More of the Latest Stories from Microgaming
September 11, 2014
Less than a few weeks ago we discussed a new online pokie that was added to Microgaming’s Multi-Player & Tournament Network called Sweet Harvest. In this article we will also be discussing another new game which recently arrived on this network, plus we will also take a look of three of Microgaming’s latest pokies.
On August 20th, Microgaming decided to celebrate golfing season by introducing a new online pokie tourney called The Argyle Open Slot Tournament. You find this new tournament game within the download client at more than 100 fully licensed Microgaming casinos. One of these new tourneys was a freeroll pokie tournament which had a €25,000 prize pool up for grabs and the other event was September’s €100,000 network tournament.
“For us, it’s all about timely content; delivering games to our operators’ players that will get them excited and keep them engaged,” said the Microgaming Product Manager for Multi-Player Games, James Ford. These words came from the official Microgaming website. The pokie that participants get to play on throughout these new events is a golf themed pokie called The Argyle Open.
At the time of writing, you CANNOT sign up for any of the Microgaming pokie tournaments or any of the online blackjack tournaments over the company’s instant flash casino platform. You can ONLY take part in one of these events from within the Microgaming casino download client. The tournament lobby & upcoming schedule of events can be found by clicking on the Multi-Player & Tournaments button, which is in the Games Section.
The Argyle Open pokie has 5 reels and 40 winning paylines. The Wild Symbols are the Argyle Open Logos and these can substitute all other symbols on the reels apart from the Scatter Symbols and three or more Scatter Symbols will trigger second screen bonus round where you get to play a round of golf to win prizes such as cash, free spins and multipliers.
“September holds one of the biggest tournaments in the golfing calendar, so what better time to deliver The Argyle Open tournament pokie and the associated €100,000 network tournament! You don’t have to be at Gleneagles to be a part of the golfing action,” added Ford. Entry into the big event starts from AU$10 and the top 50 players will each win a share of the prize pool, while the winner gets to walk away with approximately AU$5,000.
Microgaming also recently launched three new pokies which included So Much Sushi, So Much Candy and So Many Monsters. These new pokies all have 5 reels and 25 winning paylines with Scatter Symbols, Wild Symbols, Split Symbols and Free Spins Bonus Rounds.
