Week 43 New Casino Games October

Another action-packed week of slot releases brings ended. Find out all those games in our Week 43 New Casino Games October Report (Image from casinoplusbonus.com)

When you do the math, it is amazing how many new casino games have been released to date this year.

We are in week 43 now and if we use an average of 25 new titles every 7 days as a barometer, that means an astonishing 1,075 slots, table games, and live casino games have made their debuts to date in 2022. Plus, there are still two months of the year left to go, which will include a barrage of Thanks Giving, Christmas and New Year slot titles.

As for this week, the total number of new casino games hit our average with 25 juicy titles to get stuck into. 24 new video slots and 1 live dealer games from iGaming developers, including Pragmatic Play, Relax Gaming, Red Tiger Gaming, BGaming, Yggdrasil and Evolution. They will now feature at many of the reliable online casinos supplying quality gaming action.

As you might expect at this spooky time of the year, some of the new video slots have a Halloween/Horror theme. Off the top of my head, Red Tiger Gaming launched Tricks and Treats while other notable mentions include Witch Feature (Gong Gaming), Castle of Terror (Big Time Gaming) and Devil’s Trap (Stakelogic). As for other themes, you can enjoy anything from pigs and candy to fishing for bass and there is the return of the famous Elvis Frog.

Anyhow, enough of the chit-chat. Let’s get down to business. This report will bring you our top 5 picks of the new casino games launched over the past 7 days before giving you the full rundown of 20 additional new casino games released over the week in one all-encompassing list at the bottom of this report.

Last Week’s Report: My compadre Jack Bannon stepped in to put last week’s report together. He was able to deliver news of 29 new casino games launched the week before. Many of those were Halloween-themed slots (much like this week), so if you like ghosts, witches, and candy, go check them out.

Top 5 Video Slot Releases – [October] 2022 / Week [43]

It has been another awesome week of new casino game releases and once again, we have had to argue amongst the team to pick out our top 5. Thankfully, as we have this time, we can do this on ‘most’ occasions without coming to blows. After a few heated words, some name calling and a bit of swearing and we eventually come to an agreement. We all have our own opinions just as you do, so you may not fully agree with our final decision. You can always let us know your thoughts in the comment section at the bottom of this report.

  • Elvis True Ways (BGaming)

This is one of the slots we have all been waiting for. It’s the third (technically fourth) edition of the famous frog that burst onto the iGaming scene in 2020 via the BGaming development studios. That was his first appearance with his lover in Elvis Frog in Vegas. He returned in the Aloha King Elvis sequel and now he’s back for the brand-new Elvis True Ways slot title at BGaming online casinos.

Elvis the Frog brings with him a huge 96.79% Theoretical RTP, a possible max win of 5,000x your spin bet, wilds with multipliers, bonus symbols, free spins, buy bonus, a coin respin feature and lightning symbol as well as 3 non-progressive jackpots. What a combination of features! What’s more, this slot uses 5 reels with anything up to 8 symbols per reel, plus there is a buy bonus worth 100x your spin bet and x2 chance that doubles your spin bet in order to land the free spins bonus

Let’s start with the star of the show. Elvis the Frog is the wild symbol, and he resides on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5. He helps you land combination wins. Next up is his green star record (it’s better than a platinum record in this world), which is the scatter. This symbol will pay 2x, 5x, 10x or 20x your spin bet when landing 3, 4, 5 or 6 anywhere in the reels. Also, 4, 5 or 6 scatters trigger 12, 15 or 20 free spins, respectively. During the free spins bonus, Elvis Frog not only uses his wildcard powers to help complete combination wins, but he also multiplies them by x2, x3 or x5. And you win 5, 12, 15, or 20 additional free spins if 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters land during the free spins bonus.

During the base game, if 6+ gold coins land on the reels, a respin feature will kick off. These 6 coins stick to the reels and 3 respins will ensue. Only coins will spin on the reels and any new ones that land will also remain sticky, and this will also reset the respins to 3 again. The feature round stops when 3 respins produce no more new gold coins. Each coin is worth between x1 and 20x your bet. Meanwhile, you can also land mini, mega or major jackpot symbols to trigger 20x, 100x or 1,000x your spin bet. If a lightning bolt hits the reels at any time during free spins, it will free up more spaces so reels can fit in more gold coins for bigger wins.

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers: Here are the payouts for 5-symbol combination wins on the new Elvis Frog Trueways slot release. Elvis Frog’s Lady (5x), Pink Cadillac (3x), Guitar (2x), Microphone (1x), A (0.5x), K (0.5x), Q (0.5x), J (0.5x).

