Week 41 slot games releases
Let’s have a look at this week’s latest slot game releases
According to Shane Cotter, Director of Product, “Booming Games’ latest and greatest ‘Colossal Fruit Smash’ is best described as an old school fruit machine with a modern twist”. “We were hugely excited during the production of this game” he continues, “because we knew how much fun it was going to be for our players. The game-maths is compelling, with just the right frequency of free respins, activating the colossal fruits and colossal wilds on reels 2 to 4, and the Wild 3×1 Jester in the box on reels 1 and 5. As a player you can immediately see the potential for massive wins”.
Developed by R. Franco Digital, players on Wanabet can now enjoy yet another entertaining experience with the launch of its new online slot, Magic Jewels. Available on any device, R. Franco Digital’s expert developers have released the engaging title in English and Spanish. A 5×3 slot with 243 winning paylines – Wanabet’s enchanting offering incorporates scatters, wild symbols and free spins. With a magical forest at the heart of the game, players must search far and wide for crystals and diamonds in order to combine them for the big win.
Play’n GO continue their landmark year of game releases with their latest slot to hit the market, Rainforest Magic. A lively and vibrant 5-reel slot, Rainforest Magic is, as the name suggests, set against the theme of a lush and brightly coloured rainforest and features a whole host of colourful and exotic animals adorning the reels of the game. One of the game’s most interesting features is it’s Mystery Symbol. These are symbols that pop up during the game and reveal themselves after all of the reels have stopped spinning, adding a more suspenseful feel to the overall game.
Slot design specialist Lightning Box is taking players on a fast-paced Arizona adventure in its latest release, Respin Racer. Set against a rocky desert highway, the 3×5 reel 25-line slot sees the Road Runner scorch across the dirt as he looks to rev up the held wilds and multipliers. Respin Racer contains a Respin Bonus feature which is triggered when six positions contain one of the golden symbols. These turn into stacked Road Runner symbols and if the wild kangaroo lands, players will be on course for big payouts of up to nine times their line win.
Betsoft Gaming invites players to delve into a world of riches with Caishen’s Arrival. Complete with trademark, cinematic Betsoft graphics and gameplay, this highly entertaining release is jam-packed with creative features ranging from money trees to golden artefacts and the majestic Caishen himself. CAISHEN’S ARRIVAL features fast-paced slots gameplay with amazing possibilities. Featuring a multiplier of over 35000x, this game offers big win potential. Caishen, the Chinese God of Wealth, takes centre stage and features as a wild symbol.
Pragmatic Play, has released its newest slot, Fire Strike. The 3×5, 10 payline videoslot has a classic feel and a blazing theme. As casino classics such as BARs, 7s and diamonds fill the reels, the flame lingers in the background while players look forward to landing a fire strike symbol. The more fire strike symbols that land on the reels, the higher the chance of a pay bonus, which is triggered when six or more appear on the screen. If 15 Wild fire strikes fall at the same time, players can win a jackpot of 25,000x their bet.
High 5 Games has launched an enhanced version of its popular title Shadow of the Panther, which now includes the energetic charge of the Power Bet feature for the first time. Designed specifically for the online RMG market, the 8×5 80 paylines slot follows the part man, part beast as he emerges from the darkness to navigate his way through the jungle, living dangerously among wild animals as he aims to win big prizes for players. The latest incarnation of the classic game features four different Power Bet options, where players can turbo charge their wins for 30 consecutive spins at the cost of 10x, 20x, 30x or 40x the current stake, creating an exhilarating gaming experience.
Yggdrasil, the innovative online gaming solutions provider, has fired up the slot market with the launch of its latest flaming hot YGS Masters title, Lilith’s Inferno™, in partnership with AvatarUX Studios. The 5×4 video slot takes place in a mystical underworld, as players help Lilith the friendly demon battle four gatekeepers in search of hidden glory. If the free spins mode is triggered, Lilith must fight a beast to earn spins, with each successful hit landing another go on the reels.
