Chalk up another
of Microgaming's
video slots
going mobile
with the help of
Spin3 -
Microgaming's
exclusive
partner for
developing cell
phone compatible
online casino
games. Adding to
their portfolio
of mobile
Roulette,
Blackjack,
3-Card Poker,
Jacks or Better,
Keno, scratch
cards and seven
video slots
(including three
progressive
jackpot games),
Spin3 recently
put the
finishing
touches on the
popular
Thunderstruck
slot machine.
One of the first
online casinos to pick up mobile Thunderstruck is
the UK based Ladbrokes Casino (poised to launch the game
later this month). With this latest
addition, Ladbrokes now boasts fifteen different games
in their mobile casino (every game that Spin3 has
developed), which in the mobile gaming sector, is a
diverse lineup. The slots alone could very keep the most
active of players busy.
Thunderstruck
now takes a seat next to the other top performing
Microgaming slots gone mobile, including Major Millions,
Fruit Fiesta, Treasure Nile and Tomb Raider. In short,
Thunderstruck if a 5-reel, 9-payline bonus video
slot offering free spins and a gamble feature. It will
take up to forty-five coins (making the betting scale as
diverse as they come), and will multiply payouts when
multiple "Thor" symbols (that's the blonde-headed
Viking) are hit on a single payline and act as a Wild.
Spin3's Matti
Zinder said he is confident Thunderstruck will
prove to be a popular mobile video slot due to its
success as a standard online casino slot, not to mention
the fact that video slots in general make for excellent
mobile games. They are fast and simple to play - and
that's the way to go in the mobile gaming world.
On another note,
Spin3 has also updated it's GameWire platform so that it
is compatible with yet another Smartphone - the
BlackBerry (version 4.3 or advanced). Already supporting
just about every cell phone make and model currently in
use (including the iPhone), Spin3 has shown a strong
commitment to the Smartphone sector. They have further
diversified their platform by making it available in
nine different languages and supporting geo-specific
payment systems. UK Vodafone customers can even purchase
online casino credits via their phone bill.
If you want to get
to know Spin3's mobile casino games, they can be played
for free at leading licensees -
