New Games for Microgaming Powered Online Casinos
Microgaming has started the month of August with another launch of new online casino games as part of their New Games Rollout campaign - promising more new games and regular game releases than any other software developer throughout the year. This time around, the lineup consists of two five-reel video slots and a Jacks or Better video poker game.
Offering twenty paylines of “reel” action is “Stash of the Titans”. Based on the cult movie of the early 80’s, which in itself was steeped in Greek mythology, “Stash of the Titans” offers some very unique and entertaining graphics, including Pegasus, the infamous monster Kraken and the Queen of the Snakes herself, Medussa. A wild symbol (Stash of the Titans logo) produces up to 10x on winnings, while the scatter symbol Medussa showing up on 3, 4 or 5 reels at once can produce up to 15 free spins with a 4x multiplier on winnings as well as up to 50x the original bet. Stakes range from a penny to 40 bucks and winnings can get up to 40,0000 with free spins.
Another new video slot offers even more chances to win with 30 paylines total. Called “The Adventures of the Galactic Gopher”, this game is likewise animated with some very unique and colorful graphics…namely, a lineup of aliens that, quite frankly, you won’t see anywhere in this world. Funny and entertaining, the Galactic Gopher (wild), along with his spaceship (scatter), are the symbols you want to see showing up on the reels the most. Up to 10 free spins can be earned at once, with mystery multipliers taking effect when a rocket blast off. There is also a gamble feature that let’s you quadruple your winnings.
Last but not least is a new video poker game called “Jacks or Better Level Up Poker”. Offering stakes as little as $.40 and as much as $20 per hand, this new machine is accommodating to anybody’s bankroll. Using a standard 52-card deck, this game is the first of a new series of video poker’s that offer higher rewards for moving onto new levels in the game. Players can win up to 4,000 coins with a multiplier of 8x.
All of the above new casino games can, of course, be found at Microgaming casinos, including a selected few who accept real money bets from U.S. players. See our list of U.S. Microgaming Casino Restrictions for more details and a selection of these reputable gaming sites.
