As online casino fans, we really are spoiled when it comes to the quantity and quality of games that we have at our disposal. Over 100 iGaming developers churn out an average of 100 new games each month. As you will see by typing ‘new games July’ into our search bar, there have already been 71 new casino games released this month alone, and that is without the 23 in this report and with another week still to go!

As mentioned, there were another 23 casino games launched into the online world last week. These came courtesy of big-name developers including Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, iSoftBet, Relax Gaming, Amusnet, Playson, and Push Gaming. While the majority were slots, as you might expect, there was also a flurry of live casino games launched as well.

In this Week 30 New Casino Games report, we will fill you in on each of those titles. We will give you miniature reviews of five of the best new slot titles while also providing a full list of all new casino games at the bottom.

Before we get started, why not check out our full review of the Luxor Gold: Hold and Win video slot from Playson? The slot is another exceptional release from an iGaming developer that never ceases to amaze. It uses the popular Hold and Win mechanics while also featuring lucrative bonus features such as stacked wilds, free spins, re-spins, and a treasure chest feature. Plus, it gives you the chance to win four different fixed jackpots.

Top 5 Video Slot Releases – [July] 2022 / Week [30]

It is never easy deciding which of the many slots released each week are among the best. That is a testament to the quality offered by all iGaming developers. However, we have to make a decision or there is no point in having this section of the Week 30 New Casino Games report! Below, you will find five mini-reviews of the titles that we think were the top five best new titles released last week (in no particular order).

• Luxor Gold: Hold and Win (Playson)

There is a genuine air of excitement whenever Playson announces the release of a new video slot, and that was no different when we heard about Luxor Gold: Hold and Win. First off, the iGaming brand has delivered this new title using a theme that has always been popular with slot fans. The Ancient Egypt theme has always attracted fans, and that was long before the likes of Play’n Go’s Book of Dead came along.

In Luxor Gold: Hold and Win, you have a lot to look forward to. For a start, this title uses the Hold and Win bonus feature that could land you one of four fixed jackpots. The Grand jackpot and its 5,000x payout are the ultimate aim there. You need to land 6 gold coins in the base game to trigger that feature, or you could gain access via the Treasure Chest feature that triggers randomly.

That is not all, as three scatter symbols anywhere in view on the three middle rows will trigger 8 free spins. What is special about this particular free spins round? All low-paying symbols are removed from the reels. That means only high-paying symbols and their lucrative payouts that could potentially come your way.

As you can see above, Luxor Gold: Hold and Win offer up plenty of entertainment and a good collection of bonus features. However, the Hold and Win feature has to be the ultimate goal. Even if you do not win the Grand Jackpot, land enough coins and mystery symbols and you can still forge yourself a good payout!

Combination Wins Bet Multipliers: When 3, 4 or 5 alike symbols land on a pay line, this qualifies as a win. The 5 symbols payouts are as follows: Eagle Symbol (10x), Eye of Ra Symbol (8x), Ankh Symbol (6x), Lotus Symbol (4x), A, K, Q, and J (2x).

• Volatile Vikings 2: Dream Drop (Relax Gaming)

The third Dream Drop jackpot slot after Temple Tumble 2: Dream Drop and Snake Arena: Dream Drop, and the sequel to Volatile Vikings, this is another new title that you just have to check out. Volatile Vikings 2: Dream Drop from Relax Gaming offers the scatter pays mechanic, a 5×6 grid format, cascading symbols, Multiplier Reveal symbols, Free Spins, and of course, the chance to win one of 5 Dream Drop Jackpots – one of which could land you up to €10,000,000.

When you form a scatter win on the reels, winning symbols disappear and allow others to drop into place. The cascade feature means that additional wins can land, which can start off a chain reaction of wins. On each spin, Mystery Reveal symbols will land on each of the 3rd and 4th reels. They contain a multiplier value and a counter. That counter reduces by 1 after each cascade win. Once the counter reaches 0, that multiplier applies to your current spin win while the symbol explodes to allow even more symbols to drop into the action.

On top of that, if you land 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols, you trigger 6, 7, or 8 free spins, respectively. This feature plays out similar to the base game, just with one core difference. The Mystery Reveal symbols add to a global multiplier rather than resetting after each spin.

Of course, the ultimate aim is the ‘Mega’ Dream Drop progressive jackpot that can reach up to €10,000,000. Even if you miss that, the Major, Maxi, Midi, and Rapid jackpots all offer decent payouts. The jackpot game triggers randomly on any spin and requires you to collect symbols for each jackpot. Collect the required number for one of the jackpots, and that is the one you win.

Combination Wins Bet Multipliers: Volatile Vikings 2: Dream Drop uses the Scatter Pays mechanic which means all symbols pay anywhere in view as long as there are 8 or more. The following are the 12+ combination win multipliers for each symbol. Red Mask (50x), Orange Mask (25x), Green Mask (15x), Purple Mask (12x), Blue Mask (10x), Orange/Green Symbol (6x), Purple/Blue Symbol (3x).

