Online gambling software provider Microgaming‘s latest blockbuster themed online slot Game of Thrones is now live, answering the keen player anticipation since the licensing deal was announced earlier this year.
Based on the hit HBO series which has captivated the hearts of fans across the globe, the company’s multi-featured Game of Thrones online slot has been launched simultaneously online and on mobile.
The new game is a 5×3 reel game available in both 243 ways-to-win and 15 lines. Set in the world of Westeros and beyond, the game centres on the four great Houses: Baratheon, Lannister, Stark and Targaryen. Players are given the opportunity to serve one of the Houses during the free spins selection feature, triggered by three scatter (Iron Throne) symbols.
Players can enter the fury of House Baratheon over eight free spins. With a 5x multiplier, this royal free spins feature boasts the highest multiplier of the game, while the Baratheon high symbol is stacked three high throughout the reels.
House Lannister offers handsome rewards for loyalty. Players can enjoy some Lannister gold with 10 free spins at a 4x multiplier, complete with the roaring Lannister high symbol stacked four deep.
Players can run north with the Direwolves in House Stark’s free spins feature and lay claim to 14 wintery free spins, complete with a 3x multiplier and reels adorned with Stark high symbols stacked five high.
Finally, wins can take flight in the House Targaryen’s feature. Players can soar with the dragons for 18 free spins at a 2x multiplier, whilst stacked Targaryen high symbols swoop past.
The adventure continues for players if they choose to embark on a quest of epic proportions with the gamble feature. The flip of a rare Braavosi coin will decide their fate, and whenever the coin lands in their favour, they’ll advance along a trail map featuring a host of creatures that prowl Westeros and Essos.
In addition, the online slot boasts stacked wilds across all reels and if two scatter symbols land anywhere on the reels, a fiery dragon’s egg will appear, offering players a random prize.
Roger Raatgever, CEO of Microgaming, comments: “We revealed our licensing agreement for the Game of Thrones series in February, and anticipation for the game’s launch has been building ever since. Such is the power of the Game of Thrones brand!
“With the game going live today to both Microgaming and Quickfire operators, online and on mobile, players can now enter the fantastical world of Game of Thrones with our new online slot!”
