New Slots To Be Released on Week 23 of 2021

We have returned to bring you a list of the best new slots from week 23 of 2021. This week is a particularly exciting one as our list is made up of almost exclusively high volatility slots. It is not for the faint-hearted. Here, we offer a quick rundown of the most exciting features available on these top new releases to whet your appetite and help you familiarize yourself with them.

5 New Slots To Check Out

Our selection of slots for this week 21 comes from Quickspin, Just For The Win, Pragmatic Play, and Evoplay. As usual, all of these games are worth a shot, although the wide range of themes and features catering to various tastes means that some would be a better fit than others. Keep reading to discover which of them is right for you.

Golden Glyph 2

To kick off our list of new slots for this week, we return to the wonderful land of ancient Egypt in this impressive and volatile, sequel to the original Golden Glyph by Quickspin. It is a medium to high volatility game with an RTP of 96.09% (down from 96.19% in the original). The top prize here is 26,800 times your bet (which ranges from $0.2 to $100).

This cluster pays grid slot plays out on a large seven-reel, seven-payline grid that’s framed in gold and lies on a background that features an attractive view of an ancient Egyptian desert with pillars, cliffs, a temple, and a temple guard with a rifle on camelback. The symbols here include the low-paying symbols such as water symbols, eyes, Ankhs, and serpents, and the higher value ones of the Pharaoh, Queen, and Horus. The ‘W’ tile is the wild here, it substitutes for any regular pay symbol to help complete a cluster.

The Power Glyph modifier system that was introduced in the original is also central to the gameplay here. When you land a winning cluster, the cluster is removed from the grid and a Power Glyph symbol appears in one of the winning locations. They function like a wild and trigger a power-up when they form part of a winning cluster. There are seven power-ups available here, the first six trigger either Golden Scarabs or one of the 6 Patterns of Horus modifiers. The seventh triggers a 2×3 sized Gigantic Wild in the base game, and in free spins, a Golden Glyph.

The Golden Scarab modifier awards between four and 11 wilds to positions on the grid at random.
The Patterns of Horus modifier removes symbols from certain positions on the grid in one of 6 unique patterns (Cross, Ankh, Bird, Eye, Hourglass, or Snake), triggering a new tumble.
The Gigantic Wild modifier adds 2×3 wild to the grid.
The Golden Glyph modifier adds up to four Golden Glyph Wilds to the grid.

You trigger seven free spins by landing at least three scatters, and this feature can be retriggered.

Odin’s Riches

Odin’s Riches is a Norse mythology-themed slot from Just For The Win and powered by Microgaming. This game continues Just For The Win’s recent trend of releasing exciting, volatile slots and is their first attempt at a grid game, and what an attempt it is! It comes in a seven-reel, seven-row cluster pays setup. It is a high variance slot with an RTP of 96.07% and offers a maximum payout of 5,000 times your stake.

The visuals here represent a departure from the typical extravagant look of Just For The Win Games with its minimalist approach. The game features simple yet stylish visuals with its runes and basic symbols that make up the grid. To the left of the grid is a collection meter, and on the right is a Viking ship and a pile of gold. There is also a plain burgundy wall with a stylish Celtic design in the upper right quadrant. The game’s soundtrack that changes in tempo to match the intensity of the action taking place on the grid is truly brilliant.

The symbols here include 4 lower-paying runes Tiwaz, Othalan, Dagaz, and Mannaz, worth 5 to 12.5x for a cluster of 15 or more. The higher-paying symbols are ravens, serpents, wolves, and dragons, worth a payout of 25 to 300x for clusters of 15 or more. The goal is here it to land clusters and fill a meter to win various modifiers which include:

Dragon Riches where five or more of the same symbol form a win no matter their position on the grid.
Wolf’s Hunger where all low pay symbols are removed to trigger the Rolling Reels feature.
Serpent’s Wisdom where one low symbol is upgraded at random.
Raven’s Flight where rows of symbols from each corner of the grid are removed and replaced with 3-5 wilds triggering Rolling Reels.

Each winning cluster is removed and replaced via the cascading Rolling Reels mechanism with every reaction creating a wild symbol. This continues until no new winning clusters are formed. The modifiers are triggered for every 25 winning symbols collected in the meter. They are queued and released onto the grid when no more wins appear. When the meter is full (125 symbols), seven free spins are awarded.

