Perhaps NetEnt never really realised how popular their ‘Flowers’ game was going to be, but in hindsight, it should have been a no brainer. A game which brings so much colour and joy to your screen is bound to impress video slot gamers. So, it seemed only natural for our favourite developer to provide its players with a follow up game in the form of the ‘Flowers Christmas Edition’ product. It takes on all the same characteristics of the original, but presents you with a more wintry offering, draped in blankets of snow, Christmas lights and fir trees.

The remainder of the game is pretty much the same, although whereas the first version provided you with buzzing bees and squawking geese, the background noises of this one has eliminated such traits and opted solely for the tweeting bird sounds. Furthermore, whenever you spin the reels, there’s a jingle of bells in this one, rather than the springtime cheer of the last one. So, now you have a choice of playing a more Christmassy themed version of Flowers, or the regular sunny spring offering.

It’s quite usual for flowers and plant life to be synonymous with the spring and summer months of the year. It’s when you’ll see them blooming to their full, beautiful potential, with wonderful scents coming from them at the same time. It’s with this kind of scenario in mind that NetEnt has created its online video slot entitled, ‘Flowers’. You’ll find that there are several features of this game which allow it to be as entertaining as it is, and not only that, but graphically speaking as well, it’s a really great offering. The developer has also included background noises of bees buzzing around, birds tweeting in the trees, and a goose squawking in the background, to name but a few.

Bringing these features all together in this one game is a thoroughly compelling experience, and we’d suggest to anyone to play this product at least once to see if you’re not hooked instantly.

For a game with a bit of history and culture behind it, look no further than NetEnt’s ‘Fisticuffs’ offering, which will take you back to the early 1900s. It was at this time that boxing was considered a gentleman’s sport, and although early fighting had no written rules, no weight divisions or round limits, and no referee either, it was still considered to be a sport for the upper class man. It would be in 1897 that rules for competing in the sport would be drafted in to play, and amateur championship belts were also created for such, offering up a lightweight, middleweight and heavyweight title.

Twelve rules were initially introduced, including those which made fights have three minute rounds and a one minute rest interval between, as well as making them a ‘fair stand-up boxing match’.

With Fisticuffs, you’ll be taken back to those glory days, and this is never more apparent than with the inclusive sounds that NetEnt have provided, offering up the thrill and excitement of an actual boxing hall. There’s also a touch of comedy about it, thanks to the added piece of music which plays with every spin of the reels.

We love online slot games which are set underwater. There’s never a dull moment when you’re able to traverse the coral reefs, swim around with the colourful marine life and feel free and relaxed within the water. And, if you’re not able to do that any time soon, perhaps the Fishy Fortune slot game from NetEnt will manage to take you one step closer to the reality of it happening. However, this one also has a progressive jackpot included with it as well, which makes it even more compelling than the standard online slot games.

As the story goes, you’ll be searching under the sea for buried treasure, and with the jackpot included, you just might find it! NetEnt have included some wonderful sound effects with the sounds of air bubbles from nearby fish and the swishing of the waves above you providing more than enough of an atmosphere for you as you spin the reels.

For those of you who enjoy playing a game filled with mystery and wonder, ‘Fantasini…’ has to be your next stop. It tells the story of an illusionist and magician, who is obviously travelling the world to invite people in to his shows of intrigue and spectacles. We have to admit that we’re partial to a bit of circus type magic, especially because it’s so difficult to figure out how the tricks are done. And while this game may not present you with as much of a thrill as actually being an attendant of a physical show, it will certainly take you one step closer to the mastery involved. This is never more apparent than with the game’s wonderful graphics and soundtrack, which will have you on the edge of your seat with every spin, and will present you with an adrenaline pumping game on the whole. Fantasini is in town, and he’s ready to prove to you that magic does exist!

For many people, the name Excalibur will bring to mind the legendary sword of King Arthur, which is sometimes attributed with magical powers or associated with the rightful sovereignty of Great Britain. It’s often known by its other name, Caliburn, as well, and further arguments have been made as to whether it is the same sword as that of the Sword in the Stone, which is proof of Arthur’s lineage. It has been associated with the Arthurian legend from a very early age, and the name of it comes from the ancestor of Welsh Caledfwich which is a compound word made up of caled, meaning hard, and bwich, meaning breach or cleft.

As such, the sword has formed the basis of the game of the same name from NetEnt, which brings medieval times right to your computer screen. Every spin of the reels is marked by the sound of a horse setting off galloping, while various voices and medieval flute tunes play along in the background.

As we’re all aware, evolution concerns the progression of life on earth, from the very creation of the world right through to modern day animals and plant life. However, this game from NetEnt concerns the early days of evolution, taking us back to the times when animal life was in the process of changing in to what it has become today. As such, you’re taken deep under the water, to where all life began. As the scientific story goes, life began from microscopic microbes. Cells which divided and multiplied to form fish in the sea, which then evolved further to create amphibian creatures, and further along than that to create mammals, birds and reptiles, amongst others. Alongside this watery scenario, players will also be presented with an aural treat for the ears, as the developer has also included a very atmospheric piece of music to accompany your game play. A further visual treat of this game, which is only something minor, but still noticeable, is the fact that the reels spin upwards rather than downwards.

‘Elements: The Awakening’ sounds like the title of a truly spectacular film, and you’ll be sure that it’s just that as soon as the opening video package begins to play. It does offer up a truly wonderful experience when playing, and that’s not only thanks to the actual game play itself, but also to the things which could be considered quite minor additions as well. Like the soundtrack, for example. It’s so serene and calming in the first instance, before erupting into a grand piece whenever a win is formed. There’s also the included background, which shows the scene of a huge volcano on one side, ice-covered mountains on the other, as well as rocky formations and a vast lake of water. Not only that, but if you leave the game alone for five seconds or so, you’ll see some of the characters on the reels animate themselves in such an entertaining way. On the whole, it provides a wonderfully crafted game to play, which includes a variety of specialities and more.

If you’ve played slot machines before, there’s probably a fairly strong chance that you’ve accessed one of them which is based on Ancient Egypt. It is, after all, one of the top themes for developers to insert into their products. And why not? It’s one of the most known civilisations of days gone by, coalescing roughly in the year of 3150 BC, according to conventional Egyptian chronology. It politically unified both Uupper and Lower Egypt under the first Pharaoh Narmer, who is commonly referred to as Menes. And it’s these years of the country that NetEnt have inserted in to their game entitled, Egyptian Heroes. Naturally, it is all set inside an ancient temple, where you will pay your respects and prayers to the gods, many of which have been added to the reels in their various forms. Everything provided in the game is very graphically appealing, giving gamers a wonderful interface to play on. Furthermore, the special features which have been included will leave you thoroughly entertained.

The production of golden eggs has been on the decline, and things aren’t looking good for the tired old hens of the coop. Luckily, the head rooster – in between staring at himself gracefully in the mirror – has come up with a great idea. The EggOMatic! This will set production back in to full flow and allow the exhausted hens to take a much needed break. At least, that’s what the video package introducing this game explains. And as soon as you get to the reels, you’ll see the product in action, spurting golden eggs out randomly across the top of the interface. It’s all very factory and industrial fused, presenting you with fully functioning conveyor belts and mechanical birds, while a wondrous piece of music plays in the background, which would be well suited to the latest Disney release. On the whole, it’s a game full of magic and intrigue, and it ultimately offers up a great product to play.
