Bust the Bank is a new slot from Microgaming with 243 ways to win, wild symbols, free spins, and a few other bonus features. I really like this new slot, which is more than I can say for a few of the latest releases. I didn’t really like Piggy Fortunes that came out last month.

Coin sizes range from $0.01 to $2 with up to 10 coins allowed per “line”. With this being a 243 way slot, bets work the same as a fixed 30 line slot. Total bet ranges from $0.30 per spin, all the way up to $600 per spin, so both low and high rollers should enjoy this game.

The free spins feature is my favorite thing about this new slot. If three or more scatters land on the reels during the same spin, you are awarded 8 free spins with the entire first and last reels being wild. Each time a scatter lands on the reels during a free spin, you are awarded an extra spin. Since this is a 243 way slot, all that needs to happen is for three of the same symbols to land on the middle reels, and you’ll hit 5-of-a-kind for that symbol nine times. Check out my screenshot below of a nice win I hit during this free spins feature.

The Safe Bonus is triggered when a safe symbol lands on reels 1 and/or 5. The safe will award a cash prize that will duplicate on each reel below, as long as it didn’t land on the bottom of the reels.

The Piggy Bank Bonus is triggered when a piggy bank symbol lands on the middle reel. A large piggy bank will pop up on the screen, and you click on it to bust it open and reveal your prize. So far I have won as high as 100x my bet on this bonus, and as low as 2x.

To top it all off, keep an eye out for Larry and Bob (the two robbers featured in the game) who can randomly throw some cash your way. It’s not always a large amount, but it’s better than nothing.

The Sopranos is a new slot created by Playtech, based on the popular HBO television show. This new slot features 25 paylines, wild symbols, and a ton of different bonus features. There are four different free spin modes and three different second-screen bonus features to be won. The free spin feature is triggered when three or more scatter symbols land on the reels during a single spin. There are four different free spin modes, three of which need to be unlocked by triggering free spins a certain number of times (very similar to Thunderstruck II and others from Microgaming). Triggering free spins with 4 or 5 scatters will give you two points on the progress bar. Once unlocked, you can choose which mode you would like to play.

The first of the Four Free Spin Modes is “Soldier”. In this mode you are given 25 free spins with Christopher as an extra wild symbol. If this extra wild lands on the center of reel 3, you are given an extra 5 free spins. The second mode is “Capo” which gives you 20 free spins with a random starting multiplier of 2x to 5x. If a Paulie symbol shows up during a spin, the multiplier for the next spin will go up by one. If there is no Paulie symbol, the multiplier for the next spin will go down by one.

The “Boss” mode is the next unlock, which gives you 10 free spins with 2 to 5 additional wilds added to the reels on every spin. If a wild symbol lands on the center of reel 3, before the extra wilds are added, you are given another 5 free spins. The last mode to unlock is “Family” which gives you 10 free spins with only the 6 characters and the scatter being present on the reels. The wild symbol will double any wins it is involved with during free spins. Even though the scatter is present during this mode, it cannot re-trigger the feature.

The Raid Bonus can be triggered randomly while playing the main game. You are given 4 envelopes filled with cash, and 4 places to hide them. Only two of the stash locations are safe, and two will be found during the raid. You get to keep whatever amounts are not found during the raid. You can play it safe by ensuring you get 2 envelopes, or you can try get all four while risking them all, it’s up to you to decide.

The Bada Bing Bonus is triggered when the Bada Bing symbol lands on reels 2, 3, and 4 during the same spin. All 5 other characters are waiting to meet Tony, choose which one you want him to meet next and you will win a cash prize. After the meeting, one of two things can happen. You either get to pick the next person for Tony to meet, or the bonus will end and you will return to the game.

The Stolen Goods Bonus is triggered when the shipping crate symbol lands on reels 1 and 5 during the same spin. You are shown 10 containers and the cash prizes that are in them, but you don’t know how much each container holds until you pick it. After you choose the first container, you can quit and take the prize, or swap it for another pick. You are given up to 3 picks, with the third pick being final.

