Pure Platinum Is the Video Slot for the Rich

Pure Platinum is a new video slot created by Microgaming and released in October 2009. It has a very sleek and silvery looking design with a lot of wealthy images, such as expensive watches, gleaming diamond rings and platinum ingots.

With Microgaming's superior graphics and smooth sounding music, Pure Platinum is a relaxing casino slot without a lot of passion. This video slot has 5 reels and 40 pay lines, and the coin denominations are very low (from 0.01 to 0.05), so it gives you many chances to win. But Pure Platinum does not have a lot of animation or any story line and, therefore, it is not as exciting as some other Microgaming video slots.

Some of the Features of Pure Platinum

The Pure Platinum logo is the wild symbol. With the appearance of 3, 4 or 5 of the Pure Platinum logos on activated pay lines, you open up a bonus screen which allows you a choice of free spins and multipliers. You will see three Pure Platinum crucibles. Each one offers a different free spin option with multipliers: 10 free spins with x5 multiplier, 25 spins with x2 multiplier or 50 free spins with x1 multiplier. With these Pure Platinum options you can pick a huge number of spins with no bonus multiplier, or just a few with a big multiplier or something in between.

The scatter symbol in the Pure Platinum video slot is the Pure Platinum record. Two of these will award you with a minimum win, but three or more will give you free spins.

There is also a Gamble feature in this casino slot where you can double or quadruple your winnings if you pick the correct card color and card suit.

I played Pure Platinum in the practice mode for over an hour and not once was I able to achieve the second bonus screen. Those Pure Platinum scatter records are very hard to come by. I made a lot of minor wins, but since the minor wins are less than your maximum bet, you end up losing. Perhaps if I had been playing for real money I would have done better. In summary, this video slot is very attractive with its shining platinum sleek look, but it becomes a bit of a bore after awhile.