Heart of Rio

Heart of Rio is a new slot from Pragmatic Play that is themed on the Rio Carnival, a celebration of epic proportions that attracts participants from all around the world. The slot plays out on a five-reel, three-row, and 25-payline slot with no shortage of party spirit with its brilliant colors and imagery with stars, parrots, toucans, masks, drums, feathers, and confetti. The game features an upbeat soundtrack that ties neatly into the theme.

The game has a default RTP of 96.5% coupled and is a medium volatility slot. The game’s symbols include lower-paying J-A card royals with coconut beverages, masks, an Adriana Lima, and a lady in purple as the high-value symbols. The highest paying symbol is the lady in purple, paying 32 times your stake for a combination of five. The wild symbol here substitutes all other symbols except the bonus, money symbol, or collect and lands on reels 2 to 5 only.

The money symbol here is a disco ball that lands on reels 1 to 4. The money symbol takes on a random value from a set for each spin. The game features five collect symbol variations. If you land at least one money symbol at the same time as one of the 5 collect symbol variations on the last reel, one of the following occurs:

Collect: The values of all the money symbols are added together and paid.
Extra credit collect: The value from the extra credit collect symbol is added to all money symbols and the total is paid.
Multiplier collect: The value of all money symbols is multiplied by the multiplier on the collect symbol and this is paid.
Expanding collect: All reels with a money symbol are covered in money symbols with random values. The values are added up and paid.
Respin collect: All money symbols are locked in place while the remaining cells respin. The value of locked symbols is added to whatever new ones you get from the respin.

Landing three or more scatters on reels 2 to 4 awards eight free spins. When money symbols land during the free spins, their values are collected and returned to the reels in the form of a giant money symbol on reels 1-4 after which a respin occurs. If you land a collect symbol, the bonus is paid. The free spins can be retriggered indefinitely.

Rise of Samurai Megaways is an anime-style Bushido, oriental-themed slot from Pragmatic Play and a follow-up to the original Rise of Samurai slot. Although it looks similar to the original, do not be deceived, this Megaways version is a different beast altogether, offering very different gameplay and features on a 7-8-8-8-8-7 layout with 200,704 paylines. It is a high variance slot and has an RTP of 95.7%.

The game’s reels are packed with appropriately styled symbols including lower-paying turquoise, brown, green, blue, purple and red coin-style symbols and higher-paying blue, green, purple and red Samurais. The wild here is the golden Samurai armor that appears on reels 2 to 6 and the horizontal tracker. It replaces other symbols to help form a winning combination any win that involves one or more wilds awards twice the payout.

The game’s features include the Tumble Wins feature that is activated whenever you land a win, removing all participating symbols and replacing them with new symbols in a process that only stops when no more wins are formed. The ante bet feature increases the cost per spin by 25% and adds more dragon scatters to the reel strips increasing your chances of activating the bonus round.

You trigger the bonus round by landing three to six scatters anywhere on the reels. This awards 5 to 100x upfront. A bonus wheel spins to determine the number of free spins and the multiplier you get, you can retrigger a spin on the bonus wheel by landing 3+ scatters.

Its betting range is set between $0.10 and $50. To win here, you need to land three or more identical symbols on adjacent reels across a payline.

Gangster night is a well-designed slot, with great sounds and visuals. The reels feature various trinkets that are differently shaped and colored green, orange, blue, purple and red, and portraits of a detective and gangsters, including a female. Each of these characters can appear as wild in the game, replacing other paying symbols to form a winning combination. A wild is turned into a colossal wild by the Wild Hunt feature where a spotlight shines on the wild, causing it to expand to cover a reel.

New Slots To Be Released on Week 14 of 2021

Software developers have scheduled a host of amazing games for release during week 14 of 2021. This is always great news for casino lovers, and what’s even better is that these games will come with an array of exciting new features waiting to be tried out.

If you’re looking to find out more about these new slots and the features they come with, then our preview of the top slots to be released this week is exactly what you need. For casino newbies, this preview will guide you on which slot to try out first, keeping you from getting overwhelmed by all the new releases. Let’s delve right into it.