  • Big Bass Bonanza Keeping It Reel (Pragmatic Play)

We have another Big Bass Bonanza slot title to join the trending series. Pragmatic Play releases Big Bass Bonanza Keeping It Reel—a 5×3 slot with 10 pay lines and wins worth up to 10,000x your spin bet. And there’s a buy bonus for 100x your bet or you can use the ‘Extra Chance of Scatters’, which increases your spin bet by 50%.

Embark on another fantastic fishing adventure in a new water hole with even bigger multipliers to fish out from yet another reel set with innovative 3D graphics and animations. As you open the reels, you’ll sink to hook level, giving you a perfect underwater view of the slot’s scenic lake backdrop set in the belly of snowy mountains. Once submerged into this colourful big bass habitat, you’ll spin away baiting the reels for symbol combinations worth up to 200x your spin bet. Plus, there’s wilds, scatters, money symbols, a golden wild, and a free spins bonus that comes with the chance of netting additional spins with up to 10x multipliers.

Altogether, there are 10 regular symbols. The highest paying is the fishing float worth 0.5x, 5x, 20x or 200x, your spin bet when landing 2, 3, 4 or 5 on a pay line. All other symbols will pay when 3, 4 or 5 symbols land from left to right on a pay line. To assist you in catching the combination wins, there’s a green bass wild symbol. However, your biggest catches lay within the Big Bass Bonanza Keeping It Reel scatter combination, which will trigger a free spins bonus packed with unique features.

3, 4 or 5 scatters trigger 10, 15 or 20 free spins. During the bonus, the fish symbols take a monetary value. Each time they land on the reels, the cash value of each one accumulates in a ‘Landing Net’ at the top of the reels. Any combination wins head to the ‘Total Win’ at the bottom of the screen. When the round ends, both the ‘Landing Net’ and ‘Total Win’ values club together to give you your total win, which could be anything up to 10,000x. However, it is worth noting that on every free spin, one of the money fish escapes from the ‘Landing Net’, lowering the value slightly. I guess that’s Pragmatic Play’s way of giving the little guys a chance.

There’s also a ‘Golden Wild’ that can land during free spins. It will automatically collect the current value in the landing net and all money fish on the reels from the spin. The sum of this collection then adds to your ‘Total Win’ (it means no more fish can escape at this point and the ‘Landing Net’ resets). On top of all this, the free spins game collects all wilds and golden wilds using a progressive counter at the bottom of the reels.

  • 4 wilds = +10 additional free spins with x2 multipliers
  • 8 wilds = +10 additional free spins with x3 multipliers
  • 12 wilds = +10 additional free spins with x10 multipliers

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers: 5-symbol combinations pay as follows: Fishing Float (200x), Fishing Rod (100x), Dragon Fly (50x), Tackle Box (50x), Bass (20x), A (10x), K (10x), Q (5x), J (5x), 10 (5x).

Big Bass Bonanza Keeping It Reel Online Slot Features

Big Bass Bonanza Keeping It Reel (Pragmatic Play)
  • 5×3 Reels with 10 Paylines
  • 96.07% Theoretical RTP
  • High Variance/Volatility
  • Wild Symbols
  • Scatter Symbols
  • Free Spins Bonus
  • Fish Money Symbols
  • Golden Wild Symbol
  • Progressive Multipliers
  • Min-Max Bets 0.10–375.00
  • Max Win 10,000x
  • Tricks and Treats (Red Tiger Gaming)

The next slot in our Week 43 New Casino Games October Report is yet another that celebrates this spooky time of year. Halloween-themed slots are understandably coming thick and fast at the moment and yet another to hit the online casinos is Tricks and Treats from the multi-award-winning Red Tiger Gaming. The question is, will this slot give you the creeps and have you handing out candy, or will it inspire you to man up and take the trick?

Tricks and Treats is a 5-reel, 4-row video slot and you have to line up winning combinations of spooky symbols on one or more of the 25 paylines. What I personally like is the fact that this video slot has a low variance. That is refreshing in a world where currently everything is high (or at least medium). On the reels, you will see many Halloween-themed symbols, including ghosts, candles, black cats, and rather oddly, a cupcake.

Where this title really comes into its own is via the Ticks and Treats symbols. When you land Treat symbols anywhere in view, they will pay out instant cash prizes of between 1x and 25x your stake. As for the Trick symbols, these also act as scatters. This time, however, they will turn into wild symbols once they land on the reels. Along with each instance of a Trick comes a multiplier of up to 3x. That multiplier will apply to any winning combinations they help to create.

While those features can bring you much-needed wins, it is the free spins round that can really deliver the profits. When you land 3, 4, or 5 Halloween Spins symbols, you trigger 10, 12, or 15 free spins, respectively. The Tricks and Treats symbols remain in play during this feature, but with a difference. Whenever you land the Tricks symbols, the multipliers they reveal stack up throughout the remaining free spins. The global multiplier you can receive is capped at 15x.

