Virgin Online Casino Outer Space Slot

Outer Space is the theme of the new television marketing campaign at Virgin Casino and therefore it is hardly surprising that Virgin Casino has selected an outer space themed slot from Microgaming as its latest addition. This game is available to players at Virgin Casino through Microgaming's new Quick Fire platform.

The new online slot is called What on Earth. Virgin Casino says "Invaders from outer-space have come down to shower you with riches in this quirky 9-line slot with 3 great bonus rounds." The bright colored caricature symbols make an instant impression. Many of them are spaceships of different kinds. But the best symbols are fruits doubling up as heavenly bodies. The sun is an orange and the striped water melon signifies Jupiter.

The Beam 'em Up bonus game is triggered when scattered spaceships appear on adjacent reels. Players have to beam up the Beam 'em Up logo to participate in the contest. Players have to beam up as many earthlings as they can before the timer runs out. They are awarded credits depending on how successful they have been. Alternatively the player may beam up a Globe and activate the Destination bonus game. In the Destination bonus game the player selects one of four destinations. He also selects another alien to reveal the multiplier value. If the player finds one of the special earthlings in their hometown then he wins up to 400 times the total bet.

The wild and scatter symbols do not follow the normal rules. Coming from outer space they probably have rules of their own. The What on Earth Logo is the wild symbol. It substitutes for the Port Hole and Console symbols and not for the other symbols of the game as is the usual practice. The Shuttle, Saucer and Rocket symbols are the scatter symbols. They do not need to appear in a line on an enabled payline to win. But they have to be scattered on adjacent reels, provided three or more of the same symbols appear. The Shuttle and Saucer symbols only appear on reels 3, 4, and 5. The Rocket symbol appears on all the reels.

What on Earth is a nine payline video slot game. Players can wager up to five coins per payline. The coin denomination varies from $0.01 to $1.00. Hence the maximum line bet works out to $5.00 and the maximum total bet works out to $45.00. The biggest line payout is 7,500 coins, which translates to $37,500 at maximum bet.

As such Virgin Casino operates on the WagerWorks platforms, but of late has been adding Microgaming online slots at a hectic pace. Some of the other Microgaming titles include Hellboy, The Osbournes and Big Kahuna. Virgin Casino is licensed by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission.
