Usually when Microgaming studios announce that we will be getting more than one game in a month, it means that a couple of them will no doubt be copies of some of their past greatest hits.
Like how the Fruit Vs Candy slot is just the Lost Vegas game but with a new theme.
But, not this time apparently. This time we get 3 new Microgaming mobile slots, each very different one to the other.
Here’s what we know, and which of these holds the most excitement.
The 720 ways to win Pollen Party slot (1st March)
How long have we been getting online slots from Microgaming? 1994. That’s how long.
So we were surprised when we found out that their latest slot machine Pollen Party will be their very first 720 ways to win game.
- 10 Free spins no deposit on Piggy Riches
- 250% up to £€$250
- A further 3 deposit bonuses
Why surprised? Because IGT have been pumping out these babies for years; none more popular than the Siberian Storm slot, but we could rattle off a list a mile long; Prowling Panther, Sushi Yum Yum Extra Wasabi, Day of the Dead, Fire Horse…
The list goes on.
You’d think that would mean that Microgaming would have followed suit a little sooner than 2017.
Still, better late than never?
The theme fits the reels perfectly
That said, we are surprised that this is the first ‘Bee’ 720 ways to win slot around, seeing as these hexagonal reels are perfect for the theme.
Though, in all honesty, the graphics and animations are a little… lackluster? Hardly fitting of the great animations we’ve found in other Micorgaming games, even recent ones like that Tarzan slot game.
David Reynolds, Games Publisher at Microgaming, commented: “March brings an incredible selection of games, each offering something unique. Pollen Party is our first game to use a 720 way, variable reel design, and brings two dynamic features for players to enjoy.”
That said, this Pollen Party machine does promise 2 scatters and two bonus features, including a pick me bonus and free spins.
So if they come through and you can win big, we will forgive the lazy theme.

Find fortune in the Emperor of the Sea slot (1st March)
Strangely enough, this is the one slot we are most excited to play.
Yeah. We know, it kinda looks like absolutely every single other Asian slot theme out there.
But the theme is popular for a reason. And more importantly, this one has some interesting features that promise some great big wins.
- 11 Free spins no deposit on Starburst
- 100% up to £€$200
- Get £€$10 Free on 1st deposit
“Emperor of the Sea is another important addition to our Asian-themed games collection and combines both mythical and fortune elements from the popular culture, in an engine that is crafted to extend gameplay.” Continued David Reynolds, Games Publisher at Microgaming
No, we’re not talking about the fact that you can choose to play on 38, 68, or 88 paylines, all numbers representing ‘fortune’ in Asian culture.
Personally, unless it affects the numbers, we like to play the max paylines every time. But the full effect of the payline change won’t be obvious till this Emperor of the Sea slot comes out later on this year.
Its all about those beautiful stacked wilds
Every time someone says ‘stacked wilds’ to us, our ears perk up. Mostly because that can usually mean huge wins, or it can be just for show.
In this case, we think it’s more of the latter, seeing as you get stacked wilds across all five reels, even during the base game.
But the fast paced action continues in the free spins, where you get bigger and bigger stacks of wilds on each spin, made popular with Aristocrats slots such as 50 Dragons and then made awesome in games like Golden Legend.
Add cascading reels, which could make the free spins last forever, and we think this is the one to watch in March.

Sexy times ahead in the Heat Is On Slot (22nd March)
The last of March’s offerings combines high speed car chases, with big breasted ladies… because why not? Life is short.
Meet the elusive cat burglar Selina in her quest for the city’s bank’s gold reserve. Hot on her heels is none other than office Jean, who clearly shops at the same store.
You know, the one which thinks that double D’s can fit in an A cup outfit? Yeah, that slot theme store.
We get it. It has a certain appeal. It’s the kind of cartoony sexiness that Microgaming have done so well in the past, with the likes of the Beach Babes game or Bikini Party slot.
- Mystery No deposit bonus of 10 free spins to £€$25 free cash
- 200% up to £€$100 Bonus
- 50 Free Spins on 1st Deposit
Not quite as exciting as the others?
Look, we’re not saying that The Heat is On slot won’t be worth playing; just that out of all of them it is the one that looks the most generic.
However, our two main ladies might heat things up as you get not one but two wild symbols over these 45 paylines.
More intriguing seems to be the real possibility of getting more than one set of free spin bonus, as the scatter symbol appears stacked on reel two and three during the bonus games.
And everyone knows that more free spins generally means more wins.
David Reynolds, Games Publisher at Microgaming, continues: “The Heat is On is a perfectly balanced game which combines a wild feature that provides players with a steady base game experience and a free spins feature that has explosive potential. There’s something for everyone in March’s game add on.”
You heard it here first. Things are getting hot over at Microgaming this March.
Though if you can’t wait till then, there plenty of mobile slots with free spins and wilds to get you hot under the collar over at Rizk casino. All you need to do is spin their wheel and get a mystery no deposit bonus instantly.
