Five New Slot Machines added to the Microgaming Range

Published : 28th of November, 2007

November sees Microgaming up the ante with five top releases – including slots, video poker and pub style games. We kick off on a wintery theme in this feature-rich 5 reel, 20 pay-line video slot SNOW HONEYS.

Set in a snow-capped mountain theme, the game has uber-cool ski resort graphics that are especially appealing, with bronzed ski instructors, Mounties, hibernating bears, snow bunnies.... and some easy-on-the-eye ski-girls showing the way to a generous mix of Free Spins, Scatters, multipliers and a major Ice Castle Bonus feature delivering up to 100 x multipliers.

Players can score up to 30 more Free Spins with a 5x multiplier when the Ski Resort Scatter symbols combine - get five of these adjacent and reap a massive 100x multiplier booster, too! Wrapped around smooth, fast slot action and brilliant audio effects, this game is as thrilling as a dash down the steepest slope and probably a lot more cost-effective!

Bets from as little as 0.01 up to 0.50 can be laid, and wins of up to 20 000.00 in the base game, 100 000.00 on the Free Spins and 10 000.00 on the bonus game are achievable.

Microgaming's popular and growing range of UK pub-style interactive games form the basis for a new version this month, titled THE GEE-GEES - a 3 reel, single payline thriller with the enhanced entertainment value of extra fruit machine features.

Imagine ultra-cool, jump-suited horses disco-dancing - or is that prancing - around town to that Seventies beat; And it's all showcased with quality cartoon graphics that are almost as entertaining as the game itself.

In keeping with the fruit machine tradition, the game offers a more complex, interactive and skill-led game for the many players who enjoy the extra excitement that this type of gambling offers, with nudge and hold functionality on a typical lapper board with Feature and Nudge stacks and a cash pot.

Watch out for the silver disco ball symbols, which on a max bet of 10.00 line-up with a x2000 multiplier to award the 20 000.00 jackpot in the game. Melons could be a welcome sight too - with a multiplier value of x250 a max bet can bring in 2500.00. Other symbols give differing multiplier values, ranging from x1 for Cherries through to x50 for Triple Red 7's.

A truly hot delivery from Microgaming is CURRY IN A HURRY, a sizzling new video slot designed to deliver searing online gambling action and entertainment. The game is comically themed on the Indian cuisine enjoyed by fans around the world and includes a really flaming feature entered by players achieving three or more curry "Scatters" across the 5 reels of this 25 pay-line game.

Once in the bonus feature, the player picks to win from a choice of 5 dishes that are hellish on the relish and chili-graded, with the highest rewards going to the hottest dishes. Paying for the meal is easy - all prizes are multiplied by the triggering bet!

Players can bet up to a maximum per spin of 250.00 in going after the 90 000.00 that can be won in the base game, and the 11 250.00 that can flow from successful bonus selections.

Finally, breaking new ground with its 50 pay-line format and the introduction of a Mixed Pay feature, the new Microgaming video slot GLADIATOR captures the flavour of Imperial Rome through its truly epic proportions, where Wild, up to a hundred Free Spins and Scatter chances aplenty await the player.

The central figure in this absorbing game is the heroic Gladiator himself, with the armour and weapons that have made him so successful. But there's a more sensitive aspect to this tough fighter, and it's one that delivers a new Mixed Pay reward opportunity to players. When the Gladiator and his Roman Maiden combine, it creates a 3x Mixed Pay reward.

Other desirable symbols in Gladiator are the Gold Coin that helps players build winning combinations as the Wild, and the Imperial Roman Eagle which acts as the Scatter - 3, 4 or 5 of these can present the player with the unprecedented advantage of a triumphant 100 Free Spins.

Wagers from a 0.01 to 0.20 are accepted in the game, offering the player the chance to win up to 25 000.00 in the base game, and double that on Free Spins.
