Chill At North Pole In Microgaming Online Slots

April 28, 2016

As the thermometer readings soar, the colder climates become more and more attractive. And there can be nothing colder than the Polar regions. To help take your mind of the summer heat, online casino software providers have created polar themed online slot games. This article reviews two very different online slots from Microgaming that can be played at online casinos like Golden Riviera, All Slots and Jackpot City.

Polar Pioneers provides a realistic experience of this harsh region with the reels completely embedded in snow. The online slot game also lauds the courageous explorers who ventured there by making the explorer the wild symbol. The explorer awards the top line payouts as well. The payout for five such symbols on an active payline is 15,000 coins, making Polar Pioneers a high variance slot game suited for aggressive online casino players. The other polar themed symbols on the reels are huskies, ship, snow boots, compass and ice pick. The low payout symbols are playing card icons frozen in ice. The free games feature is activated by three or more huskies symbols appearing anywhere on the reels. But even if you land two scatter symbols you get to play the 2nd Chance feature. The reels with the scatters are held fixed and the remaining reels spin again to give you another chance to get the third scatter. The feature awards 10 free games at doubled payouts. Polar Pioneer also includes the standard Microgaming gamble game.

Polar Bash has the animals of the region partying and adds a comic and cheerful touch far removed from the actual unwelcome environment. The vibrant background music heightens the party atmosphere. The Polar Bash logo awards the top line payout of 12,000 coins for five-of-a-kind combination. The high paying symbols are the polar animals such as polar bear, huskie, walrus, whale and penguins. The polar bear is seen in a Party Animal t-shirt and the huskie has obviously has had too much to drink. The low paying symbols are snowman, igloo and cocktail. There are two scatter symbols and both trigger bonus features. Three or more fish symbols on adjacent reels trigger the Ice Fishing Bonus. 15 fishing holes appear on the second screen. You have to pick three of them to win random bonus credits. The North Pole sign activates the free games feature. You will be awarded 25 free spins in which all payouts are doubled. The free spins can be retriggered.
