Super Monopoly Money Pokie Machine
Ever since WMS Gaming started to release online pokies based on the classic Monopoly board game, they have been adding more and more features, with Super Monopoly Money being the newest and probably most complex game of them all. Multiple features like expanding wilds, free spins, bonus cash awards and more can all be triggered in this game that sees familiar playing pieces, Mr Monopoly himself and the Chance, Free Parking, and Community Chest symbols spinning over 5 reels and 25 paylines.
With each new game, the graphics also seem to have improved, and the Super Monopoly Money video pokie looks fantastic. The Eiffel Tower stands behind the reels on the left side, and Big Ben is to the right, while the game title above, and control buttons below, are presented in a nice art Deco style, and many of the symbols have 3D graphics to make them stand out against the backdrop. Also above the reels, there’s a little box, where players collect Monopoly money, which will lead to some of the many bonus features.
The low limit stake needed to get these reels spinning is 0.25, as all lines are permanently active, so there’s no option to test it out with just a small bet on a line or 2, although free Super Monopoly Money video pokie games can be tried at many casinos. The top wager is 105.00 per spin, and standard wins occur with at least 3 matching symbols stopping across a payline in an unbroken line running from the left side.
Playing Super Monopoly Money
The hat, boot, battleship and racing car look just like the playing pieces that fans of Monopoly will recognise from the board game, and these make up the lowest value symbols. A big pot of cash, London taxi and American bus are each worth a little more when stopping across a line, while the dog, a gentleman in a tweed suit, and Mr Monopoly are the highest-value standard symbols.
A Jackpot symbol could lead players to thinking that there’s a progressive jackpot to win, but although it’s a big payout, the amount is simply a multiple of the line bet.
A review of the paytable reveals that the numerous bonuses get triggered in a wide range of symbol combinations, although the wild substitutions are probably going to be the most common feature. The exploding wild will act as any standard symbol, helping to complete lines, or create longer lines for higher payouts, while also being a high-value symbol when filling a line on its own.

Monopoly Money Bonuses
The MM Wild symbol will only turn up on reel 5, to the right side of the game, but when it does, it becomes an expanding wild, filling the reel, and any win in the same spin will be paid out in real cash, as well as Monopoly money, starting to fill the little box above the reels. If there’s no win in that spin, a multiplier of between 10x and 100x the total bet is paid out.
Any Free Parking symbols will reveal a line of 5 of this icon, and players need to click any of them to reveal a symbol that will replace any Free Parking symbols on the reels, with any new combinations then paid out. It can also reveal extra wilds, or the MM Bonus, for more Monopoly money.
The Bonus symbol will trigger a free spins game, with 8, 10 or 15 spins awarded, depending on how many appeared at once. Richer bonus features, such as extra wilds in the Free Parking game will be in play during these spins, along with more Monopoly money payouts. Other ways to get hold of Monopoly money are by randomly receiving houses and hotels on any non-winning spin.
Wheel Bonuses
Clicking the wheel bonus symbol above the reels spins up even more special features, such as the Chance game, which awards multipliers of 5x to 10x, or a respin, depending on which Chance card is picked. If the Community Chest section of the wheel is landed, players pick from 12 cards, revealing multipliers of up to 25x, or even a chance to win all 12 possible card prizes at once.
The Go! Respin symbol offers another spin of the wheel, and a multiplier that can be as much as 200x the triggering bet.
The Verdict
Few online casino pokies have as many bonus features as Super Monopoly Money, and some players could actually be put off by the complexity that others will see as one of the best things about it. Fantastic graphics, a popular theme and the constant triggering of extra rounds should however, be enough to attract many people to this high-quality game.
