Slots Hero

Mega Moolah is one of the biggest online slots game successes to come out of Microgaming. Since the release of the original online slots game, it has had three more themed variations of it created to keep the popularity going.

Now Mega Moolah is to have its own website. Yes, an operator has launched a website that is just for Mega Moolah and no other online slots games. The site, which is MegaMoolah.co.uk, is now live following its six month soft launch. When the site opened it gave the message: “Mega Moolah is something special! Not only does it provide the biggest jackpots in online casino history, it was also the first four tiered progressive casino slot developed by Microgaming.”

The Mega Moolah site is completely dedicated to that online slots game. Currently the site is only in a flash format and only offers the African safari themed Mega Moolah. Animals have been added to guide players through this online slots game’s features and history. There is a monkey who will list the biggest jackpot winners. The giraffe will give players information on actually playing this version of Mega Moolah. The antelope will take players to a link to download the game and the elephant will help guide players to playing it on their mobile devices.

Even though the site is separate on its own from an online casino, it still is a progressive online slots game. Every time the jackpot is won it will reset to a $1,000,000. The Mega Moolah site does offer a bonus to those who download the game’s software. A first deposit it can receive up to £200 with a 100% bonus, and the second bonus can receive up £300 from another 100% bonus.

I am breaking the rule. I am talking about a fight club. Well this is not the fight club made famous by Chuck Palahniuk so I think it is okay for me to talk about it.

Over at the Microgaming powered online casino All Jackpots there is a fight club and there are three days left to get in and swing for your online slots game.

The All Jackpots Fight Club pits two Microgaming online slots games against each other. There is a round each week with each round lasting one week; so that means twelve rounds. This round the fight is between the Hitman online slots game and the Hellboy online slots game. The way it works is that All Jackpots is tracking the wagering on each game during the course of the Fight Club promotion. Whichever online slots game is played more—based on the wagers placed—will be the winner.

The interest and promotion part for players is this: the top ten players who played the winning online slots game will be awarded. So with a new set of winners each week, that means there are 120 winners total. The top prize is $400, but the top ten will be awarded.

There are three days left in this week’s round and right now Hellboy is winning with an increase in wagering of 65.58%. But that could easily change if the Hitman players rally.

So players who want to get in on the fight need to hop over to All Jackpots to get in on the Fight Club action. Wager your best and hopefully you will be in the top ten of the winning online slots game’s scoreboard.

QuickFire is quickly being heralded as one of the best and most innovative products to come rolling out of Microgaming. Online casino operators can choose to sign on to use the QuickFire program to offer their players access to Microgaming games, especially their online slots games. What operators like about the QuickFire platform is that it does not require the back end support that online casino games normally offer.

The QuickFire platform also allows online casino operators to offer Microgaming online slots games without having to partner with Microgaming. This can be evidenced by looking at Virgin Casino. Virgin is not partnered with Microgaming but they still offer their online slots games. This is because Virgin is signed on to use the QuickFire platform.

Now Microgaming is adding to their QuickFire platform. Already the product has more than 500 online slots games, including such favorites as The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and Thunderstruck II. New games to the QuickFire platform are to include new August releases such at Triangulation and Spingo, which is a combination of Bingo and roulette. Last month say the addition of Hexaline to the QuickFire platform.

When QuickFire first launched last year, it offered only some of the classically favorite online slots games. New online slots games were uploaded to the platform a couple to a few months later. But that is changing as QuickFire grows and as Microgaming’s reach expands. Now new online casino games are uploaded to QuickFire within the same month as their release.

Microgaming was sure out of the gate this month. Here it is only the second day of August and already we have some of the details about their third new online slots game for this month.

If you tuned in yesterday, you know that the other two new online slots games from Microgaming this month are the multiplayer format of Isis and the second in a new format of online slots called Triangulation.

Microgaming’s third online slots game to be released this month takes the route of the more traditional online slots game. By that I mean that it does not fall in with any new trends in the slots industry, nor does it fall in with a new format of online slots play. This is a new theme with the usual approach to online slots. Not that a traditional approach is a bad thing; sometimes it is nice to go back to the familiar way of playing. Not to mention it lets players sit back and enjoy a new theme without focusing on the game too closely.

The new theme to come from Microgaming is Mount Olympus: Revenge of Medusa. Beware—Medusa is not someone to mess with.

