Have you ever watched “The Million Pound Drop Live”,  “Million Dollar Money Drop” or any of international versions of this popular TV show? We will remind you that in the original British version of the show contestants are given one million pounds in £50 notes at the start of the show, banded in 40 bundles of £25,000. They must then answer eight questions in an effort to keep as much of their money as possible. Sounds familiar? Of course! This show is highly popular around the world, so you have probably at least heard of it.  What about playing a game based on this exciting TV show? Sounds like fun, doesn’t it?

“The Money Drop” is a 5-reel, 20-payline slot from Playtech inspired by a popular TV show. The reels are filled with cash bundles, Wilds, gold pass cards, and J, Q, K, A icons. In terms of graphics, this game won’t impress you, as the designers of this slot didn’t spend much time perfecting the graphics nor did they bother to create any nice animations either.

The design of this game is really simple, but don’t let this discourage you from playing this game, since it offers a variety of innovative special features that will provide you with huge wins!

First of all, there is a Golden Wild Scatter symbol, which can appear on the third reel and when this happens, it will initiate the so called Expanding Wilds feature. However, Wilds won’t expand vertically, as in other games. Instead the Golden Wild Scatter symbol will turn 4 random symbols on the reels Wild and it will also become a regular Wild, giving you a total of 5 Wilds on the reels. The Wild symbol will of course substitute for all symbols on the reels except for Scatters, giving you more chances to hit winning combinations.

There are two Scatters in this game, both of which trigger additional special features. The first one in shape of a golden pass card will trigger the Security Pass Bonus if at least 3 such symbols appear anywhere on reels 2, 3 and 4. You will have to click on the falling cash bundles to collect Free Spins and multipliers. In your Free Spins mode, Scatter combinations will pay double and you will be able to retrigger the feature (but you will win a fixed number of 12 Free Spins). The good news is that during this feature you will still be able to catch Golden Wild Scatter symbols.

The second Scatter in shape of game logo will appear on reels 1, 3 and 5 and if 3 such symbols are hit, they will trigger the Drop Bonus. Your aim will be to keep as much cash as you can through 8 rounds of the Money Drop. If you have watched the TV series, you will probably guess, that at the begging of each round you will be given a top prize cash amount to play the game with. You will have to place your cash on the trap doors in each round and you will bank any cash that doesn’t fall when the trap doors open. You will always have to leave one trap door empty and only one trap door won’t open, so chose carefully! At the end of this gripping feature you will earn cash for the number of rounds you survive. 

All in all, this slot is as entertaining as the TV show it is based on. Maybe you won’t win millions here, but we promise that your prizes will be more than satisfying! So what are you waiting for? Give this slot a go today!
