We’re looking forward to some fantastic new slot releases this month. May 2022 will see the release of some games that are sure to have players talking, including a Temple Tumble sequel with a progressive jackpot and a new instalment in Push Gaming’s “Fat…” series, as well as new PopWins and Gigablox games.
May 4th
Temple Tumble 2 – Relax
May kicks off with a huge release in the shape of Temple Tumble 2 from Relax Gaming. The sequel to Temple Tumble, yet, more importantly, this is the first in the Dream Drop Jackpots series. The daring duo hit the reels again, backed up by free spins multipliers, five progressive jackpots, and, of course, plenty of tumbling symbol action. Temple Tumble 2 is set to be a big hitter on all fronts.
Rise of Gods Reckoning – Play’n GO
The word Gods in the title usually takes us to ancient Greece or the world of Vikings, but Play’n GO loves to mix things up – step up Rise of Gods Reckoning. Imagine Greek Gods roaming the streets of a busy modern-day city, and you’ll be close to the idea that this release is based upon. It’s Greek mythology, but not as you know it. Stacked God symbols, free spins, and synched reels all play a part in this exciting slot that twists up Greek mythology.
Bulls Run Wild – Red Tiger
Bulls Run Wild from Red Tiger Gaming is a simple yet colourful slot that embraces the Matador spirit. Focusing on wild bulls, free spins, and a dynamic wild picker bar, Bulls Run Wild is sure to have you on the edge of your seat. While the theme may not suit every player, there is a huge slice of Spanish culture to find for those who come and give this slot a spin.
May 5th
Itero Echospins – Hacksaw
Itero Echospins is a concept from Hacksaw Gaming, and this is one that should cause a stir in our slots community. Itero is the Latin for “to repeat,” which is what the Echospin mechanic is all about. You are also treated to increasing multipliers and two bonus games which use the Echospins mechanic, plus the maximum prize is worth 10,000x your stake. Itero is all about function, it looks okay, but it’s the gameplay mechanics that are clearly the key focus.
May 10th
Alchemy – Relax Gaming
Alchemy from Relax Gaming plays out on a 5×3 slot layout complete with 12 symbols filling the reels. It’s not one of the blockbuster slot releases this month, but hey, it’s got more than enough potential for those who enjoy powered-up wilds and free spin bonus games. The art of alchemy may come across as complicated, but Relax Gaming has wrapped it up in a neat little slot.
May 11th
Chicken Fox Jr – Lightning Box
Lightning Box seems to like this young fox character as we see another return this month. You could call this a prequel due to the Chicken Fox Jr title. Whatever you call it, it’s another simple yet entertaining slot game from the Lightning Box team. Enter the chicken coop once again, with free spins, symbol upgrades, and lots of chicken-chasing shenanigans from little Fox Jr.
Mystic Panther: Treasures of the Wild
Microgaming’s partner studio Infinity Dragon Studios is the team behind the Mystic Panther: Treasures of the Wild slot game. Not much is known about the studio, but we do know what to expect from the slot. Free spins, 729 ways to win, and a link and win bonus feature have all been included. The colourful reels and the overall mystic animal theme is one that should catch the attention of those looking for something new to play.
May 12
MonkeyPop – Avatar UX
MonkeyPop is the latest release in the PopWins™ series, complete with a stunning and unique theme design that is unlike anything we have seen in a long time. The Japanese-inspired design has a calming subtlety about it that we rarely see in Asian-based slot games. On top of the appealing visuals, the PopWins feature is in play, giving the game a boost to 33,614 ways to win. You get a bunch of free spins in the bonus game, too. Keep your eye out for MonkeyPop!
Idol of Fortune – PlaynGO
Idol of Fortune sees Play’n GO take on a section of Indian culture in the shape of Ganesha, one of the Indian gods displayed as the head of an Elephant. Hidden away behind the ornate reels, Ganesha remains a calm figure until the big wins start to hit. You’ve also got a mix of free spins, wilds, and mystery symbols to keep the game ticking along. It’s not a theme we see much of, so there are definitely some intriguing factors at play in Idol of Fortune.
