<h2>1. Attack on Retro (Triple Edge Studios &amp; Microgaming)</h2>
<p>
  Microgaming partners Triple Edge Studios have revolutionized the online gaming
  world through one feature called Hyperspins. This feature is present in their
  new game Attack on Retro, as well. Basically, the Hyperspins feature allows
  the player to re-spin reels separately for cash. Now, that feature alone
  doesn’t make Attack on Retro a great game, but its high variance with
  potential for wins of up to 5000x definitely does.
</p>
<p>
  This is a great looking game that’s set in the future as imagined in the
  1980s. Hence the name Attack on Retro. It’s got neon colors, flying cars,
  futuristic architecture, and robots. The main characters are Billy and Jesse,
  a couple of cyberpunks. Jesse’s got a multicolored mohawk popular in the 80s
  and Billy’s got that Johnny Lawrence (the bad guy from Karate Kid) look with a
  robotic Luke Skywalker arm (not that Star Wars isn’t popular now, but back in
  the 80s it was an absolute phenomenon). Billy and Jesse are this game’s Wild
  symbols. Other symbols include a Hoverboard (similar to the one in the Back to
  the Future films), a Robot Arm reminiscent of Nintendo’s infamous Power Glove,
  a Keytar (if that’s not an 80s icon, I don’t know what is), and, to top it all
  off, a Boombox. The music is a super groovy techno beat, the kind of tune that
  will keep you wired and focused on the game for the entire session.
</p>
<p>
  The two little robots that patrol the game’s side borders are components of
  the Random Wilds feature. If a win is hit and the robots are on the correct
  line, the feature activates. The robots invade the reels and are shot at with
  lasers. When the lasers hit a robot, it turns into a Wild. Free Spins are won
  by getting three Scatter symbols. You have a choice between two, five, or ten
  Free Spins. The more spins you take, the smaller the multiplier. Two Free
  Spins give you an x5 multiplier, five give x2 and ten give x1.
</p>
<p>
  Attack on Retro isn’t the breakthrough that Triple Edge Studios hoped it would
  be, but it’s definitely a step in the right direction. The RTP is good, the
  game’s high volatility keeps it from getting stale, and the graphics,
  gameplay, and sound make this online slot definitely worth playing.

