Now the Emmy winning TV show is celebrated in a new form, that of a fantastic new slot from Microgaming. CEO of Microgaming Roger Raatgever stated that Microgaming “plan on taking all the features of the small screen fantasy epic to create a masterpiece of a slot”, so let’s take a look at how they’ve done.
The new Game of Thrones slot is a 5×3 reel game that boasts 15 fixed paylines and includes scatter symbols, wilds and bonus triggers, as well as a chance to gamble your winnings with a chance to double them if you are lucky. Spins start at just 0.15 for the 15 payline game.
You can play the 15 paylines game, or a 243 ways to win game, which costs 0.30 as a minimum starting prize.
In the base game, Wilds are stacked three symbols high and this remains the same in free spins, giving you a great chance to land a winning combo across the reels. However, it is the scatter symbols which activate the bigger paying features of the game. Two scatters anywhere across the reels earns you the scatter bonus,
However, three, four or five scatters across the reels triggers the free spins feature, where the player is given a choice of four free spin features, one linked to each of the famous houses, Baratheon, Lannister, Stark and Targaryen, taken from Game of Thrones story. Each feature in the Game of Thrones online slot offers between 8 and 18 free spins depending on the house you pick with the more free spins you receive, the smaller the multiplier offered.
Each feature is different to the next offering a different number of free spins, a multiplier for the game and in each bonus game, the number of high symbols stacked also varies.
Once free spins has completed, players are then given the opportunity to double their wins through the Trail Gamble feature. If you gamble your cash and win, you progress onto the next stage of the Map.
Fans of the TV series will love the look of the slot which uses the same earthy tones as its colour scheme with a host of fantastic symbols taken direct from the Game of Thrones story and an epic storyline, this new slot certainly does appear to fulfil Microgaming’s promise of producing an epic world class slot.
Game of Thrones slot will be landing in Microgaming Online Casino in December.
