Microgaming has released three new online slots. One of them, which I already reviewed, is the Lion’s Pride slot. While that slot offers a lot for nature lovers, Argyle Open is a new online slot geared toward sports fans.

I don’t consider myself a gold aficionado, but I did play it when I was a kid. Okay, it was mostly miniature golf, but my dad let me swing the big clubs sometimes, too. We also had a driving range near the house that I got to play at after school.

Anyway, the Argyle Open slot brings back memories of playing golf in my youth and does a good job of portraying a fictional major golf tournament. The slot’s background shows a pristine view, with a landscaped golf course seen under a clear blue sky. The Argyle Open slot features symbols of the crest and logo of the tournament (and thus, the game). It also has symbols of different golfers in different well-known poses. There is one chipping a ball out of a sand trap. There is another golfer celebrating making a put. The slot also has symbols that are close-ups of a golfer’s cleats, the golf bag, and the flag at the hole.

Argyle Open is a 5-reel, 40-payline video slot that features some good bonuses, such as up to 20 free spins and a multiplier bonus. What I like best about this online slot, though, are the bonus games.

There are three different bonus games in this online slot and they all relate to the game of golf. There is a Drive Bonus, where you drive the ball off the tee and hit it as far as you can. The farther it goes, the more bonus points you get. There is also a Fairway Bonus, where you hit the ball on the fairway as far as you can and as close to the hole as you can. You get points for how far the ball travels. Lastly, there is the Putt Bonus, which is a take on my favorite part of the game. In this bonus, you putt the ball and try to get it in the hole. You are rewarded more points for getting it closer to the hole, with the most possible points reserved for actually sinking the putt.

I’ve played golf video games on the Wii and over gaming consoles and to be honest, the bonus games on this online slot are just as much fun. Sure, they’re not as fun as playing the game for real, but at least you won’t get a sunburn this way.

The Argyle Open slot brings all of the fun of a major golf tournament to your home and combines it with exciting online slot action. The game can be found at Roxy Palace Casino.
