April 29, 2010 (CAP PR Wire) — Microgaming (www.microgaming.com), the world’s largest provider of online gaming software, today launches three new Bingo Side Games to its network of operators. A winning combination of casino and pub-style fruit machine games, Microgaming’s refreshed outer-screen content provides players on its operator platforms with the essential holistic gaming experience.
WASABI SAN is an entertaining 15 payline, multiple coin game with a humorous Japanese sushi theme. This game has an exciting combination of game functionality, including a second screen Bonus Game and a Free Spins feature.
With its delectable imagery and rewards, winning has never looked and tasted so good. Operators will be sure to see their players hungry for more.
SUPE IT UP is a 25 payline, multiple coin video slot with a slick hotrod theme and a Free Spins feature that will leave players wheeling for more. There are 41 winning combinations and, with the help of a Wild, winning combinations are doubled.
FRUIT BINGO is a new style game from Microgaming that incorporates a bingo aspect to a regular Pub Slot. The game is a much simpler type of pub slot offering straightforward side game action, making this the pick of the bunch, whatever a player’s level of experience.
Fruit Bingo operates from reel bands containing five symbols and a special feature entry symbol. Getting three feature entry symbols activates the bonus game, where five different win amounts on the pay table are paid out when three of a kind appear on the win line.
Neill Whyte, Head of Bingo at Microgaming said: “Side Games are proving a vital component in enhancing the Bingo playing community’s gaming experience. With Side Game popularity at an all time high, Microgaming is constantly striving to provide players with better content, better value, ever more chances to win, and a better all-round entertainment experience.
“Our innovative approach to bingo operations means that we not only provide the best in side betting action, but also the best in market software capability such as fully customisable skins, superior usability, sustained liquidity; all delivered to the market at an unrivalled speed.”
