Quickspin Announces New Pokies Release for December
Tia Winter | 29 November 2016
With the release date set for 14 December, 2016, Quickspin’s latest mobile pokies game has players from all corners of the globe waiting in anticipation. Phoenix Sun is the title of this new pokies game, and offers a mystical theme that’s a bit different to the usual Christmas-themed December releases.
Quickspin has based their new pokie on the mythical phoenix, a bird that is legendary for being immortal: bursting into flames, and then rising from the ashes to live again. The game takes place over 5 reels and 243 Ways to Win, which count any matching symbols on adjacent reels as a winning combination.
Re-spins Feature Adds Excitement
The famed developer has kept things simple when it comes to their new pokies’ design, focusing instead on its features. At first glance, the top half of the reels of Phoenix Sun are covered in gold, while the bottom half contain the traditional 10 to A pokies symbols along with various mythical statues and idols.
This is where the innovative Phoenix Rising Re-spin feature kicks in. In this bonus feature, the gold portion of the base game reels will slowly melt away as winning combinations land, eventually unlocking an incredible 7,776 ways to win and a free spins bonus game.
7,776 Ways To Win and 8 Free Spins
The phoenix Wild symbol will trigger the feature, and landing a fiery Wild on a winning payline will trigger a Phoenix Rising Re-spin. For each Wild that lands, three golden tiles covering the reels will be removed.
The re-spins will continue until no more Wilds appear on the reels, but landing 5 Wilds will remove all of the gold tiles and trigger the free spins game. With 8 free spins up for grabs here, there will undoubtedly be multiple chances to win big thanks to the 7,776 ways to win that have just been unlocked.
With medium volatility and plenty of entertaining features, the sneak preview of Phoenix Sun has garnered plenty of attention from mobile players. The mobile pokies game will soon be available to New Zealand players too, who can enjoy it at multiple trusted Denada Casinos this December.
An RTP of 96.08% will be standard across the board for both mobile and online versions of Phoenix Sun, leaving it up to players to decide the ultimate popularity of Quickspin’s latest release.
