Explore Microgaming gamesMartian Money is Microgaming’s historical three-reel, five-line space slot. This is the classic game with coloured planets, rockets and green Martians, not a different developer’s game sharing the name. The original sister-site screenshot below contains both the reels and their paytable.
Reading the original paytable
The pictured regular three-symbol awards are 80 coins for rockets, 60 for red planets, 40 for yellow planets and ten for purple planets. A mixed set of three planets pays four coins. The Martian substitutes for every symbol, and the screen states that only the highest award is paid per selected line.
A verified return and net-profit example
The screen uses a five-credit coin value with five coins selected, making a total stake of 25 credits. It records a 40-credit return. Subtracting the full stake gives a net profit of 15 credits for that displayed result. Credits are the screen’s units; no particular cash currency is established.
At that denomination, a four-coin mixed-planet award on one line is worth 20 credits. Do not multiply the four-coin value by the entire 25-credit stake: that would incorrectly turn a single-line award into a total-bet multiplier.
Martian awards depend on the numbered line
The right-hand table associates three Martians with different awards. Read its coloured line labels rather than assuming the values increase in line-number order: line one shows 1,000 coins, line two 1,500, line three 2,000, line four 5,000 and line five 2,500. In this captured edition, the largest displayed award belongs to line four.
At five credits per coin, that 5,000-coin line award would be worth 25,000 credits. It is a conditional paytable calculation, not the outcome shown on the reels and not a live progressive balance.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a five-reel video slot?
No. The inspected classic interface has three reels and five numbered paylines.
Does the largest Martian award belong to line five?
Not in the captured paytable. It labels the 5,000-coin award with line four; line five is 2,500 coins.
What does a 40-credit win mean on the displayed bet?
It is a return of 40 credits against a 25-credit stake, leaving 15 credits of net profit.
Why is only one screenshot included?
The sister-site gallery supplies one distinct game screen. It usefully includes the paytable, Wild instruction, reel layout and a completed result.
Are current RTP and stake limits verified here?
No. These historical settings do not establish today’s limits, RTP or availability. Check the exact offered game rather than another release with the same name.
