With golfing season in full swing, Microgaming presents The Argyle Open tournament slot.

Golf-themed, The Argyle Open, is a five reel, 40 line video slot. The game centres on a three-stage tournament bonus, triggered by three or more scatter symbols. Once triggered, gamers must choose from one of five pro-golfers to take to the green to play just one hole; the aim of which is to putt the hole in as few strokes as possible to achieve maximum free spins. Up to 20 free spins are available with a 5x multiplier, and each time the bonus is triggered, the player moves to the next hole on the course.

Microgaming has taken this online slot, originally launched on the Casino platform in 2010, and developed it for tournament play. The Argyle Open tournament slot went live August 20th and is being used for September’s €100,000 network tournament. Entry into golf’s finest challenge is just €10; the top 50 players will win a cash prize and the champion will take home €5,000!

James Ford, Product Manager for Microgaming's multi-player games, comments: “For us, it’s all about timely content; delivering games to our operators’ players that will get them excited and keep them engaged. September holds one of the biggest tournaments in the golfing calendar, so what better time to deliver The Argyle Open tournament slot and the associated €100,000 network tournament! You don’t have to be at Gleneagles to be a part of the golfing action!”
