Zombies and Bookies Inspire Two New Slots

Online gaming fans who fancy spending some time with the undead will be pleased to hear that Microgaming has just launched two brand new slot titles – one featuring zombies and the other featuring a bookie. The two titles to watch out for are Zombie Hoard and Bookie of Odds, and whilst we’ll leave it up to you to decide which of those creatures is the most undead, here is a sneak peek into what you can expect from the games themselves…

Zombie Hoard

Zombie Hoard is a five-reel slot with nine pay lines which adopts the ever-popular zombie theme, but this time it’s just for laughs. Cartoon-style symbols include the playing card ranks 10, J, Q, K and A, a brain scatter symbol, the Zombie Hoard logo (which is wild) and a host of undead characters, all of whom look like they’ve been caught on camera at a particularly bad moment.

Every time you spin a brain symbol onto the reels, the game records the event, and when you have collected thirty brains you will trigger a free spins bonus round. The free spins feature can also be triggered by getting three or more brain symbols on the reels at the same time. Boasting a suitably fun soundtrack and event-driven audio effects, Zombie Hoard is a game that is sure to put a smile on your face.

As David Reynolds, Games Publisher at Microgaming, says: ‘Zombie Hoard is an enjoyable new slot from Slingshot Studios, serving up a fun and lively take on the popular zombie genre. The free spins token collect feature adds a great sense of momentum to the game aiding player retention, as players build up their grisly heaps of rewarding brains to gain entry into an excellent, feature-packed bonus round, brimming with super stacked wilds and a win enhancing 2x multiplier. Capped off with gruesomely fun graphics and toe-tapping tunes, Zombie Hoard is an engrossing new addition to Microgaming’s diverse catalogue.’

Bookie of Odds

Bookie of Odds is a great game for anyone who enjoys the sport of horseracing. Developed for Microgaming by Triple Edge Studios, this five-reel slot has ten pay lines and symbols include the usual playing card ranks, a variety of runners and the Bookie of Odds himself. A golden Tip Book symbol serves as a scatter, and if you get three or more of those you will trigger up to 25 free spins.

The audio in this game is particularly atmospheric, with a variety of realistic racetrack sound effects and reels that make a galloping sound as they spin. The star of the game, however, is the REELBET respin feature which allows you to respin individual reels (at a cost which varies according to the reel you select) in order to try and land yourself an even bigger win.

‘And they’re off!’ said Brendan Walton, who is Design Lead at Triple Edge Studios. ‘We are delighted to introduce Bookie of Odds, our feature-packed celebration of the race day experience. Enhanced with vibrant graphics, the heady atmosphere of the racecourse is brought to life with our exciting REELBET respin mechanic and free spins, with the chance for players to win up to 5,000 times their initial bet.’

Thrilling Races or Monstrous Faces? You Decide!

Zombie Hoard and Bookie of Odds are two very different games, but both are well worth spending some time with, so whichever you choose to play you are sure to enjoy the experience. If you manage to win big in the process, so much the better!
