There are many summer themed slot games at online casinos, but none as good as Summer Holiday from Microgaming. Summer Holiday was released in 2009 and since then it has been the summer holiday destination for all online casino slots players. Summer Holiday is a 100 paylines slot game with four rows of symbols across the reels. This was before the 243 ways to win slots were introduced by Microgaming. That itself was a big attraction. But it is able to compete with such slot games on the merit of its visual appeal and gaming features.

The Summer Holiday slot could be a text book example of how to execute a theme. The slot game begins with an introductory video clip. The symbols on the reels appear as photographs in a holiday album. The graphics, both in the symbols and in the background exhibit photographic realism. The high paying symbols depict the outdoor activities undertaken during summer. Some of these are boating, cycling, fishing and swimming. The normally used playing card icons as low paying symbols have been done away with. They have been replaced by refreshing and tasty foods of the summer such as fruits, drinks, cold cuts, cheese and bread.

The wild symbol is the Summer Holiday logo. It has been designed to evoke everything that a summer holiday stands for. The color shades are hot but the calligraphy is cool. The wild symbol appears stacked on the reels, usually in stacks of four. You will often find several reels full of the yellow summer holiday logo dancing animatedly while you collect massive payouts. The duck is the scatter symbol. It awards scatter payouts and triggers the free spins bonus round. Three symbols in the trigger award 15 free spins, four symbols in the trigger award 20 free spins and five symbols in the trigger award 25 free spins. The payouts are tripled during the free spins and the feature can be retriggered. After the free spins are played out you will be given an exciting choice that is by no means easy. If you are happy with your winnings you can collect them and move back to the base game. However, if you are not happy then you have two options. You can play the free spins again, but will have to accept what you get the second time around. Or you can go for a mystery bonus credit.
