Aces and Eights is a single deck, 52 card game where you play against a machine, with generous payouts for Four of a Kind hand combinations. It has an Analyser Table, a unique facility to Microgaming, that offers guidance on current odds and cover permutations, which helps players in their decision making process.
Bonus Deuces Wild is a five-card draw poker game where players determine which cards are worth “holding” and which cards are worth replacing. As the name suggests, ‘twos’ are Wild, which means they can stand in for any card in the deck. Whenever a player gets one or more deuces in their final hand, the computer will automatically assign a suit and value to it to give the player the highest possible payout in light of the other cards they are holding, ensuring that it is a lot easier to create potentially winning hands.
Warren Eloff, Head of Products at Virgin Games, commented: “These two new online video poker games both have top quality audio visuals which replicate the atmosphere of playing in a land based casino. Bonus Deuces Wild is already hugely popular among land casino players, so we anticipate its simple style, ease of play and the potential for big rewards will make it a big hit with our customers.”
Founded in 2004, Virgin Games has over 1,000,000 players and over 250 games on its site. Through the introduction of a custom built Virgin Games platform in 2008, Virgin Games seeks to provide its players with the widest possible choice of casino games. A growing selection of games can be found at Virgin Games from a number of producers including Microgaming, IGT, Cryptologic, Freemantle, Ash Gaming and Mazooma Interactive Games.
