New slot on the way to Microgaming operators

Players at Microgaming online casinos are in for a treat this week with the release of a new 5 reel, 243 Ways-to-Win video slot titled The Finer Reels of Life.

Themed on the affluent lifestyle of the rich and famous, the graphics on The Finer Reels colourfully depict all the trappings and the luxurious surroundings of the super-wealthy, presenting an opulent and lavish background to a smooth-running and fast online slot.

There are less pay-line constraints on this slot, which instead offers up to 243 ways to win. Symbols need simply be aligned left to right anywhere on the reels to win.

Bonus features include Wild Celebration triggered randomly in the main game with up to 5 Wild reels, and the Finer Features, which awards Free Spins and is triggered by 3 or more of Bonus Star scatters landing anywhere on the reels. With each entry to this feature the player gets to unlock more of the finer things in life.

The include Coffee & Chocolate, Wine & Cheese, Whiskey and Cigars and Champagne & Diamonds, each of which has its own special and escalating rewards in the form of retriggering Free Spins with Multipliers, Wild Wine awards which transform random symbols into additional Wilds, Burning Wilds, which burn up random symbols turning them to 2x and 3x Wild Multipliers and an explosive Rolling Reels feature at up to a 5x multiplier.

For the super-achievers there’s the chance to win through to Gold Status, with a system of achievement rewards that enables the player to attain Gold Pay Table status and track rewards.

The game is expected to debut in both Flash and Viper formats this week.
