A Dark Tale of Love and Intrigue is a Heartbeat away …” according to Microgaming’s latest press release who is preparing to launch what is being described as the slot game of the year.

Immortal Romance will be the first in a series of games that have been compared to a variety of hugely successful slots such as Thunderstruck and Lord of the Rings. As a player, you’ll find yourself involved in a complex story of dark forbidden love very similar to the kind of tales recently seen to be so successful in movies such as Vampire and Twilight.

Indeed, the game centers around a whole host of supernatural characters and features intertwining stories and a number of twists which are sure to delight regular gamers. On top of that, Microgaming is stressing that the game will include the razor-sharp vector images that their slots have become known for as well as a rich soundtrack which will offer players a truly immersive experience.

Given the hype that has surrounded the launch of this game, it’s easy to understand why Microgaming is hailing it as “undoubtedly the most highly anticipated game release of the year.”

Just as with Lord of the Rings, Immortal Romance will be a 243 Ways to Win slot meaning that this is not your traditional game with pay lines. This is likely to delight and disappoint slot gamers in equal measure, so in order to placate those players who prefer to play with win lines, Microgaming has thrown in a whole host of additional features such as ‘Player Achievements’ which they hope will keep players coming back for more as they battle to achieve their ‘Gold’ status.

Another feature sure to draw a lot of attention is the Wild Desire reward feature which is triggered randomly and can lead to all five of the game’s reels turning wild and if you’re a fan of Thunderstruck 2, then you’ll be pleased to hear that Immortal Romance will feature a number of different ‘chambers’ each of which will be themed around the game’s central characters.
