February 26, 2009 (InfoPowa News) — Since its unveiling at the last ICE(i) expo in London last month, WagerWorks' new online gambing offering, Battleship: Search and Destroy, has been eagerly anticipated on player message boards. The waiting ended this week as the game was released to WagerWorks licensees.
The game delivers exciting game play by the boatload, featuring 25 pay-lines, stacks of three Wild symbols on every reel, and two generous bonus rounds.
By lining up Stacked Wilds on the reels, a substantial number of simultaneous wins are triggered and some big payouts are achievable — up to 125,000 credits at max bet.
The graphics are exceptionally sharp and well detailed, and the themed audio, together with an innovative gameplay feature allowing players to choose between two entertaining bonus experiences, will be important popularity points for this new offering.
Players can engage in ship-to-ship combat in the Winning Encounter Free Spins Bonus, where each hit increases the multiplier up to a 5x maximum. Free spins are awarded until the enemy ship is sunk, the enemy is victorious, or the player has spun 100 times. A single payline win could pay up to 25,000 credits at max bet.
In the Sink the Fleet Bonus, players can stage a daring sneak attack on a fleet of enemy ships, using Battleship strategies to fire on and sink the enemy. A win of over 16,000 credits at max bet is awarded if the entire enemy fleet is sunk with less than 8 misses.
