Money Train: A journey on the iconic Wild West Express

Money Train

Let’s go back to where it all started with the original Money Train. Launched by Relax Gaming in 2019, this slot caused quite the stir upon its launch, as a high-volatility game with a thrilling bonus round. 

Using the already popular Wild West theme, the slot is played across 5×4 reels set on the carriage of a locomotive. The base game includes a variety of now iconic bandits with players being able to secure wins across 40 paylines. Wilds aid players in forming these wins, substituting all other symbols. 

While the base game is relatively standard, the bonus round is highly innovative and triggered by landing three bonus symbols. The free spins revolve around the Hold & Spin mechanic where players can win multipliers and modifiers including Collectors, Payers, Wideners as well as Persistent Payers and Persistent Collectors. 

Boasting a RTP of 96.20% and a maximum win of 20,000x, the game made quite the splash among players and amassed legions of fans.

Money Train 2

Following the success of the original, Relax Gaming released the first sequel to Money Train featuring the same beloved gameplay with thrilling new additions. The base game remains largely similar, with the addition of a respin feature that is triggered each time two bonus symbols land. 

The game ramps up the excitement with additional features and modifiers in the bonus game. As well as returning mechanics from the original, Money Train 2 adds the Sniper which doubles the value of up to eight symbols, and the Necromancer who revives previously used non-persistent special symbols. Players can also land the Golden Bonus symbol, which add more lucrative multipliers of between 20x to 200x, creating even bigger win potential. 

The first sequel to Money Train, saw an increase in the RTP to 96.40% and a bigger maximum win of up to 50,000x, making it a must try for fans of the original.

Money Train 3

Moving from the Wild West to the wasteland of the future, Money Train 3 switches up the theme with a more cyberpunk aesthetic. With a RTP of 96.1%, The upgraded visuals are echoed by its increased maximum win potential of up to 100,000x. 

In this futuristic version of Money Train new modifiers enhance the bonus round, including  the Persistent Shapeshifter, which transforms into a different special ability with each spin, the Absorber, which collects all visible multipliers and adds them to itself, and the Tommy Gun to boost symbol values. 

With the largest maximum win potential of the whole series, Money Train 3 allows players to conjure up some seriously impressive rewards!

Money Train 4

Money Train 4 marks the final chapter for Relax Gaming’s beloved series with this epic finale being its most explosive one yet. Taking players on its train for one last time, this version sets the scene in a baron, futuristic wasteland where the end of the world is nigh. 

The game takes everything that made the previous installments great and cranks it up a notch with a 6×6 grid and Scatter Pays. New features include Respins which lock in symbols and multipliers while the Money Cart Bonus adds even more thrills with the Persistent Collector and Sniper modifiers. 

With a staggering max win of 150,000x, the game is a standout in the series for thrill seekers, thanks to its new modifiers that keep players on their toes. Its a fresh and explosive release that is full of surprises and although it is the last installment, it cements the series position as a top franchise in the slot world.

Money Train Origins Dream Drop

Relax Gaming have also released a Money Trains version with its Dream Drops progressive jackpot mechanic.

Going back to basics, Money Train Origins Dream Drops takes players on a train ride through the Wild West on the hunt for three jackpot symbols to secure big wins. There are some new additions to the bonus game where players can land The Healer, who revives up to 3 Collectors or Payers, giving them additional activations. Additionally The Banker, reveals a value and adds it to existing symbols as well as any new ones that appear in subsequent spins.

As standard with slot jackpot games, the RTP went down to 94% and the maximum win from the game itself is 10,000x which is a small price to pay for the chance of life-changing wins from the Dream Drops feature.

Money Cart

Made specifically for UK audiences, Relax Gaming unveiled a new edition of the franchise, Money Cart. The game was made to give easier access to the bonus round for UK players without the need for the Bonus Buy feature. 

The new edition takes a familiar theme but transforms the gameplay by featuring no base game wins or paylines. Instead, the 5×4 reels reveal tumbleweeds or purple bonus symbols with players needing three to trigger the iconic free spins round. 

As with the original, Money Cart grants players three spins in the bonus, with the counter resetting each time a money symbol or modifier lands. The game features an impressive RTP of 98% and a maximum win of 2000x. Money Cart saw similar levels of success as the rest of the Money Train series and spawned successful sequels such as Money Cart 2, Money Cart 3 and the Christmas-themed Money Sleigh.
