Booming Games Releases New Disco Bar 7s Slot

The 70s were a great period that was mostly defined by great outfits and hairstyles, great dance and music, the amazing outfits, and, of course, the simple and captivating slots games that were based on various outstanding elements borrowed from the aspects of the era. In fact, slots were all the buzz back in the day with people obsessing over them thanks to the excitement they offered and the possibilities of huge wins.

Well, if you are nostalgic about the casino offerings from the 70s, then this is your lucky day. Booming Games has recently released a new slot game that will take you on a trip back in time to the dancing 70s. Titled Disco Bar 7s, the new disco title features classic designs similar to what existed in the 70s but it will certainly appeal to each and every slots machine enthusiast on the planet. There are a number of other great slot machine offerings but this is definitely among the very best of them.

Disco Bar 7s consists of 3 reels and 10 paylines which are accompanied with a 95.96 percent RTP – these, in addition to the funky tunes and fast-paced gaming that the slot game features make the game a worthy use of your precious time. Winning big is made even easier with a number of cool multipliers, and Wild and Scatters.

Uniquely Themed

Even though Disco Bar 7s is prominently themed to match the look of offerings from the 1970s, Booming Games went out of their way to make sure that the game was a treat for players. Therefore, they opted to pattern it after the classic fruit slot machines and the results speak for themselves – there is nothing like it.

Disco Bar 7s is a very colorful slot game with its bright blues and purples on the reels. However, every colorful element that is added to the game also serves other purposes by contributing to the overall functionality of the game. Players can find Disco Ball Wilds on the reels – this pays the most and doubles wins when it is part of a winning combination. Similarly, the scatters offer nice multipliers when found on the reels.

The Game Play

From the very first glance, players will notice that Booming Games’ intention with this particular offering was replicating the real casino experience. Once they start playing it becomes even more pronounced as they will feel like they are sitting at a slot machine at a real 70s casino. Furthermore, this extends to playing on the go as well – Booming Games also ensure that the game can be accessed on mobile phones and tablets. Whichever method you choose to access the games, the experience will be nearly the same thanks to some next level optimization built into the game.

Illinois Online Gaming Set For Hearings in November

As it stands, most states that chose to examine online poker legislation in early 2018 moved to abandon it, at least until their next legislative sessions kick off next year. Not Illinois though. The state is set to be the next state to fully launch its online gaming industry, a process that will begin when they create a regulatory framework for legalized sports betting.

There are high some pretty expectations following the announcement by a lawmaker who intends to push for comprehensive gaming expansion that will encompass sports betting, online casino games, online poker as well as daily fantasy sports. The lawmaker, Representative Bob Rita who is also the head of the Illinois House Subcommittee on Gaming Sales and Other Taxes, believes that by advancing the proposed regulatory framework bring “tremendous opportunities to create revenue, jobs, and economic growth” in the state.
The lawmaker will be bringing together the two House committees in the coming weeks so as to coordinate efforts for a significant gaming expansion bill that promises a number of economic opportunity initiatives. The first of these subcommittee hearings is scheduled for August 22 with the following shortly after on October 3.

“As I have said from the beginning in working on this issue, gaming expansion presents many tremendous opportunities to create revenue, jobs and economic growth in Illinois,” Rita said in a press release. “The gaming landscape has changed significantly since I took on this issue five years ago, and I want to use these hearings to understand how those changes present new opportunities for us to put the right package together as we look to meet budget needs and provide a spark for our economy.”

The primary focus of the hearings, according to WCSJ News, will be to address the possibility of not only online sports betting but also other forms of online gambling. It is hoped that the hearings will assist the lawmakers in better understanding of the issues that need to be addressed as far as sports betting is concerned. The lawmakers will be returning to the capitol in November – shortly after the mid-term election – for the fall veto session and when this comes to an end we will have a clearer picture of the future of online poker in Illinois.

Too Early To Get Their Hopes Up?

Online poker fans residing in Illinois have quite a lot to be hopeful about. This is because the desire for sports betting and daily fantasy sports in the state is strong and since these issues are certainly going to be discussed rather explicitly during the hearings, the push for online gambling is also going to be just as prominent. The inclusion of online poker and other online casino games is being considered by very many of the state’s casino simply because they have seen the benefits similar initiatives have brought to Atlantic City, New Jersey.

A Look into Microgaming’s Robin of Sherwood Online Slot

Microgaming has been in the online gambling scene for quite some time and while it may seem like the age of innovation in regards to online gaming is practically over, the company still often manages to surprise their fans and slot machine enthusiasts with some additional slot games dress in various themes. The most recent addition into their pretty neat portfolio of themed online slots machines is titled “Robin of Sherwood” and it takes players to a forest in England where Robin Hood, the most famous and “noble” criminal lives.

