Each month there is at least one casino that will offer us a new online slot machine.  What the machine will have is always a surprise because there are numerous themes to choose from.  Just last month we saw a new movie character hit the slot machines.  Virgin Online Casino has not gone as grand with movie characters, but they certainly have an interesting premise.  This time the online casino slot machine is called ‘Beat the Bank.’

In a time where banks are struggling due to bad loans, and the government looking to help them out in certain ways, it feels good to be able to beat the bank.  This new slot machine has five reels with twenty pay lines.  The other interesting thing, besides the name of the slot, is who created it.  Virgin Online casino has a deal with NextGen Gaming.  All too often we hear about online casino software companies Rival, RTG, and Micrograming.  So to have a different software company in the mix will definitely raise eyebrows.  Can they compete with these top three?  You’ll just have to get a Virgin Casino account to find out.

In Beat the Bank you will be going on a bank heist with background images dealing with banks and bank robbers.  There is also a bank vault as part of the imagery.  The symbols include such things as diamonds, policemen, maps, surveillance cameras, and others that you would expect for a bank robbery.  There is plenty of animation with Beat the Bank and it is definitely going to interest many players.  After all, you as the thief will be trying to open the safe with plenty of bank notes hidden inside.

The thief will appear as a wild symbol on reels 2, 3, or 4.  If you get the right combination at the end of the spin you get a free spin.  You could potentially earn up to 15 free spins on the game with a three times multiplier on the payout.  The Safe scatter symbol will help trigger a bonus game if you get three of them.  In the bonus game you move to a second screen in which you have to choose between two safes.  One has money and the other cannot be opened.  Every time you find the correct safe your prize will double, which gives you a 1024 times bet.  With odds like these Beat the Bank may become highly popular.
