Online Casino Takes Big Steps Forward

There's a buzz of excitement around Jackpot City, precipitated by the arrival of two new slots and the introduction of the Mega Moolah progressive to Jackpot City Mobile. The new online slots - Octopays and Break Away - are the latest creations from Microgaming, the internet's champion casino game developer.

Octopays and Break Away are both fixed odds slots. This means fewer fancy bonus features and more fixed ways to win. This is combined with the modern sophistication one expects from a Microgaming video slot in the year 2012. The result is cutting-edge audio and graphics, silky smooth animations, and plenty of winning combinations.

Octopays is 5-reel slot with an underwater theme. All the action takes place on the ocean floor with 243 different ways to win. The symbols include a treasure chest, a baby octopus, a ship's anchor, a moray eel and a giant legendary sea monster: the Kraken. The baby octopus serves as the wild symbol. The free spins feature is where you're most likely to make your money. If you bet max you could win a payout of 290,000 coins.

This is an ice-hockey themed slot similar to Octopays in that it has 5 reels and 243 ways to win. Break Away does come with scatters, bonus rounds and stacked wilds. The emphasis, however, is still very much on those winning combinations, with multiple payouts possible on just one spin.

Users of iOS and Android mobile devices can now play Microgaming's biggest progressive jackpot game at Jackpot City Mobile. At the time of writing the Mega Moolah prize pool was a stunning $6.7 million and growing.
