Killer rabbits, knights who say "ni" and shrubbery sacrifices mean anything to you? If so, you're going to love this game.

If not, you might want to read up on your Monty Python history, since some killer bonus games and a sizeable jackpot mean that this title is worth a look for any Australian pokies fanatic.

Fans of Monty Python are going to absolutely love this game but, as we'll see below, there's an assortment of reasons – like plentiful bonus rounds and huge jackpots – for everyone else to give it a try as well.

Reel icons feature old favourites like Sir Robin, Lancelot, Galahad and the Lady of the Lake, and there are all sorts of visual and audio references to the film including jingles, chants of "spam, spam spam!" and, of course, a soundtrack that features Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.

The attention to detail is superb, and everything comes together perfectly in one of the best licensed slots we've ever come across.

Maybe it's just our imagination, but we seemed to keep winning big on this one. Even during standard play we racked up 5 of a kind several times, worth anywhere between two and six times your original bet when you're landing character reel icons.

And we weren't playing for long before we were whisked away to the first bonus game where we won ten times our original bet. Of course, you can't rely on replicating that sort of success every time you play but, for a slot with just 20 paylines, it certainly does feel like you still enjoy plenty of wins.

It's not that 20 paylines is a low number, just that there are other slots out there with many more. Anyway, like we said above, Monty Python's Spamalot Slot definitely doesn't seem to suffer for it.

Now, back to those bonus games. There are four in total, each with differing styles of gameplay, and we suggest that you don't worry about how to get through each one until you trigger it.

Monty Python's Spamalot Slot has 9 pages of instructions (surely a pokies record?) to get through that explain all of the game's quirks. There's no need to study this in advance, as things feel much more straightforward if you just jump in and start playing.

The jackpot is pretty hefty, with 5000x your line bet up for grabs. Given that the maximum bet is 50 AUD per line, that's one heck of a jackpot to play for.

Oh, and there's more. We haven't even mentioned the extra progressive jackpot that starts in the hundreds of thousands of AUD! Granted, you'll need a hefty dose of luck to even unlock the Holy Grail jackpot game and get a chance to play for it, but it's always there.

There's so much going on in Monty Python's Spamalot Slot that you could play for hours and still not run out of things to do. That's a rare statement for an online pokie and, when you add some huge jackpots into the mix, you can see why this one is a fantastic choice.

It probably goes without saying that this slot will appeal the most to fans of the Monty Python films and television series. However, those who never bothered to watch the show shouldn't count out this slot – a multi-stage bonus round as well as a large standard and progressive jackpot to play for means that there's plenty to keep you interested even if all of the references, original reel icons and sound effects go straight over your head. It feels more than possible to rack up some big wins, even during standard play, so this is one game that's easy to spend a few hours playing.