You can find this new slot at any of these trusted Playtech Casinos. The ton of features available can keep you entertained for hours and possibly richer than when you start playing.

Girls with Guns is a new online slot from Microgaming featuring 243 ways to win, stacked wilds, an expanding wild, and a free spins feature. This new slot appears to be a clone of the original Lord of the Rings slot before they changed it and added progressives.

They later changed the theme to The Dark Knight after JRR Tolkien’s estate sued Warner Brothers over misuse of the brand, namely for putting the brand on slot machines with plans to do the same with The Hobbit.

Warner has recently counter-sued the estate, claiming lost revenue and reduced exposure for the brand, but I don’t think we’ll be seeing any LOTR or The Hobbit slots any time soon.

Anyway, back to Girls with Guns. It is a 243-way slot with a minimum bet of 30 cents per spin, up to a maximum of $30 per spin. The amount of paylines, or ways in this case, can not be adjusted.

Your bet works the same as it would on a fixed 30 line slot. The coin size for the game can be adjusted from a penny up to a nickel, and up to 20 coins per “line” can be played.

The wild in the game is the Girls with Guns symbol, and this appears stacked 3 symbols high on each reel. There is also an expanding wild on the third reel that will expand to fill the entire reel, regardless of where it lands.

The scatter symbol is a heart-shaped grenade; when three or more of these scatters land on the reels during the same spin, you are awarded 15 free spins. One random reel will become wild on each free spin which can help score some big wins. It’s too bad there is no multiplier during free spins, but there are a ton of wilds on the reels so that makes up for it. Free spins can be re-triggered.

I think I enjoyed the Lord of the Rings version better. Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against sexy women with guns (though real ones instead of cartoons would be better), I’m just a big fan of the LOTR books and movies. The movie clips that played while you were playing the LOTR version actually added a lot in terms of making an entertaining slot machine. I hit a decent win during one of the first times I got free spins on this slot, you can see the screenshot of that win below, along with paytable information.

The Finer Reels of Life is a new online slot found at Microgaming casinos. This new slot features 243 ways to win, wild symbols, and several different bonus features. It is another clone of the popular Thunderstruck II, which is where Immortal Romance came from.

To accommodate most levels of play, the coin sizes that are supported on the game range from $0.01 to $0.05. All bet amounts are automatically multiplied by 30 ‘lines’, so the minimum bet is 30 cents and the max bet is $7.50 per spin.

There are two wild features that are offered in the game. The first is a standard wild, which is the logo. This symbol can appear in any position on the reels and will substitute for all other game symbols except the scatter. The second wild feature is one of the main highlights of the game and is called the Wild Celebration feature. This can be triggered at random at the start of any spin on the game. When the feature is activated, you will have the chance to enjoy as many as 5 reels turning wild, creating the chance to collect massive cash payouts.

The main feature that makes the game exciting is the Finer Features, which is triggered by getting scatter icons (Bonus Star). Two scatters will award a standard scatter payout, but three will trigger a game bonus. Within the bonus, there are four different features that are available, including Coffee and Chocolate, Wine and Cheese, Whiskey and Cigars and Champagne and Diamonds.

Each feature will offer different reward amounts and various numbers of free spins with multipliers. The triggered round will depend on how many stars have been collected. Each time the feature is triggered, you will earn a star for the star meter. The more that are collected, the higher tier you will be able enter in the bonus round. Once you unlock the bonus features, you can choose which one you want to play each time you trigger the bonus.

The Coffee and Chocolate feature offers 10 free spins with a great 5x multiplier and this can be entered with 1-4 stars. The Wine and Cheese round will require between 5 and 9 stars, and features 15 free spins with a special wild wine icon. When this wild lands on the middle reel, it will randomly turn other symbols on the reels into wild symbols.

Whiskey and Cigars is triggered with 10 to 14 stars and offers you 20 free spins on the game with burning wilds. Burning wilds can randomly turn symbols into 2x or 3x multipliers, and a 6x multiplier can be awarded if two symbols start to burn. The Champagne and Diamonds bonus will award 25 free spins with rolling reels and you will need 15-20 stars to activate this tier. Rolling reels means that symbols involved in a win will disappear and be replaced with new symbols that fall in from the top, this can award multiple wins on one spin. Each consecutive win will increase the multiplier by one, up to 5x.