Developed by Rabcat, Microgaming’s Robin of Sherwood online slot sees a band of merry men helping the players to trigger special wild symbols, free spins, and a Gamble Game feature. There are certainly a number of slot machines that are based on the exciting adventures of Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men, but Robin of Sherwood is a total re-imagination of the story laid out in a graphically rich manner with cool features and captivating designs just like all other Microgaming offerings albeit with a touch of an amazing array of extra features.

The forest is vividly depicted and players can even see characters from Robin Hood’s story in the reels. In general, expect nothing less than the ultimate cross-over of exciting adventure and great storytelling.

“Our striking depiction of the legendary Robin of Sherwood delivers a cutting-edge gaming experience packed with thrilling features, flawless character animations, and a volley of winning opportunities. We are delighted to supply Microgaming with exclusive gaming content that hits the mark with players and operators alike,” commented Rabcat founder and chief executive Thomas Schleischitz.

Game Details

Robin of Sherwood is a 5 by 3 slot with 234 pay lines and is filled with cartoon images of the story’s characters, as well as arrows, targets, and flags. The online slot’s playing card symbols are represented in the form of colorful flags with lower-value wins being claimed when 3 or more land in any of the places adjacent reels from the left side. Robin, Friar, the Sheriff, Little John and Maid Marion return higher prizes while the arrows are a wild symbol that can act as any of the previously mentioned symbols and therefore be used to complete combinations.

The game’s Wild Turning feature is also one of the game’s best highlights – when it is triggered, players will see Robin Hood ordering his men to fire arrows into selected reels and when the arrows hit the reels they turn into Wilds. These Wilds will increase a player’s chances of winning great prizes significantly.

Furthermore, landing three or more scatter symbols will trigger the extra spins feature. This earns a player ten additional free spins.

Another special feature that players should look out for is the Gamble Game which allows players to gamble their loot and double its size – you could also lose it all, so be careful with this one. With the Gamble Game, the player gets to choose a green or red target and Robin will then try to hit either of them. If he hits the one you selected, your loot is doubled, otherwise, you lose it all. It is that simple!

NetEnt Releases Jumanji Online Video Slot

NetEnt has announced the release of its latest slot game that brings the beloved Sony Entertainment’s classic film Jumanji to slots lovers. Jumanji, the video slot game, combines the classic board game with video slots and triggers an escape of rhinos, wild monkeys, monsoons and sticky vines. Even though the 2017 reboot of the film was hugely successful, NetENt opted to base the video slot game on the original 1995 movie that starred Robin Williams and told the story of a man trapped in a board game that comes to life as you play.

“The Jumanji movie was a great success and we know it has fans all over the world. Making a slot game true to the fantastic features of the movie has been challenging but most of all great fun. We found a way of incorporating both board game features and all the excitement into a slot game and the game has already been well received by players!” Henrik Fagerlund, NetEnt’s chief product officer at said.

What to Expect

NetEnt has outdone itself with this particular offering by bringing its own innovative twist to the universe by transforming by delivering the calamities that befell Alan Parrish (Robin Williams’ character in the movie) to the world of online slots. The five-reel slot game manages to deliver the same excitement that the movie offers and even if you have not watched the movie you will certainly notice this.

The video slot game has 4 random features, these are, a Board Game with four different Free Spins, extra dice rolls, coin wins and a Mystery Feature. The base game’s reels are set up in a 3-4-5-4-3 formation with 36 different fixed pay lines. Also included is an Auto Play feature that allows players to keep spinning with minimal effort. Jumanji starts with traditional slots, lining up J, Q, K, A or pictures of lions, crocodiles, pelicans, and rhinoceros – these are arranged in ascending order with animals being more valuable than letters. In addition to this, there are also wild slots and pictures of the board game that inspired the video slot game.

Fans of the 1995 film will instantly notice four of the slot game’s best features that include: Wild Stampede where Rhinos stampede across the screen as the reels spin, Monkey Mayhem which awards potential wins when the reels stop spinning, Sticky Vines where all symbols that are part of a win and all the Wilds from the initial spin stick to the reels while all other symbols spin again, and Monsoon Winds where a maximum of two reels are completely covered in wilds while the reels spin.

Jumanji joins many other of NetEnt’s branded games that feature in its neat portfolio of movie-themed games like Planet of the Apes, Scarface, and Aliens. Like most of NetEnt’s games, Jumanji is available for both mobile devices and computers.

