New Osbournes Game
The Osbournes online video slot game has just been released by Microgaming.
It has been eagerly awaited by the online gaming world and is sure to be popular with punters. It features the whole family; Ozzy, Sharon, Jack, Kelly and Minnie the dog. The game is based on the reality television series the Osbournes which won an Emmy and ran until March 2005. It has made stars out of the whole family, with Sharon now being a judge in the X-Factor, Kelly has had a pop career and now stars in the West End musical Chicago and Jack has presented shows on television.
The Osbournes game is a 5 reel, 20 pay-line slot and boasts superb graphics. All the slot symbols are linked to the Osbournes.
It has several bonus features such as free spins, multiplier boosts and cash prizes. In the base game, players can win as much as 75,000 coins and with free spins this can go up to 150,000 coins. There is also a ‘Door Knocker’ bonus whereby 50,000 coins can be won and other bonuses are worth up to 3,000 coins. Betting is available up to 10 coins per line making it possible to bet a maximum of 100 coins. The ‘Door Knocker’ feature allows the player to choose from a selection of gargoyle door knockers with a different prize amount behind each knocker.
The game features a first for online gaming, with an on-screen trail bonus feature above the slots within free spins, where Minnie the dog acts as trigger and indicator. If you get 3, 4 or 5 Mini symbols across the reels then ten free spins are triggered together with a trail feature above the reels. This feature continues along four levels – one for Jack, Kelly, Sharon and Ozzy with the object being to reach Ozzy for the jackpot, although each level has its own cash bonus. Chief Executive of Microgaming Roger Raatgever said, This announcement isn’t just about one of the biggest game launches of the year, but one of the biggest game launches since this industry started – from any software provider.
To be launching a video slot featuring one of the most famous entertainment families in the world just shows how far into the entertainment industry we’ve come and long may it continue. We set out to create a video slot that blends fantastic graphics and gameplay with striking new features and a touch of celebrity; and we believe we’ve achieved that. From the moment we announced this game was coming, we’ve had players from all over the world contacting our operators for the release date.
Well, the wait is over. Enjoy!
The game has attracted the official endorsement of the Osbourne family.

I’ll certainly have a little flutter.”