5 New Slots to Check Out

Some of the biggest software developers are back at it this week with exciting slots scheduled for release. There are slots from Elk Studios, Pragmatic Play, Play’n Go, NoLimit City, and Quickspin. Read on to find out which of these slots will be worth your attention.

Cluster Slide

Cluster Slide is a new slot from Elk Studios with a 96% RTP. The slot is of high volatility. Elk Studios are known for delivering games with interesting reel and grid layouts, and their gravity mechanics are applied whenever symbols fall. These models are also adapted for their Cluster Slide slot.

The slot has a 7-column, 8-row grid, and the backdrop is the surface of a planet known as Jellyton. You can already see from the background that this planet is a rather interesting one. There are several colorful planets floating over the surface of the home planet, and jelly-covered square monsters fill up the symbols. These monsters are sometimes covered in fur and may appear cute, but they eat each other to grow in size. All in all, the visuals on this game are quite attractive. Lovers of outer space are going to love the graphics.

There is a Generator meter to the top right of the grid that gets topped up with every winning combination. When this meter is filled up, it offers players the chance to select one out of 5 Feature Wild Symbols. They are:

Big – expands a random symbol into a 2×2 sized symbol.
Random – turns 2-4 pay symbols into wilds.
Multiplier – increases your win multiplier by +1.
Upgrading – upgrades an entire symbol type to a higher value.
Removing – takes an entire symbol type out of the grid.

Number of Paylines: Cluster Pays	RTP: 96%
Min Bet: 0.20	Max Bet: 100
Max Payout: 10,000x	Software Provider: Elk Studios

Wild Booster

Set into a bright purple backdrop with a gold-framed reel, this classic slot from Pragmatic Play has all the makings of a fan favorite. The visuals and soundtrack are sharp and confident, the kind you would expect to run into at a Vegas Brick-and-Mortar casino. The layout of this slot is similar to what you’ll get with most other pragmatic play slots. It has five reels and three layouts with 20 active paylines.

Wild Booster is a high volatility slot, with a return to player of 96.47%. Two exciting bonus features are on offer here. They are:

Mega Boost: With this feature, the Wild Boost multiplier is set at 2x, and players get five free spins. Scatters are picked up as you spin, and for every five scatters picked up, the multiplier level increases. The levels you can reach are 2x, 5x, 10x, and then 100x. Each time the level increases, you get five new extra spins on which the new multiplier level is used.
Ultra Boost: The Ultra Boost also comes with five free spins, but with a multiplier setting of 5x. After landing five scatters, that level moves up to 6x, then 12x and 50x. The advantage with this round is that Scatters are gotten much more frequently than in the Mega Boost round.

Number of Paylines: 20	RTP: 96.47%
Min Bet: 0.20	Max Bet: 100
Max Payout: 5,000x	Software Provider: Pragmatic Play

Fire Toad

Fire Toad is another bright and adventurous slot from Play’n Go. The slot is set on an impressive island with rolling seas and lava dotting the background. The volcanoes will occasionally erupt, letting out hot lava into the sea to a steamy hissing effect.

The game has a mixed Wild and Scatter symbol that pays up to 5x your stake whenever it forms. It could also carry out the individual function of a Wild, substituting for other symbols whenever it appears on the reels. When you land two of these symbols, the Fire Toad symbol gets a size upgrade. This upgrade could go all the way up from a Fire Tadpole to a Fire Toad King. The bigger the Toad gets, the larger the winnings you get from its combinations.

To trigger the free spins bonus round in this game, players will have to land at least three mixed scatter symbols simultaneously. This will offer nine free spins. Landing four of the mixed symbol gives 12 free spins, and five gives 15 free spins.

Number of Paylines: 1,024	RTP: 96.25%
Min Bet: 0.1	Max Bet: 100
Max Payout: 5,000x	Max Payout: Play’n Go

Bushido Ways xNudge

This is the third slot in the extremely volatile slot series from NoLimit City. Bushido Ways xNudge is a Japanese-themed video slot. It transports players back to the feudal Japanese society where fearless samurais with the Bushido code of honor, respect, tribute, glory, fear, and revenge defended Emperors of old, with its stunning visuals and dramatic soundtrack.

