Multi-Player Roulette Diamond Edition

For me, part of the thrill of playing roulette is the competition between the people gathered around the wheel. The online casino is still my favourite place to play, but I sometimes miss the interaction with other players. This is why I am looking forward to the release of the new casino games at Vegas Palms Online Casino next month.

Microgaming has created Multi-Player Roulette Diamond Edition, which is more like an interactive community of players than just another casino game. The graphics are the superb quality that the software giant is known for, and predominantly focused on the roulette wheel – for a very good reason.

Microgaming have given this game a chat function with a difference – now you can use the 3D wheel zoom (and the autoplay function so you don’t miss a spin) to check out other gamers’ play. Talking to other players, watching how they play and knowing they can watch you, certainly adds to the gaming rush!

It’s not all spins, luck and voyeurism, though – there is an element of control, too. You can set the speed of your game by choosing between 20, 40 or 60 second spins. There’s also a wide betting range available, so you find a betting comfort zone that suits you.

Ultimately, this game is about combining the thrill of competition with the comfort of online gambling. I can’t wait to try it out!

Congratulations to this week’s big winner!

There’s nothing nicer than sharing good news, and a big Fortune Lounge winner is always the best kind of news on an online casino blog! Michelle from Australia was playing the Mardi Gras Fever slot on Friday 3 February when she hit the jackpot and won a whopping $35,496. What a fabulous way to start the weekend!

Mardi Gras Fever is a 5-reel online slot with 20 paylines. On top of the fabulous Microgaming graphics and sleek gameplay, it also has two Scatter symbols as well as two different bonus games. One of the bonus games lets you pick 3 windows out of a possible 12 to win a bonus prize, while the other is the Free Spins Bonus Game – this is the one where you can win really big money, because as you play the five free spins, anything you win is multiplied by ten.

I haven’t played this slot in a while, but since Michelle’s big win, I think I may just have a little fever for some Mardi Gras slot action!  If Mardi Gras Fever isn’t your kind of fun, then why not try some other online slots like Moonshine, Pub Fruity or Deep Sea Dosh instead? They have all been hot recently! Who knows, it could be your name on the Winners Wall soon!
