One of the best things about Microgaming is that they always have a steady drip feed of new slots to look forward to every month and this time around, it is the fantastic new SunTide Slot that is playing a key role in getting 2016 off to a flying start for slots fans.
If you are a fan of retro-type slots which have fewer paylines and perhaps a little simpler game-play than some of the more modern-design slots, then SunTide is certainly one game that qull pique your interest. It is a 5x3 reel slot but it has just 9 paylines in operation which means that it is one of the cheapest slots you can play.
You can get all the reels spinning on the SunTide slot for a minimum wager of just 0.09 per spin, although you can ramp up the action depending on your mood and bankroll to a much larger £22.50, which means that this is a perfect slot for a micro to medium stakes punter in particular.
The theme of the slot is simply the summer and the backdrop is a beautiful, hazy tropical island sunset. Its bright yellow and orange based colour scheme certainly evokes warmer times of the year when the days are much hotter and longer.
What is particularly appealing to fans of slot games is that you can play the new SunTide slot on a wide array of devices. Not only is this a game you can play from your desktop or laptop, but you can play equally well from any number of mobile devices including Android and iOS (Apple) devices.
The Retro element of the slot is enhanced by the fact that the designers have elected to use some of the more old-style slot symbols on the new game, so you can expect to see all the usual low fruit symbols across the reels, as well as the Bars and Sevens that generally point towards a more lucrative win.
There are a couple of other key symbols that you need to be aware of on this very easy to follow slot and the first of these is the in game Wild which is very easy to spot as it is the Gold Coin symbol on the reels.
While you can land a Wild symbol across any of the five reels and in any position, if you manage to land one in the middle reel, then the Wild will expand upwards and/or downwards depending on its position to cover the entire reel and give you a much better chance of landing at least one, if not multiple, winning paylines on that spin.
Of course, the more Wilds you can land across the reels, particularly with an Expanding Wild across the middle reel, gives you a greater chance of landing one of the bigger base game wins, which can go up to a jackpot of 8,000 coins.
The other big feature of the slot is the in game Scatter symbol which when you land three or more of the across the reels, you trigger 15 free spins regardless of how many scatters land on the reels. One nice touch is that during free spins, if you land one of the Wild symbols on reels 2, 3 or 4, then it will expand across the reel giving you the chance of bigger wins.
The free spins round is the key to unlocking bigger wins in the SunTide slot with the chance to win 3333 times your stake during free spins.
In addition, Free Spins can be re-triggered by landing three or more scatters during the free spins round, which can give you a further 15 free spins added to your total, for a maximum of 30 free spins.
SunTide is a retro-styled slot with simple features, instantly recognisable symbols on the reels, two enjoyable bonus elements and all based on a warm sunny theme. It's a medium variance game which means that it may not reward you with every spin, but when you do win, you do tend to win slightly more than you would on a comparable slot.