The game features a wooden reel set against a blurry backdrop of the burning aftermath of battle. There are various symbols on the reels like the card royals A, K, Q, J, and 10, as the lower-paying symbols; red, blue, and green samurais as the higher paying symbols; the Geisha xNudge Multiplier Wild, stacked four rows high; and Kabuto Helmet Scatter. It is a high variance slot with an RTP of 96.01% and a grid of 5 reels and 4 rows, providing 1,014 ways to win!

The Geisha Wild appears on the middle reels only. When it lands partially in view, she triggers the xNudge feature. The wild moves until it is fully in view with every step it moves; the win multiplier increases by 1. She can also substitute for all the other symbols except the scatter. When you land the single tile wilds on reels 3, 4, or 5, they are sliced into 2 to 4 symbols. This can increase the win ways to as much as 12,288.

When you land the Kabuto Helmet Scatter simultaneously as a stacked warrior, you trigger the Oni Transform feature. The scatter and the lower-value samurai symbols on the grid transform to the highest value warrior on the grid.

You trigger the Shogun Bonus round when you land at least three scatters anywhere on the grid. This wins you eight free spins for three scatters and one extra for every other scatter. During the free spins round, you are guaranteed at least one single wild landing on any of the second to fifth reels per spin. If you land a Geisha Wild during this round, you can trigger the Geisha Spin feature. You can also trigger it by landing scatters simultaneously as a Wild Geisha in the base game.

Number of Paylines: 1,014 – 12,288	RTP: 96.01%
Min Bet: 0.20	Max Bet: 100

It is a beautifully put-together video slot, with stone reels set on a background that reminds one of ancient Greece. The symbols here are coins and golden necklaces, earrings, and rings. The game has a set up of 5 reels, three rows, and 25 paylines, and an RTP of 96.02%.

Midas’ daughter from the story, Marigold, is the wild symbol here. She is worth 32 times your stake when you land five instances of her on a payline. The wild also replaces all the regular symbols as is typical of wilds. The Satyr scatter lands on reels 1, 3, and 5 only. When you land three of those anywhere on the reels on the same spin, you trigger the Golden Bonus Round. This comprises 12 free spins. During this round, if you land 1, 2, or 3 scatters, you get 1, 2, or 5 extra spins, respectively.

Coin symbols land on reels 1-4. They have a value of 1x your total bet up to 500x. You can only access your winnings from the coins when you land the Midas symbol on reel 5. When you land the coin symbols during the free spin feature, they are put in a pile on the left of the reels. The pile value starts at 3x and gets bigger as you go. When you land Midas, you are awarded the value of the coin stack at that time. The value of the stack does not reset, and it can be awarded multiple times.

Rome: The Golden Age takes you further back in history, offering a maximum win potential of 100,000x the stake.

If the days of Roman gladiators aren’t far enough for you, how about the dinosaur era? Dinosaur Rage takes you as far back as the Mesozoic Era. Have fun playing the slot game with enraged dinosaurs helping you bagging wins.

The Hand of Midas slot, meanwhile, brings to life a tale as old as time. It promises a max payout of up to 5,000x your bet. Offering the same max payout is Thunder Screech, which also exudes a touch of mysticism from native American ancient culture.

5 New Slots To Check Out

Some of the best new slots this week 6 of 2021 come from developers Just For The Win, NetEnt, Quickspin, Pragmatic Play, and Play’n GO. Let’s look closely at these developers’ slot releases this week.

Juicy Joker Mega Moolah

One of the largest progressive jackpots online is back in one of the new slots this week 6 of 2021. Microgaming partner Just For The Win serves us a slot that carries classic symbols — fruits and joker. Juicy Joker Mega Moolah sports a simple yet lively look with its 20-payline, 5×3 grid in a well-lit golden frame. The jackpot counter on the left, which also has a golden-colored frame, adds to the attraction.

As mentioned above, this slot has classic symbols of fruits and jokers making up the paytable. Just For The Win armed the game with three wilds — a regular wild, a Respin Wild, and a Juicy Wild. They all substitute for other symbols to form winning combinations and pays 25x your bet for five of a kind.