<h2>2. Testament (Play’n Go)</h2>
<p>
  Testament is a thrash metal band formed in Berkeley, California in 1983.
  They’re considered one of the “big eight” along with bands Metallica,
  Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Exodus, Overkill, and Death Angel. They became
  popular during the second wave of the thrash metal scene that took place in
  the late 80s. Also known as members of the Bay Area Thrashers, a name for
  metal bands that concerted in and around San Francisco, Testament have a
  distinctive sound, smart lyrics, and an original take on metal music.
</p>
<p>
  Last February, Swedish gaming software provider Play’n Go has announced the
  release of the Testament slot game in March. The graphics and sound will
  reflect the band’s 2012 album entitled Dark Roots of the Earth. Although a
  playlist hasn’t been announced yet, all songs featured in the game will most
  likely be off the aforementioned album. Hopefully, some older Testament hits
  will be present as well. In any case, the tunes will most definitely be
  amazing.
</p>
<p>
  Set against the backdrop of a demonic temple filled with evil statues,
  cobwebs, and the titular dark roots, the game’s atmosphere is that of a gothic
  horror movie, similar to the American Hammer films popular in the 60s and 70s.
  You’d almost expect the infamous Count Dracula to creepily descend the dusty
  stone stairs of the temple.
</p>
<p>
  From the screenshots we’ve seen, the button layout is pretty standard. You can
  choose the value of your bet and then Spin. The game also has an Autoplay
  button, and undoubtedly a Set List button.
</p>
<p>
  The symbols here are Banshees, Demons, Swords and Shields, Dark Knights,
  everything you’d expect from a metal band themed slot game. The game’s
  features will be Cold Embrace which causes Wild symbols to freeze in place for
  the duration of the bonus, Dark Roots of the Earth which will make Wild
  symbols spread up or down to create more Wilds, and Throne of Thorns where
  reels expand to a 4-5-6-5-4 format. Testament also includes a Free Spin
  feature dubbed Rise Up Spins and it’s activated by getting three Scatter
  symbols on the reels.
</p>
<p>
  Testament is shaping up to be a fun game with a dark atmosphere. We are
  eagerly waiting for its release so that you can play it and rock out to the
  band’s terrific tunes!
</p>
<h2>3. Panther’s Reign (Quickspin)</h2>
<p>
  Given Quickspin’s reputation for producing some of the most visually appealing
  games in the online casino industry, it comes not as a surprise that Panther’s
  Reign is a graphics marvel. The slot game is set deep inside the lush Amazon
  Rainforest, in a grove overlooking a dazzling blue lake. Vibrant vines and
  thick roots decorate the foreground. Besides the enticing, yet subtle mystical
  melody that’s gently caressing your ears, you’ll also hear the magnificent
  music of the jungle – squeaks, squawks, shrieks, screeches, and stridulating.
  Quickspin started the development of the game after fires ripped through the
  Amazon last year in 2019. This is their tribute to the natural beauty and
  exotic animals of Earth’s so-called Lungs.
</p>
<p>
  Panther’s Reign is a five-reel, 50-line slot. You can wager between 0.10 and
  100 per spin. RTP is 96.25%.
</p>
<p>
  96.25%. Symbol-wise, this game includes the titular Panthers, plus Jaguars,
  Howler Monkeys, Parrots, and Frogs. The slot also has Wild symbols and Scatter
  symbols represented by stone rimmed ouroboros snake brooches with inlaid
  emeralds in their center. You’ll also find Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs, and
  Spades.
</p>
<p>
  The randomly triggered Wild Spray feature adds Wild symbols on random reels.
  You can get between three and ten wilds during the main game, and up to seven
  during the bonus.
</p>
<p>
  Free Spins are earned by landing three Scatters anywhere on the reels. You’ll
  receive an extra spin for every Ouroboros that lands on the reels. If you get
  a win during Free Spins, it will trigger a re-spin. All symbols of the winning
  combo are frozen in place while the rest spin again. If you hit another
  winning combination, you’ll get another re-spin. This stops once no new combos
  can be formed.
</p>
<p>
  Panther’s Reign is a graphically amazing online slot game with a decent RTP, a
  great soundtrack, and exceptional gameplay. The best part is that soon you’ll
  be able to play Panther’s Reign on WestCasino and experience the wild wonder
  of the Amazon Rainforest for yourself!
</p>
<h2>4. All Star Knockout (Northern Lights Gaming &amp; Yggdrasil)</h2>
<p>
  All Star Knockout is a product of the YGS Masters program, an Yggdrasil
  initiative that aims to bring together content from the online gaming
  industry’s leading studios. The purpose? To create the world’s best open
  gaming platform. The game itself is the creation of Northern Lights Gaming, an
  online gaming up-and-comer that prides itself on making the “best looking and
  playing” slots in the world. NLG, as gamers have come to know them, have more
  than earned the reputation of hitting homeruns with their games every time.
</p>
<p>
  Joining the YGS Masters program meant that NLG devs got their hands on all the
  creative freedom they could want. As a result, they’ve crafted an online video
  slot game that combines a bit of the old with a lot of the new. They took a
  classic theme and morphed it into an otherworldly game that not only looks
  great but could pay extremely well, too.
</p>
<p>
  All Star Knockout is a five-reel, 20 payline phenomenon with an impressive
  96.09% RTP score, and a 71.5 volatility rating. At the lowest stakes, you can
  spin the reels for as little as 0.20. By placing the max bet of 400, you
  unlock the largest payouts which can amass up to 4,500X.
</p>
<p>
  The symbols you’ll find here are Cherries, Oranges, Prunes, Lemons, KOs, and
  three differently colored Lucky Number Sevens.
</p>
<p>
  The slot has an interesting Gamble feature that has a 50% chance of giving out
  Free Spins. Just click the Gamble button on the left side of the screen and,
  depending on your stake, you’ll pay an amount for spinning the dial.
</p>
<p>
  Another novelty feature that this game brings to the table is the All Star
  Knockout bonus. To get you started, 12 stars will be added to the mix straight
  away. From there, any additional stars that spin into view will be randomly
  distributed across the boards. Once you’ve filled a board with ten stars, the
  All Star Knockout slot bonus is triggered. During this bonus, you’ll receive
  five Free Spins. But, before the reels kick into life, the knockouts come into
  play. Each award board features two symbols. When you fill that board and
  trigger the bonus, its symbols are knocked out of play. And fewer symbols mean
  more chances to win!
</p>
<p>
  Through Yggdrasil and NGL’s collaboration, this truly amazing slot game was
  born. The stunning graphics and innovative gameplay are enough to satisfy even
  to most seasoned players. Couple them with great payouts and awe-inspiring
  bonus games and you’ve got yourself a super slot to play! Check it out soon on
  WestCasino!
</p>
<h2>5. Wilderland (NetEnt)</h2>
<p>
  NetEnt is widely known as one of the world’s top casino game providers in the
  online gaming industry. This innovative casino brand was created in 1996 and
  since then it has succeeded in winning all the major awards that the industry
  has to offer. It’s released over 200 games up to this point and it really
  stands out for offering players quality and quantity. Games like Starburst,
  Guns N’Roses, and Gonzo’s Quest have delighted gamers around the globe and has
  made some of them rich beyond their wildest dreams.
</p>
<p>
  This March, NetEnt will release new game Wilderland and we are absolutely
  psyched! WestCasino loves all NetEnt games and we’re sure that we will feel
  the exact same way about Wilderland. Here’s what we know so far!
</p>
<p>
  Wilderland takes place within an enchanted wooden realm populated by fairies,
  elves, dryads, and all the woodland creatures that you could possibly imagine.
  Set against the backdrop of a feral elven village under an eternal starry
  night sky, the game’s five reels are being watched over by a living tree with
  glowing eyes and a heart that’s filled with magic. This mystical creature is
  also known as a dryad and legends say that it’s a powerful protector of the
  forest.
</p>
<p>
  It includes Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs, and Spades as its symbols, all crafted
  out of leaves. You’ll also find Elves, Foxes, Bows and Quivers, Magic
  Pendants, and Flower Bracelets.
</p>
<p>
  When two or more Wild symbols (W) appear next to each other in Activation
  Zone, the Forest Treasure Feature is triggered. This transforms the Wilds into
  one of four Walking Wilds symbols: Regular Wilds, Walking Wilds, Expanding
  Walking Wilds, and Walking Wilds with multiplier. The game also offers two
  types of Scatters: Regular Scatters and Scatter Walking Wilds. The latter are
  unique in the game and substitute for all symbols. When a stack of three
  Walking Wilds symbols disappears, the Magic Wand feature might make the
  disappeared Walking Wilds symbols reappear.
</p>
<p>
  In Free Spins, the Activation Zone covers all three rows, so there is a
  greater chance of creating clusters of wilds. Free Spins end when there are no
  Walking Wild symbols on the reels. As long as there are Walking Wild symbols
  on the reel, Free Spins carry on endlessly.
</p>
<p>
  Wilderland proves once again that NetEnt means business. It’s got a 96.16%
  RTP, 20 paylines, and presents the player with immense potential to win big
  money. It’s set to be released on March 24th, 2020. Keep your eyes peeled!
  It’s bound to appear on WestCasino the same day!

