheel to land prizes worth up to 250x their total bet (as mentioned) or trigger a Utility Bonus or a free game feature. The latter is self-explanatory, but the former is yet another take on the famous board game, albeit with more of an instant-win aspect to it.Monopoly: Big Money Reel goes live this week at all good casinos offering WMS Gaming developed slots.