Ghost Rider is a new addition to the selection of Marvel Comic slots that are developed by Playtech. This new slot features 20 paylines, two bonus features, wild symbols that expand during free spins, and four progressive jackpots.

As with most slots from Playtech, you will have the ability to adjust your bet by changing the bet per line and the number of paylines in play. The bet per line can be as low as one cent, and as high as $5, making the minimum bet $0.01 and max $100 per spin.

The highlight of this slot game is the four random progressive jackpots that are offered. You will have the chance to win any of these regardless of the wager placed on the game, but if you place higher bets, your chances of winning will be increased. These progressives are linked to all other Playtech casinos, so the amounts can grow quickly.

To help you generate more payouts, there is a wild symbol present on the three middle reels, which will substitute for all other symbols with the exception of the scatter. The scatter is the Ghost Rider logo which can appear in any position on any of the reels. When three or more land on the same spin, it will trigger a free spins feature, giving you 10 free spins with a x3 multiplier. During free spins the wild symbol will expand to cover the entire reel it lands on, and getting three or more scatters will award an extra 10 free spins.

The Ghost Hunt Bonus is triggered when all 5 reels become activated. The symbol showing the Ghost Rider on a motorbike will activate a reel when it lands on the middle position of that reel. Any wins that are generated in the bonus round will be multiplied by the amount of the bet that was placed. During the bonus, you will use your mouse to help Ghost Rider catch some ghosts and win some cash. Some ghosts can escape your grasp, but you will catch a minimum of 7 of the 10 ghosts that appear.

Make sure not to change your bet when reels are activated, otherwise the activated reels of your previous bets will not apply. If you do change your bet and come back to the previous set total bet, the reels that were activated at that bet will still be activated. This feature can not be activated during free spins because the symbol that activates the reels is not present on the reels during the feature.

You can play Ghost Rider now at any of these trusted Playtech Casinos.

Armadillo Artie is a new addition to the list of slot games that are offered at Intercasino. This 5 reel, 25 payline slot features a horizontally expanding wild, a free spins feature, and an extra bonus feature that can be triggered during free spins.

I think this is the first slot I’ve ever seen with a wild that expands horizontally. Too bad it only expands to the right, but I guess it would be too easy if it expanded both ways. Hitting 5 wilds every few spins wouldn’t be very fun, would it? ;)

When playing the game, you will have the ability to select from various coin denominations to suit any casino budget. This feature will allow everyone the chance to enjoy the game regardless of the size of their casino budget. With a minimum bet of 25 cents up to a maximum of $250 per spin, even the highest rollers should be satisfied.

To help create more payouts, the game features an expanding wild symbol on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5. When the wild Artie symbol appears, he goes rolling to the right turning all symbols in that row wild, and will substitute for all regular game symbols. If an Artie symbol appears on the second reel, it will create an instant five of a kind win.

The bonus feature that is offered in the game is a free spins round. When you activate the round with 3 of the Sherriff’s badge symbols, you will be rewarded with 10 free spins on the game. During these free spins, wins pay both right-to-left and left-to-right. I have found that really helps rack up the wins during free spins, mainly because the wild symbols appear on the last couple reels more often than on the 2nd and 3rd reels. The wild symbol still expands to the right, so you win every time it lands on one of the middle three reels during free spins.

Unfortunately, the free spin round cannot be re-triggered, but there is another bonus game that will be offered. The Bowling Bonus round will be triggered when two or more bonus symbols appear on the middle three reels during a free spin. This bonus will award 3 free frames and each will consist of one roll. The maximum payout for this bonus round is 30 times your bet if you roll three strikes.

Armadillo Artie slot may not offer a huge progressive, but it can provide you with some very big wins. You can find this new slot at the Cryptologic casinos found on this website.

