Microgaming Announces Karate Pig Online Slot

The leading online casino software provider Microgaming has already announced its new slot game that will go live early in April. The slot game is titled Karate Pig. The Microgaming advisory says that it is of the comic martial arts genre, which means that it should have a large fan following. The highlight of Karate Pig is a multilevel bonus game.

The Karate Pig logo is the wild symbol and it can appear stacked on the reels, which means greater payout potential. It also offers the highest fixed jackpot of 2,000 coins. The Karate Pig and some other characters offer lower payouts. Instead of the high value card symbols Microgaming has used some exquisitely crafted icons from Japanese culture, which include a laughing Buddha and a bonsai tree. This increases the thematic appeal of the game.

The Karate Pig in his avatar as a sushi chef triggers the bonus game when three or more symbols appear scattered on the reels. The players can select one of the two bonuses on offer. Both are related to culinary skills and are titled Pork Chop Bonus and Hammer Bonus. Each involves picking an item from the six displayed and receiving great prizes. Each time the bonus is triggered the player receive a higher ranking karate belt. When the player wins the seventh belt, the black one, he will enter the Final Showdown bonus. In this bonus the Karate Pig will confront a monstrous opponent. The Karate Pig has three rounds to defeat his opponent and gain generous rewards for the player. The bonus games are not only about accumulating payouts. Microgaming has excellent graphics that make these games a visual treat.

Compared to the multi level bonus game on the second screen the free spins bonus is a simple affair. The free spins logo appearing anywhere on reels 1 and 5 at the same time trigger the free spins bonus round. The players are awarded 15 free spins at doubled payouts. The free spins can be retriggered. Though simple, this bonus round is equally lucrative. The players can win up to 800,000 coins.

Karate Pig is a five-reel video slot game with 40 paylines. The maximum coins that can be wagered per payline are 5, leading to a maximum per spin of 200. The coin size varies from 0.01 credits to 0.50 credits. Karate Pig does not offer a progressive jackpot or the trademark Microgaming gamble game. But with so many features on offer it is doubtful that these will be missed by players at Microgaming online casinos. Karate Pig will be live in April at online casinos like All Slots, All Jackpots, Platinum Play and River Belle.