AbraCatDabra – Gold Coin
AbraCatDabra from Gold Coin is all about magic and secret potions, but not quite as you know it. The alchemist cat and wizard rat are the stars of the show, along with respins, a pick and win bonus game, free spins, and four jackpot prizes. There is a lot going on down in the cat’s magic chamber, where prizes can rise to 5,000x your stake. AbraCatDabra is a colourful explosion of animal magic and bonus features – one to keep your eye on.
Goblin Heist Power Nudge – Pragmatic Play
Goblin Heist Power Nudge comes from the ever-busy studios of Pragmatic Play. It’s another one for the PowerNudge series too, following on from Rise of Giza. It’s a fascinating theme that couples bright, vivid imagery alongside devilishly looking goblins – who happen to know a thing or two about money heists. Visually appealing, it also plays well too. Mystery symbols, money respins, and increasing multipliers all add to the goblin-charged gameplay.
Mayhem – Red Tiger
Mayhem from Red Tiger looks the part, bursting with colour and simple comic book aesthetics with an apocalyptic backdrop. It works well, and Red Tiger has kept the simple design within the bonus features too. Cash Queen and Anarchy Spins are suitably named, and fans of Harley Quinn will notice the resemblance to the fully stacked Cash Queen wild symbol. Free spins and multipliers are included in a slot that maxes out its wins at 1,200x your stake.
May 13
Destiny of Sun and Moon – PG Soft
PG Soft brings us a new release aligned with the stars in Destiny of Sun and Moon. It’s a dreamy-looking slot game where the sun and moon meet to reward prizes to those lucky enough to win. 576 paylines, six reels, free spins, and multipliers all await in a slot that uses some interesting designs to integrate the game controls and gameplay.
May 16
Water Blox Gigablox – Peter and Sons
Water Blox is the second instalment from Peter & Sons in its Gigablox series. It’s another well-crafted slot game that takes you to the Walarya forests where giant sea creatures swim up the fjords. In-depth storylines are usually a big part of slots from Peter & Sons, Water Blox delivers exactly that, along with free spins, wild respins, and those oversized Gigablox symbols.
May 18
Animal Madness – Play n GO
It’s time to visit the Play’n GO farm in its brand-new slot release, Animal Madness. The madness starts with a 5×5 cluster pays grid, and it continues right through with a collection of wild animal symbols, modifiers, and big symbols. It’s not your average farm by any stretch of the imagination, but that is what makes Animal Madness an exciting prospect this May.
Links of Fire – Slingshot
Calling all retro slot gamers, Links of Fire is the one for you this month. Straight out of the Slingshot Studio, here we have another release based on its Power Stacks series. We’ve had Game of Thrones, we’ve had Egypt, and now it’s time for the classic fruit symbols. Free spins, a link&win feature, and four jackpots are prepped for anyone looking to spin these reels of fire.
Fat Banker – Push
It’s the 1920s and one fat banker is looking to fatten up his pockets in Push Gaming’s latest release – Fat Banker. A follow on from the big hit Fat Rabbit, this time we have a 6×6 game grid, multiplier symbols, bonus symbols, and the main fortune link feature with hot spots and free spins. In other words, Fat Banker is a high-action slot with all sorts of possibilities on the reels.
Big Cat Rescue Megaways – Red Tiger
Big Cat Rescue Megaways is something a little different from the Red Tiger team. Firstly, some of the money made from the slot goes back to the Big Cat Sanctuary in Tampa, Florida, so every spin ends up helping those big cats. As for the gameplay, this slot looks the part with several cats sprawled across the Megaways reels that line up between 64 and 117,649 ways to win. Mega wilds, increasing multipliers, and free spins make up the rest of the bonus features.
Big Buffalo Badlands – Skywind
Skywind has been keeping quiet about its upcoming Big Buffalo Badlands slot release, but there are one or two details floating about to give you some idea of what to expect. It comes with a 5×6 slot layout, a decent 96.50% RTP, cascading wins, wilds, and multipliers. Of course, you can expect lots of big buffalo symbols spinning across the reels as well.
