Due for release this month is a stunning new title developed by exclusive Microgaming studio partner Neon Valley Studios.
Simply titled ‘Augustus’, the upcoming new release draws its inspiration from the age of the reign of the Ancient Romans. Featuring superbly striking graphics and special effects, the game creates the sensation of the player being literally drawn in by a different time in history altogether – with white marble buildings seen perfectly off-setting striking reds and golds in the background.
The symbols, too, look very near real and almost actually human as they land on the 5×3 reels. 20 fixed paylines and a maximum payout of 1,000x the player’s initial bet have been included for the win.
Bonus features and special symbols include Wild Reels, Legion Flags Scatter symbols, a Logo Wild, and a beautifully presented Free Spins bonus game.
In addition to being a substituting symbol for standard symbols, the Wild can at random intervals become enlarged in size by covering up to 3 positions on a single reel. Wilds can also be collected by landing two Augustus Gold Coins on a single reel. Once landed, these collected and displayed above the relevant column. Once both have been collected, the triggering reel is instantly turned entirely Wild for the duration of the next 2 spins.
The Roman Legion Flag Scatter symbols is the key to triggering the Free Spins bonus round. Three or more landed simultaneously will automatically activate 2, 8, or 25 free games.