Actually players will want to come up against Medusa. Her head of snakes is the trigger for the bonus game in this online slots game. Players will also have the opportunity to trigger a free spins feature and receive wild and scatter payouts. There will be more details on Mount Olympus: Revenge of Medusa once Microgaming actually releases its new batch of online slots games this month. So stay tuned.

Not too long ago I discussed one of the emerging trends in online slots, the multi player online slots game. So far the online software developer to really latch on to this new multi player format for online slots is Microgaming. But we all know how smooth they are when it comes to being innovative with their online slots games.

Now that we are in a new month it means new online slots games, and Microgaming is not about to disappoint. They have taken one of their popular classic titles from their slots line up and created a new game.

The remade classic slots game is the five reel, forty payline Isis slots game. Now it comes in a multi player format which is to be launched this month.

Like in a standard multi player online slots game, players will be grouped into rooms based on their wagers. This is to prevent a high roll from coming up against a low stakes player. Players in the same room will have the ability to chat with each other. Once the bonus game triggers, players will receive a portion of the bonus prize based on their points standing in their room.

Microgaming has not limited the new multi player Isis slots game to only the group bonus game. They have also given this online slots game a free spins feature that includes stacked wilds.

This new multi player format of Isis is set to hit Microgaming powered online casinos this month. This is one of three new online slots games to be launched by Microgaming this month so keep your eye out at Microgaming powered online casinos, such as All Jackpots, for the arrival of the new multi player Isis online slots game as well as two others. Stay tuned to hear about those two…

Software developers can come out with as many themes as the day is long. But at the end of that day online slots games are the same at their core: set your slots wager, click Spin and wait for the reels to stop.

But along comes Microgaming with something new. Microgaming is known to always be at the forefront of the new and improved when it comes to online slots games. As an example I would like to point you all in the direction of one of their releases from May: Real 3D Sterling Silver. This is an online slots game that means it when it says 3D. Online slots players need the goofy 3D glasses in order to make the symbols and graphics pop out of the computer screen. Other online slots games with rich, intensive graphics call themselves 3D but they are not real 3D in the sense that the graphics pop out of the screen.

Now Microgaming is at it again with one of their new releases for the month of July. The name of the game is Hexaline, and Microgaming is calling it an alternative online slots game.

Are you ready for this? The aim behind Hexaline is not about landing matching symbols. Instead players spin the reels in hopes of completing a chain of hexagons that all share the same color. Doing so will award the appropriate payout. Once that payout is made, the matching hexagons are dropped out and replaced randomly with other hexagons. If a new color combination is made another payout is made. This continues until the new hexagons do not make another color combination, at which point the online slots player can spin the reels again.

One thing that I do like about it is the ability to win more than one payout on a single spin depending on how many color combinations of hexagons are formed when new random hexagons replace the previous winning ones.

So you can see where this is like an online slots game but with a twist. And it is that twist that will grab online slots players’ attention, making this sure to be a hit this summer. Look for Hexaline at Microgaming powered online casinos, such as All Jackpots, in the coming weeks.

While they may not get the latest from Microgaming as soon as it is released, Virgin Casino does eventually receive the newer online slots games made but the popular online slots game developer. The reason Virgin may not receive them right away could be a result of the fact that Virgin is not solely powered by Microgaming, or that Virgin receives their Microgaming slots games through the QuickFire platform.

Either way the Rhyming Reels Queen of Hearts online slots game is finally coming to Virgin. The slots game was originally released back in February, and is based on the nursery rhyme in which the knave steals the queen’s tarts. It was said to be the first in a series that Microgaming would do based on nursery rhymes. There has yet to be anymore online slots games with nursery rhyme themes.

To welcome the Queen of Hearts to Virgin Casino, Virgin is hosting a Queen of Hearts slots promotion. This is another promotion in which slots players wager into tiers. Whatever tier they wager into will determine what bonus they receive:

Tier 1: wager £2,000 = bonus £50
Tier 2: wager £4,000 = bonus £100
Tier 3: wager £6,000 = bonus £150
Tier 4: wager £8,000 = bonus £200
Tier 5: wager £10,000 = bonus £250
Tier 6: wager £12,000 = bonus £300
Tier 7: wager £14,000 = bonus £350
Tier 8: wager £16,000 = bonus £400
Tier 9: wager £18,000 = bonus £450
Tier 10: wager £20,000 = bonus £500

The Queen of Hearts promotion began yesterday, June 6th, and will continue through to June 12th. Players can wager on the new Queen of Hearts online slots game along with a thirty one other online slots games. The total pound amount wagered by the end of the promotion will determine which tier online slots players fall into and which bonus prize they receive.

