NEW ONLINE CASINO GAMES RELEASED BY MICROGAMING
Two slots, blackjack and a poker game kick off new games for a new year
Isle of Man-based turnkey provider and online gambling software developer Microgaming has swung into its 2007 games release cycle with four new offerings this week.
Players can chance their luck in the property investment game in a brand new 5 reel, 40 pay-line video slot with plenty of reel estate action called PRIME PROPERTY.
Options include a Top Wild, a Scatter, a Bonus Scatter, Free Spins, and a Bonus Game all delivering an abundance of opportunities to chase the big returns that this portfolio of properties can bring. There's a whole range of investment options for players, including bets of up to 50.00 that can generate winnings in the base game of 15 000.00 and in the generous Free Spins mode very significant returns of up to 120 000.00. The free spins - up to 40 and up to x8 multipliers - can make a major difference to the property prizes players accumulate.
Prime Property offers something that is unique and special in this genre - the Property Pages symbol awards a bonus even before the bonus round has begun. If players are fortunate enough to find 3, 4 or 5 of these bonus scatters they can kick start the bonus game with a boost from a pre-awarded Free Spins and accompanying multipliers.
The arcane world of the Catskills Magic Academy is the setting for the next release, where entertainment and reward abound and players can take their chances on MAGIC SPELL, the latest 5 reel, 25 pay-line slot from Microgaming.
Rewards of up to 100 000.00 in the base game and a further 75 000.00 on the generous bonuses are the bottom line on this video slot with a theme centered on the feline mysteries of the Four Schools of Magic - Arcane, Alchemy, Frost and Fire - under the tutelage of wise old wizard Master Tom.
Magic is the key to the multi-tiered bonuses in this game. If you find the gold key you can unlock the library, filled with secrets and things that go bump in the night but also a choice of dusty spell books with great surprises and entry to more rewarding levels in the game. Find the Winning Crystal Orb to sweep all the valuable contents of a shelf into your prize bag but, beware, if a spell malfunctions, players are out of luck and out of the library.
Whether players lay down a cent or a dollar, this is a game full of excitement - as the reels produce a fast, smooth stream of opportunity and the thrill of taking on Lady Luck in such unique surroundings. The maximum bet is 250.00, but there's a whole range of wagering options to suit every budget.
