Microgaming and Snowborn Games present a thrilling release that will see players team up with a burglar named Jewel to steal the biggest diamond in the world from an art gallery in Paris. Titled The Vault, this 5-reel release promises lots of excitement, thanks to its in-game features, as well as prizes of up to 5,000x the wager. With the action starting from as low as $0.20 per spin, you’ll be given numerous chances to scoop handsome prizes, and to do so you’ll have to rely on Scatter symbols, respins, multipliers, stacked Wilds symbols, and a Free Spins bonus round.
Set in a Parisian gallery, guarded by high-tech laser sensors, you’ll need to get at least 3 matching symbol in order to create a winning combination and get paid. This April 2020 Microgaming release features a standard 5x3 reel set, while players will have a total of 20 fixed paylines to benefit from. With the coin denomination ranging from $0.01 to $2.2, punters will be able to place any stake from a mere $0.20 to $44 per spin. Since this is a highly volatile game, you should be careful when choosing a wager, cause you may lose all your money too soon.
Featuring a dark theme, with a realistic heist atmosphere, where only the green light of the laser sensors lights the screen. Jewel is also there, dressed in black, with a visor covering her face. Nicely done animations and tense music playing in the background further add to the atmosphere. On the reels, you’ll encounter symbols matching the overall theme, such as gold bars, diamonds and jewels, as well as the game’s Wild, which will appear stacked on the reels. Scatter has a task to activate the Free Spins round.
Stacked Wild can be a very beneficial symbol, as it can cover several paylines when appearing on the grid. It will also substitute for other symbols, helping create additional winning combinations. This symbol can also award payouts of its own – land all 5 of them on a payline, and you’ll receive a prize worth 100x your wager!
Be on a lookout for Scatters, as they trigger the Free Spins round when enough of them simultaneously land on the reels. But don’t despair if you’re 1 or 2 Scatters short of activating the Free Spins, as you’ll have the chance to grab more thanks to a respins feature. Once triggered, the reels will respin until no new scatters land on the reels, or until you get all 5 of them!
When activated, the Free Spins round will start with 10 spins and a 3x multiplier to further boost your winnings. Land more Scatters to get more spins, while an icon with 1x sign on it increases the size of the multiplier. While the Free Spins round is active, you’ll get a Wild Reel present in the middle reel until the feature comes to an end.
With nice graphics, a decent RTP, and its high variance, The Vault represents an exciting to the developer’s offering of games. Coupled with a top prize of 5,000x the wager, it becomes even more appealing to players. Microgaming does have better games in its portfolio, but The Vault has what it takes to keep you entertained.