<p>Unbelievable tales from the world of gambling.</p>

Believe It or Not

<p><b><i>Ever since their inception, online casinos have tried to provide a gaming experience that closely replicates that of land-based casinos. Naturally, some aspects of brick and mortar establishments cannot be simulated through an internet connection, but gambling websites generally do a decent job of offering a realistic imitation. </i></b></p>
<p><b><i>The essential task of any online casino is to ensure that the games featured on their platforms behave in the exact same way that they would when playing at the tables. Since there are no actual cards being dealt, no real dice being rolled, and no real roulette wheels being spun, the conclusion of these actions have to be artificially reproduced via a software that online casinos use. Here’s where random number generators come into play. </i></b></p>
<p><b><i>Randomness is an integral part of casino games. Hence, random number generators are the heart of any online casino software. If you’d like to know exactly what random number generators are, keep reading this article.</i></b></p>
<div>
    <img src="https://api.westcasino.com/media/article/c414cf0a-867d-4c35-8fae-5ed79116cb37.jpg" />
  </div>
<p>Before we delve deeper into the subject matter, we have to mention that most modern online casinos now offer live dealer games that do not require random number generators. Real dealers moderate these games in the same way that they would in a land-based casino and stream the action to your computer through an interactive video feed. </p>
<h2>The Importance of Randomness</h2>
<p>When playing casino games, otherwise know as games of chance, luck determines whether you win or lose. This means that the outcome is invariably random which makes it impossible to predict with accuracy. </p>
[getstarted][welcomepack]
<p>In some games, such as blackjack, you can choose whether you hit or stand, and your actions directly impact the results. Make the right decisions and your overall chances of winning will be improved. However, the next card dealt will still be a mystery. Counting cards used to be an option, but now that the game is played with multiple decks, shuffling takes the randomness of each card dealt to a whole new level. </p>
<p>The games wouldn’t be very fun if you could predict their outcome every time, would they? In fact, they wouldn’t work at all. That’s the whole point of games of chance – unpredictability. Where’s the thrill without the risk of losing or the joys of winning?</p>
<h2>What is a Random Number Generator?</h2>
<p>Commonly referred to as RNGs, random number generators are computer programs that, you guessed it, generate random numbers. Each waking moment, they produce vast sequences of numbers, providing a single number or collection of numbers when the software dictates it. </p>
<p>Note that RNG-produced numbers won’t ever be truly random since computers must follow some sort of instruction or pattern. However, the most sophisticated RNGs create patterns that are utterly indecipherable by the human brain. For all intents and purposes, the generated numbers are completely random. </p>
<h2>How Online Casinos Use RNGs</h2>
<p>Through the use of graphics, online casino software displays the outcomes of simulated live casino actions on your computer screen. The outcomes must be produced by chance to reflect the randomness inherent in all casino games. </p>
<p>Whenever the software needs to replicate a random outcome, it communicates with the RNG. The number generated is fed into the software, each possible number being related to a possible outcome. </p>
<p>Take blackjack, for example. In a brick and mortar establishment, your next card would simply be dealt from the top of the deck. But in an online casino, there is no physical deck to deal cards from. This is when the RNG springs into action. It will provide a random number that determines which card you’ll receive. </p>
<p>We won’t bore you with the technical details of RNGs since you only need to know the gist of it. It’s worth mentioning, though, that RNGs are also used in land-based casinos. Video slots utilize them to determine which symbols appear on each spin, and video poker machines use them to determine which cards are dealt. </p>
<h2>Random Number Generators – Are They Fair?</h2>
<p>Casinos do not use random number generators to cheat. This is a common concert of online casino players, but it is largely unfounded. The main reason for utilizing random number generators is to ensure that the games are fair. Over time, the results of games should coincide with their true probabilities if the outcomes are randomly produced. </p>
<p>In theory, it’s possible for online casinos to program their software in a way that manipulates the numbers produced from an RNG, thus rigging the games. However, the truth is that they’ve no real reason to do that. Thanks to the house edge, the games are already in their favor. They will definitely have to pay out to some winning players, but they’ll still make money in the long run. </p>

