11/29/2012
MGM Grand Detroit, recently voted the best casino in Detroit by the reader’s of Midwest Gaming and Travel, has added Lord of the Rings, Aladdin & The Magic Quest, and Super Team slot machines to its casino floor. All of the new state-of-the-art technology games are penny denomination.
“The technology is evolving so fast and the games that we have recently added do not disappoint. The quality of the graphics, sounds and animations is truly incredible. It really enhances the player’s experience at the slot machine,” said Troy Hammie, Vice President of Slot Operations at MGM Grand Detroit. “It’s great that there is an abundance of exciting penny slots on our casino floor but we have not forgotten nickel, quarter and one-dollar slots. Manufacturers have increased research and development into those segments as well. That creates a great mix on our casino floor, which translates into good news for our players.”
All three new games offer the latest Sensory Immersion Gaming from slot manufacturer WMS.
In Aladdin & The Magic Quest, players can take a virtual magic carpet ride utilizing a motion system chair that will offer as close to a thrill ride as a slot machine can offer. The experience includes 3D graphics, sound and movement with players enjoying unprecedented motion effects programmed to perfectly align with in-game events. Play features multiple bonuses like Clash of the Genie, where players fly into a battle with the genie and attempt to rescue the princess.
Frodo and his band of hobbits come to life in the Lord of the Ring slots. Players follow the storyline of the book and movie trilogy as they try to earn five Power Spin awards (Frodo Wilds, Random Reels Wild, Win Multiplier, Scatter Spin and Bonus Booster), and unlock eight bonuses (Gandalf’s Fireworks, Garden Heist, The Prancing Pony, Arwen’s Rescue, Isildur’s Sword, The Balrog, Galadriel's Stairway and Uruk-hai Battle Bonus).
Create a customizable hero in Super Team, the most customizable slot adventure in the industry. The game allows players to tailor their own super hero, select a team (Team Ruby - Extreme Play or Team Emerald - Smooth Play), enjoy more than 15 bonuses, and accumulate hero points to unlock additional bonuses and hero options. Collecting hero points and trophies allow players to unlock the Slotropolis Bonus and additional costumes to personalize the appearance of their Personal Hero.
A total of 10 news machines, four units each for Super Team and Lord of the Rings, and two units for Aladdin & The Magic Quest, have been added to the gaming floor.
Hammie adds, “These games are phenomenal, the action and excitement brings you right into the storylines. They go beyond the average slot experience.”
