Are New Slot Games Tighter?

Do you think it’s a casino trick when online casinos release new slot games and make them impossible to win on? I have to wonder if they have the ability to tighten up those reels. I receive emails all the time with new slot releases. Whether they are Real Time Gaming, Rival, Playtech or Betsoft it is always the same. The marketing is amazing and it lures me in each and every time. I feel that itch to be one of the first to play it.

I got word from Jackpot Party that they released Blue Lagoon. I logged in right away and gave it a go. It features the WMS Hot Hot Penny feature. It is basically a re-spin. If you get two or more “Feature” symbols on the reels, the reels re-spin allowing the opportunity for land more “Feature” symbols. Three or more “Feature” symbols trigger the feature which involves choosing squares to reveal free spins. You can win up to 36 free spins. Well, it must be nice! I have no idea what it would feel like to hit the bonus on Blue Lagoon.

In the same week, I received an email notification of the release of Tycoons from Betsoft. I logged into my 7 Red account right away. This slot features some very wealthy poker players. There are several bonus opportunities available on this such as free spins with a wild reel, the “Choose a Fortune” pick-me feature and a bonus game. The bonus game requires you to select a favorite tycoon to win the poker hand. I played this slot for I don’t know how long and never saw the bonus game. I could not get it to save my life!

I began to think back to other slot game releases. I played them immediately and have never had luck. Is it me? Is there anyone out there that has experience this pattern of complete and utter loss when it comes to new slot games? Oh and if you happen to see the bonus rounds on either Blue Lagoon or Tycoons, please share a screen shot with me.
