New Slot Announcement Immortal Romance 2!

[DreamRJ]

It's strange though how the Jackpots aren't tied to stake, so you could build them on 10p and once at a decent point (100x for 2/3 of them) increased to say £1 stake and relatively they increase, wonder how they reconcile this in the overall RTP?

I agree the original is better but it is a good sequel none the less. A lot of slots allow this now though that you can decrease stake or increase stake without it affecting the progress or in this case the jackpot amounts.

But the jackpots would not increase that high doing 10p spins so not really much value on grinding them on 10p best to stick to 30p to grind and then switch to higher later.

MG slots became terrible the moment HTML5 appeared and took over flash / viper.

I so miss the Viper Client. They took a lot of my old favourites away.

I think Immortal Romance II is okay. The random jackpots seem to be fairly frequent, the top one is not that big. I don't know if it is everywhere, but Casino Rewards has it.

The 5-reel Wild Desire would be 5x 1024 = 5120x so 15360x if hit on max 3x multiplier capped to 15,000x.

I would assume this is a traditional "win up to" rather than a modern one - so it's an indication of the likely maximum pay rather than a win cap.

The game rules don't mention a cap, but do state:

"The win up to value displayed is rounded down, and is approximately the highest possible win achievable on a single spin."

So seems fair, as with the tradition of Microgaming (now Games Global) - a realistic (and approximated) potential top win, rather than a shady "max win" (or call it what it is, a cap) or some astronomically impossible theoretical limit.

No idea how Casino Reward casinos have it when it is released on 28th?

Maybe they got an exclusive for it then? That is the only explanation I can come up with.

Oh and on a fun and sad note, another one of my mouses just died. RIP middle mouse scroll wheel again.

My gamble anger struck again lol, I have a metal mouse mat so when I get angry I bang my mouse sometimes on it and that is what breaks my mouses all the time haha. My own angry fault. So now I can not scroll with middle wheel scroller lol. Will need to buy yet another new mouse. (Luckily I can still click scroll with the middle mouse button though. So will have to get used to scrolling that way until I get a new one ordered.)

 

[slotmaster]

BetMGM has this now for any Ontario peeps.

32Red have had it since the 1st of May.
It's billed as an exclusive. But apparently, Unibet and a few other casinos have it too, as an 'exclusive'.

Maybe 32Red have the exclusive on the 94% RTP version, since your post shows Casino Rewards listing it as the 96% RTP version. lol

 

[TheSchwad]

Seems Party Casino also have it (@94%), as an 'exclusive', obviously that word has less meaning these days .

 

[DreamRJ]

Ok, I guess VS will have the 94% version when they add it then. Some of the other casinos I play at I do not think have Stormcraft provider slots, MrQ, Pokerstars, Bet365 to name a few of them.

MrQ though is very very slow at adding slots and they do not have a huge selection either, no idea why they are scrooge on which slots they add, also they do not have every nolimit slot either and they do not allow extra bets on them.

 

[DreamRJ]

Anyone know any others that have it?

I have a partycasino account, but I set a deposit limit a few years ago when I stopped playing their. I did just login now and saw it and removed the limit but I have to wait 24 hours lol.

I do not play at 32red anymore because their withdraw times are appalling and no weekend cashouts etc. As for Casino Rewards, I will never ever play at any of those, they are a rogue operator in my opinion. I never trust them. I also had bad experience many years ago with a few from that brand.

Stormcraft is basically Microgaming.
So it's likely to be added to any site which has the original Immortal Romance, including MrQ, Bet365 and PokerStars (eventually)

Yeah but they are slow and some do not add certain slots at all too lol

EDIT: Well just got access to my 32red account again. Turns out I reopened it many years ago and forgot I did lmao. Main reason I stopped playing there was because of no weekend cashouts and a few other factors as well.

But boy I miss the viper client.

Playing it now at 32red

Been playing it at Coral last few days.

 

[DreamRJ]

Fucking shocking that was, just managed to trigger feature picked Amber had 2 retriggers so had total 36 spins played did not even win 100X from it, was dead spins galore. Total disgraceful.

Amber is the best feature though from my play testing I did yesterday on it.

 

[DreamRJ]

hang on a minute........



So what if you get locked wilds on 2 and 3? That would mean infinite wins? Surely they coded this so that you can not get 2 locked on 2 and 3? So would it not have just been better to put locked wilds on reels 3,4 and 5 instead?

