The Vault slot tops a stunning month of April releases from Microgaming

There's lots of big news this month from Microgaming and top of the list is the news that the Isle of Man-based company has agreed yet another supply deal with a company to produce games exclusively for the Microgaming brand.

This new deal is with the Scandinavian-based company Snowborn Games. Based out of offices in Helsinki and Stockholm, the company has a strong background in game analytics and has been designed to produce high quality games that deliver for customers in terms of excitement and entertainment.

The first product of this alliance between the two companies will be released on the 28^th April and is called The Vault. Not to be confused with the TV game show of the same name, this slot game is in fact based around the life and derring-do of a skilled cat burglar, Jewel, and his attempts to retrieve the world's biggest diamond from the aforementioned vault.

The slot will be a 5-reel, high volatility game that has 20 individual pay lines in play. As well as an assortment of outstanding graphics, animations and sounds, the slot will also boast a large number of bonus features including re-spins, Free Spins and Stacked Wilds.

Will Jewel be able to claim "The Pink Dawn" as this elegant diamond is known from the vault in Paris, or will her efforts be thwarted?

To help her there are bonus features which can be triggered in the game. Two or more of the bonus symbols landed on the reels will trigger a 'Respin Bonus' where the bonus symbols will remain in place on the reels, while the other reels re-spin to try and produce a win, or another bonus symbol, If you can land another bonus symbol, you will trigger an additional re-spin and this will continue until you land no further bonus symbols on a re-spin.

The only other way to end this bonus is to trigger the Vault Bonus game on a re-spin. This will award you 10 Free Spins and every win during the bonus round will come with a 3x multiplier as standard. However, the good news is that it is possible to further increase the number of Free Spins you are awarded and you can also increase the value of the Multiplier too.

Speaking about the partnership between the two companies and its forthcoming release, the CEO at Snowborn Games Bjorn Zethraeus stated:

"Through Microgaming's content aggregation platform, players will be able to enjoy our innovative games with leading operators in all major markets. The Vault displays stunning 3D art and a beautiful visual setting in addition to elegant symbolism to enhance the game's atmosphere. We are proud to team up with Microgaming and look forward to providing them with many more exclusive games in the coming months."

In a similar vein, the Chief Commercial Officer at Microgaming Jean-Luc Ferriere commented:

"We are pleased to add Snowborn Games to our growing content partner network and look forward to working with the team, who are set to expand our diverse portfolio with unique and entertaining content, starting with their debut title, The Vault."

Customers will get the chance to win a jackpot of up to 5,000x your total bet, plus experience the exciting 3D graphics and noir design when the slot is released on the 28^th April 2020. However, prior to that, Microgaming also has a number of other top games set for release across the month.

Other big Microgaming releases in April 2020

With The Vault coming later on in the month, there are a number of other games that are due to be released by Microgaming and their partners in the intervening period between now and then. First on the horizon is a brand new Just For The Win slot game called Anderthals.

The developers of games such as Wonder Woods and Treasure Skyland have produced another exciting game, a 40 pay line slot that has the chance for players to trigger any one of a number of randomised bonus features on every spin.

These random features include Multipliers, Expanding Wilds, Respin Bonus and Free Spins and the game offers players the chance to win up to 2,219x your standard bet. Anderthals will be available to play across the Microgaming network from the 7^th April, and remember to look out for our exclusive review of this new slot later this week!

A week or so after this release, the next Microgaming slot will hit casinos and this will be a new game from Crazy Tooth Studio, the producers of such hits Seven 7s and the unusual The Incredible Balloon Machine. This new game is called Diamond Force and it will be a five reel game that boasts the exciting 1024 ways to win format as opposed to standard pay lines.

The slot features some outstanding graphics and a number of mighty heroes on the reels and if you can group heroes together across the reels, they will Team Up in the Team Up Feature to offer you a chance of a sizeable win. The slot also features Team Up Bonus Spins as well as some outstanding graphics.

This slot game will hit casinos on the 14^th April but that will not be the only game released into Microgaming casinos that day as also on that date the new All41 Studios slot game Arena of Gold will be available for customers to play for the first time.

The developers of Book of Atem, Lock a Luck, Magic of Sahara and Le Kaffee Bar have produced some interesting games for Microgaming over the past year or so and Arena of Gold will follow in a similar vein. Based on Roman times, this 5 reel, 25 pay line slot includes not just a Free Spins bonus round, which also features Merged Reels, but also a Golden Respins Bonus feature, which you can trigger when you land six or more of the coin symbols on the reel.

As always, we will bring you detailed reviews of all these games over the coming weeks and months and we are confident that among them there are going to be a few crackers to add to Microgaming's already extensive and high-quality portfolio of games.
