Strange that they have not included it in this latest new games release....but I've seen Mega Moolah advertised last week, too.


WILD SAMURAIS, PROUD ROMANS AND A TOUCH OF SUMMERTIME IN NEW MICROGAMING RELEASES

Five new games in this month's package


One of the industry's leading gambling software and games developers, Microgaming, has released a bigger than usual monthly package of new games to its over 70 licensees for November. The games include video poker, blackjack and a range of video slots.

All Aces 50 Play Power Poker continues to build on the firm's popular 10 Play Power Poker series, offering players a smooth-running game that plays 50 hands at a time with every hand dealt from a separate and independent deck and big jackpots that pay up to 100 000.00. With sharp graphics and generous pay tables, Microgaming predicts that this new 50 Play game will feature high on the playlists of most video poker fans.

Blackjack fans will already be familiar with the Multi-hand Gold Series. With 5 variations of the popular single hand blackjack gamestyle, all brilliantly crafted with a mix of imagination, cutting edge technology and gambling tradition, the Multi-hand variants define new quality levels in online gambling table games, the developer claims. Outstanding new additions include better player views, an animating chip selector, an enlarged chip tray, rollover rules and ambient background music, all enhancing the casino "feel" of the game. Once play begins, the appearance of articulate icons, card flips and chip movements deliver an unprecedented level of gaming ambience and entertainment.

All the rules for each game-style are ready to hand on the table and the interactive controls are clear and well positioned. With a chip range from 1.00 to 200.00, unlimited and mixed chip stacks can be used, automatically resizing to make up the current bet with the least number of chips.

Microgamings latest video slots are at the cutting edge of gaming technology with some of the sharpest online graphics yet developed. Twin Samurai is a big, 5 reel, 20 pay-line video slot that is rich in the features players demand with a novel expanding Wild, and generous Scatter and Free Spin action that can multiply winnings and summon up the divine winds of real rewards.

The outstanding artwork captures the look and feel of the period, with delicate cherry blossoms, intricately worked armour and fierce kabuto helmets, mysterious pagoda-roofed castles and beautiful geishas that can offer the player up to 10 free spins where all wins are doubled and spins within spins are available. Players can gamble with a range that goes from a cent to the maximum bet of 100.00, and the returns can be extraordinary - up to 50 000.00 if lucky free spin rewards are taken into account.

It may be winter in the Northern Hemisphere, but down south there's plenty of sun and a real sizzler of a 5 reel, 9 pay-line video slot called Summertime.

The Wild, Scatter and double-your-money Gamble features on this enthralling game have been enhanced even further with the addition of a Free Spins reward that gives players 15 free spins in which wins are trebled. 3, 4 or 5 Scatters across the reels trigger the Free Spin feature, whilst the appearance of the Wild icon enables players to complete a winning combination and also the chance to double the value of the win. Doubling is also possible on the Gamble feature where by choosing color or suit correctly the win can be boosted to a maximum of 10 000.00

Players can win up to 50 000.00 the base game jackpot, and three times that with the help and good fortune of those generous Free Spins. With a wide betting range to suit all pockets and appetites, Summertime is set to provide hours of entertaining fun for those in the sun or those missing it.

The 5 reel 20 pay-line video slot Glory of Rome is dedicated to the majestic days of the Roman Empire and its most outstanding general and Emperor Julius Caesar. This magnificant game is redolent with the proud golden eagles and scarlet banners of the great legions, beautiful Vestal Virgins, dangerous gladiators and the raw power of the Roman Empire.

Caesar himself is the Wild in this historically themed game, which features Wild, Scatter, Free Spins and the riches of Rome in a special bonus feature.

Gladiators across the reels are the ultimate Scatter, and with three or more the special bonus feature is triggered, presenting players with 9 colourful legionary shields from which 4 may be chosen. Each offers the opportunity of either a cash reward or 10 Free Spins, where winnings are doubled to top up a players personal treasure chest.

The ultimate payouts in this game are exceptionally high. In the base game players can win up to 25 000.00, and with some help from the goddess of good Bonus fortune and Free Spin luck this can be expanded by 8 000.00 and up to 100 000.00 respectively.

From the sounds of it....

Twin Samurai is a clone of Madhatters

and...

Summertime is yet another clone of Thunderstruck/Spring Break

Such a shame that MG is more concerned about pumping out so many new games every month than taking care of the [simple] problem of people having to download hundreds of [redundant] megs or even gigs of stuff for each branded casino.

Precisely! I have come to dread 'new games release day'.

 

[frufrugirl]

temp derail...love your avatar mousey! Ho-squeak, Ho-squeak, Ho-squeak!

 

[GrandMaster]

I suggest that next year's Casinomeister awards have a category for the best avatar, and Mousey be awarded the 1st prize.

 

[frufrugirl]

Yeah, with Simmo's "Spidey with amourous Davey Crocket hat" a close second.

 

[KathyK]

Cute!!

 

[Addisyn]

mousey and kathyk are ready for the holidays! Nice avatars. I have to wait for the season finale of Heroes to be sure the cheerleader is truly saved! Only then can I dress for the season.

 

[Simmo!]

