Replete with fierce extra action from Free Spins, Scatter and Wild rewards the game is a combination of 5 reel, 25 pay-line slot and wheel of fortune style progressive jackpot excitement.

Lions are Wild in every sense and can double wins, while Scatters are featured as Headhunter trophies: hit some of these and players will open the door to 15 Free Spins that re-trigger and triple all wins throughout the game. This feature-rich action would in itself guarantee a gripping gaming experience, but players can also spin the sunny Jackpot Wheel in a quest for the best on a four tiered progressive.

Microgaming's other video slots this month include Flying Circus, which brings players great opportunities to win big and earn free spins. The theme is the famous traveling circus Big Top and leading the action is the Ringmaster who represents the Wild symbol that substitutes for other symbols to make up winning combinations for excitement and reward. Then there's Coco the Clown who adds to the entertainment by multiplying bets whilst acting as the Scatter. And 3 or more of this fun figure on the reels and the truly huge Free Spins feature is triggered, granting players 25 Free Spins and possible prizes, and even re-triggering during the spins to deliver yet another 25 Spins.

Players move through a series of 3 vast underground tombs carved from the living rock - each grander than the one before. Each shelters 3 sarcophagi, or massive granite coffins and the player must find within one of these the key to life - an ankh or key that will open the door to the next tomb.6 w/ ]" H5 k6 h" C$ A5 c

Dog Father is a tongue-in-cheek trip to the doggie Underworld that gives a bright new face to this 20 line video slot with great opportunities to score through Wild, Scatter, Free Spins and great Bone-us features. Making that Wild offer you won't want to refuse is the Dog Father in person, a tough but flashy bulldog with a taste for expensive cigars and big bankrolls. When he appears he substitutes for all other symbols except scatter and bonus, helping players to build up a cache of cash. You'll be pleased to see the Scatter flea, too: it triggers a generous 13 Free Spins during which all wins are tripled.

The aim is to beat the dealer's hand by getting a higher value hand without exceeding 21, or by the dealer's hand going bust. Double Exposure Multi-Hand Blackjack does not allow for Surrender or Insurance (since both dealer cards are exposed). Player blackjacks beat dealer blackjacks, the dealer hits on soft 17 and the dealer wins on all ties, except for a tied blackjack.+ O% R% K$ Y: H4 p% o
