Here are the 2019 new Australian online pokies for 2019:
King Ramses: Triple Shot
Continuing the King Ramses series started in 2017, Triple Shot is the second online pokies game that Ainsworth is releasing on June 2019. The theme is also about Ancient Egypt, but there are some extra features added to improve the gameplay and experience.
The game’s structure comes in a standard 5 reels, developing 25 lines. There are special features that are going to help you trigger winning combinations, such as scatter symbols, free spins no deposit, 3 different fixed jackpots. The top payout of the game comes through the major jackpot, adding to up to 10.000 dollars to your bankroll.
The betting range is set between 1.25 and 25 dollars when you wager on all the 25 active lines of the game. You can get winning combinations of 12x the total stake in this game. But there are higher payouts if you trigger one of the game’s fixed jackpots: minor, maxi and major.
We expect the game to have rather low volatility, taking into consideration the game’s low payouts. And its return to player percentage is not thrilling either, set at only 94.31%. But, then again, this RTP percentage is quite common for Ainsworth games.
The first special symbol of King Ramses: Triple Shot is the scatter icon. It is represented by the game’s logo and you need to land a minimum of 3 of-a-kind at the same time on the reels, anywhere on the reels. You will get the minimum of free spins no deposit, 10, and the higher the scatter combination you land, the more free spins you get: 15 or 25.
The free spins bonus round can be re-triggered with only 2 matching scatters which will add 5 free spins to your bonus. The scatter symbol will reward you with multipliers as well, from 5x to 100x the total stake.
There is also a Triple Shot bonus game, which is triggered on the 6th reel. In order to do so, you will need to land 5 matching symbols on the regular 5 reels of the game, which needs to include one Triple Shot symbol on the bonus reel. The game’s fixed jackpots can be triggered this way, offering you the chance to reach the top payout of 10.000 dollars.
The wild symbols are the second special feature of the game, and it is used as a substitute for other standard symbols to create winning combinations. And it will have an effect on the jackpot triggering as well, as these are activated on a 5 matching symbols combination.
The graphics look quite good, but they are not so high-end as we would have expected. To complete the Ancient Egypt theme, the symbols include horses and chariots, scarabs and shields, as well as the usual playing card royals. On the bright side, King Ramses: Triple Shot online pokies game offers special features which are thrilling enough to make us spin the reels for hours.
Wild Nights: Crazy Feature
Wild Nights: Crazy Feature online pokies game will take you on a trip to exciting Las Vegas. Released on June 2019, this game has a cool gambling theme that exudes from its 5 reels, bursting with symbols related to the theme and lots of fun features for you to enjoy.
The game develops a total of 25 pay lines on the standard format of the video pokies. The highest win can reach a total of 10.000 dollars, and you can win this prize in one single spin. And the special features involved might even get you there. There are wild symbols, scatter icons and free spins, up to 25 of them, and the 5th reel that can act as a wild reel.
The betting range is set between 1.25 and 25 dollars, so when you wager on all pay lines, you will have a maximum bet of 25 dollars per spin. And the maximum payout will be reached when you wager at the maximum, through the Crazy Feature.
During the regular game, your highest payout will only reach 12x the total stake, translated in 300 dollars. Depending on the symbols used in the winning combination, your payout can reach 7.500 dollars tops.
As we mentioned above, there are special symbols which will come into the scene to help you complete winning combos. The first one we’d like to mention is the wild symbol, represented by the game’s logo. This icon will be available as a substitute for all regular symbols and will help you complete wins. But there’s a catch, it is only available on 4 of the game’s 5 reels, which means it will never land on the 1st reel.
The scatter symbol is another special feature, and it is responsible for triggering the free spins bonus round. You will need a minimum of 3 matching scatters to be rewarded with free spins, 10 to be more exact. For 4 of-a-kind you will get 15 free spins and for 5 matching scatters you will be rewarded with 25 free spins.
During the free spins bonus round, you will also be rewarded with prizes that can reach 100x the total stake, as well as with the 5th reels being transformed into a wild reel. Additional wild symbols will also be added to the 3rd and 4th reels, making this round more lucrative than you would have expected.
