money train 3 slot theme, stakes, pays & symbols

The Wild West is a favourite of online slots developers, possibly even before NetEnt’s smash-hit success in Dead or Alive. And why not? It’s been a classic setting for movies and television shows for decades, possibly because it’s a classic story about regular people taking risks and changing their lives in the pursuit of something better. Of course, there’s always an adventure, misfortune, luck, and despair along the way, but that isn’t what games such as Money Train 3 video slot are all about! No, these machines are laser-focused on setting players up to take home a monster of a win every now and again while also ensuring they don’t feel too disappointed after every other session… it’s the same mission every game has, but here it’s done with a near-perfect balance and player impact, which place it on an altogether different level.

There isn’t much to separate this game from its predecessor, Money Train 2, so far – sure, the RTP has been boosted by 0.1%, whilst the steampunk styling feels somewhat more futuristic this time around, but it’s still very much the same game so far. It’s a familiar story on the paytable, too; it seems; the red older guy will award you 20x your bet for a full pay line of five-of-a-kind, followed by the orange man at 10x, the green masked dude at 9x, then the token pretty female with a return of 8x for all five of her symbols. The wild pays the same as the highest-paying regular symbol at 20x for a completed pay line, and although the paytable does not mention it, I suspect there is no additional reward when hitting more than three scatters, either. These things could be a big deal in some slots, but it doesn’t even warrant a mention in 95% of Money Train video slot reviews!

The available wagers in the demo version of this game range between €0.10 and €10.00 per spin, but I suspect there could be bigger bets available when playing for real money. If not, this should still be enough to suit most players.

base game & modifiers

The setup will be instantly familiar to fans of the previous instalments of this series – a 5x4 playfield is used, but rather than five reels of four symbols each, the Money Train 3 slot game opts for 20 individual positions instead.

This arrangement means it is possible to hit a full screen of any symbol – although it would be an amazing stroke of luck to do so! You are much more likely to hit large numbers of matching symbols with a few gaps here and there – think of it as every symbol appears in tall stacks, and the result would be the same.

money train 3 slot bonus features

The money cart has become something of a legend in the online slot circuit ever since the release of the original Money Train game several years ago. All of the triggering scatter symbols will change to reveal a number that represents a multiple of the current stake and award three free spins.

During the money cart feature, any columns that become filled with symbols will spawn an additional column on its right, creating extra space for more prizes and features. This can occur twice in any feature, so there can potentially be up to 7x4 positions on the screen for a total of 28 slots. Several familiar prizes can also fill the slots:

• Collector: Gathers all visible prizes from the screen and adds them to its value.

• Sniper: Doubles the value of between three and eight existing symbols. It can also act on one symbol several times.

• Collector/Payer: Selects three to five targets, adds their values to its own, and then pays out its updated value to the previous targets.

• Necromancer: Brings two to seven already used bonus symbols back to life, such as Snipers.

• Absorber: Absorbs the value of all normal bonus symbols before removing them from the reels to create extra slots for new prizes.

• Tommy Gun Sniper: Targets one random symbol, randomly doubling its value from two to six times.

• Tommy Gun Payer: Awards a value between 5x and 100x the bet before targeting a random symbol to add its value up to 10 times in a row!

All of these symbols can also appear as a persistent version that will activate after every remaining spin in the current feature instead of just once.
