We can start by taking a look at a brand new online slot machine that recently arrived in casinos, then we can take a look at a record-breaking win that recently occurred at a Microgaming powered mobile casino called Lucky Zodiac Mobile Casino. The very latest slot to have arrived in casinos was the new Jungle Jim – El Dorado online slot from Microgaming and this new slot is now widely available in the real money mode and in the free play demo mode.
Speaking about this new slot just a couple of days before it officially arrived in casinos on Wednesday 7th September 2016 was the Head of Product Channels at Microgaming, Neill Whyte. He said, “We’ve been eagerly awaiting Jim’s El Dorado adventure, and now the game is ready to launch, we are very excited. This character-led game is visually stunning and combines a set of proven features, such as the multiplier trail.”
He continued, “We know operators are excited by this game and we believe Jungle Jim – El Dorado is all set to become a long-term player favourite.” This game has 5 Rolling Reels™ and 25 winning paylines and the Multiplier Trail can boost line wins by 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, or 5X (during normal play) and by 3X, 6X, 9X, 12X, or 15X (during the Free Spins Bonus).
The Wild Symbol is the Jungle Jim Logo and the Scatter Symbol is the Stone Calendar. The Wild Symbols can land on any of the reels and the Scatter Symbols can only ever show up on the first three reels starting from the left (reels 1, 2 and 3). 10 Free Spins will instantly be awarded when at least one Scatter Symbol shows up on all of those first three reels and the top prize that you can play to win on this game is worth up to as much as 92,000.00 coins.
The biggest online casino win in recent times occurred on Sunday 28th August and it is now recognised as the largest progressive jackpot ever paid out on a mobile device. The lucky winner, player D.P., netted a cool €7,968,311.26 which works out to approximately CA$11,678,082.54 and he was playing on a famous Mobile Slot Machine called Mega Moolah.
The Head of Casino at Microgaming, John Quinn, commented on this huge win, saying, “To now claim the largest ever mobile jackpot win is very pleasing. On behalf of everyone at Microgaming, congratulations to D.P. on this mammoth mobile win.” You can read the comments in full over on the official Microgaming website.
