JOIN THE SLOT COMMUNITY ON MICROGAMING'S NEW WHEEL
OF WEALTH
27 November 2009
Innovative new concept combines the community
trend with up-to-the-moment online slot technology
It appears that online gambling software developer
Microgaming has come up with another technological
first, a multi-player slot that combines two current
trends among players - interactivity and community.
The company claims that it's latest game,
Multi-Player Wheel of Wealth, Special Edition is the
world’s first true multi-player slot game.
Players entering the game are randomly allocated a
playing room and are seated at one of the six
independent five reel, twenty five line slot machines
within that room. If a player wishes to change their
slot or their room, a simple control button enables this
to be done immediately.
Players can interact with
each other through an in-built chat function.
The individual slots play in the conventional manner,
with Wilds, Scatters, and Multipliers used to pursue
wins. But in addition to this, players can benefit from
the randomly triggered, shared Wheel of Wealth feature.
Players who have qualified by accruing bonus multipliers
on their individual slots are each invited to select one
of twenty, big paying, stops on the Wheel of Wealth. The
wheel spins and each player wins according to their
position on the wheel.
Microgaming slots
spokesman Mike Hebden said this week: “We monitor gaming
trends closely and are always on the look out for areas
where we can innovate and introduce high quality games
which enhance player experience. We are in no doubt of
the importance of the social interaction element in
online gaming, and it is clear that this trend is
gaining ever increasing momentum.
“Multi-Player
Wheel of Wealth, Special Edition is the first game of
its kind to introduce the combination of chat-inclusive
community action, mixed with interactive slot play. We
will continue to innovate in this area and remain
committed to delivering high quality games that directly
respond to this evolution in gaming.”
Further
recognising the importance of the community and social
aspect of online gaming, Microgaming’s Bingo products
also incorporate a wealth of chat functions. Specialist
bingo managers offer fun side games in chat and are a
key part of the bingo experience.
Meanwhile
Microgaming’s Multi-Player casino platform has seen
entries into its slot + blackjack tournaments rise to
more than one million each month. The biggest of these
tourneys was the recent Tomb Raider themed Grand Slam of
Slots, where nearly 8 500 players battled to be a part
of online gaming history and become the world’s first
online slot tournament millionaire.
