Children’s stories like Snow White Three Little Pigs and Jack and the Beanstalk are popular themes for online pokies with many leading software providers including them in their portfolios. Microgaming has gone one step further with a set of four online pokies titled Rhyming Reels based on well-known nursery rhymes. To make them more interesting to pokies players, there is a nuanced risqué element. These video pokies are live at all Microgaming powered Australian online casinos like Casino Mate and Royal Vegas.
The Rhyming Reels pokies series begins with Hearts and Tarts, which is based on the nursery rhyme Queen of Hearts. The queen appears on the reels as page 3 hostess and is stacked in the base game and the free spins. Waitresses carrying trays of tarts also figure as symbols on the reels. The game logo is the wild symbol with a 2x multiplier property. The crown symbol triggers 10 free spins in which all payouts are doubled.
Old King Cole is the next Microgaming Rhyming Reels online pokie. The pipe of Old King Cole has been exchanged for a hookah, the bowl has been replaced by coloured fruit loops and boring three fiddlers have given way to three female guitarists. These changes add pizzazz to the online pokie. The free spins feature is very exciting. It awards 12 free spins with a multiplier that can go as high as 7x and an extra wild symbol on the reels. Old King Cole online pokie also has the Microgaming gamble game.
In Rhyming Reels Jack & Jill the protagonists are no longer innocent toddlers. Jack and Jill are in their teens eager to engage in romantic pursuits. Jack and Jill pay in both like and mixed combinations. The other symbols include well, first aid kit, pail of water and Jack falling down while cosying up with Jill. The win animations leave no doubt about the duo’s amorous intent. The game logo is a wild symbol with a 2x multiplier property. The pail symbol awards 15 free spins with a 4x multiplier.
Georgie Porgie is the final Microgaming Rhyming Reels online pokie. Georgie too has grown up and terrorises girls. The symbols on the reels trace the events of the nursery rhyme, like kissing the girls, making them cry and running away when the lads appear on the scene. The free spins feature awards up to 25 free spins with up to 5x multiplier. The gamble game from Microgaming is also included.
