About Atlantean Treasures: Mega Moolah
The slot was created by Neon Valley Studios as an exclusive title for Microgaming. It joined the wider Mega Moolah slot series when it launched worldwide on 25 February 2020.
It was the first Mega Moolah game to take the network underwater. The theme centres on sunken riches and colourful sea creatures.
- Five reels and three rows with ten paylines.
- Expanding wilds that help build winning lines.
- A respins feature.
- Four progressive jackpots, led by the Mega prize.
The jackpot is triggered by a random bonus wheel. Any bet can trigger it, but higher stakes improve your chances of reaching the bigger prizes. Read our guide to how to play Mega Moolah for the full explanation.
The game’s early record
Before the Mega win, the game had already paid out well. By mid-May 2020 it had awarded just over €14.2 million across 238,594 jackpots. Among them were 45 Major jackpots.
That is a lot of wins in under three months. Most were small prizes from the lower tiers, which pay out far more often than the Mega.
