New Slot Games — Weekly Round-up for June 09, 2017
By Brian Cullingworth, Last updated Jun 9, 2017
Beautiful Bones From Microgaming
Graphic and feature-rich offer provides something different
Elaborately decorated reels and superb graphics, accompanied by a catchy tune, set the stage for Microgaming’s newest release “Beautiful Bones”.
The game is a five-reel, 243-ways-to-win slot inspired by the Mexican holiday, Día de Muertos or Day of the Dead.
The slot has a wild spin again feature, in which any three symbols of a kind linked up horizontally or vertically will award an extra free spin. For that spin, the centre symbol position will turn wild.
Landing a scatter symbol on reels one or five will award a sugar skull which is then placed on the sugar skull meter. When a player hits 10 or 20 sugar skulls, the player can either enter free spins or continue the accumulation. Reaching 30 sugar skulls will automatically trigger the top tier free spins bonus offering 18 free spins with a 5x multiplier. The wild spin feature is also active in the free spins round, potentially rewarding bone-shaking wins.
Beautiful Bones goes live to operators on Wednesday 7 June 2017.
New Games Set For Release By Quickspin AB
Sticky Bandits and Wins of Fortune upcoming releases
Swedish games developer QuickSpin will be launching its latest title ‘Sticky Bandits’ during August 2017.
The Wild West-themed game follows the antics of the Sticky Bandits as they attempt to rob a runaway train. It’s described as a “thrill-a-minute rollercoaster of a ride featuring dodgy desperadoes, dynamite, and a killer spaghetti western soundtrack for all you cowboys and cowgirls out there!”
The 5×5 slot features Massive Wild symbols and Bonus symbols that trigger a Free Spins bonus.
Seven Free Spins are triggered when a Bonus symbol appears anywhere on reel 1 and a Wild symbol appears on reels 2 or 4. Positions that are wild when the bonus is triggered will remain wild for the duration of the bonus.
Sticky Bandits is also the latest title to feature Quickspin’s new Achievements Engine, which generates tasks for players to complete within the game in return for tokens that can be cashed-in to gain access to the game feature.

‘Wins of Fortune’, is another new title set for release next week. The game has an Asian flavour where players are led through a picturesque valley with mythical warriors.
Any win triggers the re-spins feature on Wins of Fortune. The winning symbols move one step to the left as the grid evolves, and remaining symbols stick for the re-spin. Wins are paid for each re-spin and continue until there are no more wins.
The sky turns red in the Super Respin mode, which starts when the game reaches the full 5×5 grid. All winning symbols stay, and the game re-spins until there are no additional winning symbols on the grid.
