Filed under: Casino — Tags: , — OCE News @ 12:00 am

Top Game, a recent online game software provider, launched a video slots game with Christmas as its theme. This new game is aptly called the Merry Bells which coincides perfectly with the Christmas traffic in all online casinos. The mood of the festive season is perfectly portrayed through this new release, and as the game reels spin, you get to hear the ever-popular Jingle Bells playing. The wild symbol is Santa’s home which gives the largest fixed jackpot. The animation quality is praiseworthy with snow beginning to fall and snowman skiing past Santa’s home. Other popular game symbols are the reindeer, elf, penguin, gifts and stockings, candles, and, of course, Santa. All the game symbols appear in bright colors with an animated touch. The scatter symbol is the Christmas tree which starts the free spins when three of these symbols appear on reels. When three and more scatter symbols appear together at this time, free spins get retriggered. The bonus symbol is Santa riding on a sleigh. The second screen starts to appear when bonus symbols appear. The second screen is called the Santa’s Stocking Stuffer. You can choose three chimneys here and Santa is to go down them to stuff the stockings. Players could win as many as 2700 bonus points here. The game has 25 pay lines and players can place wagers of one coin for every pay line. All features in this game appear similar to those present in other Top Game online slots. There is also an Auto Play feature which can give as many as five spins. As a player, you get to customize settings like enabling or disabling the music which plays in the background or editing the sound and animation effects.

The festive season has set in and it is the time to rejoice and be merry. If you are a regular at casinos, you have all the more reason to celebrate. If you are not, you might get attracted toward this exciting world of gambling. Getting tempted might be a natural tendency, considering the fact that some major casinos are offering some of the best festive bonuses this year. But, watch out. Being a first-timer, you need to get acquainted with the gambling industry. Before registering, make yourself secure.

Dos And Don’ts Of Online Gambling

  • Check for eCOGRA: Look out for the eCOGRA seal that every authentic online casino will carry. It stands for “eCommerce and Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance.” It is an organization that is similar to an accreditation body that gives approval to casinos that issue prompt customer payouts. It also keeps an eye on the customer privacy policies maintained by casinos.
  • Check for Licensure: The Kahnawake Gaming Commission was set up around 11 years ago. Since then it has been regulating and licensing a host of interactive online games. An online casino site that has acquired a license from the Commission is assured of being a legal and trustworthy gaming portal.
  • Check the Payout Percentage: When considering an online casino for gaming, checkout the payout percentage of the site. The payout percent refers to the percent of wagered money won by players. For example, if a particular site mentioned its payout percent as 95, it means that 95 percent of the total wagered money at the casino was paid back to players as the winning amount.
  • Check Audit Reports: A reliable and authentic gaming site would make sure to update and submit its audit reports on a regular basis. They do not have any issues in laying open their payout reports to players as well. Transparency is respected in such sites and in turn helps them gain respect.
  • Check for the Requested Personal Details: When registering on an online casino site, keep your eyes open for the kind of details being sought. On an average, online gambling portals do not ask you for your credit card details. If you suspect even one percent of insecurity, do not register. After all it is your money that will be at stake. Besides there are a whole range of other sites operating that are safe to register with.
  • Check for Player Feedback: Most sites display a customer feedback section. Make sure to go through it to get an idea of what other visitors and players have experienced on that particular portal. Maybe not to a great extent but you will get an insight into it.
  • Check out the Customer Care: Genuine gambling portals offer a 24×7 customer care support. To be extra sure about a particular portal, write an email or give a call on the mentioned number. If the site is authentic, you will be sure to get a response to your message. Fake sites normally do not respond to mails or phone calls.

Gambling is fun and involves a high percentage of excitement and adventure. Enjoy a safe festive season.

Moody’s Forecast For The Strip More Upbeat!

Recession has forcibly decreased consumer spending in the United States. This has in turn also affected the gambling industry. But Moody’s has revised their earlier forecast of a flat growth rate line to a marginal improvement in the form of one to two percent growth in gaming revenue and two to four percent growth in operators’ profits. The effect of all the cost-cutting moves made in the last couple of years is likely to reflect on the companies’ bottom line now. But the unemployment figures as well as the glut of operators in the market have ensured the single-digit growth rates.

The Slots Jungle has been powered by the software provider Realtime Gaming and offers many features like the free spins rounds and the unique win–win feature.
