Immortal Romance

Immortal Romance (Microgaming): Review

While it’s quite true that many online slot developers have designed and created games that utilise the vampire theme in them, there are some that do it better than others. Microgaming is one of those developers, and that’s very much clear with the Immortal Romance slot offering. Featuring the characters of Michael, Sarah, Amber and Troy, perhaps the most riveting part about the background of this story is that each of these characters has…well, a background story! That’s right, Microgaming has made sure to inform us of the fact that both of the male characters are vampires, while the two females are humans ready to fall for them.

Yet, with all that background information aside, Immortal Romance also provides players with a very enthralling slot. Its setup is quite standard for an online slot offering, featuring 5 reels and 3 rows altogether. This is joined by a total of 243 ways to win, which is always an appealing inclusion in a video slot. To add to this, you’re able to easily customise your bet by choosing between the coin values of 0.01 and 0.02 and then opting between one and 10 coins being active per spin. This means that your wager can rest anywhere between 30 cents and 60€ per spin. You’re also able to use the game’s “Bet Max” button to obtain the maximum wager instantly.

The overall appeal of this game rests initially on the visual side of things, not to mention the incredible soundtrack, and Immortal Romance doesn’t fail to impress. The story seems to take place in a gothic church or cathedral, with gargoyles being present above the reels. Meanwhile, the first of the slot’s symbols are present in the often-seen playing card symbols running from 9 through to A. From the K and the A, you’re able to receive rewards of up to 5 times your in-play stake. Then comes a symbol of a piece of paper and quill, an external shot of a gothic castle and the character of Amber, Troy, Michael and finally, Sarah come next, with the latter of these providing 33,33 times your stake.

You will also find that Microgaming has chosen to include some entertaining special features too. These ensure that you have a thoroughly enhanced gaming experience, and they operate alongside the base gameplay perfectly.

Immortal Romance (Microgaming): Features

If you’re going to have a compelling slot game about vampires and romance, then you need to have some special features to boost this. Fortunately, Immortal Romance isn’t short on these, starting with the inclusion of its Wild Symbol. This comes in the form of the slot’s own logo and when it appears, it will substitute for all other standard symbols, except the scatter. Not only that, but if it does substitute and help you with forming a winning combination, it will double the pay-out for that win as well!

You could also be on the receiving end of the randomly triggered Wild Desire feature while playing Immortal Romance. If this does come into effect, it will randomly turn up to five of the reels into wild reels. One thing to note, is that the free spins round of Immortal Romance cannot trigger during the Wild Desire feature, but let’s face it, with up to five wild reels and a max win that exceeding 12,000 times your stake, do you really need it to?

It’s the game’s scatter symbol that activates something known as The Chamber of Spins in this slot, though. The scatter of Immortal Romance is present in the shape of a lion-head door knocker. Bringing 3, 4 or 5 of this symbol into view anywhere will activate such and it is the characters of the game who dictate the number of free spins and additional features that you receive. These operate in the following way:

• Amber provides you with 10 free spins with all wins multiplied by 5x. Free spins can also be re-triggered by the appearance of three or more scatter symbols during the round.
• Troy offers up 15 free spins with the Vampire Bats Feature incorporated. This sees vampire bats randomly appear on the reels and in the process, turn symbols into double or triple multipliers. Up to 6x multipliers can be awarded. This free spins round is available from the 5^th trigger of the Chamber of Spins.
• Michael rewards you with 20 free spins and the Rolling Reels Feature. Consecutive wins during this round will increase the feature’s multiplier up to 5x, with the Rolling Reels feature providing the multiple consecutive wins to you. This free spins round is available from the 10^th trigger of the Chamber of Spins.
• Sarah provides players with 25 free spins and the Wild Vine Feature. During this free spins round, watch out for the appearance of the Wild Vine symbol on the third reel. This randomly transforms symbols into additional substitutes. Furthermore, the appearance of two, three, four or five scatter icons will re-trigger 1, 2, 3 or 4 more free spins, respectively. This free spins round is available from the 15^th trigger of the Chamber of Spins.

Immortal Romance (Microgaming): Final Verdict

Slot games will always be compelling when there’s a great story behind them, and Microgaming takes that a step farther with Immortal Romance, providing back stories for its four main characters along with a legendary soundtrack. To add to that, there are some intriguing features for you to activate within, which makes it possible for you to potentially win the maximum overall pay-out of 729,000€. It’s also great for a game such as this to have 243 ways for you to win during base game and free spins.

Speaking of free spins, the fact that there are four different variations of this to trigger via the Chamber of Spins makes it even more attractive. And when you combine the double pay-out wild symbol and the randomly triggered Wild Desire features into this, it’s clear that Microgaming has constructed something truly fascinating with Immortal Romance.