Like all other progressives, a portion of your wagers will contribute to the jackpots and make them go up, but you will only contribute to the ones that your are eligible for.

Minor: Must trigger by $150,000
Major: Must trigger by $200,000
Maxi: Must trigger by $250,000
Grand: Must trigger by $300,000

The game features an expanding wild that will cover an entire reel to create more winning combinations. The wild can appear on all reels and will take the place of regular game icons. The wild will also trigger a bonus round when it appears on the first and last reels. This can award as many as 25 free spins and multipliers.

The wild icon will trigger the Spirit of the Inca Feature when it appears on reels 1 and 5 during the same spin. When the bonus is activated, you will see 15 bonus symbols on the screen and will have five selections. The first three selections will determine the number of free games won, with 25 free spins being the maximum. The fourth selection will offer a multiplier between 1x and ten 10x and the final selection can give you a wild reel or an extra wild on each reel during all of the free spins.

There is also a scatter icon in the game which is represented by the Priestess. This symbol can also appear in any position and three or more icons will award a cash payout. The scatters will not trigger any additional game feature and the most that can be won is 100 times the bet when getting five scatter icons in a single spin.

This new five reel slot has 50 paylines, wild symbols, a progressive jackpot, several bonus features, and is part of the Rudolph vs Santa slot series that has been a main attraction at RTG casinos. Loaded with game features, The Elf Wars will not only provide you with many chances to win, but it will also offer hours of entertainment.

Bet sizes range from $0.50 to $50 per spin, making this slot enjoyable for most types of players. The number of paylines can not be changed.

There are many things that are going on in this game and players will find that there are tons of opportunities to win in addition to creating standard game combinations using the symbols. The game offers two different wild symbols, which are Santa and Rudolph. Both wild icons will substitute for regular game symbols to create winning combinations.

Just like the wilds in the game, there are also two scatter symbols. These are the Good Elves and the Bad Elves. The elves scatters will work as traditional scatters and do not have to appear on any particular payline. All scatter wins will be multiplied by the amount of the bet placed and payouts will begin with just two scatter symbols on the reels. You also get a single re-spin if two scatters land, giving you a second chance for the third scatter to land. When three or more matching scatters appear on the reels in a single spin, you choose one of them to reveal your bonus.

Play The Elf Wars now at Lucky Red Casino!

When the feature is triggered by Good Elves, you will win one of two bonus rounds, Santa Strikes Back or Jackpot Spins. With three Bad Elves triggering the feature, the bonuses are Rudolph’s Revenge or Rudolph’s Rampage.

During the Rudolph’s Rampage feature, you are taken to Santa’s ransacked toy factory where you pick from 8 locations to find 3 elves. You can win up to 50 free spins, all the way down to just 5 free spins. The less picks it takes to find all 3 elves, the more free spins you will receive. If an elf is found holing a red present, scattered elves act as wild symbols during free spins. If an elf is found holding a blue present, all wins are quadrupled during free spins. If an elf is found holding a green present, Rudolph will expand to cover the entire third reel during all free spins.

In the Rudolph’s Revenge feature, you are given 7 free spins with all wins starting with a multiplier of 2, plus the number of wild Rudolph symbols on the screen when each spin is completed. If 4 or 5 scatters triggered the feature, the scattered elves act as wild symbols during free spins.

The Santa Strikes Back feature, you are awarded 7 free spins with an initial multiplier of 1. During free spins some symbols will have candy canes on them; when a candy cane appears on a reel, it will light the star above that reel. When all 5 stars are lit up, the number of free spins will reset to 7 and the multiplier will go up by 1. This feature can reset up to 9 times, with a final multiplier of 10 for the last 7 free spins.

The Jackpot Spins feature, you are taken to a wheel with 6 segments which will spin up to three times. Each spin of the wheel can award an instant prize of up to 100x your bet, trigger the Santa Strikes Back feature, or award the Progressive Jackpot. Spins end if either the feature or jackpot are awarded.

This new game is a great addition to the Rudolph vs Santa series of slots. With an attractive theme, comical animations and some awesome bonus rounds, The Elf Wars remains a top selection for Christmas themed slot games online. This game is only offered in RTG casinos.