Random Number Generators - A Detailed Explanation

<p><b><i>Play’N Go’s Joker series strikes again! The updated version of 2016’s Fire Joker hasn’t changed much. The Swedish game developer added an extra feature, a frozen dimension via a new symbol, and a greater winning potential. The core gameplay, however, remains the same. If you’re a fan of Fire Joker, you’ll definitely love Fire Joker Freeze.</i></b></p>
<div>
    <img src="https://api.westcasino.com/media/article/8366ca4d-14fe-484b-905b-4438ac878f2d.jpg">
  </div>
<p>The game is played on a 3x3 grid on a red, diamond-patterned background. Visually, it’s truly breath-taking if you’re into traditional slots. The same can be said about the music and sounds. You’re in for a funky tour-de-force. All this is eclipsed by the fast-paced reel-spinning action!</p>
<p>The default RTP is a bit more generous than the previous incarnation of the game – 96.18%. The volatility is medium, let’s say a 6 out of 10. Needless to say, you’ll get plenty of wins. On a single spin, you can gain up to 1000x your bet. Fans are gonna love that for sure. </p>
<p>Full-screen wins are guaranteed with this game, thanks to the stacking symbols. Winning combinations are formed of 3 matching symbols across 5 fixed paylines. </p>
<p>Let’s talk about the symbols. In Fire Joker Freeze, you’ll find the quasi-titular Ice Joker symbol. You’ll also encounter Xs, cherries, lemons, grapes, plums, BARs, stars, and 7s. The Ice Joker and the Fire joker are this title’s wild symbols. Land 3 of these on the grid, and you’ll win 100x your bet! </p>
[getstarted][welcomepack]
<p>There are many thrills to be experienced in Fire Joker Freeze. Symbols stack, spins are respinned, and the prize wheel will keep your adrenaline pumping. The Respins of Ice feature triggers when an Ice Joker symbol lands on a non-winning spin. The Ice Joker becomes locked in place and expands to cover all positions on its reel. Subsequently, all other reels are respun for another chance to win big. </p>
<p>If you fill the grid with the same pay symbol or the Ice or Fire Joker, you’ll trigger the Wheel of Fire and Ice. Also, if there are 2 stacks of the same symbol plus an Ice Joker on the third reel, that Ice Joker expands into a stack and automatically triggers the Wheel of Ice of Fire. </p>
<p>The wheel’s built with 4 overlapping circles, which display multipliers or snowflake symbols. Unless an Ice Joker triggers the other layers, only the inner circle spins. If 1, 2, or 3 joker stacks trigger the wheel, the other three layers start spinning. Land on a snowflake, and you’ll move up to the next levels, which contain bigger multipliers. The best that you can hope for is a 20x multiplier! </p>
<h2>Fire Joker Freeze Conclusion</h2>
<p>Play’N Go is famous for recycling old games under new names. Hey, if it works, it works. Players don’t mind, and neither do we. The quality never seems to disappoint. If you’re a fan of Fire Joker, you’ll be a fan of Fire Joker Freeze. It’s as simple as that. The Joker games rock. That’s a given. In this one, you’ll get more extra features and bigger multipliers. The best part is that you don’t even need to have played Fire Joker to appreciate Fire Joker Freeze. The gameplay is super intuitive. </p>

