You can always count on Microgaming to release new and exciting online pokies on a regular basis. This month, the company has announced the launch of a series of three new pokies: So Many Monsters, So Much Sushi and So Much Candy. The uniting feature of the game isn’t only the title. They are all basically the same game with the game features and format except with different symbols.

All three games offer up a maximum jackpot of 32 000 coins. Scatter symbols and wild symbols are also available to help increase the player’s winning potential. The reason behind the ‘so much’ and ‘so many’ titles is that the game features split symbols. Most split symbol pokies only offer two to three symbols in a single space. In So Many Monster, So Much Sushi and So Much Candy, the symbols can be split up to five ways.

This means that five symbols will be included in one space, triggering the possibility of a 25-of-a-kind win. After the player has triggered a winning combination, the game randomly determines how to split the symbols. This adds a little bit of suspense and excitement to the gaming experience.

“What we’ve done with the So Much More series is take what we believe to be a great slot mechanic with a rich feature set, and distribute this across three completely different themes,” says Mike Hebden, Head of Casino Games at Microgaming. “Whether it’s chopsticks, a fully stocked candy store or entertaining monsters, there is something to appeal to all of our operators’ players.”

In each game, players can earn generous free spins: 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16. Then, they are giving the option of triggering extra free spins or higher payouts. While it may sound unoriginal to produce three very similar games, we like the idea of this theme. The split symbol format is very effective, and the choice of games provides players with three different experiences but with the same generous features.
