More September online slots

September is already proving to be a bumper month for new online games (see previous  reports) and the trend continued this week with news of new slots from Genesis, Games Warehouse, Microgaming and Realistic Games.

Genesis has launched Journey to the West, a 5 Reel/25 Line Fixed lines slot game featuring bonus opportunities that include Free Spins, Pick a Box and a Second Screen Game in addition to the usual array of multipliers, stacked wilds and scatters.

The claimed RTP on the game is 96.21 percent, and the theme is based on an ancient Chinese fable about an epic and adventurous journey made by the legendary monk Tang and his disciples in their quest to retrieve Holy Scriptures.

According to the rather macabre legend, Monk Tang is the reincarnation of an arhat, or a saint in the Buddhist religion. Anyone who consumes the flesh of an arhat acquires his power and immortality, which makes Tang’s trip considerably more perilous as evil-doers try to ambush his party.

The good monk is protected by associates Monkey King, Pig, and Sandy, each with unique superpowers which are replicated in the game.

Games Warehouse has also been busy, launching the online slot Fishing Impossible, a 5 reel, 40 pay-line game in which players pursue a wild selection of fish from a choice of four imaginative ponds: Dinosaur Fish in the Pond Time Forgot, Mutant Fish in the Toxic Pools, Pirate Fish in the Pirate Graveyard, and Robot Fish in the Planet of the Robot Fish.

The Pond Time Forgot is available from the first play, whilst Toxic Pools are unlocked after 3 fish species have been collected. The Pirate Graveyard is unlocked after 9 fish species have been collected, and finally the Planet of the Robot Fish is unlocked after 15 fish species have been caught.

This game has variable RTP depending on the achievements collected – the average RTP ranges between 93 percent and 96.0 percent.

Reading-based Realistic Games enters September with the launch of four new instant win pull tab titles.

Among the games putting a colourful spin on the familiar formula are Sunset Reels and Shore Thing, which allow players to test their luck against bright beach-themed backdrops.

The Snakes & Ladders pull tab draws on the classic board game to give players a fresh and yet familiar experience, while the animal-themed adventure Go Wild on Safari completes the collection.

Each new title benefits from a unique pay-table which includes additional Wild symbol multipliers, ensuring the player has plenty of choice.

Built on Realistic’s HTML5 games framework, and available on phone, tablet and desktop, the four additions to the company’s instant win portfolio allow betting and gaming brands to offer a simple pick-up-and-play product to their customers.

Realistic Games CEO, Andy Harris, said: “We place a great deal of focus on listening to the feedback of our operating partners, and these new releases meet their demand for an innovative and accessible game type that is extremely simple to understand and play.

“There are more of these fun games on the way. They are the perfect multi-vertical product which appeal as much to a bingo player, as they do a sportsbook customer looking for a quick snack between bets.

“The mechanic is a simple ‘pull tab’ which is removed to reveal a win. After selecting their total bet value, players simply press the start button before pulling back the four tabs with a swipe of the finger or drag of a mouse.

“They can press the start button again to reveal all four lines at once, or alternatively make use of the Autoplay option.”

The release of the four new games follows on from Realistic Games’ original pull tabs Sunken Treasure, Pot Luck, Golden Koi, and Diamonds & Rubies. These were recently upgraded to HTML5 only, multi-channel products.

Microgaming will be taking advantage of the coming Halloween season with an appropriately-themed and titled game based on the horror classic written by John Carpenter, which inspired a slew of movies, comics and merchandising 40 years ago and remains the horror/scary one to beat even today.

The Isle of Man developer secured the rights to produce a slot based on the classic tale earlier this year and has been working hard on doing the genre justice as thematic support for a multi-featured game.
