June 3, 2010 (CAP PR Wire) — Microgaming (www.microgaming.com), the world’s largest provider of online gaming software, unveils two exciting new feature-rich slots this month, along with the latest edition to its Gold Series of Games.
SOCCER SAFARI, is a new five reel, 30 payline video slot that brings together a summer of soccer with some of South Africa’s most famous wildlife. The game offers the player: bonuses, Free Spins, two different styles of Scatters, Multipliers and a number of games within the game; all accessed through a betting range that runs from as little as 0.01, to a maximum bet of 120.00.
There is a magnificent menagerie waiting to signpost the road to riches and players should look out for three or more Trophy Scatter symbols that will trigger the ‘Go for Goal’ Bonus feature. The crazy Wild Zebra referee can deliver a 1x Multiplier, along with a retriggering Free Spins feature. In addition, there is the Soccer Safari symbol itself, which substitutes for other icons, aiding the player to build rewarding combinations.
Soccer Safari offers big money opportunities, with almost 25,000.00 achievable in the base game, more than twice that on Free Spins, and up to 12,000.00 with bonuses. This slot offers players a Gamble feature, where predicting the colour and suite of the next card can double or quadruple winnings.
VOILA, the second slot game offering for June whisks players away from the delights of South Africa to the romantic streets of Paris. This beautifully presented five reel game offers the popular 243 ways to win format, backed by stunning, realistic graphics.
Players should look out for the iconic Eiffel Tower symbol across the reels, as this randomly awards 2x, 3x and even 4x Wild Multipliers when completing a win, and substitutes for all other symbols except the Euro-rich bonus logo. Three or more of the bonus logos will be another welcome sight, delivering 20 Free Spins in which all wins are doubled and up to 60 000 coins can be added to players’ accounts.
The game also features the ever popular Gamble feature, where players can double or quadruple their winnings by correctly guessing the colour and suit of the next card to appear. With wins of up to 40,000.00 in the base game and double that in Free Spins, players will be able to fork out for their own trip to the city of light. Voila!
HIGH SPEED POKER from Microgaming combines lightning fast poker action with the full functionality, ambient sound effects and superb presentation players have come to expect from its prestigious Gold Series of casino table games. These outstanding features capture the sophistication and elegance of a top poker room, offering players a memorable game experience, where skill and good fortune can bring substantial rewards.
High Speed Poker is a multi-hand table game against the dealer, that takes the interesting and fast paced game of single hand three Card Poker and enhances it, by allowing the gambler to play with a maximum of five hands of cards. The player can face off against the dealer by staking the Ante bet, Play bet, and an optional Bonus bet, which pays out accordingly for three of a Kind, three Cards Same Suit, three Cards Same Colour; independent of the dealer’s hand or the Ante game.
