Microgaming Carnival Themed Online Pokies

The Carnival festival will be celebrated in Rio and other cities of the world in the last week of February. Microgaming, the leading software provider to Australian online casinos, offers two online pokies that bring alive the spirit of the Carnival. You can play these games at online casinos like Casino Mate, 32Red and Royal Vegas.

The Carnival is also known as Mardi Gras, so the first online pokie is Mardi Gras Fever. The symbols on the reels are bright and colourful and include many of the characters and sights that you would see in the parades. They include Samba dancer, band, jester, Queen of the Carnival, crown, cocktails, alligator and more. Play this online pokie with the audio enabled because peppy festive music is played in the background. The highest fixed jackpot is delivered by the game logo. The online pokie has two scatter symbols. Three or more jester symbols anywhere on the reels trigger five free spins with a huge payout multiplier of 10 times. Three or more Bourbon Street symbols anywhere on the reels trigger the bonus game on the second screen. You have to select three windows out of 12 displayed on the screen. A lady will appear in each window and award bonus credits. Mardi Gras is a 20 paylines online pokie in the standard 5×3 format. You can wager up to 10 coins per payline and the coin denominations vary from AU$0.01 to AU$0.50. The maximum bet per spin works out to AU$100.

The other Microgaming online pokie with this theme is Carnaval. The title uses the Latin spelling for the word. As in Mardi Gras Fever, the symbols are designed boldly in bright colours. The game logo awards the top line payout of 5,000 times the line bet. The Samba girl with her feathered head dress and the clown that accompanies the parade are symbols that can be easily identified as being associated with the festival. The other thematic symbols are the pendant and the trumpet. The playing card symbols are also in keeping with the vibrant theme. The Wild Logo is the wild symbol and the Scatter Logo is the scatter symbol. The audio again has been effectively used to create the festive atmosphere. It includes drum beat and trumpet music. Carnaval is a comparatively older online pokie released at a time when free spins or bonus games were not included. But it is a high variance pokie capable of delivering some big payouts.
