Germinator fans will be delighted that it is now available at Virgin Casino.
Since its release last year, unusual slot game Germinator has only been available on Microgaming's Flash software. However, Germinator is set to reach a wider audience as Quickfire is now offering it to clients.
Germinator's reels consist of a six by six matrix, with 12 horizontally and vertically formed paylines. One coin valued between £0.05 and £2.00 must be wagered per payline.
The symbols comprise 5 “germs” with a multiplier value between 0.2 and 10. Three or more like germ symbols appearing consecutively on a payline triggers a payout. The winning chain of symbols can appear anywhere in the payline. The payout is the product of the number of germ symbols in the chain and the associated multiplier, with each chain paid out separately.
For example, the yellow germ has a multiplier of 10. Four consecutive yellow germs in a payline wins 20 coins. A chosen coin value of £2.00 would therefore win £40.00 in credits.
Virgin Casino now offers Germinator through Quickfire, with two unique features. After the initial payout, the germs in the winning combinations disappear, replaced by the germ symbols above. Winning combinations on the new arrangement can result in unlimited, cost-free further payouts.
The Medi bonus game, activated by three or more capsule symbols at the game's conclusion, is another unusual feature of Germinator at Virgin casino. Clicking on a germ symbol removes all of that particular germ, replacing them with the germs above. Again, this can lead to more winnings at no extra cost. This bonus game requires skill and logic, as removing an infrequently occurring germ reduces the chances of further winning combinations.