Increasing immense win possibilities are the Returning Wild and free spin features. However, the absolute star of this slot is the jackpot game. Three joker symbols landing on the middle three reels triggers the Progressive Jackpot Wheel.

The wheel awards either cash prizes or any one of the four jackpot prizes. Cash prizes up for grabs are 1x, 2x, or 3x the stake.

Rome: The Golden Age

NetEnt’s new addition to its library of slots this week 6 of 2021 relives the Roman gladiators’ days. Worry not because there will be no blood splattering on you while playing Rome: The Golden Age. The 5- reel grid sits high on an arena’s terrace with marble floors and columns and statues on either side. The grid is quite unusual with its rows in a 3-4-5-4-3 layout. Nevertheless, the game has 20 fixed paylines where at least three matching symbols should land to form winning combinations.

There are five low-paying and four premium symbols on the paytable. The wild, which substitutes for other symbols, also carries a value of 5x the stake for five of a kind. One special symbol to watch out for is the Golden Age symbol. This may turn into a Rome symbol that then turns into a wild symbol.

The Golden Age symbol is also your key to collecting multipliers from x1 to x1000. These multipliers are applied at the end of the free spins. So, collecting as many multipliers as possible before triggering the free spins round enhances your free spin winnings. Rome symbols also reveal wins from 0.5 up to 50x at the end of the bonus round.

Number of Paylines: 20	RTP: 96.06%
Min Bet: 0.10	Max Bet: 50

Dinosaur Rage

Quickspin’s Ark of Mystery slot heroine, Anna the Explorer, is ready to take on a new adventure this week. This time, you’ll accompany her as she travels back in time to face some temperamental dinosaurs in Dinosaur Rage. You don’t need to be nervous, as the prehistoric jungle on the background of the 5×4 game area looks refreshing. Moreover, the enraged dinosaurs will be of help in enhancing win potentials.

Pay symbols on the low side consist of teeth and bones designed to the shape of 10 to A royals. Dinosaurs and Anna comprise the premiums with our lovely heroine as the highest-paying symbol. She also stands 1×4 in size, while the dinosaurs come in 1×2 to 1×4 sizes. What’s even more impressive are the pay-anywhere symbols. You’ll score a win as long as such symbols land on paylines regardless if they aren’t adjacent with each other.

Pay-anywhere symbols are particularly beneficial during Dinosaur Rage! Free Spins. When 3, 4, or 5 scatters land, you’ll get 10, 15, or 25 free spins, respectively. In addition to free spins, you’ll also get 1, 2, or 3 upgrades, respectively. Upgrades will enrage a dinosaur at random, turning it into a pay-anywhere symbol. The scatter symbols can still land during the bonus round to award free spins and upgrade.

The last feature is the bonus buy for those who want a shortcut to the free spin round. You can pay 75x or 150x your bet for 3 or 4 scatters landing on the next spin.

Number of Paylines: 1,024	RTP: 96.11%
Min Bet: 0.20	Max Bet: 100

The Hand of Midas

Making our list of new slots this week 6 of 2021 is Pragmatic Play’s The Hand of Midas. Its huge 5×3 grid with 20 paylines almost covered what look like ruins of a once majestic castle chamber. Perhaps, the room belongs to King Midas himself? Your guess is as good as ours. What we’re sure of is you need at least 3 matching symbols from the leftmost reel onwards to score a win.

The paytable houses several symbols with six low-paying ones and six premiums. Five of a kind of premiums pay from 5x to 20x your bet. Wilds can only land on reels 2, 3, or 4 to replace other symbols and help form winning combinations. They carry random 1x, 2x, or 3x multipliers applied to the total win.

Trigger the free spin round with 3 scatter symbols, and you’ll get more rewarding features. There are wilds that become sticky and win multipliers that do not reset with each spin. Depending on your location, the buy feature may or may not be available to you. If available, you can purchase free spins for 100x, 200x, or 300x the stake.

Thunder Screech

Making it to our selection of new slots this week 6 of 2021 is Play’n GO’s Thunder Screech. The 5×3 grid stands high and mighty on a vast clearing, yet you can still see the picturesque view behind it. The great visual created an overall relaxing vibe as you try your luck on the 10-payline wooden-framed game area.