May 24
Midnight Marauder – Relax
Midnight Marauder is a cluster pays slot from Relax Gaming that takes you on a nighttime escapade of robbing gems – all wrapped up in a cartoon styled design. A ‘collect and multiplier’ feature keeps the action ramped up with free spins in the locker as well. It may look a little basic on first impression, but Midnight Marauder has a lot of appeal once you start playing.
Western Gold 2 – Just for the Win
Just For The Win brings us Western Gold 2 Double Barrel, the sequel to Western Gold released back in 2020, and another one for its Gold series. It still has that retro vibe about it, complete with classic Western symbols and a maximum win potential worth 25,000x your bet. The free spins and super free spins are the core bonus features in what looks to be a solid slot game.
Azticons Chaos Clusters – Quickspin
Azticons Chaos Clusters is a beautifully crafted slot game from the team at Quickspin that takes you deep into the Mexican tropical jungle. A 7×7 cluster pays grid awaits you with its unique Chaos Cluster design grid, capable of hitting longer winning combinations. Twin symbols, free spins, multipliers, and a top win worth 25,000x your bet wraps up what should be a superb slot.
May 25
Wild Portals – BTG
Wild Portals from Big Time Gaming is an intriguing slot that is all about, well, wild portals. It’s a powerful feature once you start hitting the 2×2 wild portal symbols and multipliers. Multipliers are carried through into the free spins feature, and you’ll always trigger a wild portal in the feature. See? We did say this game is all about the wild portals!
Funk Master – NetEnt
It’s disco fever time at NetEnt as they bring us Funk Master, the 70s dance party slot game. Played out on an 8×8 slot grid, you’ll find the avalanche feature, multipliers, a dancing wild, free spins, and dancing hotspots. It’s a disco slot. It’s from NetEnt. What more could any disco lover ask for? Get your dancing shoes ready!
May 26
King’s Mask – Play n GO
Kings Mask from Play’n GO is another one for the Egyptian slot theme pile, but don’t discard it just yet. First, it’s from Play’n GO, so the visuals are spot on. The mechanics and numbers all add up to a worthwhile experience as well. Free spins, 20 paylines, a top prize worth 10,000x your stake, and powered up wilds. It’s not breaking boundaries, but the gameplay is as solid as the Great Pyramid of Giza!
Bolt X Up – Alchemy Gaming
The X-Up series from Alchemy Gaming rolls on with its latest edition, Bolt X Up. The voltage design is about as striking as it has been so far, so there is big appeal there. Expect a mix of features, including the multiplier meter, expanding wilds, free spins, and a maximum prize that reaches over 10,000x your stake.
Fruitopolis – Skywind
Skywind has gone for a colourful and fruit-inspired slot game for its latest release. Fruitopolis is a highly volatile slot with a handy looking 96.50% RTP. The Skywind team is keeping tight-lipped about the upcoming release, but we do know you can expect bonus power-ups, cascading wins, and plenty of multiplier potential.
Cleocatra – Pragmatic Play
Pragmatic Play is not short on Ancient Egyptian slot themes, and the latest release sees another one added to the list in Cleocatra. It’s a lot more tongue-in-cheek this time around, though, with its cute, cat-inspired design. While not the most famous of animals in Egypt’s history, they did bring good luck, which is what you need to hit those free spins and sticky wilds.
May 30
Big Benji Bonanza – Yggdrasil
Yggdrasil is flashing the dollar bills in its latest release, Big Benji Bonanza. In fact, you can’t move for dollar bills in this game located on the famous Wall Street. You’ve got reels and symbols dedicated to the dollar bill, followed by a mix of free spins, money symbols, and the super staxx feature where you can land up to ten instances of a symbol. It’s all about the money!
Risque Megaways – Red Tiger
Red Tiger has turned up the entertainment levels to ‘maximum’ for Risque Megaways. Undeniably inspired by Moulin Rouge, this slot backdrop oozes flamboyance and late-night fun. The Megaways factor is a big appeal, maxing out at an impressive 321,489 ways to win. Fully stacked dancer symbols, multipliers, and free spins all get thrown into the Risque mix as well.
As you can see, May looks set to be a bumper month of brand-new slots entertainment, so stay with us as these new and exciting games get unleashed – right here at Slots Temple!
