Microgaming Adds to QuickFire Platform

By Rick Balding July 31, 2011 Casino Games

It appears from the media advisories released by Microgaming that it is for now focusing on introducing innovative online casino games in its QuickFire portfolio. In July Microgaming added Hexaline and Multi-Player Premier Roulette to the growing list of QuickFire games and the advisory for August says that more games will be added. Microgaming already has over 500 casino games in its Download platform, which is much more than any other online gaming software provider.

The first of the new games releasing next month is Triangulation. The Microgaming advisory says, "Triangulation takes the features of a traditional slot game and incorporates them into an electrifying new game." The objective of Triangulation is to complete a chain of matching adjacent colored triangles anywhere on the triangular grid. Once the chain is formed and the players receive their payouts then the real excitement begins. All the winning triangles are removed and replaced by new ones. This offers more chances of winning and without adding to the amount staked. If three or more Bonus symbols appear anywhere on the grid then the Swap Out Bonus Game is triggered. The player can covert three triangles into Wild symbols, thereby possibly receiving big wins. Triangulation will be available on Microgaming's Flash platform in addition to QuickFire.

The next new casino game Spingo will also be available on QuickFire and Microgaming's Flash platform according to the advisory just released. Spingo is an innovative table game and is based around a bingo-style draw machine. In Spingo numbered bingo balls are drawn onto a roulette style wheel. A number of different bets have been offered to the players in order to make the game interesting. Players can bet on numbers from 1 to 10 and a selection of colors. These bets can be placed either separately or as a combination. Spingo will also be visually appealing. It will feature a unique 3D wheel and realistic ball movement and hence "players can have more fun and more chances of winning big money".

Microgaming is not neglecting its Download platform entirely. For quite some time Multi-Player Wheel of Wealth was the only multi-player slot game in the Microgaming portfolio. A few months back it added the Australian themed slot game Multi-Player No Worries. In August the third multi-player game Multi-Player Isis will go live. Isis is well known to Microgaming players as a stand alone video slot and also as a component of the Mega Moolah network. Multi-Player Isis will allow players to experience a community environment with a number of players participating in the same game. A chat facility will allow all the players within a room to socialize and share their excitement. All players in the room can share the fruits of the bonus round, should one player trigger it.