It is also a nice touch that you can increase the wild desire multi when you land 1 blood drop on second wheel. That is random though.

 

[DreamRJ]

I have to do yet another post and rant............

So now I have been playing it for hours and I am now at 4K spins total and the last 2.5K spins it has been absolutely ice freezing cold and not a single jackpot trigger or wild desire or bonus.

This is worse than bonanza. I mean I know how Stormcraft slots play like cos I played a lot of their slots but this takes the piss. 2.5K spins without a bonus is 100% criminal.

 

[PMKFRUITPRO]

I hope ur not playing the 94% version??

 

[sapit222]

Ive tested it a few times now at Leovegas on the 94% version.
I hope some casinos get the 96% soon.

The base game is actually good with lots of small wins and a few better ones.
The bonus games (all 4) are dreadful though... mostly around x10 wins...

Got the wild desire 1 time and i think it was x30 win?
Got the silly "jackpots" 2-3 times at x20-30.

 

[trancemonkey]

I can't think of a Games Global game that really stands out .. lots of average games. Occasional good ones. Mostly dire. So many small studios at GG, I'm amazed they are all surviving...

 

[DreamRJ]

I hope ur not playing the 94% version??

Unfortunately the only 2 casinos I can play it at 32red and Partycasino only have the 94% versions

To late at 32red now cos I played it their the most and built my jackpots pretty high now. The thing is with progressive jackpots is the higher they get the harder it is to trigger and win one of them. When you do 99.99999999999% of the time it is the lowest one.

I also completed the bar at the bottom as well now, So reached immortality status lol. The skin for that last unlock is nice because it makes all the character symbols different and the frames around them are bigger so you can see them above or below the top and bottom of the reels.

 

[mcgameboy]

I could give a detailed version of my experience of it so far, but I genuinely can't be arsed.

All I can say is that given that it has the Stormcraft and Games Global brands attached to it, all I was seeing was two HUGE RED FLAGS from the get go.

And having played it for about three hours across two sessions, I have come to the following conclusion....

It has to be one of the most incredibly boring, depressingly uneventful, painfully unexciting, infuriatingly damn near impossible to bonus and just UNBELIEVEABLY PLAIN DULL slots I have EVER played in 12 and a half years of online slotting. It makes Bonanza look...exciting (shudder!!).

All production value, ZERO substance. A slot that is no better than a truly foul smelling turd covered in glitter.

Marks out of 10.....ZERO. Yes that's right. I can't even bring myself to award it one out of 10 for fear that it might make me feel dirty inside.

Seriously Stormcraft.....get back to the bloody drawing board and figure out how to make a slot that might actually be fun and enjoyable to play, instead of continuing to produce the SHIT HOT garbage that you've been peddling in recent years.

Immortal Romance? More like Insomnia CureChance. Fucking embarrassing....

PS I SHOULD mention that I actually (somehow!!) managed to trigger the feature in under NINETY SECONDS when I first played it.
And I picked Amber and it retriggered and it paid over 200x. So I was genuinely pleasantly surprised.

Unfortunately, that SINGLE SOLITARY moment of enjoyment that I had on this game has since proven to be THE MOTHER of all false positive first impressions.
Three hours of play later, I finally got told the punchline to this complete and utter joke of a slot.
Needless to say, there was no laughter involved, it was just me sat there staring at my laptop with a face like a bag of spanners.
A true "hold my beer" moment that would make @dunover wave the white flag and say...

"Jesus Christ, not even I can look THAT glum and miserable.....and that's after a ten minute conversation with my missus"

I can say with complete confidence that I will never go anywhere near this slot ever again. Not even at two bob a spin. It really is that crap.

Well to be fair your entire post lacks substance as well. Did you have a really bad 2 sessions in those 3 hours you spent playing it?

I agree Stormcraft is not that good of a provider but what provider is nowadays anyway. Also all slots are designed to bleed you dry of all your blood "no pun intended"

But honestly this is not as bad as you think it is, I do think they did do it justice and they introduced new music etc whilst still keeping original music intact mostly. Yes so what they changed what the characters looked like etc. I mean that was probably a under sight, the artist who did the characters could easily have looked at IMR original characters and made them pretty much identical, no idea why they did not do that.

Things I liked was the fact the wild desire was now not a random event and you now either needed to land 2 blood droplets on reels 2 and 4 or trigger wild desire from the jackpot wheel spin.

