Undersea Magic In New Microgaming Slots.
Game designers at top software provider Microgaming have combined the popularity of the undersea environment with the multi-feature, big win thrills of the Tomb Raider format to produce the flagship of the current games releases, launched this week.Branded Mermaid's Millions, the lead game features multiple opportunities to win on waves of jackpots, free spins and bonuses with bets that can range from as little as a cent up to a dollar. Jackpots of 37,500.00 are achievable on a max bet, and can be boosted threefold to 112 500.00 if hit in a free spin.
The 15 payline, 5 reel format is set in an ocean floor fantasy world replete with richly textured, bright colour graphics of glamorous mermaids, shy lobsters, bulging treasure chests, jolly Neptunes and other sea creatures. Be sure to look for the cool, laidback seahorse!
Two of the other games in the release, Frost Bite and Cabin Fever slots have a seasonal resonance for the majority of players located in the northern hemisphere, where winter is in full swing. Both are strongly themed to meet a player trend which indicates that games relevant to a particular season attract more attention.
Business Development Manager, Mark Fredericks said the company's research and the impressive popularity of earlier seasonal releases like Spring Break and Ho Ho Ho slots suggests a link between seasons and game themes that leads to more player action. "When you combine the right theme with the excitement of feature-rich games that have been a runaway success like Thunderstruck the results are convincing," he says.
Other games launched this week include a new single deck video poker branded Aces and Eights and a completely updated craps dice game titled Vegas Craps. Market tests on the latter, which captures the look, sounds and action of what many regard to be the most dynamic and thrilling casino game, suggest that Vegas Craps will appeal to a wide cross-section of players.
The new games are available on a wide range of Microgaming-powered online casinos. See the list of participating Microgaming casinos here.
