Take A Swing with Microgaming Golf Online Slots

 

The best golf pros like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy will be teeing off at the Augusta course this weekend for the U.S. Masters trophy and Green Jacket. Online casino players can drive and putt sitting at home on some fantastic video slots. All the leading online casino software providers have golf themed games in their portfolio, but this article focuses on two from Microgaming. These are live at Microgaming online casinos like Royal Vegas, Jackpot City and Spin Vegas.

The Argyle Open is a more serious type of slot game. It is modelled after a major golf championship like the Masters. There are several symbols related to golf. These include The Argyle Open logo, boots, glove, clubs, hole, flag, trophy and the four golf pros who are vying to be the champion. The Argyle Open logo is the wild symbol and because it appears stacked on reels the payouts are usually immense. The hole is the scatter symbol, which triggers the Tournament Bonus. This is a game played on the second screen and it takes you to a golf course. You begin by driving the ball off the tee and get a bonus depending on how far you hit the ball. The second stroke is taken on the course for another bonus. The third and final stroke is played on the green. You can win up to 20 free spins depending on how close you get the golf ball to the hole. The payouts in the free spins are multiplied five times.

Lucky Shot on the other hand is an amateur golfer’s party on the course. The symbols include an assortment of golfers like petite blonde, nerd with glasses, wanna-be pro and veteran. Other golf symbols are trophy, golf cart, ball washer, set of clubs, golf ball, gopher and Lucky Shot logo. This slot game does not have a wild symbol, but there are two scatter symbols leading to bonus games. Three or more gophers anywhere on the reels will instantly multiply you total bet up to 50 times. They also trigger the bonus game on the second screen. You are not taken to the golf course, but to a driving range where you get paid for learning the perfect swing. You get to pick up to five gopher targets and win bonuses as you hit them. If you line you three or more golf carts on adjacent reels, the free spins bonus gets activated. Here you get 9 or 18 free spins and all payouts will be doubled.