Fire Joker Freeze - Play'N Go's Brand-New Masterpiece

<p><b><i>Before we dive deep into the rules of one of the most popular card games in existence, let’s begin with a brief history of Blackjack. Where did it all start? Who invented it? Where did it get its name, and why is it so damn popular? Prepare yourself for a journey through the ages all the way back to late 17th century Spain where the first literary evidence of Twenty-One appeared.</i></b></p>
<div>
  <img src="https://api.westcasino.com/media/article/62526fef-1d7e-4599-8b04-95a321ba7fb8.jpg">
</div>
<h2>The Origins of Blackjack</h2>
<p>Some historians believe that Blackjack has its roots in an ancient Roman game played with wooden blocks instead of cards. However, the first time it was ever mentioned in a piece of writing was in 1601. The writer of the famous Don Quixote, Miguel de Cervantes, introduced the game in Rinconete y Cortadillo, a short story set in 1569 about two thieves on their way to Seville. Both main characters are expert cheats at the game Veintiuna which is Spanish for Twenty-One. It’s clarified in the book that the object of the game is to reach exactly 21 points.</p>
[welcomepack][getstarted]
<p>Miguel de Cervantes was infamous for his gambling, and even though the game may have originated from France, as certain historians claim, it’s clear that travelers have been playing Twenty-One all over Europe during the early 17th century. The game was a favorite at King Louis XV’s royal court. Even Napoleon, the famed military leader and French emperor was a huge fan of Vingt-et-Un. He'd celebrate victories by indulging in the profitable pastime.</p>
<p>At the dawn of the 18th century, North America would come to know and love Vingt-et-Un thanks to French colonists. It was played in the newly legalized gambling halls of New Orleans and later spread throughout the country like wildfire. When it finally reached Nevada, rumor has it that the local casinos dubbed the game Blackjack following a special promotion that paid 10:1 if you won with a Jack of Spades or Clubs and an Ace.</p>
<h2>The Rules of Blackjack</h2>
<p>History aside, let’s take a look at the rules. Blackjack is a seemingly straightforward game, but under its surface lies a complex maze of split-second decisions and psychological trickery. Before we get into that, however, we need to know the basics.</p>
<p>Let’s get one thing straight. Although the game is called Blackjack or Twenty-One, the goal is to get a higher total than the dealer without going over 21 or ‘bust.’ When you want another card, that’s called taking a hit. In a land-based casino, you’d actually say the words ‘hit me!’ or you’d tap your finger. You may take as many hits as you want as long as you don’t go over 21. When you’re pleased with the cards you have, you’ll want to click or tap the Stand button that’s standard in most online Blackjack games. The dealer must draw more cards when his hand amounts to 16 or less and stand on 17 or better.</p>
<p>When adding up your total, cards up to 9 are taken at face value. For example, a 3 of clubs or any other suit will be worth 3 points. 10s, Jack, Queens, and Kings are worth ten points. An Ace can be 1 or 11. A hand without Aces is called a Hard Hand. Say you get a 5 and a 9. That’s a hard hand. However, if you do have an Ace and a 5, your total will amount to either 6 or 16. The choice is yours. A hand with an Ace is called a Soft Hand. Since there are only four Aces in a deck, and even if the game is played with multiple decks, most hands will be hard hands.</p>
<h2>Double and Split</h2>
<p>Now that that’s out of the way, let’s talk about doubling and splitting. Unlike the dealer, you can double your bet once the cards are dealt but before you hit or stand. You will have to take exactly one more card and then immediately stand. If you get two cards of the same value, like a 6 and 6, and Ace and Ace, or a 10 and King, you can play that hand or choose to Split.</p>
<p>When you split, you make two new hands, each with the bet equal to your initial bet. The hands are composed of one of your duplicate cards and one new card each. Once split, each new hand will be played like usual against the same hand of the dealer with a separate win or loss. You can even split again if possible, up to three times per deal. Both Double and Split can only be done if you have enough money in your balance to increase your bet.</p>
<h2>Insurance</h2>
<p>This is a move you can make after the cards are dealt but before any other actions. If the dealer’s revealed card is an Ace (which gives the dealer a big chance for Blackjack), you can choose to place an additional bet, half of its original size. This bet is separate from the actual bet. If the dealer does not have Blackjack, the insurance is lost, and the game continues. If the dealer does get a Blackjack, however, you will win double (2 to 1) of your insurance. The dealer will still win the deal, but you will make up for the loss. Only use this as a last resort if you think there are many 10s left in the deck.</p>
<h2>Winning Strategies</h2>
<p>Alright, now let’s see what you can do to increase your chances of winning!
  For cards totaling 3 to 11 in your hand, always hit regardless of the dealer’s face-up card. Keep hitting until your total is 17 or higher. Keep in mind that this is not a full-proof plan. You’ll have to think on your feet when using this strategy. Even then, the dealer might get a Blackjack. Still, it’s worth a shot. Lady Luck favors the bold!
  </p>
<p>Always stand on 17 through 21 regardless of the dealer’s up card.</p>
<p>When you have a great hand, such as an Ace and an 8 or 9, always stand. Unless you get Blackjack, it doesn’t get any better than that. If your other card is 7 or lower, always hit since the Ace is either 1 or 11.</p>
<p>If you get a pair of 8s, 9s, or Aces, you should always split. In case you get a pair of 10s, simply stand. 20 is an amazing hand!</p>
<p>Well, that’s about it. Read the rules and strategies carefully and start playing! With this information, you’re bound to become a better Blackjack player. Good luck!

