It appears that Microgaming has become totally untamed with its releases which it launches in multitude each month. In June 2012, the company presented another slot in its Untamed series, so after the largely successful “Bengal Tiger”, players will be able to enjoy another fantastic title – “Untamed - Giant Panda”.
“Untamed – Giant Panda” Characteristics
This video slot’s truly something special, featuring a state-of-the-art machine with 5 reels and 243 Ways to Win. It’s themed on one of the endangered species – Giant Panda, which is presented in their natural habitat – bamboo forest, with views over the beautiful Chinese mountains.
The game’s unique in more than one way – just like its predecessor, “Bengal Tiger”, it involves some thrilling special features which include Your Gamble feature, Collect-A-Wild, Lucky Nudge, and Brilliant Wilds. All these provide numerous chances to win a generous prize or two, which is why this slot ensured a great deal of popularity even before its official launch.
In addition to this, “Untamed - Giant Panda” is a game that will fit most players’ budgets thanks to its coin denominations that range from 0.01 and 0.05. In return, it provides punters with the opportunity to win up to 91,000.00 in both base game and free spins.
Special Features
“Untamed – Giant Panda” is all about features, as we’ve previously established.
Your Gamble is one of them, and it’s an interesting take on the traditional Gamble feature. In the case of this game and its predecessor, the feature includes the planet Earth and an indicator on which the player chooses their gamble odds and then bets from his or her individual win box. If the indicator lands in the green sector of the planet, the win is increased to the amount in the 'gamble to win box'. If not, you’ll lose whatever you’ve wagered on it.
When it comes to the other feature, Collect-A-Wild, it comes in shape of Giant Panda logo Wild symbol which whenever you get it brings a Wild token to the counter below it. Collect four of these and the entire reel will turn Wild on the next spin and remains there for 4 spins, bringing a fantastic winning opportunity.
Also, if you manage to get 3, 4, or five of the scattered bejeweled eyes on the reels, you’ll activate Lucky Nudge free spins – 10 of them, during which an automatic 'nudge' feature appears if the eye is 'peeking' at the edge of a reel. Add to all this Brilliant Wilds, which appear during Free Spins, and serve to hold the Wilds that land on screen for the remaining cycle of the player's Free Spins.
Conclusion:
Judging this book by its covers, it appears all of us slots fans are in for a real treat! It’s definitely a dignified successor of the previous “Untamed” release, and we surely hope to see many others like it in near future.