The Crazy Feature is another great opportunity to create generous wins. It will add a conveyor belt on the right side of the reels, with the possibility to trigger 5 different jackpots and a total of 10.000 dollars from 5 matching symbols combinations.
With a Las Vegas theme, Wild Nights: Crazy Feature online pokies game might not be the most unusual there, but it has some special features to make up for that. And the graphics are decent as well, including classic symbols such as number 7s, Las Vegas landmarks, cowgirls and playing card royals. However, we would have liked to see some more modern features and designs.
King of the Jungle
King of the Jungle online pokies game was released by Ainsworth in July 2019, with a theme that combines the African animals with elements which you would find in native African civilizations. You will see a lot of the gorillas in this game, making it fun and exciting at the same time.
The game offers a standard video slot structure, with 5 reels that develop a total of 25 active pay lines. The regular symbols’ combinations will get you up to 40.000 dollars as a top payout, but the Grand Bonus feature will also reward you with a generous 30.000 dollars prize. And to help you reach the grand prizes, there are different wilds and scatter symbols, free spins no deposit and multipliers in this game.
However, the return to player percentage is disappointing, set at only 94.09%. But, on the other hand, it is set according to Ainsworth practices, as this developer does not offer much higher RTPs in its games.
The game’s 25 pay lines are fixed, making it easier for you to set up your bets. All you have to do is choose between 1 dollar and 40 dollars.
Prize-wise, the Grand Bonus is definitely one to mention in King of the Jungle online pokies game. This jackpot can be activated while you play the game, and it is fixed. When it comes to regular wins, you will get a top of 8x the total stake for a symbol combination. But, during the free spins bonus round, you have the chance to use multipliers and reach 40x the total stake. However, if you fill the screen with the right icons, you’ll be looking at a generous 1.000x the total stake.
King of the Jungle online pokie introduces some cool special features for you to benefit from, starting with the wild symbol, which is represented by the golden logo icon. It acts as a regular wild symbol, substituting for regular icons to help you complete wins. But in this game, it will only land on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th reels.
The gorilla is the scatter symbol of the game and it is responsible for triggering the free spins bonus round. With only 2 matching scatters you will trigger the Second Chance Respin feature, which will also offer a chance to receive the third feature.
The free spins no deposit round will be triggered by a minimum of 3 matching scatters and will reward you with 10 rounds. It will also come with additional symbols. The wild symbols will appear only of the 3rd reel, while the 2nd and 4th will have 3x and 5x multipliers.
King of the Jungle online pokie might not have a unique theme, but it comes with the gorilla as the main characters and that’s quite fun. And besides that symbol, you will also have a shield with spears, gorilla statues, drums and snakes, complete by playing card royals.
And, if the theme does not manage to impress, the free spins bonus round and its added multipliers will definitely amaze. So, payout-wise, the game delivers as expected, with generous prizes that can boost your bankroll.
Egyptian Wealth
Released in August 2019 by Ainsworth, Egyptian Wealth is an online pokies game which is themed on Ancient Egypt and its deities. The action of the game will take you back to a time and place where magic was in the hands of gods, and you will have to get on their good side to reward you with wins.
The game’s structure is a standard 5 reels, developing a total number of 50 pay lines. The highest symbol of the game is the ones representing the pharaoh, and it will also get you the highest payout available, 15.000 coins.
In additions, there are lots of t=other prizes to gain, and wild symbols will be there to help you, along with bonus symbols, free spins no deposit and a cool Egyptian Wealth Bonus feature.
The betting range is set between 50 cents and 500 dollars in total when you choose to wager on all the game’s pay lines.
The most fun and rewarding feature of the game is called Mad Millions. It holds the pharaoh icons in place while the other symbols re-spin 3 times. And, as long as you land more pharaoh symbols, the feature can keep on going. This feature will be triggered by 6 matching pharaoh symbols and can get you the game’s jackpot of 15.000 coins via 15 pharaoh icons.
The theme and graphics are decent, but we would have liked to see better. However, the game features the eye of Ra, the Ankh, Anubis and Horus as higher paying symbols to offer you generous wins. And the Mad Millions special feature to spice things up.
