In the first weekend in May two Microgaming progressive jackpot online slots registered hits. They were not the huge hits that Microgaming usually makes news about. But small or big hits are welcome.

The first progressive jackpot was Treasure Nile, which was hit for $42,571. As its name suggests Treasure Nile is based in a theme of Ancient Egypt. It is a 5 reel 9 payline video slot. The symbols on the reels are Ancient Egyptian icons depicted boldly and colorfully. They include Ankh, Anubis, Boat, Cobra, Necklace, Pillar, Scroll, Sphinx and Wheat. Pyramids are the wild symbol and Scarab is the scatter symbol. Treasure Nile is a simple online slot that has no multipliers, no free spin rounds and no bonus games. It has a fixed coin denomination of $0.50 and players can wager only one coin per payline. The progressive jackpot is hit when 5 Mummy symbols line up on the 9th payline, provided it has been enabled. Hence in order to hit the progressive jackpot players have to wager $4.50 per spin. If the 5 Mummy symbols appear in any other enabled payline then the payout is 6,000. The average progressive jackpot over the last one year for Treasure Nile has been $70,262. Therefore this latest hit has been below par. In all Treasure Nile has paid out over $2.70 million in the last one year.

The second progressive jackpot online slot that registered a hit was Tunzamunni. It was hit for $79,100. Tunzamunni is even a simpler online slot game. It has 3 reels and 1 payline. It is a classic slot with the symbols on the reels consisting of White Seven, Red Seven, Blue Seven, 3-Bar, 2-Bar, 1-Bar and Space. There are no wild symbols or scatter symbols. Also there are no multipliers, no free spin rounds and no bonus games. There is a fixed coin denomination of $0.05, but players can wager up to 5 coins per line. Tunzamunni has a unique jackpot winning combination in that three different symbols have to line up on the reels. A white seven, a red seven and a blue seven in that order across the payline leads to the jackpot payouts. For the progressive jackpot players have to wager the maximum bet of $0.25. However this is not a big amount and hence many low rollers are attracted to this game. If this combination is reached with four coins wagered then the payout is 10,000 coins.

Both Treasure Nile and Tunzamunni can be played at all Microgaming online casinos.