The symbols at the paytable follow the nature theme. Planks of wood were nailed together to form the low-paying 10 to A royals. Crows, foxes, skunks, otters, and beavers comprise the premiums, paying 10x to 75x your bet for five of a kind.

The Thunderbird totem wild can land on the middle three reels to help form winning combinations. The Call feature, which activates at random, adds 5 to 8 wilds on the grid. The Strike feature, which also triggers at random, turns regular wilds into Thunder Wilds. These wild symbols are sticky, carry win multipliers and trigger respins.

The dream catcher is the scatter symbols that trigger free spin when they land on reels 1, 3, and 5. During the bonus round, all regular wilds turn into Thunder Wilds. You can also be sure of a Thunder Wild landing on every spin. So, multipliers come into play during the round.

Number of Paylines: 10	RTP: 96.20% (Default)
Min Bet: 0.10	Max Bet: 100
Max Payout: 5,000x	Software Provider: Play’n GO

The paytable shows five notorious inmates comprising the premiums and typical prison items making up the low-pay symbols. You’ll have two kinds of wilds helping win ways, the regular wild and the split wild. The regular wild replaces all symbols to increase match possibility, while the split wild splits the symbol into two identical symbols.

Here, you can try digging some wins underground with a miner and his proud donkey. The hilarious duo will keep you company as you try your luck spinning this slot’s 5×7 reels.

Form a cluster of at least five matching symbols, and you’ll score a win. Symbols consist of rocks on the lower end and gems on the higher end. The diamond represents the wild symbols. It has no value of its own but helps enhance win possibilities by replacing other symbols to form winning combinations.

Improving your chance of winning are this slot’s bunch of features. There’s the cascade occurring after a win to remove winning symbols and make way for new ones. The Donkey Destruction meter gives rewards once winning symbols reaches a particular number. See below:

18 symbols – gets rid of all rock symbols.
40 symbols – gets rid of all gem and rock symbols.
50 symbols – gets rid of all the symbols leaving only the Golden Nuggets in view. It also awards up to 5 more Golden Nuggets.

Golden Nuggets without values contribute to the increase in win multipliers. The Miner’s Pick-axe symbol also doesn’t have a value, but they play a role in the Pick-axe Wild feature. Trigger the Mega Symbol and watch symbols turn into 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 sizes.

Lastly, the free spins feature works like the base game, but multipliers don’t reset between spins this time.

Loco The Monkey

Meet cute, friendly primates in Quickspin’s latest slot this week, Loco The Monkey. The slot’s grid with 5×4 reels and 50 paylines sit at the center of a lush, cartoony-looking jungle. As the action takes place in the jungle, it’s no surprise that the high-paying symbols consist of fruits. The 9-A royals meanwhile comprise the low-paying symbols.

To hit a win, you need at least three of a kind, except for the banana symbol. It pays for only two of a kind. Helping form winning combinations is Loco, which is the wild symbol.

At least four monkeys in view trigger the More Monkeys respin. This mechanism turns all triggering monkeys sticky for the duration of the round. There are also monkeys on the golden idol symbols, which act as the scatters. Three of the scatters activate the Monkey Frenzy free spins feature.

The bonus round starts with 10 free spins and comes with sticky wilds. Furthermore, all wilds landing during the round will remain sticky for the entire duration of the feature. When a new wild symbol lands on top of the sticky wild, the original wild will have a multiplier. This multiplier can increase up to x3. When 3 scatters land during the free spin, you’ll receive another 5 free spins increasing your chances of winning.

Kluster Krystals Megaclusters

Relax Gaming’s new slot this week boasts of the newest slot innovation from BTG, the Megacluster mechanism. The studio opted for a simple look for Kluster Krystals Megaclusters. Its transparent game area sits at the center of a stone platform flanked on either side by large stone columns.

To score a win in its 5×5 grid, 8 matching symbols need to form a cluster. The Megacluster mechanism helps in forming wins. After which, the avalanche feature sets in. There are plenty of other features to keep you from missing the wild symbol in this slot. For one thing, while the avalanche takes place, symbols get an upgrade when they land next to a winning cluster.

To further increase your winning chances, multipliers also upgrade when they are next to winning clusters. Symbols landing with a base multiplier 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, or 10x can get an upgrade up to three times. These multipliers are totaled and applied to the overall amount of wins once the sequence of avalanche ends.

