Monopoly Here & Now
The game is a 20-line, 5-reel slot machine with an option allowing you to choose how many lines you want to bet on. Players can also choose the amount of credits wagered on each line, from 1 to 5. The symbols are based on Monopoly board themes.
The game has a glitzy design and is very entertaining, with a few extra features and chances to increase your winnings.
Getting three property deeds sub-symbols on any winning pay line starts brings up Mr. Monopoly, who pulls out of his hat a random property deed, throws it on the board and the corresponding property earns an upgrade. Although you are not being rewarded immediately, property upgrades do matter when you play Board Bonus round. So treat them as an investment and keep spinning the reels.
Similarly, if you get a Free Parking Jackpot symbols on the last three reels, the value on that symbol is added to the Jackpot Accumulator. There are three jackpots and three coloured symbols, Yellow, Orange, and Red. Depending on which reel the Free Parking symbol appears the corresponding jackpot is increased. Again, when you progress to the Board Bonus you can win all the jackpots you have accumulated.
The Board Bonus round starts when three bonus symbols appear on a payline. In the first stage you select one of three pairs of dice, which determines how many times you get to roll the dice in the bonus round. Then the Monopoly board is displayed, together with any Free Parking Jackpots earned and upgraded properties. Roll the dice and when you land on a property you win the value of the property. If you land on Free Parking gives you the chance to win one of the Free Parking Jackpots, the yellow, orange or red. You can win more than one Free Parking Jackpot!
During the Bonus Rounds you can go to jail! That is if you land on the Go To Jail field. If you are in jail and still have dice rolls remaining you can escape out of jail by rolling doubles.
When you land on Chance or Community Chest, a card is randomly drawn and you can be rewarded with an extra roll or additional credits. However, you can also go to jail if such a card is drawn from the Community Chest.
After you complete all you dice rolls you leave the Board Bonus and take all your winnings. |