How to Play and Win at Online Blackjack – History, Rules & Strategy Guide

<p><b><i>The original Starburst was released back in 2013, and for many avid players, it’s still a hugely popular go-to game. Although it seems a little dated due to the emergence of higher volatility slots with more engaging rewards, Starburst still holds its own against the big titles of today. However, the end of an era is upon us, ladies and gentlemen. Here’s why! </i></b></p>
<p><b><i>Swedish game developer NetEnt has recently released Starburst’s highly anticipated sequel under the name Starburst XXXtreme. The software providing juggernaut has waited 8 long years to release this title, but was it worth the wait? Let’s find out! </i></b></p>
<div>
    <img src="https://api.westcasino.com/media/article/854f8a1b-cd82-410d-ab12-435036457fc6.jpg">
  </div>
<p>Visually, the game reminds the player of its predecessor and it’s played on a 5x3 grid with 9 fixed paylines instead of 10. Fans looking for major innovation are in for a treat. The paylines are the least of the changes found in Starburst XXXtreme.</p>
<p>Your bets range from €0.10 to €50 per spin and although the first game had low volatility, Starburst XXXtreme’s is set to ‘high’. There’s no more pay-both-ways feature. In this one, winning combinations only appear when at least three identical symbols land from the leftmost reel. Activating the XXXtreme Spins feature will make you forget about that, though, since you’ll be winning a lot anyway. </p>
<p>As for the pay table, the sequel uses the same 7 pay symbols as the original. You’ll see 5 sparkling gems as the lower value symbol, plus the 7s and Bars. These two last ones are worth 20 to 50 times your stake if you get a combo of five. And of course, wilds are vital to collecting coins. </p>
[getstarted][welcomepack]
<h2>Starburst XXXtreme Features</h2>
<p>It’s true that NetEnt has removed a bet line and decided that the remaining others will only pay in one direction, but you’d better believe that they’ve added something awesome to justify the ‘XXX’ in the title. The software provider added multipliers. The simplistic approach might not seem like much, but Starburst has always been simple. So, trust us when we say that these multipliers pack quite the punch. </p>
<p>As you first access the game, you’ll notice 2 XXXtreme Spins betting options:</p>
<p>•	1 guaranteed Starburst Wild on each spin that increases the stake by x10.</p>
<p>•	2 guaranteed Starburst Wilds per spin, leveling up the cost to 95x the base bet. </p>
<p>Naturally, it’s possible to land as many wilds on regular spins but they won’t come up as often. The RTP is slightly affected by the betting strategy, currently hovering between 96.26% and 96.45%.</p>
<p>Starburst Wilds are still the game’s focus. They appear on reels 2, 3 or 4 and when they land, they expand to cover their reels awarding a respin. Wilds are locked for respins, and if a new one hits, it’s also locked to award another respin. </p>
<p>In XXXtreme, each Starburst Wild also awards a multiplier of x2, x3, x5, x10, x25, x50, x100, or x150. During a respin sequence, the multipliers are added together if more than one wild lands. Plus, the value is applied to any bet line wins from the current spin or following respins. </p>
<p>The Random Wilds feature is another extra. As the name implies, it’s activated randomly after a spin or respin and adds between 1 and 3 Starburst Wild symbols to reels 2, 3 and 4. </p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Although you can’t see it from the beginning, the two Starburst games really are very different. In Starburst XXXtreme, the graphics and soundtrack are pretty much the same as in the good ole Starburst. However, those that said that NetEnt’s gone soft are in for a big surprise! The XXXtreme Spins drastically heighten the tension on every spin, but they’re pricey, so be careful. </p>
<p>The addition of multipliers provides an incredible experience and the outsized betting options are perfect for high rollers. Starburst Wild respins were already fun but coupled with the total possible multiplier of up to 450x, they make the game absolutely amazing. The win cap set by NetEnt is a whopping 200.000x your bet. It’s possible to get the win with a combination of max multipliers, stacked Bars, and respins. </p>
<p>Starburst XXXtreme definitely deserves its name since the game is indeed extreme on many levels. We’re happy to see that the spirit of the original slot game remains unaltered and we’re certain that if you give this sequel a try, you’re going to love it!

Starburst XXXtreme Slot Review

      >Play’N Go has recently released a brand-new slot game called Madame Ink
      that takes inspiration from real tattoo designs. The online slot’s
      realistic graphics have brought it to the forefront of the gaming
      industry. The tattoo theme is beautifully mixed with a spot-on Asian
      design that decorates the reels with enchanting and colorful artwork.

</div>
<h2>Madame Ink Look and Feel</h2>
<p>
  We’re in a Chinese bazaar. It’s raining and the wet cobbled street reflects
  the dim lights of the wind-rocked paper lamps hung carelessly above the wooden
  doors of the stores. A drum heavy-track accompanies the already mysterious
  atmosphere and puts the player in the mood for some gambling magic. The layout
  of the reels is simple yet mesmerizing with an interesting 3D effect that’s
  reminiscent of a cinema screen.
</p>
[getstarted][welcomepack]
<p>
  There’s nothing out of the ordinary regarding the interface. Bottom screen
  you’ll find an Information button in the form of an ‘I’, your Balance, Bet
  Value, the Spin button, and the Auto Spin button.
</p>
<h2>Symbols and Features</h2>
<p>
  Besides the marvelously drawn player card suits (Spades, Hearts, Diamonds,
  Clubs), punters will also encounter the tattoos that make this game such a
  novelty. These high-paying symbols include animals from Asian lore such as the
  Dragon, the Tiger, and the Stork. There’s also the Wild Ink bottle whose cap
  is a black dragon’s head. This Wild expands to fill the reels and substitutes
  for all other symbols except for the Scatter.
</p>
<p>Let’s talk features.</p>
<p>
  Madame Ink’s star feature must be Madame’s Mystery. Randomly, the entire
  center reel will be occupied by Madame’s Mystery reel, while several Mystery
  symbols will land on the others. Madame’s Mystery reel will then transform
  into a stack of matching tattoo symbols as the Mystery symbols do the same.
  Needless to say, you’re in a for a big win.
</p>
<p>
  The slot also has a Free Spins feature that’s triggered when at least three
  Scatter symbols land on the reels. You’ll be given three choices:
</p>
<p>1. 12 Free Spins with Wild Ink feature active on every Wild that lands.</p>
<p>2. 6 Free Spins with Madame’s Mystery feature on every spin.</p>
<p>3. 3 Free Spins with both features active.</p>
<p>
  The most profitable option is probably #2 but it all depends on your luck.
</p>
<p>
  Martin Zettergren, Play’N Go’s CPO, stated that: “It’s always important to
  approach a theme from a new angle, to move ahead of the competition and create
  a more distinctive experience for operators and their players. The artwork and
  the design are just one element of the game for players enjoy. Then you have
  the narrative of Madame Ink and her magical powers which gives a whole other
  aspect as well.”

