The much talked about online slot game Battlestar Galactica has finally gone live at Microgaming online casinos. And it lives up to the hype. The introductory clip gives a bit of the background to the story. Cylons were created by humans, but they evolved and rebelled. Battlestar Galactica carries humanity’s last remnants and is engaged in an epic struggle against the Cylons. The clip also introduces the members of Battlestar Galactica, who appear as symbols on the reels, and the features of the slot machine.

Those who have followed Battlestar Galactica will recognize the characters, but for the others the names have been provided. Microgaming has introduced an innovative Ranking feature in this branded slot game. With every spin of the reels, the Experience Bar at the bottom of the screen heads to the next rank. When the Experience Bar is full, players advance to the next rank and this unlocks more video content from the Battlestar Galactica television series. Initially the animations are restricted to the symbol space, but later they appear across the reels. Therefore the pleasure of playing increases.

Microgaming has included special symbols in the slot game. The spaceship symbol awards the highest line payouts. Three or more of these symbols anywhere on the reels trigger 15 free spins at tripled payouts. The free spins cannot be retriggered. The Battlestar Galactica logo is the wild symbol. It can appear stacked on reel 1 during the base game and the free spins.

In the Normal Mode the Ion Storm feature can appear randomly and turn up to five reels wild. Free spins cannot be triggered during the Ion Storm feature. The game can switch from Normal Mode to Run Mode randomly at any time. During the Run Mode the symbols start paying from right to left, in addition to the usual left to right. The Faster Than Light logo may appear on the middle reel and turn any high value card symbol into a mystery symbol and result in additional wins. When in the Run Mode, the game can randomly convert to the Fight Mode. Spacecraft fly across the reels turning random symbols into wilds. The wild symbols can split into two and create more winning combinations. Five additional free spins can be awarded in the Run Mode.

Battlestar Galactica has the Microgaming 243 ways to win feature. The minimum total bet is 30 coins and the maximum total bet is 300 coins. The coin size is 0.01 credits. As payout table combinations are achieved the payouts get marked in gold on the table. Thus the player can track his progress. Battlestar Galactica is live at all Microgaming online casinos. CasinoAdvisor recommends Spin Palace, All Slots, Golden Riviera and Platinum Play.
