Another generously proportioned Progressive Slot amongst the Wagerworks' roster of games, Rags To Riches does its stuff in simple 3-reel and more fancy 5-reel, multiline formats. With a headline prize that builds from £100,000, this Progressive makes its case with a seriously attractive Jackpot to start with.

Even if you find falling off a log tricky, we think you'll find the 3-reel Rags To Riches game pretty easy to play. Without 'scatter' or 'wild' features to get your head around, and just a single payline to focus on, it's a perfect machine for anyone very new to online Slots and looking for a nice, simple machine to try their luck with. Playing the Max Bet of three coins (a total £3 stake) on a spin and getting three 'Rags To Riches' symbols on the payline, triggers the Bonus Round and the chance to claim the Progressive Jackpot. The Bonus Wheel, sitting above the reels, is brought into play, and the player has one spin to decide the prize they'll win. The Wheel is marked with a number of prize values, but if the pointer ends up on 'Jackpot' after the wheel settles, then that big ole Progressive is in the bank!

For a little more complexity, Rags to Riches 5-reel builds on the 3-reel's appeal, adding 'wild' and 'scatter' features to create more variation in the combinations that will pay out across its twenty paylines. Better yet, the Bonus Game step to its Jackpot has had a serious makeover, replacing the 3-reeler's single-spin Bonus Wheel in favour of a multi-level, video game journey from the gutter to the stars! From the starting point of sleeping on a park bench, and ending with a luxurious yacht lifestyle, the onscreen character's journey through each of the three levels has six steps. At each step a number between 1 and 49 is displayed after which the player must guess whether the next step's number will be higher or lower. Achieving five correct guesses out of six will advance the player to the next level and ever closer to the Progressive Jackpot. Even if a player fails to make it to the ultimate prize, a consolation bonus is won for each successful step made in the journey, which can still stuff some serious cash into their player account!

Progressive hunters should be more than pleased with what Rags to Riches has to offer, and we think its 5-reel format deserves a special mention - and praise - for its imaginative Bonus game. We didn't get our virtual vagrant far from his digital down-and-out lifestyle, but we enjoyed trying...
