Rival Gaming has released a new i-slot, much to the delight of their i-slot fans. The new game is called Bowled Over, and as the name implies, it follows a bowling theme.

Bowled Over is a 5 reel, 20 payline slot game, in which players can place bets of up to ten coins on each payline. The betting denominations run from 1c to 25c, which makes it an accessible slot game to all.

The bowling scene is set with symbols such as bowling pins, bowlers, bowling balls, bowling shoes, traditional playing card values of 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace, and bowling lanes. The male bowler is one that players will be looking out for if they are hoping for a jackpot win. When there are five male bowlers, players will win the largest jackpot payout that is available in this i-slot, totaling 3,000 coins. When placing a maximum bet, this means that players will win the sum of around $7,500.

To add more excitement to the game, players will be looking out for the female bowler symbol. She brings with her free spins. When players see three or more of the female bowler free spins symbol, there will be free spins triggered. With three female bowlers, there are ten free spins that come along with a 2x multiplier. Four female bowlers on the reels gives players 20 free spins, and a 3x multiplier. Five female bowler symbols give players an incredible 40 free spins, and a 4x multiplier.

There is an expanding wild symbol that expands to fill an entire reel, helping to form new wins. This double play wild can only appear on the first two reels. When this wild occurs, players will see a bowling ball rolling along the lanes hitting all the pins for a strike.

Players will enjoy the interactive bonus game, which is triggered when there are three or more bowling ball symbols on the reels. Players then have a choice of either the male bowler, or the female bowler, the amount of spin to put on the ball, and how hard they would like the ball to be bowled. As in a regular round of bowling, the player has the chance to bowl twice, with the aim being to knock down all ten bowling pins. The reward is bigger if players manage to achieve a strike. Getting a spare, which is knocking down the rest of the pins on the second bowl, gives the second highest payout for the bonus round. The bonus round can take place a number of times while playing this slot game. Each time, the bonus round counts as another frame of a 10-frame bowling game.