Well I have to say that I like this slot, although it isn't one of those where you can hit really big (jackpots aside) IMO. It'll suit the $200 depositor looking to cashout at $300 or $400, but less so the adrenaline-seekers looking for the $1k+ hit maybe. You could argue the jackpots go someway towards that one but we all know how rarely those will hit!

I think the remit here was to take the 3 most popular Slots elements and combine them into one slot, and quite successfully IMO: The "ISIS" engine/Reel layout, the big jackpots of "Major Millions" and "Thunderstruck's" 15 free spins at 3x.

They've managed to avoid most of the pitfalls too. The Wild still doubles the win, no crappy bonus symbols/round to get in the way of the free spins, maintain the 3 scatters-anywhere trigger feature and 2 scatters gets double the bet....areas that get sacrificed elsewhere to the detriment of enjoyment.

The only thing I'd change in a "clone" would be to make it a 9-liner thus improving the potential for bigger single hits, and replace the "flimsy" feel & "clicky" sound of the reels with a chunkier effect.

 

[Slotster!]

The "ISIS" engine/Reel layout, the big jackpots of "Major Millions" and "Thunderstruck's" 15 free spins at 3x.

I think it's got more of a "Loaded" feel to it.

Did GREAT off the free spins today... I reckon they were hitting every thirty spins or so...

 

[soflat]

Mega Moolah stinks.

350 spins @$1. I hit the free spins feature only once and was rewarded less than $10.

I didn't hit any of the random jackpots, not even the $9-10 one.

It just keeps scrolling that another player just hit the jackpot, which is a nice reminder that I am losing.

I did hit 5 elephants with a wild for $60.

 

[Addisyn]

It just keeps scrolling that another player just hit the jackpot, which is a nice reminder that I am losing.

That was exactly what I was thinking too! Why scroll another player has won the jackpot? Well then I guess I should go now.

 

[tennis_balls]

what's the deal with the coloured toilet paper at the bottom of the Mega Moolah slot?

are they there in case you hit the mega or the major jackpots?

 

[amatrine]

I can't win anything but the smallest (mini) jackpot either Gets a bit frustrating, doesn't it? I may have to stop playing this one (even though I kinda like it).

I got this in my mailbox today. I have no idea what they're talking about but I'll certainly not complain about recieving the credits.

MEGA MOOLAH



Our software provider has informed us they uploaded an incomplete movie file when they shipped the Mega Moolah progressive jackpot game,. They quickly realised this and the correct file was uploaded within 75 hours of the release. We can confirm that this error in no way affected the game results and that at no time was any players balance or payout incorrect. Nevertheless, they were so upset by this, they have requested, as a goodwill gesture, that we refund your affected losses on this game up until the time when the correct movie file was installed.



Accordingly, we are pleased to tell you that we have credited your account balance with $37.80



A detailed explanation of the issue is as follows:



The wheel in the bonus portion of the game is shown with 20 segments. For entertainment purposes, there are 12 positions within each segment where the wheel can stop. This is done merely for visual effect so that the wheel does not stop in the same place in the segment each time. In other words, there are 240 different positions in total where the wheel can be shown to stop.
The gaming server randomly generates a result for the bonus by deciding which of the jackpots is won by the player, and which corresponding segment of the wheel is to be shown to the player. This information is transmitted to the player's computer by the gaming server.
The player's computer receives this information from the gaming server and then determines where within the selected segment the wheel should stop. Obviously, where the wheel stops has no effect on the result, which has already been decided by the gaming server.
The movie file that was deployed to players computers had only 238 frames instead of the 240 frames as mentioned above.


The net effect of this malfunction was that the result, which is determined by the gaming server, was sometimes shown incorrectly on the wheel animation even though it was correctly shown on the Congratulations screen and correctly reflected on the users account balance.



As such we feel that the players experience of the game was not up to the high standard players have rightfully come to expect from our software supplier and this has resulted in the refund.



Please accept our apologies, enjoy the refund and we trust that our actions demonstrate our commitment to ensuring players get a fun and fair experience when playing at King Neptune's.



Please feel free to contact us anytime. We are always happy to answer any of your queries or questions.

Regards,

Beverly

[Simmo!]

Well bugger me!! So there's the reason why it showed me I won $12.5k and gave me $10 !!

 

[venetian]

Does this mean that ALL MG casinos will be that generous to relieve us of our debt in losing on this slot??? If so I will be getting a small fortune! I just want to add to this thread that I have played a thousand hands or so and have NEVER even seen a wheel or any way to win on it. I have gotten the bonus round many times and have never been able to share in the dissapointment of only getting $10. There is something very addicting about this game though.

Ditto here with the exception that I have hit the jackpot spins 7x, 4 of which were minors and three minies, I must say this game has seemed to tighten up, a lot less bonus games lately, typical M/G style.

Did you get the right amount for your Minors, or did you get less like me?
Sometimes the value of the Minor is increasing much faster than normal.
When you hit the Minor in that case, you get paid less than the amount you see on the screen.

 

[Simmo!]

...you get paid less than the amount you see on the screen.

Or more, as happened to me twice today Definately a little buglet in there but it seems to even itself up.

I am glad for you Simmo, but I find it unacceptable.
It cannot be that you win a jackpot and you get less or more than the amount mentioned.
Maybe they can add a question : "How much do you think you have won?"
Let's be serious!!!