I Liked the progression when you first played it to unlock new skins and music as well. (apart from hiding the wild desire buy as an unlock - UK can not buy anyway)

Graphics was nice, nice visuals, they kept the same wild desire music, Animations was nice as well.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Things I hated, Scatter teases was super scripted, various patterns, same for when you get a blood drop on reel 2, that slow spin on reel 4 is also so scripted. You also can NEVER get a connection/win when that tease happens either. So that eliminates the chance of the blood drop dropping down on reel 4.

Scatter teases are a little similar as well, only time you can get the scatters to drop in is also very scripted, normal scatter draws when you land them on reels 1 and 2 are usually 99.999999% a miss and is just a scripted visual repeated result. Yes they made the symbols that land during the slow spins on reel 3 4 and 5 a little different but 99% of the time you ALWAYS get a locked wild drop on either 3,, 4 or 5 during the slow tease spins that obviously will never connect.

Another under sight which I mentioned above was about the locked wilds on reels 2,3,4 and 5 in base game. Why on earth would they state you can get them on those reels but NEVER can? They should have just put locking wilds on reels 3,4 and 5 instead?

Did they do this on purpose to be deceiving and to make players think that it is possible? So would this not be actually lying? Because why on earth would they program in that locked wilds are on 2 3 4 and 5 but you can never ever get them on reel 2 and 3 at the same time because well for obvious reasons it would mean you win infinitely. Unless they set a cap on when the locked wilds get removed after you say for example win 10 times in a row?

I know there is some slots that did that where sticky wilds have a limit on them before they go away. But there is nothing in the paytable/help file that states anything related to this.

I played this slot solid for nearly 3 days, hours and hours and hours. And after all the extensive playthrough I rated it 8/10 - The fact I rated it 8 was because pays are low, To many scripted tease draws and also a slight bug that sometimes happens after a feature or blood drop tease draw and you press spin button to quickly it bugs out and gives an error.

Then comes the jackpots, this is something I hate with a lot of Stormcraft slots and many others nowadays. To many slots have jackpots that you can never win apart from the mini or minor 99% of the time. (I did actually get Sarah very high to like 300X and got that yesterday surprisingly. But I would guess if Sarah gets to 1500X then that will mean you will never win it unless you hit the slot at the right time when the RNG is in a good mood lol.

Everyone will have different opinions but this is mine.

I like the slot, apart from all that I mentioned above.

If the locked wilds did land on reels 2 and 3. The wins would stop once 3 scatters had dropped in. It's the same with Gonzo's Quest Megaways.
That's not to say it's possible to land on 2 and 3.
I'm pretty sure, I've had one on reel 2 and I've definitely had a pair on 3 and 4.

The biggest mistake they've made is the 2 symbol Wild desire trigger.
In the original game, WD dropped randomly and unexpectedly. So, most of the time you never thought about it.
In this game, you're regularly reminded that you haven't had a WD

 

[dunover]

So the consensus here is that StormShaft have buggered it up?

Yeah true,

I have had a locked on reel 2 and 4 a few times, never 3 and 4 or 3 and 5 or 4 and 5. I did get them land without connecting though in base game and free spins.

I also think Amber is the best one to pick as well. I tested all the features in demo before I played for real and Amber was the best one. Wilds go upto 18X and increase by 3X each win.

As for the scatters stopping the connections, I do not think they will, the connections would still continue and free spins would never trigger until all connections stopped, also only other way that the connections would stop is if other scatters landed on the same reel, so 3 scatters on reel 1 blocking any more connections. This is an absurd thing but yeah bad programming if that could actually happen.

And about wild desire I agree the randomness of triggering was nicer and yes with IMR2 knowing we can trigger it 2 ways does make you realise how long it was since the last time you triggered it. But that said, that could be said about original version as well. That was super rare for it to trigger as well most of the time. So on paper not much difference really. The length of time between triggering will be about the same I reckon.

@dunover - not fully no but they did mess some things up like we have discussed.

One last thing to mention regarding the low paying symbols is that we can easily realise why they made the WD 1024 ways and also added a multiplier to it. Because it would have been very little if they kept it 243 in WD with the new tiny 5oak paytable. They would then probably have had to make it so WD multi could have been increased to 20X or 30X to compensate for the 243 ways WD instead of 1024 or they would have had to make the line pays double or triple what they currently are.

So a kind of stand of really, Also increasing 5oak line pays also decreases hit rate of landing 5oaks as well the higher they pay per 5oak etc. That is also why they added multis to wilds in base game as well. Another compensation for the really low line pays.
