Microgaming to Launch Nuclear 9s at Casinos Online

0 Comments   Email   Print

March will be a month of sequels at Microgaming online casinos. The two online slot games announced for release are additions in an existing series of games. One of these games is Old King Cole, which belongs to the Rhyming Reels series. The other slot machine is Nuclear 9s, which will add to the Power Spins series.

Nuclear 9s was preceded by Atomic 8s in February 2012 and earlier by Sonic 7s in 2011 in the Power Spins series. Like its predecessors, Nuclear 9s is a five reel video slot with three rows of symbols across the reels and 9 paylines. The maximum total bet per spin is 90 coins. There is no progressive jackpot, but the top fixed jackpot payout in the base game with maximum bet pays 50,000 coins.

The core of the symbols remain the same as the earlier games in the series, which includes the typical classic slot symbols of bell, cherries and bars. But in Nuclear 9s the underlying color is a deep green, like the luminescent radioactive glow seen in Hollywood sci-fi movies. The Nuclear logo takes over as the wild symbol from the Atomic logo. It is the simplest of wild symbols, but looking at the earlier releases in the Power Spins series, this does not come as a surprise. It does help in building winning combinations and accumulating payouts. The atom, with electrons spinning round the nucleus, is the scatter symbol and offers the scatter payouts that are multiplied by the total bet.

The highlight of Nuclear 9s is the Power Spins mode, which can be optionally activated by the player. Though the player is given a choice, it makes no sense wagering on Nuclear 9s without activating this rewarding feature. As in the earlier games in this series, activating Power Spins involves enabling all nine paylines and adding three times the current line bet to the stake. The beauty of the Power Spins games is that the benefit offered in each game is different. This prevents boredom from setting in, even though the styling of the game is similar. In Nuclear 9s the Power Spins feature dissolves all symbols in winning combinations and new symbols cascade to take their place. Again if there are winning combinations the process repeats. And this is not all. Each time the process repeats the payout multiplier increases by 1.

Power Spins Nuclear 9s will be live at all Microgaming online casinos early in March 2012. CasinoAdvisor recommends Jackpot City, Golden Riviera, Platinum Play and Mummys Gold. Meanwhile players can try and figure out the adjective Microgaming will use with 10s, when it releases the next slot game in the Power Spins series.
