Monopoly Big Money Reel Slot
- A new addition to the popular Monopoly slot series
- Lots of features including free spins and multipliers
- Some huge wins available, but with a complicated concept
Monopoly Big Money Reel slot from SG Gaming is yet another addition to the Monopoly series which is hardly surprising due to its popularity. They’ve kept the design here fairly simple, as the main focus is on the gameplay and features which have the potential for some very big payouts with big multipliers and lots of free spins. I’ll come into more detail on these shortly, but for now, all you need to know is to spin the reels to get a winning combination from left to right using the following base symbols, listed in ascending order based on their value:
- Thimble or Shoe of a kind (lowest value)
- Wheelbarrow or Hat of a kind
- Car, Boat or Plane of a kind
- Dog in apartment
- Hotel
- Rich Uncle Pennybags (highest value)
In addition to these base symbols, there’s also a Wild symbol shown as a sparkly M. This substitute for all other symbols in the game apart from Note 20, Note 50, Note 100, Note 200 and Note 500.
Monopoly Big Money Reel Slot Bonuses and Features
Mystery Bills Feature. The notes just mentioned may be added to the reels on any wagered spin. When this happens, all the symbols can either change into 1 of the notes or a mixture of the notes. A full screen of the notes will apply either a 5x, 10, 15x, 20x or 50x multiplier for a full screen of Note 20, Note 50, Note 100, Note 200 or Note 500, respectively.
Monopoly Big Money Reel Spin Bonus. If you get a combination of 5 or more scattered notes of any kind, you will trigger this bonus. Each of the notes will be collected for the note of the same kind on the Monopoly Big Money Reel. For each type of note collected, te associated sections will receive a multiplier of 1+ the number of that respective note collected. All you need to do now is free Spin Reel to determine where you land. This could be on one of the following places:
- Utility Bonus. This will trigger the Utility Bonus and you will be awarded a bankroll to start with. Pick a hand from Rich Uncle Pennybags to get either a spin, collect of collect x2. A spin will give you a go around the Monopoly Big Money Reel, albeit a separate one where you can win either a multiplier or a cash reward. At the end of the spin, you’ll be offered another pick. You can either continue to spin around the board and collect more cash or multipliers, or choose collect to end the bonus and collect your rewards. A collect x2 will multiply your bankroll by 2. The minimum this bonus can award is 5x your total bet, and it will ensure this happens.
- Go Free Spins Bonus. This will trigger the Go Free Spins Bonus where you will be offered 8 free spins to start with. Before each spin on the board, you must pick a Go symbol to reveal a note of values up to 1000. All notes on the reels change into the revealed note for that spin. For every note on the screen, a cash award equal to the value of the note times a bet multiplier is awarded. Additionally, scattered Go Extra Spins will give you extra spins, with 4 also giving you 5x your total bet and 5 giving you 50x your total bet. The number of extra spins awarded can be between 3 and a whopping 50. This bonus is guaranteed to offer you a minimum of 10x your total bet, and the game will increase it to this value if you do not achieve it yourself.
- Cash value. All other places on the board will offer you a cash reward, and the cash values will be multiplier by the bet multiplier.
Conclusion
Monopoly Big Money Reel slot was, to me at least, a bit confusing at first especially compared to some of the other Monopoly slots. The concept of the notes didn’t quite make sense, but having played the game now it’s actually fairly simple and I’m sure most will pick it up easily. The bonuses here are pretty fun, and better yet have the potential to offer some very big rewards. In fact, the Go Free Spins Bonus can really give you a substantial payout with lots of extra free spins and big multipliers. Big Money Reel is certainly an appropriate name here, but I don’t think this game from SG Gaming will be for everyone. It’s definitely quite unusual and might not be to everyone’s taste.