  <b><i>Play’N Go is a Swedish company founded in 2004 in Växjö. Since its birth,
      the company aimed to provide users with a unique gambling experience.
      Because of their original approach to online casino game development,
      Play’N Go soon became an industry favorite among players.
    </i></b>
</p>
<p>
  <b><i>The company’s portfolio consists of over 100 games, substantially less
      than competitors like NetEnt or Microgaming, but their vision has always
      been about quality, diversity, and originality, not quantity. Although
      Play’N Go develops table games, video poker, scratch games, and online
      bingo, in this article we will discuss their main preoccupation, video
      slot games.
    </i></b>
</p>
<p>
  <b><i>March is a big week for both Play’N Go and WestCasino. We’re excited to
      launch a few of this amazing company’s awesome games this month. Before we

      WestCasino’s upcoming Play’N Go slot games!</i></b>

<h2>Sticky Joker</h2>
<p>
  The game is set to be released on March 26, 2020, but we do have a few
  insights and we’re eager to give you a sneak peek into the future. It’s a
  three-reel, five-payline classic slot with a 96.7% RTP. The game is set
  against a starry backdrop in a gold-rimmed frame. The layout is standard: at
  the bottom of the screen you’ll find and Info button explaining the game’s
  rules, Balance, Bet Value, a Spin button, and an Autoplay button.
</p>
<p>
  The symbols that you’ll encounter in Sticky Joker are cherries, plums, grapes,
  lemons, BAR symbols, and Lucky Number Sevens. The Joker is this game’s Wild
  Symbol. After hitting a Joker, it freezes in place and it triggers a re-spin.
  The more Jokers you get, the higher the win. This feature ends when the reels
  are filled with Jokers, or no more Jokers appear.
</p>
<p>
  Sticky Joker also has a Wheel of Multipliers feature. If four Wilds appear
  after a re-spin, the Wheel of Multipliers is triggered. You spin a pointer and
  you get a multiplier depending on where the pointer stops.
</p>
<p>
  We’re glad to see that classic slots are still being made. It’s a treat for
  traditionalists and new players as well. Sticky Joker is bound to be lots of
  fun and it’s got a pretty high RTP to boot. Keep your eyes peeled! It’ll pop
  up on WestCasino later this month.