Adding more thrill are three more random features that trigger after 6 avalanches take place. These are Krystal Vanish, Krystal Boost, and Krystal Kut. Their respective functions are as follows:

Removes a group of one colored symbol from the grid.
Upgrades by one stage all symbols in view.
Gets rid of all visible single-stage symbols.

The last feature is the free spins. To trigger this, you need a fully-upgraded (containing 4 segments) bonus symbol. Bonus symbols get an upgrade when it lands next to a winning cluster. When fully-upgraded, it rewards you with 7 free spins.

Cosmic Voyager

If you fancy the cosmic type of slots, then Thunderkick’s new slot this week, Cosmic Voyager, is a must-try. Cosmic dust surrounds the 5×3 grid with 10 paylines floating in the cosmos guarded by the cosmic voyager.

Here you’ll have low, medium, and high pay symbols with planetoids of five different colors making up the low ones. Mediums are made up of a cube, a pyramid, and what looked like an icosahedron. The cosmic voyager’s mask and the stars are the two high-paying symbols. Five of a kind of any of the two high-paying symbols will give you 100x to 250x your bet.

Feature-wise, there are the expanding symbols and the free spins to keep you interested in the game. Expanding symbols activate when a fully-stacked regular symbol lands on the first reel. When the expanding reel is active, you have a chance to win as much as 2,500x your take.

The Cosmic Voyager logo acts as both the wild and the scatter. When three lands in view, you’ll get 10 free spins, thereby activating the free spins features. You’ll also get 2x, 20x, or 200x your bet for 3, 4, or 5 scatters in view, respectively. Furthermore, you’ll get additional 10 free spins when at least 3 scatters land again during the free spin round. During the round, a mid or high-paying symbol landing on the first reel will expand to cover the entire reel. The expanding symbol feature then gets triggered.

Your Weekly Best New Slots |Week 37

February 23, 2024 Charlene Gatt

Game developers are, as always, restless in coming up with new thrilling slots every week to keep the online players entertained. There is no dull moment for online casino gamblers who love to play online slot games. No slot is ever alike as top game developers never run out of themes and storylines to use in the slot games that they are developing.

Quickspin and Play’n GO seem to agree on the theme of slots to release this week. They both give players an early Halloween treat with their ghost and treasure hunting themes. Meanwhile, Pragmatic Play who released a werewolf theme slot last week now offers its player with a blast from the past mixed with the modern theme kind of slot. We, at CompareCasino, always want to make sure you never miss the latest releases. So, we once again give you 3 of the new thrilling slots to get immersed this week.

Top 3 Thrilling New Slots This Week

Let’s take on an adventure as we look closely at this week’s slot releases. Read on and choose from the best new slot games this week from game developers Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, and Quickspin.

Ghost Glyph

With Ghost Glyph, Quickspin stays true to its principles in developing games that are not only entertaining but also tell a story. Although it is ghost-themed, you’ll still be able to sleep soundly at night not worrying about monsters lurking in the shadows.

Ghost Glyph is a slot game in a grid format that might be Quickspin’s early Halloween treat to its players. You will be greeted by a 7×7 grid and experience some of the game’s features which friendly ghosts introduce to you. Your aim is to get into a haunted mansion where the free spin is located.

Quickspin replaces the usual slot features with its own unique symbols and features to fit this slot’s theme. The game starts with a tumble mechanism. This will free the board from winning clusters, and new symbols fill the gaps. You’ll have a chance to win consecutively in just one spin.

A Ghost Glyph appears in one empty space when the winning cluster was removed. The Ghost Glyph symbol functions as the classic Wild symbol. It takes the place of another symbol to allow players to have a winning combination.

You won’t see the scatter symbol in Ghost Glyph, but you’ll never miss it because of the Ghost Urns. The Ghost Glyph symbol will activate the Ghost Urns. The urns come in four colors, and each color has its own purpose.

Yellow Urn. This will place 4-10 random wild symbols on the reels.
Green Urn. This will select a low-paying symbol and make all instances of it into another low-paying symbol.
Red Urn. This will select a low-paying symbol and takes away all instances of it in the game.
Blue Urn. This is your ticket to the bonus game and gives you three free spins.