Choosing a Crypto Bookmaker for the FIFA World Cup 2018

We are over a week into the 2018 FIFA World Cup that is currently taking place in Russia and being watched by an audience of more than 3 billion people from all corners of the globe. Like many other sporting events, the World Cup has also been a great opportunity for a little more excitement and side action in the form of sports betting which is enjoyed by a vast number of soccer fans.

Sports betting has been on the rise and even crypto has caught on to the trend. While betting on the previous World Cup was nearly unheard of, specifically because it was still at its infancy, this year’s World Cup is proof that crypto is here to stay – not just as an asset for gambling but also as a mainstream currency.

The debate about the viability of crypto aside, it is quite obvious that crypto sports betting has evolved tremendously in the past four years. As such, instead of worrying about the scarcity of crypto-powered bookmakers, this time around we will only need to stress (just a little) about finding the best one. So, how do you find one?

The Currency You Want to Deal in Matters

Bitcoin is still, without a doubt, the king (or queen) of digital currencies. However, we cannot ignore how important other altcoins are in the crypto ecosystem especially when it comes to betting. Bitcoin betting is still offered in most of the bookmakers but in sites like BetOnline, the punters can bet using Dash Litecoin and Ethereum while other like Bovada and Cloudbet accept bets in Bitcoin Cash. Whichever site you choose, just make sure it supports the digital currency you hold or wish to bet with.

Still, on the digital currencies, we all know how crazily the prices of cryptocurrencies fluctuate. Many gamblers, therefore, prefer to have their digital currencies converted to fiat currencies like the dollar, British Pound or euro once they are deposited. It is advisable to look for bookmakers like Bovada and Pinnacle that allow you to do this.

Go for the Best Promotions

Compared to the traditional online bookmakers, crypto-powered bookmakers usually have rather disappointing promotions especially when it comes to crypto-only sports betting platforms where the users can create multiple accounts. Fortunately, the World Cup has allowed for the creation of an exception – sites like CloudeBet and Nitrogen Sports are currently running World Cup free bet offers and promotions. You are certainly bound to come across more of such sites if you look hard enough.

In conclusion, there are a number of other things that you may need to consider before you settle on a specific crypto bookmaker – these include; how high the betting limits should be, withdrawal speeds and the legality of crypto gambling in your jurisdiction. All these are enough pointers to get you started on your way towards some exciting side action as you enjoy the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

The Best New Online Slot Games in 2018, So Far

As it has always been, there is yet to be a casino game that can beat the sheer variety and range of slots games. There are always more and more online slots games of different varieties and themes being introduced each and every month. While there are always some disappointing variations of the games that disguise themselves in well-worn themes, you will always find a decent number of great online slot games if you look hard enough. The online space has made it very easy for these gems to be accessed from anywhere and therefore all that slot machine enthusiast have to do is to pick a reputable site to play on.

Naturally, considering how vast the online space is, it is something of a challenge in itself to find a great game as well as a great site to play on. Alongside the new slot games that are launched every month, there is also a plethora of online casinos that go live as the online casino market continues its meteoric rise.

Still, slot games are becoming more and more varied and engaging which implies that you are guaranteed of all the perks that you would get to enjoy when playing at a land-based casino. So, today I am going to give you pointers to some of the newest and the best online slot games of the year. This may, of course, change as the year progresses and more innovative and technological improvements are made – but for now, you will not go wrong with these ones.

Wrecking Ball

At first glance, this will not look like a slots game to you. The reels are arranged in four columns, with each column spotting different symbols. Perhaps the biggest highlight of the game is the eponymous wrecking ball that swings across the screen leaving behind a trail of destruction which, fortunately for the player, unravels symbols that usually amount to some huge bonuses.

In addition to this, Wrecking Ball also features a bonus game in which a player can navigate a crane and directing the wrecking ball to different buildings and uncovering more hidden goodies.

Monopoly Hot Shot

There have been several different slot versions of the popular Monopoly board game, for years but this particular variant offers something much different. Monopoly Hot Shot gives you a hybrid package of monopoly and slots while still remaining true to the conventional slots gameplay that we all know and love – it features three reels, nine pay lines as well as “hot shot” mini reels.

Beat Square

This is arguably the best slots game in 2018 – in fact, the skill-based game slots game has already scooped a number of awards including the Best Slot Product for 2018 in the Global Gaming Business magazine-sponsored Gaming and Technology Awards.

