Mobile player nabs Treasure Nile jackpot at Yukon Gold Casino
Last week we saw our first Mega Moolah progressive jackpot winner of 2020 when one lucky player landed an amazing prize of over 16.4 million Canadian Dollars while playing at Jackpot City Casino. However other wins have also been recorded in recent weeks.
Just a few days after the winner on the CA16.4 million Mega Moolah jackpot was confirmed, we have learned that another player using Canadian Dollars as their primary currency has landed a fantastic prize of CA$154,778.92 while playing another popular Microgaming progressive jackpot slot, Treasure Nile.
This latest winner on the Treasure Nile slot amounts to an equivalent of £88,655.99 in British Pounds, which means that the jackpot reset to around the £70k mark on the Treasure Nile slot after the latest win was paid out. At the time of writing the jackpot on the slot has already increased to over £75,000.
While we don't know all the details about this winner on the Treasure Nile slot, we do know a bit about the game and how often it can churn out these big money winners. In this article, we are going to learn a little more about how the game works as well as a little about the casino, Yukon Gold Casino, where this latest big money winner landed their prize.
All you need to know about the Treasure Nile slot
The Treasure Nile slot is one of the more expensive Microgaming progressive jackpot slots to play. In order to qualify for a shot at the progressive jackpot prize, you need to wager the standard bet per line (0.50) on each of the nine pay lines in play on the slot, making for a minimum bet of 4.50 per spin in order to stand any chance of the progressive prize.
However, while that does sound like a large amount of money, one thing to remember is that in terms of paying out big money prizes to customers, few slots can match the consistency that the Treasure Nile slot offers to players when it comes to regular wins.
In 2020 alone, Treasure Nile has seen 9 big money winners earning prizes of over 80,000 or more, and there have been around three other winners of smaller jackpot prizes of around 40,000 or more. In addition, there can be smaller cash prizes of less than this amount awarded on a far more frequent basis.
A quick look back over the history of the game shows that the slot pays out prizes ranging from 40,000 to 150,000 on a very regular basis, with at least a couple of winners, on average each month, Occasionally, the jackpot may also surge beyond the standard up to 200,000 and sometimes even reaching 350,000, with this latter occurrence happening on average once per year.
There are also periods when the game will churn out a higher number of lower cash prize winners in quick succession and it is not unheard of for the Treasure Nile jackpot to be won on several days in succession and even on numerous times on the same day.
The slot itself is a standard 5x3 reel slot that offers up to a 6,000 coin standard jackpot prize. This is achieved when you land the Tutankhamun Death Mask Scatter symbol across all five positions on any of the first eight pay lines (assuming that they are all in play).
Landing the progressive jackpot is a case of playing all nine pay lines and then landing those five Death Mask Scatter symbols on the ninth pay line. This sounds difficult, but as the jackpot record shows, a number of people tend to achieve this every month or so.
Seeded at £40,000, the Treasure Nile slot may not ever really get close to the magical million mark in terms of progressive jackpot prizes, but its regular payouts mean that it is one of the most consistent progressive jackpot games when it comes to rewarding players that is a part of the Microgaming progressive jackpot network.
It also remains one of the most popular slots to play each month.
Yukon Casino Guide and introductory offer
This latest big money win on the Treasure Nile slot came at the Yukon Gold's mobile casino. This popular casino is not available in every location across the globe, but it is available in Canada and given that it is named after a province in the second largest country in the world, that does seem entirely fitting.
As a new customer at Yukon Gold, you can take advantage of a great value introductory offer. Simply deposit CA$10 into your account if you are a Canadian player and for that you will receive 125 Chances to win the Mega Moolah jackpot (125 spins at 0.30 per spin).
Once you have registered at the casino and made your deposit, you will receive your bonus spins shortly thereafter (after you have played through your CA$10 deposit) and it is important to note that these spins are legitimate cash spins, which means every spin could be a winner.
Use your $10 deposit on Mega Moolah too and you would get even more chances to win on this offer.
Don't forget too, that once you have realised the first part of the bonus, you can also claim a second bonus at the casino with your next deposit. This is a 100% Matched Deposit bonus, which if you maximise out with a CA$150 deposit, would see you earn a maximum bonus of CA$150 to play with on site.
As part of the Casino Rewards Network, Yukon Gold Casino is available for both mobile and desktop users and it offers a wide selection of Microgaming games and slots, including the full range of progressive jackpot games (including the Casino Rewards Exclusive slot - Mega Vault Millionaire).

Yet more big winners confirmed in April on Microgaming Progressives
Incredibly, despite this latest big win on a Microgaming progressive, it is not the end of the story. The fantastic Major Millions slot followed suit paying out a prize of 162,176.42 on the 11th April, although details on that win are still very sketchy. This follows on from a payout of over 1.4 million on the 14th March on the same slot. Again details of both these wins are unknown but we do know that at least two lucky players have landed big wins on this slot too.
So when you consider there are four progressive jackpot prize funds with over a million up for grabs on the Microgaming progressive network at present, you would have to be crazy to play your spins anywhere else than at a Casino Rewards Network casino.
Current million-plus jackpot amounts
- Mega Moolah, and Mega Moolah powered Mega Vault Millionaire and Atlantean Treasures - £8.6 million+
- Wheel of Wishes - £2.8 million+
- Major Millions - £1.2 million+

Remember to be in with a chance to win, all you need to do is play a spin at one of the Mega Moolah casinos!