What We Love About Ghost Glyph

If there’s one thing that makes Ghost Glyph lovable, it’s the Paranormal meter feature. This fills up every free spin and has the power to unlock Massive Wilds, which gives players more chances to win big.

Number of Paylines: Cluster Pays	RTP: 96.18%
Minimum Bet: 0.20	Maximum Bet: 100
Maximum Payout: 2260 x bet	Software Provider: Quickspin

Octopus Treasure

Go under the sea and collect keys to unlock treasures with Play’n Go’s newest offering to online slot lovers — the Octopus Treasure. It wasn’t called the Octopus Treasure without any octopus in it. This giant sea creature makes its presence felt by interfering with your game from time to time. It sits behind the transparent grid that consists of 5 reels and 20 paylines.

Octopus Treasure’s paytable has eight symbols with pots, coins, jug, and crown representing the high pays. The card faces (spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds) make up the low pays. The wild is coral-covered. Except for the scatter symbol, the wild substitutes for all symbols in the game.

There’s a chance for a Key symbol to show up on the 3rd reel when you make a spin. The octopus will help you out in collecting the key and unlocking the treasure chest. Inside the chest is any one of the game’s four reel modifiers:

Wild Coins. You will pick three coins from a bunch that floats from the bottom. Each of the coins represents a symbol, and its similar symbols on the reels will turn wild.
Gold Pile. The octopus will help you win more by upgrading random symbols when the chest you open contains a gold pile.
Treasure Grab. The octopus collects symbols and pays instant prizes for the symbols collected.
Wild Reels. When a chest reveals a wild reel, you can pick a pot that will turn an entire reel to a stacked wild.

Watch out when 3 pearl scatters happen to land on reels number 1, 3, and 5. This will activate the Key Respins where only the keys can be seen on the reels. These keys are collected and replaced with Treasure spins. Each spin can activate one of the four reel modifiers.

What We Love About Octopus Treasure

Not having a limit to the number of times a Treasure Spin may be won is something to love about. In addition, there is a chance for a multiplier of either x2, x3, x5, or x10 to be applied to any win when a feature is activated. Lastly, take note that you have a chance to win 5000x your bet on this Play’n GO latest slot offering.

Ultra Hold and Spin

Travel down memory lane with this new slot game from Pragmatic Play. Ultra Hold and Spin lets online casino players get a feel of classic casino slots mixed with the features of the modern ones. Pragmatic Play equipped this game with a slot machine that resembles the old brick-and-mortar slots. You’ll get a 3-reel slot and 5 paylines.

The Fiery Wild symbols will give you combo wins and substitute for any symbol except the Money symbol. It can appear on any of the slot’s 3 reels. If luck is on your side and you happen to get a winning combo through the Wild symbol, the Wild symbol will cover the whole reel. This will allow more combinations. Thus, your chances of adding more to your winning increases.

The scatter symbol is nowhere to be found with Money symbols having the same mechanics. It can have a value between 1x to 20x. Three of these symbols will activate the Respins. With Respins, the Money symbol will stick on the reels, and your winnings will have an additional 4 Respins. When you get more Money symbols, your Respin counter will reset. Thus, your winning combinations will have some more multipliers.

Pragmatic Play achieved its classic theme aim with Ultra Hold and Spin’s interface looking like decades-old slots. The symbols used are also very simple. These include the black X, watermelons, strawberries, plums, cherries, oranges, gold stars, bar logos, crown coins, lucky 7s, and fiery wild logos.

If you’re someone who fancies classic slots, you’ll find Ultra Hold and Spin to be enjoyable. That is if you don’t mind a few modern features that Pragmatic Play includes in the game.

What We Love About Ultra Hold and Spin

The Diamond symbol is something to look out for. This symbol will give you the highest possible win of 500x multiplier. With big developer Pragmatic Play behind this game, it’s as reliable as it can get. It’s worthy to note that this slot game has an RTP of 96.70%. That’s a high figure considering the classic setup of this game.

Number of Paylines: 5	RTP: 96.70%
Minimum Bet: 0.05	Maximum Bet: 250
Maximum Payout: 500 x bet	Software Provider: Pragmatic Play