Do you live outside of the United States? Do you like online slots games? Specifically Microgaming’s online slots games? Are you looking for a new place to play?

If you answered yes to those questions I may have an online casino for you: All Jackpots.

All Jackpots is a Microgaming powered online casino; hence the live outside of the US question. No Microgaming online casino will accept a US player simply because Microgaming does not want to tussle with the US’s Department of Justice. Not that I blame them after Black Friday and Blue Monday.

But back to All Jackpots. As a Microgaming powered online casino they are home to some of the most popular online casino games out there, including Thunderstruck and Thunderstruck II, Lord of the Rings and the new real 3D online slots game Sterling Silver 3D. Microgaming routinely releases new online slots games that are always successful. Not to mention this software developer is responsible for creating the Sneak a Peek online slots series. Guess what players look at there.

But now there is a new reason to sign up with All Jackpots. All Jackpots is one of the online casinos that belong to the Jackpot Factory. The Jackpot Factory is hosting a new promotion—a giveaway. Players who sign up at All Jackpots and make their first deposit at least $30 or more will receive a ticket to be entered into a drawing for an iPad2. Drawings will happen at the end of each quarter with the first happening June 30th.

New players only receive one ticket for signing up. But iPad2 drawing aside, Microgaming online casinos offer players a well-defined online slots experience. They are not the creators of some of the most popular online slots games for nothing.

I know you guys are hearing a lot about Microgaming recently, but here is the deal: they are the only major software developer that is moving and shaking right now, hence so much about Microgaming online slots.

Of late Vegas Technology, Rival Gaming and Real Time Gaming have not been active in the news. It could be the recent Blue Monday seizure of ten online casino sites by the Department of Justice. There is more worry in the online gambling casino, and everyone is in a tizzy to get their I’s dotted and T’s crossed so as not to face prosecution by a zealous US Attorney General. After all, Microgaming does not operate in any US facing online casinos.

That being said thus far I only have news of four online slots games being launched this month. Other software developers may well start announcing their releases later but for now all we have is Microgaming.

On June 9th four new online slots games will go live with Microgaming powered online casinos, such as All Jackpots. Those games are Gold Factory Slots, Sterling Silver 3D Slots, Sonic 7s Slots and Jacks or Better Video Poker Slots. This batch of new online slots offers a lot of new features between the four of them:

Sterling Silver 3D Slots is the first real 3D online slots game to come from Microgaming. Those funky glasses are needed to see the graphics properly and to avoid potential headaches from long play periods.

Sonic 7s Slots comes with Microgaming’s new Power Spins feature. Power Spins wagers an additional third of a player’s wager. Thankfully the feature is not automatically triggered; it is active only if player clicks on it.

Jacks of Better Video Poker Slots is the first in a new Microgaming Reel Play Poker series. This is to be an online slots series that works poker into the game. Rather than winning combinations, players are hoping to land poker hands on the reels.

Given the amount of new features launched this month, Microgaming is hitting June with a punch.

Less than a year ago Microgaming introduced a new feature to its software. This new feature was meant to function as a flash program that would allow online casinos to access Microgaming online slots games faster and with more ease; this meant less upkeep and maintenance on the back end operations of online casinos. It also allowed Microgaming to acquire more online gambling partners, thus spreading the reach of their online slots game even further. That feature is QuickFire.

What started as a program to make access to online slots games easier has turned into a must-have. In less than a year QuickFire boasts a portfolio of more than 220 of Microgaming’s top games, most of which are their online slots games. Favorites include The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and both Thunderstruck titles.

Seeing just how popular and widespread their lineup has grown in less than a year, Microgaming is now uploading almost all of their new online slots games when they are launched.

From an online slots player’s point of view, online casinos get more new Microgaming online slots games faster. This means more new slots for players to start spinning the reels of faster than before QuickFire existed.

For Microgaming, they are seeing their reach expand through their partner online casinos. This spreads the word, and incidentally, the demand for Microgaming online casino games further. QuickFire was probably the smartest software release by Microgaming thus far.

I have no doubt that we will see more online casinos partnering fully with Microgaming or partnering as a multi platform casino in order to access QuickFire.
