We love nothing more than to write about someone winning millions. About the only thing that would beat it is if we were the ones on the winning side.
Still, no place for bitterness here. Let’s rejoice in the fact that on the 8th of May 2020, one lucky casino player won a seven-figure sum that means their lives will never be the same again.
Mostly because this is the second multi-million story we’ve written this week, with Empire Fortune paying out 4.2 million on the 14th of May.
So you know what? We’re in a happy mood and hoping to hit the hat trick of big casino win stories before the end of May. Because there’s nothing better than good news.
It wasn’t the original Mega Moolah slot that did it
Normally when we start writing a big Mega Moolah win, there’s only one game that is to blame. The first and original Mega Moolah slot game sent you to the heart of the Savannah.
It’s the game that has, over the decades, paid out nearly €1.1 billion since its inception. With 25 payline and 5 reels, you’ll be spinning cartoony lions, meerkats, and baboon to catch free spins and the jackpot.
But it looks like someone else is going to take the crown, and it’s not the one that you’d assume.
We love surprises. After all, it’s nice to be able to write about other progressive jackpots slots for once.
Atlantean Treasures Mega Moolah slot hits the jackpot!
The Mega Moolah Atlantean Treasures slot was released by the Microgaming casino software, under their Neon Valley Studios brand.
It came out in February 2020 and has been making literal waves under the ocean and within the online casinos themselves. Mostly by being a damn good game – we gave it a 5-star slot review and not just because of those millions.
The five-by-three reel, ten-payline slot hides an abundance of sunken riches within. It’s a beautiful underwater game with captivating and colourful characters, including the beautiful mermaid princess.
But the theme is only part of the review. It got the bulk of its stars because of its wealth of features. You’ve got expanding wilds and respins, and some extraordinary wins.

It’s paid out €14.2 million across 238,594 jackpots
Wait – didn’t you say it was 7.7 million? That’s right.
On the 8th of May, Atlantean Treasures triggered it’s first Mega Moolah jackpot since it launched and paid a huge €7,784,425.63.
But it wasn’t just sleeping between February and May, with 45 major jackpots triggering and building up the amount it’s been paying out to casino players worldwide.
The winner gets the whole amount in one lump sum
As per Microgaming jackpot rules, the lucky b*stard who walked away with €7.7 million will walk away with the whole sum.
We don’t know who you are. We don’t even know if you are European.
Each win on the network is communicated in EUR using a standard currency conversion rate applied on the day of the win.
So for all we know, this could have been won in Toronto, Stockholm, or Cape Town. Because if you’d just won 7.7. million, you’d keep your address to yourself until you figure out how to spend it.

Where can I play the Mega Moolah Jackpot slots?
Oh yes, siree, there are more than one, more than two, in fact, we now have three jackpots Mega Moolah games we can play on whenever we want.
Because only this month the Absolootly Mad Mega Moolah slot came out, and it gives you the same big jackpots, the same big thrills, but with enough madness to make you want a galloon of tea.
And we hear along the grapevine that it won’t be the last:
Jean-Luc Ferriere, Chief Commercial Officer at Microgaming, comments: “Congratulations to the winning player…The tremendous €7.7 million win marks another milestone for Microgaming’s progressive jackpot network, and we look forward to further enhancing our growing portfolio with additional progressive games!”
So that’s something to look forward to later on in the year.
See? We told you we had good news, and not just for the lucky B*tch who won 7.7. million.
Ok fine, we are a little bit bitter. But that’s ok, we know where to go to feel warm and cosy.
Grand Mondial casino owns the Mega Moolah jackpots
Not literally. But considering that a huge slice of those jackpots seems to hit at Grand Mondial casinos or its sister gambling sites (including this huge 7.7 million), you know there’s only one place to go.
Grand Mondial casino only gives you Microgaming slots, from the classic to all the newcomers from their exclusive studios, including the Fortune Factory Village People slot and the beautiful return of Agent Jane Blonde 2 slot by Stormcraft.
But, if that wasn’t enough, you get spins on the Mega Moolah slot as part of your welcome jackpot AND they have an exclusive 4th Mega Moolah game that you’ll only find at their casino.
You know where you need to go.
