Playtech has created Take $5 Million as a luxury themed title, a slot machine with expensive things among its symbols, with private chefs, butlers, bars of gold, private jets and all those other things that you could want from a slot machine with this theme. It’s not an uncommon theme, far from it, so I imagine there is a lot of interest for this topic and for the symbols which are used in these games.
This game will give you on its 20 lines wild and scatter symbols, access to bonus games and to free spins, plus prizes that could go as high as $500,000.
Features of Take $5 Million
The list of features in Take $5 Million starts with the wild Dog that awards the top jackpot, continues with the scatter represented by a Rich Girl, the free spins which it offers, and then goes to the bars of gold which are triggers for the bonus game.
A small lap dog, wearing a dollar sign gold necklace around his neck, is the one that the game decided to use in the role of the wild feature. While its use as a wild makes it important, since it brings you more wins as you keep playing, the substitution ability isn’t as important as the power it has to award the biggest prizes of the game. Up to 50,000x can be won through this symbol, when it forms its combo. As a substitute it will only help out with regular symbols, not with scatters or bonuses.
Free Games Feature
The Rich Girl is a blonde with gold jewelry in the form of rings, bracelets and necklaces. It’s a scatter symbol, so naturally it’s less important where the symbol appears, and more about the total number of times it does it. 3 or more scatters will be needed on the reels, to trigger the 10 free spins of this game. You can also retrigger free spins, with 3+ additional Rich Girl scatters.
Bonus Game
The slot has a bonus game as well, a feature that is not as common as the free spins, but it’s always nice to see what the game offers inside. You need between three and five bonus symbols on a payline that is active, forming a combo. The bonus symbols are the ones with the gold bars on them.
Betting options and jackpots
A bet placed in this slot will cover as many of the 20 lines as you want, with up to 20 coins being selected. Each line bet starts at $0.01, and can go up to $10. You spend a maximum of $200 per spin.
It offers a very good top prize, being extremely rare to see a game give away a jackpot worth 50,000 times the line bet. In this case, it would mean up to $500,000 cash.
Design and symbols
The game tells the story of a rich girl, which lives the kind of life many of us want for ourselves. It does seem a bit much here though, with butlers, maids, chefs and chauffeurs among those that serve the girl. Add a small lap dog to the mix, the mansion, private jet and the other symbols of status, and you get an almost obnoxiously rich main character. The design style is not a favorite of mine, I’ve seen much better luxury themed titles, mostly from other developers.
Symbols: Lap Dog (50,000 coins, wild), Gold Bars (bonus), Rich Girl (scatter), Butler (10,000 coins), Maid (2,500 coins), Chef (150 coins), Chauffeur (100 coins), Mansion (50 coins), Private Jet (20 coins), Yacht (15 coins) and Car (10 coins).
Is It Worth Playing?
Despite the rather unimpressive design, the game does well with every feature it gives you, and especially with the 50,000x jackpot, which is not something you’re going to see again too soon.
This Take $5 Million slot is offered by all online casinos with Playtech software, playable either in practice or in real money mode.