<h2>Testament</h2>
<p>
  Even though we’ve already covered this game in our <a href="https://westcasino.com/blog/new-games/westcasinos-upcoming-games-march-2020-part-i" target="_blank">WestCasino’s Upcoming Games  of March 2020 – Part I</a> article, we want to talk about this game again since
  it’s really going to be special.
</p>
<p>
  Testament is a thrash metal band formed in Berkeley, California in 1983.
  They’re considered one of the “big eight” along with bands Metallica,
  Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Exodus, Overkill, and Death Angel. They became
  popular during the second wave of the thrash metal scene that took place in
  the late 80s. Also known as members of the Bay Area Thrashers, a name for
  metal bands that concerted in and around San Francisco, Testament have a
  distinctive sound, smart lyrics, and an original take on metal music.
</p>
<p>
  Last February, Swedish gaming software provider Play’n Go has announced the
  release of the Testament slot game in March. The graphics and sound will
  reflect the band’s 2012 album entitled Dark Roots of the Earth. Although a
  playlist hasn’t been announced yet, all songs featured in the game will most
  likely be off the aforementioned album. Hopefully, some older Testament hits
  will be present as well. In any case, the tunes will most definitely be
  amazing.
</p>
<p>
  Set against the backdrop of a demonic temple filled with evil statues,
  cobwebs, and the titular dark roots, the game’s atmosphere is that of a gothic
  horror movie, similar to the American Hammer films popular in the 60s and 70s.
  You’d almost expect the infamous Count Dracula to creepily descend the dusty
  stone stairs of the temple.
</p>
<p>
  From the screenshots we’ve seen, the button layout is pretty standard. You can
  choose the value of your bet and then Spin. The game also has an Autoplay
  button, and undoubtedly a Set List button.
</p>
<p>
  The symbols here are Banshees, Demons, Swords and Shields, Dark Knights,
  everything you’d expect from a metal band themed slot game. The game’s
  features will be Cold Embrace which causes Wild symbols to freeze in place for
  the duration of the bonus, Dark Roots of the Earth which will make Wild
  symbols spread up or down to create more Wilds, and Throne of Thorns where
  reels expand to a 4-5-6-5-4 format. Testament also includes a Free Spin
  feature dubbed Rise Up Spins and it’s activated by getting three Scatter
  symbols on the reels.
</p>
<p>
  Testament is shaping up to be a fun game with a dark atmosphere. We are
  eagerly waiting for its release so that you can play it and rock out to the
  band’s terrific tunes!
</p>
<h2>Fortunes of Ali Baba</h2>
<p>
  This Play’N Go original is inspired by the Arabian Nights Oriental folk tale,
  Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. In short, Ali Baba was a poor woodcutter who
  discovers a secret thieves’ den that could only be opened with a magic word.
  Ali Baba learned the word by spying on the thieves who entered the den. By
  saying “Open Sesame”, the woodcutter unlocked the mystical door and found an
  unbelievable treasure. He is caught by the thieves but is saved by his
  beautiful servant girl. As a reward, Ali Babe marries her to his son, and they
  keep the thieves’ riches for themselves.
</p>
<p>
  The game is played at the entrance of the fabled cave, framed by rocks and
  vegetation. Its standard layout makes the game very easy to understand. The
  game has five reels, three rows, and twenty fixed paylines. Wins are paid from
  left to right beginning with the first reel.
</p>
<p>
  Besides the standard symbols – Tens, Jacks, Queens, Kings, and Aces – Fortunes
  of Ali Baba includes Amulets, Daggers, Spices, and Jewels. Ali Baba himself is
  this game’s Wild symbol and Morgiana, the beautiful slave girl, represents the
  Scatter. Get a Scatter on the first reel and another on the last one and you
  enter the Den of Thieves, a cave lit by torches were the bonus game takes
  place. Choose from the many pots and you can win bonus cash or Free Spins.
</p>
<p>
  Fortunes of Ali Baba is a simple game with a decent RTP. Its lore alone makes
  it an interesting slot and the gameplay is worthy of Play’N Go’s reputation.
  Try it out!
</p>
<h2>Dawn of Egypt</h2>
<p>
  Set against the backdrop of an ancient Egyptian palace decorated with golden
  Horus statues on hieroglyph-inscribed pedestals, Dawn of Egypt is yet another
  masterpiece from Swedish game provider Play’N Go. It’s a five-reel, three-row
  online slot game with ten fixed paylines and a 96.23% RTP. The gold-rimmed
  frame holds the reels and the buttons.
</p>
<p>
  The symbols that you’ll encounter in this game are the standard Jacks, Queens,
  Kings, and Aces, and the particular Lotus Flower, Ankh, Scorpion, Cobra, the
  cat-god Bastet, and her father, the sun god Ra. This game’s Wild symbol is the
  Scarab, and the Scatter symbol is the Pyramid. Hit three or more Pyramids on
  the reels and you’ll trigger the Free Spin Bonus round. This is where the
  Wheel of the Gods feature comes into play. Spin the wheel and you’ll receive
  up to 20 Free Spins. The background changes during this bonus round as you
  step outside and see a great pyramid. During Free Spins, you’ll also encounter
  the Symbol Upgrade feature. Also, you’ll see Wild Scatters (Pyramids). Get two
  or more of these and you’ll trigger the Pyramid Spins. You can win up to 20,
  but the re-triggers are unlimited.
</p>
<p>
  Dawn of Egypt is another Play’N Go ancient Egypt-themed game and it’s just as
  entertaining as the others in the series. Play it now and marvel at the
  accomplishments of the once-great civilization!
</p>
<h2>Leprechaun Goes Wild</h2>
<p>
  Leprechaun Goes Wild is a fun, charming slot game with a bright, mystical
  atmosphere and a soothing soundtrack that turns your gaming session into a
  very relaxing time. It’s set against the backdrop of a blue sky populated with
  white, puffy clouds over a field of green with moss-covered statues of Irish
  lore. The game frame is wooden and decorated with Celtic motifs, while the
  menu is made of engraved stones. When playing this enchanting game, you’re
  bound to get a touch of the Luck of the Irish!
</p>
<p>
  The symbols that you’ll encounter here are Tens, Jacks, Queens, Kings, and
  Aces. Plus, the better-paying Horseshoe, Beer Mug, Pipe, Green Top Hat, and
  Pot of Gold. The Leprechaun is this game’s Wild symbol, while the golden Four
  Leaf Clover is the Scatter symbol. Two Scatters trigger the Luck of the Irish
  feature. Three Scatters trigger Free Spins. During the Luck of the Irish
  feature, 1 Wild symbol will be added to each reel. If an extra Scatter symbol
  appears, Free Spins are triggered.
</p>
<p>
  When Free Spins are activated, you’ll spin a wheel shaped like a four-leaf
  clover and you could get up to 13 Free Spins. 1 o more Wild symbols visible on
  each reel awards Extra Free Spins. You spin the clover wheel again and get up
  to 9 Extra Spins.
</p>
<p>
  Leprechaun Goes Wild is a very cool game, with a relaxing atmosphere. You
  could win up to 10000x your bet, which is absolutely amazing! If you want a
  taste of the Luck of the Irish, you must definitely play this game!
</p>

  lot of joy and a lot of wins. WestCasino has always had a good relationship
