Microgaming is the major software provider for the online gambling industry. Over the past two years, Microgaming has launched over 100 new casino games, including more than 50 slot machines. Each of these new slot games has its own unique theme, ranging from chocolate to dinosaurs. This article summarizes 5 of Microgaming's newest slot games, including Big Kahuna, Tunzamunni, Tomb Raider, Ladies Nite, and Gift Wrap.



Big Kahuna is a 5-reel, 9-pay-line video slot machine with a jungle theme. Big Kahuna accepts coins from 1¢ up to $1.00. One or more Big Kahuna symbols on the pay-line create winning combinations.

Tunzamunni is a 3-reel, single pay-line progressive slot. Its jackpot starts at $10,000 and sometimes goes above $100,000. With a maximum bet of just 25¢, Tunzamunni is an ideal game for low rollers. You win the Tunzamunni jackpot by playing the maximum bet of 25¢ and by hitting a White, Red, and Blue Seven (in that exact order) on the pay-line.

Introduced in October, 2004, Tomb Raider is probably the most successful online slot machine game to date.

Ladies Nite is a 5-reel, 9-pay-line video slot machine that appeals to the ladies. Its theme is fun and fashion. You enter into a world of hunky waiters, pina coladas, and glittering dance floors. Two or more Glitterball symbols on the pay-line create winning combinations. Two symbols pay out $10, three symbols pay out $200, four symbols pay out $2,000, and all five Glitterball symbols pay out $10,000.

Gift Rap is a 5-reel, 25-pay-line video slot machine with a traditional Christmas theme. There are plenty of elves, spinning tops, teddy bears, and music boxes.

Whether you play slots online or blackjack in Vegas, remember to only gamble with the money that you can afford to lose. Decide beforehand how much you wish to spend, and don't exceed your spending limit should you lose. Never gamble when you are tired or irritable. Finally, have fun and quit while you are ahead. By following these simple rules of gambling, your casino experience will be more fun-filled and enjoyable.
