Online casino software group, Microgaming has a fabulous new festive gift for players. The group announced the rollout of a new branded slot game, Bullseye, which went live at partner casinos this month.
Bullseye is based on the classic TV show which was a huge hit in the United Kingdom between 1981 and 1995. Hosted by Jim Bowen, the show is a recognized feature of mainstream culture in many parts of the world.
Microgaming's new Bullseye slot does the show justice, presenting players with a 5 x 3 reel, 243 ways to win game, in a retro wrap and great extras such as voiceovers by Jim Bowen and his co-host Tony Green.
"This game revisits one of the most-loved television shows of the era," said Mike Hebden, the head of casino games at Microgaming. "The online slot embraces all the show features that made the program so popular, including the classic one-liners, prize board, and Bully's star prizes. Available to operators today, we expect the game to excite fans new and old, and with darts season on the horizon, it is the perfect time to unleash our Bullseye slot!"
About Bullseye Slot
The reels in Bullseye slot are based on the original show's main prizes, which included caravans, cars and speedboats.
During the special bonus round, which is activated by prize board symbols on reels 1 and 5, players throw darts at the board for the opportunity to win cash prizes.
If players get three or more scatter symbols on the reels, they win their way to a fabulous re-triggerable free spins bonus round for the chance to play 15 free games. All winnings are doubled during the free spins round, and the scatter could pay between 5 times and 100 times!
Bullseye Show
Created by Andrew Wood, the Bullseye game show pitted three pairs of contestants against each other for the chance to win big prizes such as cars, caravans or luxury holidays. Consolation prizes included sets of darts, silver goblets and a rubber model of the show's mascot, Bendy Bully. Each team of contestants comprised of one who answered questions and another who threw the darts.
After being off the screen for over a decade, it was decided to revive Bullseye on Challenge in April 2006, and it ran for 30 episodes.