It is also the most unique game I have seen so far. This is because it does not even have reals, at least not the traditional ones that we have grown accustomed to. In place of the reels, Beat Square has 16 buttons arranged in a four by four grid that light up to music. The player’s task is to get with the rhythm of the music that will be playing in the course of the game. Hitting the right buttons results in a big payout.

Lightning Box Ventures into Portuguese Market with 9 Slots

Sydney-based independent video slots developer and multi-channel supplier, Lightning Box Games has been given the go-ahead to enter the Portuguese market. The venture will be facilitated through the SG Digital platform which will see to it that Lightning Box’s brand of fun and exciting slots titles are accessible to Portugal-based slots lovers.

Lightning Box’s efforts to the penetrate the Portuguese market paid off when the company was granted a license by the Serviço de Regulação e Inspeção de Jogos (SIRJ), Portugal’s leading regulatory body. The license was a green light for the slot developer to go ahead with a planned release of nine new games that are certainly bound to catch the attention of the Portuguese gambling market.

The rollout of the slots developer’s games will happen in phases with the first wave of releases across the market being the: Silver Lion, Stellar Jackpots-Chilli Gold x2, Stellar Jackpots-Serengeti Lions, Stellar Jackpots-More Monkeys, Respin Rhino, Dolphin Gold, Redroo, Mild Rockers and Blazing Goddess.

As it stands, having been allowed to pursue its operation in the country, Lightning Box has been in a number of related distribution-related talks with some of the most notable operators in the country.

“We are thrilled to be given the opportunity to expand our footprint into Portugal, an online market that could present a number of new operator partnerships for us. We look forward to announcing those partnerships and the release of more games to the Portuguese market in due course,” said Peter Causley, Lightning Box’s co-founder and Managing Director.

The Lightning Box brand was founded in 2004 by David Little and Peter Causley and since then it has managed to produce a series of some of the most highly commercially successful games like Dragon Palace, Astro Car, Five Pirates and Frogs ‘n Flies. All these games still remain to be some of the most popular titles in many places and they continue to be regularly updated in order to give the customers the best possible experience.

This move could just the beginning for the Portuguese gambling market as they might soon be able to enjoy the slot maker’s entire portfolio of games. SG Digital – mentioned earlier – is one of the Lightning Box’s partners and a major games aggregator whose platform will be used by Lightning Box to offer Portuguese player the thrills of the nine new slots. Also, by acquiring the license from Serviço de Regulação e Inspeção de Jogos Lightning Box will be operating in accordance to the law and in addition to the fact that its games are regularly checked for fairness by independent auditors, the platform offers the best possible slot experience one can find anywhere in the world.

Crypto Gambling Watch Dog Ramps up Its Operations

It has been a remarkable past few months for cryptocurrencies as they have rapidly grown to be quite popular in nearly all corners of the globe. In essence, this can be likened to the present day gold-rush and no one wants to be left behind. One of the areas where crypto has seen heavy adoption and usage is the gambling industry.

According to a statistical report, since 2014 approximately 4.0 million BTC has been placed on bets that equate to about $37 billion. This, when compared to the global statistics, is a just a fraction of what the cryptocurrency gambling industry is capable of. Clearly, the gambling industry is the winner here.

However, one of the most pressing issues when it comes to gambling is regulation which also extends to the crypto gambling space as well. That is where leading crypto gambling affiliate site Gamble.io comes in. It serves as a regulator that screens and reviews cryptocurrency-oriented gambling services and site so as to ensure they are safe and trustworthy to play on.

A month ago, the watchdog site completed its review of a bitcoin-based sports betting site known as Cloudbet – the review not only confirmed that Cloudbet’s solid reputation is not a fluke but also pointed out some of the aspects that needed to be improved. This review was a clear indication of how serious Gamble.io is about ensuring that gambling in crypto is safe for everyone.

Gamble.io has recently laid down its regulations on another crypto gambling operator known as BitStarz which also happens to be known for being a reputable gambling operation. Gamble.io has put BitStarz on its casino of the month spot thanks to the operator’s unique approach to merging the use of both fiat currency and crypto. The full review also points out some of BitStarz’s best attributes that include great overall play selection, reliability as well as mobile compatibility.

“Due to the fairly large number of new players in the game, we were not able to conduct our studies as quickly as we had hoped. Our reviews and studies consist of multiple phases from depositing, game selection, customer service and anything else worth knowing for a crypto player. For example, testing the various games from different casinos took a little longer than expected. However, now we’ve completed the task and are proud to present our findings. We continue to be on the lookout for new crypto casinos,” said Matt Beardsley, the Gamble.io spokesperson.