All in all, Tricks and Treats is a great new title from Red Tiger Gaming. It is one of those that, while developed for the Halloween season, is perfectly playable all year round!

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers:There are 8 regular symbols on the reels of Tricks and Treats. They pay when you land 3 or more matching symbols on an active payline from left to right. 5-symbol combinations pay as follows: Black Cats (250x), Ghosts (120x), Cupcakes (75x), Candles (50x), Ace (30x), King (20x), Queen (15x), and Jack (10x).

Tricks and Treats Online Slot Features

  • 5×4 Reels with 25 Paylines
  • 95.73% Theoretical RTP
  • Low Variance/Volatility
  • Wild Symbols
  • Scatter Symbols
  • Free Spins with a Global Multiplier
  • Min-Max Bets 0.10–100.00
  • Max Win 1,696x
  • The Great Pigsby Megaways (Relax Gaming)

If The Great Pigsby Megaways video slot is setting bells ringing in your head, there is a good reason. Relax Gaming has already released The Great Pigsby and then followed that up with The Great Pigsby Megapays. In the latter, they added to the popular original by pinging on four progressive jackpots. In this variation, however, those jackpots have gone while you now have the Megaways reel mechanic to look forward to.

That mechanic means that each reel can have a random number of between 2 and 7 symbols. That can lead to up to 117,649 ways to win. Of course, you do not have to worry about paylines as you just need to land matching symbols on consecutive reels from the first reel. As for those symbols, the likes of cigars, whisky, gramophones and the male and female pigs return. After all, this slot is themed on living the high life (but in a piggy world).

Aside from the thrilling wins you can pull in from the Megaways, are a ton of enjoyable bonus features. Wild symbols can expand to fill their reels and when they land, coins get put into the giant piggy bank above the reels. When that happens, there is a chance to trigger one of three bonus features. The Great Pigsby Respin feature adds 3-9 high-paying symbols to positions on the reels, You then have a Wild Respin feature that turns 2 to 5 reels completely wild before repinning the remaining.

Finally, you can win 10 free spins. During this feature, each time a scatter symbol lands, you win an additional two spins and a low-paying symbol is removed completely from the reels. They are replaced by non-royal symbols that transform into high-paying symbols whenever they land.

Those three features on top of the Megaways mechanic mean this slot has plenty going for it. Is it as good as the original? The jury is still out but I definitely recommend you check it out.

Combination Spin Bet Multipliers:There are 10 regular symbols on the reels of The Great Pigsby Megaways. They pay when you land 3 or more matching symbols on consecutive reels from the 1st reel: The 6-symbol combination for each symbol is as follows: Male Pig (3x), Female Pig (2x), Tiara(1x), Gramophone (0.80x), Cigar (0.50x), Ace/King/Queen/Jack/Ten/Nine (0.40x).

  • Castle of Terror (Big Time Gaming)

Castle of Terror makes it to our top 5 not just because of its inventive gameplay and in with the Halloween season theme, but also because of its high 96.72% RTP. It also comes with 4,096 ways to win and a max win of 61,720x your bet. That’s some combination of incentivising selling points that video slot players will surely take note of.

Big Time Gaming welcomes players to this spooky Castle of Terror with the host of this house of horrors being a blood-sucking vampire. Perfect for Halloween! You’ll stand at the front gates rolling in symbol combination wins, wilds, a ‘Holy Water’ feature, scatters, free spins with unlimited win multipliers, mega scatter enhanced free spins, win exchange for free spins, and there’s a bonus buy feature.

  • Buy 12 free spins for 70x your spin bet
  • Buy 12 enhanced free spins for 200x your spine bet

During the base game, if holy water hits any of the picture symbols, it will convert into a wild symbol. A win multiplier on that spin will then increase by x1. You will also see two scatters on the reels. One is a ‘Silver’ vampire castle and the other a ‘Gold’ vampire castle. 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters anywhere in view awards 12, 15, 18 or 21 free spins. If there is a ‘Gold’ scatter triggering the bonus, then you get to play the ‘Mega Scatter Enhanced Free Spins’.

The ‘Holy Water’ feature will occur on every free spin. For each picture symbol that turns wild, the multiplier will increase by +1, and once it reaches 20x, you receive an additional 6 free spins. If you are playing in the ‘Mega Scatter Enhanced Free Spins’ round, the multipliers increase by +2.

A final and unique feature of the Castle of Terror video slot is the ‘Win Exchange’. When you reach 25x to 100x your stake in winnings, you can gamble to exchange the win for 12 free spins. Also, a direct win of 100x your spin bet offers the exchange without the need to gamble.
