Game of Thrones

Having struck up an exclusive deal with HBO back in February, Microgaming finally released Game of Thrones video slot on desktop and mobile on 1st December 2014. And while 15-line game is also available in top online casinos, we will review the one housing a 243 Way Wins feature seeing as it is likely to prove much more popular among casino gamers, who are taken on an amazing journey to Westeros, where four noble houses battle for the Iron Throne of Seven Kingdoms.

Casino gamers should be used to the 243 payline structure by now given that most Microgaming slots released since 2013 utilise said scheme. This means that for a price of 30 coins per spin, you will receive payouts each time three or more identical icons are found anywhere on adjacent reels, starting from the left. Game of Thrones Logo is Wild here, substituting for all symbols except for Scatter in base game and Free Spins. Wild appears Stacked on all reels, usually covering all three positions on a single reel, thus improving your winning chances. Another positive is that three or more Wilds on a payline award a payout as well.

As we have already mentioned, minimum wager stands at 30 coins per spin, which is a small price to pay for having access to a plethora of winning opportunities. There are just two coin denominations on offer – $0.01 and $0.02, while players can stake between 1 and 10 coins per payline. Autoplay and Gamble options are supported. Game of Thrones players cannot exactly earn a fortune in the base play, but line payouts are decent enough to keep you playing until those special features start occurring. Maximum coin jackpot is 5,000 and it is awarded when five Wild icons are located on an active payline, at a wager of 10 coins per line.

If you were hoping to see original characters from the TV series on the reels of Game of Thrones slot game, you may be a little disappointed, but badges of Baratheon, Lannister, Stark and Targaryen houses are in place to enhanced the gaming experience. The coveted Iron Throne also populate the reels, in addition to playing cards Ace, King, Queen and Jack.

Three or more Iron Throne Scatters appearing anywhere triggers the Free Spins Selection. It is up to the player to choose between four special bonus rounds, each representing one of the noble houses. Based on your selection, you can receive 8 free spins at a 5x multiplier, 10 free spins at a 4x multiplier, 14 free spins at a 3x multiplier or 18 free spins at a 2x multiplier. Game of Thrones launched on mobile on the very same day as the desktop version, and some would say the mobile game features even better visuals and more rewarding gaming experience. Game play, symbols and bonus rounds are obviously exactly the same, while the mobile version has a slightly different outlook and user interface.
