Microgaming has announced a new video slot titled Exotic Cats that will go live next month. It features a bunch of big wild cats. However, the Microgaming portfolio has two fantastic slot machines based individually on the two biggest wild cats. Lion’s Pride and Untamed Bengal Tiger have been playing at online casinos like All Slots, Lucky Nugget and Spin Palace for some years.

Lion’s Pride is fittingly a 100 paylines video slot with the standard 5 reels and 3 rows. The high paying symbols are members of the pride that include the lion, the lioness and the cub. The lion and lioness also pay in mixed combinations. The tawny coloured playing card icons blend in with the scene. The tribal mask is the scatter symbol and the game logo is a stacked wild symbol. There are some classy win animations in this video slot, particularly the majestic roar of the lion. Three or more mask symbols anywhere on the reels trigger up to 25 free spins, depending on the number of scatter symbols in the triggering spin. A multiplier of 2x, 3x, 5x or 10x is randomly awarded for each free spin. The free spins can be retriggered. Lion’s Pride also offers the Microgaming gamble game that can be optionally activated after any winning spin. It gives players an opportunity to double or quadruple the payout by winning the game. If they lose the game, however, then the payout will be lost.

Untamed Bengal Tiger was the first slot game in the Untamed series that focuses on endangered species. It is a 234 ways to win slot game. The Bengal Tiger is found in the delta of the river Ganges. The slot game recreates the vanishing habitat. The high paying symbols include the tiger, the tigress, the cub, a herd of deer and the Bengal forest. The win animations are awesome in this slot game as well like the tigress playing with the cub. The low paying symbols are the playing card icons. The game logo is the wild symbol. When four of these are accumulated below any reel, the reel will turn wild for the next four paid spins. The tiger's eye awards scatter payouts and triggers 20 free spins. The feature includes Trailing Wilds, where wild symbols trail down the reels in successive free spins. The Lucky Nudge feature helps in activating the free spins. A scatter symbol just above or below any reel will automatically nudge onto the displayed rows to increase the chance of triggering the free spins. Untamed Bengal Tiger has a more complex gamble game called Your Gamble.
