The leading software provider Microgaming has released some online slots games that form a series. The individual slots games have independent themes but have something common in the structure. Recent Microgaming slots series like Sneak-A-Peek and Retro Reels are quite well known. But the first Microgaming series was the Golden Goose series. The Microgaming Golden Goose series has four online slots. The interesting aspect is that these four games also exist as independent slot games. For the series they have been subtitled Golden Goose, changed a bit and fitted with an identical set of bonus games. These online slot games are Crazy Chameleons, Genies Gems, Totem Treasure and Winning Wizards.

Crazy Chameleons belies its name, because the online slot has a beach theme. The sun sports sunglasses and the other thematic symbols are surf boards, gulls, sun tan lotion and florid shorts in shocking pink. The crazy chameleon is the wild symbol and awards the highest fixed jackpot of 5,000 coins. Genie’s Gems predictably has an Arabian Nights theme with symbols like minaret, magic lamp, magic carpet and scimitar. The genie is the wild symbol and it triples payouts when making up a winning combination. Totem Treasure takes symbols from the American Indian culture like squaw, eagle, tepee, pipe and drum. The largest fixed jackpot in the Golden Goose slots is in Totem Treasure. It is a whopping 12,000 coins. Winning Wizards has the popular magic theme with symbols like the wizard’s staff, spell book, magic potion and ring. The wizard is the wild symbol and offers the maximum payout of 10,000 coins.

Now many software providers use the concept of special bonus games or other features being available to only those players who have made an extra bet. Golden Goose slots had this feature ages ago. In order to activate the bonus games in Golden Goose, players have to click on the Golden Goose Bet button. This activates the maximum paylines with maximum number of coins per payline and also places a side bet of additional five coins per payline. This does not guarantee that the bonus games will be awarded to the player. For that to happen, the Golden Goose has to appear after a spin. This event takes place randomly and randomly activates one of the four bonus games.

The first bonus game is the Golden Reels bonus game. The Golden Goose places a golden egg in each symbol position and player has to select eggs to win the bonus credits displayed. The second bonus game is the Golden Egg bonus game. The Golden Goose appears on the screen and lays a golden egg, which reveals the bonus credits awarded. The third bonus game is called Money or the Egg. The Golden Goose asks the player to choose between a pile of money and a golden egg. Players who want bonus credits should choose the money and players who want free spins should choose the egg. But the numbers will be revealed only after the choice is made. The fourth bonus game is Golden Card bonus game. The player has to choose a card from those held by the Golden Goose. It will display the number of free spins and the multiplier won by the player.

All the Golden Goose slot games can be played at Microgaming online casinos like All Slots, Spin Palace, Roxy Palace and Gaming Club.