Battlestar Galactica was released by Microgaming in December 2012. This new slot features 243 ways to win, stacked wilds, free spins, unlock-able video content, and three different play modes. Obviously the theme is based on the Battlestar Galactica television series which, to be honest, I never really watched when it was on TV. When you line up symbols that feature a character from the show, a video clip will play from the TV show with that character in it. Each spin of the reels will give you experience points which are used to give you a rank. As you increase in rank, you will unlock new video clips from the Battlestar Galactica TV series that play when you win. The higher your bet is, the more experience points you will gain per spin. There are three different game modes that are randomly activated while you play, Normal Mode, Run Mode, and Fight Mode.

Normal Mode is what you start with when you first play this slot. The Ion Storm can be randomly triggered at any time during Normal Mode and it can turn entire reels wild, up to all five of them. This is similar to the Wildstorm feature from Thunderstruck II and the Wild Desire feature from Immortal Romance.

Run Mode can be activated randomly at any time; during this mode all wins pay from left-to-right and right-to-left. There is a Faster Than Light (FTL) symbol added to the middle reel during this mode. If the FTL symbol lands on the middle reel during a spin, that symbol will change to and random one from the paytable, and change every A K Q J 10 on the screen to that symbol. Big wins are possible if the reels have a lot of playing card symbols, and the FTL symbol changes to a high paying one.

Fight Mode can only be triggered during Run Mode. During this mode, random symbols can be turned wild at any time, and these wilds can also split in two to create more winning combinations. The Free Spins feature is also different when triggered during Run Mode, you are only given 5 free spins rather than 15, but additional free spins can be awarded during the feature.

The Free Spins feature is triggered when three or more scatters land on the reels during a spin. You are awarded coins for the scatter win plus 15 free spins with all wins being tripled. Free spins cannot be re-triggered.

You can play Battlestar Galactica today at any of these trusted Microgaming Casinos.

Break Away is a new online slot game powered by Microgaming with 243 with ways to win, stacked wilds, rolling reels, and a free spins bonus feature. It is one of the 243 ways slot games that have become more of a staple as far as new games go by the software. This game, along with Octopays, are the newest games to be released by the software group and have quickly become quite popular with players, including myself.

The theme is hockey; who doesn’t love hockey and slot machines? I know that I, and many of my fellow Canadians, love a good game of hockey, mix that with a slot game and there are hours of entertainment available without even having to leave the house. The NHL and NHLPA are once again destroying a season due to greed on both sides, but we won’t get into that right now, let’s focus on this great new slot game.

The Rolling Reels feature comes in to play every time symbols line up for a win. After the win is tallied up, the symbols explode and new ones fall in. If they line up for a win, they will explode again, and the process continues until no winning combinations are found.

The wild symbol is only stacked on reels 3, 4, and 5 and is the game logo for Break Away. The wild symbols can make up reel combinations for all other symbols besides the scatter and once they are activated they create a very cool animation on the screen. That’s part of the charm of the game, great design and very well put together. Watch out for the Smashing Wild feature too, two hockey players will skate in from the sides and smash into each other, turning one of the middle three reels wild.

Get 25 free spins on Break Away – Click Here

The Free Spins feature is triggered by 3, 4, or 5 scatters landing on the reels during the same spin. You are awarded 15, 20, or 25 free spins based on the number of scatters that trigger the feature. Not only will 5 scatters give you 25 free spins, it will also give you up to 125,000 coins depending on your bet size; with a $5 spin you would win $1250. During the free spins, the rolling reels feature kicks it up a notch. The first win on a free spin is not multiplied, but after the symbols explode and new ones drop in the next win is multiplied by two. The multiplier goes up by one each time symbols line up for a win, up to a maximum of 10x.

The coin denominations vary also so it’s a perfect game for just about any budget. Whether you are a low roller, medium roller or high roller you will find a bet that’s right for you. That’s what makes this game even more attractive; anyone can play it and any bet can win a huge amount.
