About this game
What Is Money Train 3 — The Slot That Redefined Bonus Rounds
Money Train 3 is the third instalment of Relax Gaming’s most famous slot series, released in 2022. It features a 5×4 grid with 40 fixed paylines, but the base game is merely a gateway to the Money Cart bonus round — where the real game happens.
During the Money Cart round, the grid transforms into a re-spin table where over eight types of special symbols interact. Collector, Persistent Collector, Sniper, Necromancer, Collector-Payer, Persistent Shapeshifter, Arms Dealer, and Reset Plus all work together in combinations that can push payouts toward the 100,000x max win ceiling.
RTP: 96.10%. Volatility: Very High. Max Win: 100,000x.
Money Cart Bonus — How Every Special Symbol Works
The bonus activates with 3+ Bonus symbols. You start with 3 spins. Every new symbol resets the counter to 3. The round ends when spins run out or the 20-position grid fills.
Persistent Collector: Accumulates values from all symbols every round — the most powerful symbol in the game.
Collector: Collects all current values once. Only works for the round it lands.
Sniper: Doubles the value of 1-3 symbols. Can target the same symbol multiple times.
Collector-Payer: Collects all values, then distributes the total across every symbol on the grid.
Necromancer: Revives expired special symbols, extending the bonus round.
Persistent Shapeshifter: Transforms into a random special symbol each round.
Arms Dealer: Converts regular symbols into special ones.
Reset Plus: Increases the starting spin counter from 3 to 4.
The best rounds typically start with an early Persistent Collector and benefit from Necromancer revivals. A full 20-position grid awards a bonus 500x payout.
Bonus Buy — Direct Entry to the Action
Money Train 3 offers two Bonus Buy options:
- Standard (100x bet): Enter the Money Cart round immediately.
- Persistent Feature: Start the round with a Persistent Collector already locked on the grid (higher cost).
Bonus Buy suits players who do not want to wait for Scatters in the base game. However, at 100x cost, the bonus round must pay more than that to be profitable — which is not guaranteed.
Money Train 3 vs Other Instalments
Money Train 2 has simpler bonus mechanics (fewer symbols) and higher RTP (96.40%). Money Train 4 pushes the max win ceiling further to 150,000x with even more symbols. Money Train 3 sits in the sweet spot — complex enough to be exciting, not yet overwhelming.
How to Approach the Demo
Use the free SlotLab demo to focus on one thing: how special symbols chain together. Play 50-100 base game spins to gauge Bonus frequency, then buy the bonus a few times (if available in the demo) to study the interactions without the wait.