• Tropical Tiki (Pragmatic Play)

Amazingly, this is the 8th casino game Pragmatic Play has released in the last couple of weeks. We even know that there is a new Wolf Gold: Power Jackpot slot due imminently, as well as another two titles set for release next week. That is an amazing output and shows why this firm is a multi-award winner. As you will see from Tropical Tiki, the quality of the titles is not sacrificed either.

The first thing that you will notice in this Polynesian-themed slot is the quality of the graphics and animations. It really is pleasing to the eye without being too much for mobile devices to handle. The soundtrack also keeps you in the mood to stick around to enjoy more spins.

However, the key selling point is the game itself. This is a ways-to-win slot that gives you 729 ways to win during the base game, and up to 6,400 during the free spins feature. What stands out is the reverse tumbling reels mechanic. Rather than winning symbols disappearing after you land a winning combination, it is all the losing symbols that get removed. This allows further symbols to drop into play. That means you can improve the winning combination you already created or land new ones on top.

That mechanic carries over into the free spins round. When you land 4 or more scatter symbols, you trigger 8 free spins. This time, each free spin will unlock one position, which increases the ways to win available. Unlock the entire 5×6 grid and that gives you 6,400 ways to win. You also have the option of buying free spins for a cost of 100x your stake.

Combination Wins Bet Multipliers: When you land 3, 4, 5, or 6 symbols on a payway, you will earn a payout. The following payouts are for each 6-symbol combination for each of the regular symbols on Tropical Tiki. Red Tiki mask (2x), Gree Tiki Mask (1.2x), Blue Tiki Mask (1x), Red Fruit (0.80x), Gree Fruit (0.60x), Coconut (0.40x), Ace/King (0.28x), Queen/Jack/10 (0.16x).

• Cash of Command (Play’n GO)

Do you have what it takes to defeat Baron Fusco by guiding some of your best naval heroes? Cash of Command, the latest slot title from Play’n GO gives you that chance. This gorgeous-looking slot offers high variance gameplay, fantastic graphics, and a whole heap of bonus features!

Cash of Command utilises a cluster pays and cascading symbols mechanic across a 9×9 grid format that could unlock your strongest naval powers. As you land winning combinations of 5 or more matching symbols, a meter to the left of the reels collects the symbols you destroy. Reach certain milestones and you will trigger your greatest naval war heroes and their powers. They will bring their ships and submarines onto the reels to help you progress towards Baron Fusco himself.

Each ship/submarine will fire unique power-ups onto the grid. If you reach the Baron, he will come onto the grid and destroy 2 out of 3 of your naval heroes’ ships. The remaining ship will turn into a super version of itself and unleash an enhanced power-up.

Commander Wilder’s ship will fire 8 wilds (32 when ‘Super’), Captain Verto’s will convert 2 (3 when ‘Super’) symbol types on the reels into the same type, and Admiral Magna’s submarine fires 4 mega symbols of 2×2 (2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 when ‘Super’) onto the reels.

Along the way, wild symbols will help you to create winning combinations, while non-winning spins could trigger the turrets at the bottom of the reels to fire additional wilds onto the grid. Get lucky enough during the Cash of Command slot and you might even land the top payout of 5.336x your stake! Why not try it now for free over at Play’n GO?

Combination Wins Bet Multipliers: Cash of Command uses the Cluster Pays mechanic which means you win payouts when you land clusters of more than 5 and as many as 50+ matching symbols. The following are the 50+ combination win multipliers for each symbol: Red Gem (5,000x), Green Gem (1,000x), Blue Gem (500x), Purple/White/Blue/Brown/Green Rank (100x).

• Wolf Canyon: Hold & Win (iSoftBet)

The latest in iSoftBet’s Hold & Win range of slots, and the sequel to Wolf Canyon, this slot is up there with the best released in the past week. It offers a 96% RTP, a Hold & Win feature, wild symbols, jackpots, and more! As for the graphics, these are more than adequate while the soundtrack has that native American feel that offers up mystery and calmness.

Triggering the Hold & Win features requires 5 or more Cash moon symbols anywhere in view. Those cash moon symbols remain sticky during this feature that requires you to collect more of these symbols until you fill all positions. As you might expect from this popular feature, you win 3 re-spins that reset each time you land further cash moon symbols. This continues until you fill all positions (and win the 1,000x grand jackpot) or you run out of re-spins. If the latter, you still win the combined values of the cash moon symbols that you collected. That can include cash values or the Mini (30x), Minor (100x), or Major (500x) jackpot prizes.

Another feature to look forward to is the Wolf picking game. You need to land 3 scatters on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th reels to trigger this bonus game. Once in, you simply pick the white or black wolf to reveal one of two bonuses. You either trigger the Hold & Win feature or free spins. If the latter, you will receive 8, 10, or 12 spins of the reels that will contain an additional 25, 50, 75, or 100 wild symbols.

The final feature is the randomly triggered Dreamcatcher feature. When this triggers, you will receive an instant cash payout of either 8x, 88x, 888x, or a whopping 8,888x your stake.

Combination Wins Bet Multipliers: When 3, 4 or 5 alike symbols land on a pay line, this qualifies as a win. The 5 symbols payouts are as follows: Woman Symbol (6x), Black/White/Brown Wolf Symbols (4x), King Symbol (3x), Queen/Jack/Ten Symbols (2x).
