Game Overview

Like the movie industry, sequels in the slot gaming vertical can go either way. Some go on to outperform the original, and others disappoint. JDB Gaming is the latest slot developer to release a follow-up to one of its most successful releases with the launch of Moneybags Man 2. The first thing that struck me when comparing the two is the difference between the maximum potential win. On the sequel, it has more than quadrupled from 4,100x to 20,000x the stake. The 5×3 reel format and 243 Ways-to-Win remain the same, but let’s see if we can find any other differences as I play a few spins.

Disappointingly, the base game remains as bare as the original. It is an area I’d hoped to have seen some additional features. Aside from a wild symbol helping to create winning combinations, there is nothing new to look forward to here. That is until you trigger the free spins feature, where you now have 5 free spins configurations to choose from instead of a single default option on the original. You can opt for more free spins with a global multiplier that increases by smaller increments, fewer free spins with more significant multiplier increases, or something in the middle. All-in-all, this gives you low, medium, and high volatility bonus options.

Will Moneybags Man 2 bomb like the Highlander 2 movie or follow in the footsteps of The Godfather in which The Godfather 2 was the more successful? You’ll get a good idea for yourself via the free-to-play Moneybags Man 2 slot demo below.

Moneybags Man 2 Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

The ‘Money’ theme is far from original. Many slots have used this theme to give you a glimpse into how living the high life might look. However, I’m not sure you’ll attain such status by playing Moneybags Man 2. Yet, slots with this theme love selling the life of fast cars, faster women, yachts, jewellery, and mansions. Push Gaming’s Fat Banker slot springs to mind, although that theme is more about the stereotypical greed of bankers, who still seem to get rich with fat bonuses even in a failing market. Another example is arguably one of the best money-themed slots, Piggy Riches Megaways from NetEnt.

So, how do you earn your riches on the Moneybags Man 2 slot game? By landing combinations of the 8 regular symbols shown in the paytable. The Private Jet brings the game’s best payout of 5x the stake for a 5-symbol combo. The Yacht, Sportscar, and Motorbike are the remaining high-value symbols, offering 3.5x, 3x, and 2.4x, respectively. Rounding out the payouts is the Ace with 1.5x, the King offering 1.3x, and the Queen and Jack paying out 1.2x. The Wild symbol can appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5, substituting for all regular paying symbols.

As for the betting spread, the demo version of Moneybags Man 2 lets you bet between €0.60 and €6 per spin. Remember, this could differ from the betting range available on the real money version at your online casino. Also, the min/max bet numbers will change depending on your currency.

The gameplay is set over a 5×3 reel matrix with 243 ways to win. There are no additional modifiers, and the best you can hope for is small wins to keep you ticking over until you trigger the main bonus feature. To form winning combinations, you must land 3 or more matching symbols on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel.

Moneybags Man 2 Slot Bonus Features

When at least one instance of the ‘Vault’ free spins bonus scatter appears on each of the five reels, you trigger the Moneybags Man 2 free spins feature.

Free Spins Feature

When the free spins bonus feature triggers, you’re given 5 options:

  • 12 free spins with a progressive multiplier that increases 1x each spin.
  • 8 free spins with a progressive multiplier that increases 2x each spin.
  • 5 free spins with a progressive multiplier that increases 5x each spin.
  • 3 free spins with a progressive multiplier that increases 12x each spin.
  • 1 free spin with a progressive multiplier that increases 1x each spin.

Each additional triggering free spins bonus symbol will multiply the multiplier by 1x up to a maximum of 3x. So, essentially, if 7 free spins bonus symbols triggered the feature, your options look like this:

  • 12 free spins with a progressive multiplier that increases 3x each spin.
  • 8 free spins with a progressive multiplier that increases 6x each spin.
  • 5 free spins with a progressive multiplier that increases 15x each spin.
  • 3 free spins with a progressive multiplier that increases 36x each spin.
  • 1 free spin with a progressive multiplier that increases 150x each spin.

The free spins feature now plays out and increases the progressive win multiplier by the specified amount for each spin. Landing 5 free spins bonus symbols on any spin during the feature will bring you additional free spins. You receive the same number you chose at the beginning of the bonus round.

Pros

  • Bigger max win compared to the original slot.
  • Choice of 5 free spin configurations.

Cons

  • Dull base game with little improvement on the original.

Moneybags Man 2 Slot Review Final Thoughts

Is Moneybags Man 2 an upgrade on the original? I would say that it is. The improved max win alone is a good enough reason to play the sequel. The free spins feature has seen improvements as well. You can now choose from five different free spin configurations. The original slot title had a similar progressively increasing win multiplier but did not offer a multiple-choice bonus. However, while it's a notable upgrade, better slot games are available for fans of the ways-to-win feature.
