New Wagerworks "Mega Jackpots" - "Cluedo"

Getminted have launched the new Wagerworks "Mega Jackpots" games, including the new version of "Cluedo"...

Anyone who's played the brilliant "Cleopatra" will be familiar with this game, as it's exactly the same! This is very good news, as the boring feature you previously found on the "Cluedo" slot has been replaced with the good old fifteen free spins for three scatters anywhere! Wahoo! It is a bit misleading the way the feature advertises "Win up to 180 free spins with the Mystery Bonus Feature" -- as this just means you can have up to 180 if you hit the re-triggers, but it's great nonetheless.

The line layout is identical to Cleopatra too, meaning you can get some of those nice double-up multi line wins!

Add to that the potential for a MEGA jackpot if the "Mega Jackpot" wild symbols line up across the centre line - and you're onto a winner!

This could very quickly become my favourite online slot bar none.

Incidentally, they've also launched a "Mega Jackpots" version of "Monopoly Pass Go"... I had a quick spin on this with a reasonable return, but I'm not a massive fan of the feature anyhow. A nice addition is the "Win Spin" feature however where it awards you between 1 and 5 "free spins" - each one continuing to spin until you hit a win...Very Las Vegas! This invariably means about 45 coins each spin, but you never know...

All in all, Wagerworks are taking more strides to becoming the the best online software platform, with their faithful Las Vegas reproductions and solid licencees with excellent automated payment mechanisms... and that's before "ELVIS" arrives!! Add autoplay functionality and a "Playcheck" style management suite and they'll take over the world!

Good move putting the free spins in. I'll play it now - it got dead boring after a while as it was.

Totally agree... It plays identically to "Cleopatra" - only it's got the 'speed up' reels thing when you hit two scatters... Like the way the jackpot symbol is also the wild for double heart stoppers/fun! Not really hit anything massive on it as yet, but had some fun!

I played those two for free for awhile and got really bored with the bonuses, I'm glad they spiced them up for real players, I suppose since it's a megajackpot game you can't play that version for free. Eh well, saving up my pennies for $1 MS WOF jackpot of 11 million in January.

Yeah, they were a bit grim in their normal modes - definitely spiced them up a bit. You're absolutely right in that you can't play in free mode; same as most progressives... Boooooo!

Here's hoping you hit that WOF 11 million

Only problem is WW seems to be really really slow since they updated the software. Almost unplayable for me.

Also just noticed that the jackpot is paid in 19 annual installments. Not impressed with this - crypto and MG pay their progressives as a lump sum!

In the States lotteries pay like that... or you can take x% of the top for taxes and then something like 1/3 of what's left as a lump sum payment. arghhh.

They're almost offering nothing at 5% of the jackpot per year with no interest. What a scam. Or at least risking nothing if they are savvy enough to get 5% return on what should have been paid out in one lump sum. Sure the next year they have less to invest, but they keep rollling in the progressive house edge in the meantime.
That's not gambling, that's lottery imo.

I think it's a mistake, or an oversight for the UK market anyways - splitting these jackpots over 20 years. You may be used to such type of payments in America - but in the UK it's completely non-existent & unheard of....bar newspaper promotions offering a free-to-enter prize of '£50,000 a year for life' - which is what this should be called. So, whilst I was excited by it initially - I won't be playing much as these annual lump sums, or 33% deducted upfront payments, just don't appeal as something to bet for, pretending to be something it isn't...this isn't what the UK market have had to put up with.

Seems like a very big mistake to me. WW is generally a UK-Facing software provider, but seems to be the only one that will pay in installments. If I was a progressive slot player (i'm not btw) then i'd definately not choose to play this one! I'd go for Mega Moolah or Millionnaires Club, which both pay the entire jackpot as a lump sum.

I like Wagerworks in general, their games are designed well and I play at their casinos often, but this slot seems like a bit of a ripoff.

I kind of agree... It might be a bit of a let down if you did hit it and weren't aware of the rules! The point however is that this is a really good, top fun slot - the progressive is just a bonus! Besides, I'll take the excitement of the reel wins, without holding out tooooo much hope for the 1 in 4 million chance of hitting the big one - however long they decide to pay it over
