Two New Slots and Aces & Faces Level Up Video Poker
Date Posted : November 5, 2008

Glitz and glamour at the Oscars, a third Power Poker edition and the hustle and bustle of the hectic news industry – all in a month's work for Microgaming.

Taking the Oscars at this month's Microgaming new game awards is a big 5 reel, 30 pay-line slot with all the glitz and glam of Hollywood and the big screen, and opportunities for reward to match: STAR APPEAL.

With a glittering starlet as the Wild and a Hollywood Walk of Fame star of honor as the Scatter, there can be no doubt that the theme here is Tinsel Town and its larger-than-life celebrities. Check out the beautiful starlet and her dynamic agent and pet Chihuahuas, chased by the paparazzi and hungry for golden awards, all portrayed in crisp, vibrant graphics and wrapped around fast, smooth running slot software that's among the best in the business.

When 3 or more Star symbols appear anywhere on the reels the player is awarded 10 free spins and taken to the second screen Star Feature and presented with a choice of 9 Stars from which to make a selection, hoping to reveal an additional Free Spins with up to a 2x multiplier, cash prizes or the Special Substitute (which substitute during free spins).

Joining these Scatter, Wild, Multiplier and Free Spin features in the Star Appeal limelight is the popular Microgaming Gamble feature, where the player can double or quadruple wins up to 3 200.00 by correctly guessing colour and suit.

The base game here can deliver a win as high as 12 500.00 in the base game and 25 000.00 with Free Spin action.

The popularity of Microgaming's new Multi Level Power Poker series is now well established, and this month the company offers the third game in this rewarding and entertaining range - ACES AND FACES LEVEL UP POKER.

This completely new game is guaranteed to keep VP fans busy as they climb a series of levels with increasing rewards for each victory. With a total of 4 levels, and the opportunity to win 8x the original bet, there are ample opportunities to score as much as 60 000.00

This version of Multi Level Level Up has an added refinement that increases the action in the shape of a Free Ride Card that aids the player to climb to the next level. The game again carries the random double-your-money Gamble feature worth up to 3 200.00 if the player picks a card of higher value than the one he or she is holding, adding to the excitement.

Aces and Faces Level Up Poker is played with one hand per level using a fresh 52 card deck for each hand. The no-nonsense player interface graphics are presented in a clean and colorful style that is easy to read and operate.

Here's a news flash from the Microgaming design studios - there are great winning opportunities available now on the firm's latest 5 reel 20 pay-line video slot LUCKY NEWS NETWORK.

Lucky News Network captures the fast paced urgency of today's hectic 24-hours-a-day news industry in a theme that features outside broadcast units, studio crew and a range of charismatic presenters and anchorpersons which colorfully set the scene for newsworthy wins.

This 5 reel, 20 pay-line thriller of a slot offers Scatter and Wild advantages, Bonus picks, Multipliers and Free Spins with up to 5x multipliers, enabling the player to not only succeed and win, but enjoy hours of entertainment on a quality video slot with a wide betting range.

Get the Bonus Bulletin symbol on reels 1 and 5, and wallpaper a second screen with 15 Bonus Bulletin Symbols to pick from and win a mystery prize….or another additional pick. Then there are those generous 20 Free Spins, which can yield up to 5x the total bet or create an instant bonus with a 157 x multiplier. Bonus Bulletin also acts as the Scatter symbol, enhancing the opportunities for reward.

The Lucky News Network logo is another one to watch out for, acting as the Wild and empowering the player to build winning combinations.
