After Kit Harrington’s wedding, all eyes are once more turning to the Game of Thrones comeback to our screens next year for its final ever outing. But the battle for the throne is always going on in online and mobile slots world. Which throne would we rather take? The Iron Throne from Microgaming’s Game of Thrones slot, or the mysterious one from Forbidden Throne? Such an interesting question. There’s only one way to find out.

Ascending The Slot Throne

We want to love the Game of Thrones slot. We want it to give us our fix of Westeros until the next series arrives. But compared to Forbidden Throne, our passion seems to be lacking. It’s interesting, because while Microgaming does battle with other slots developers this battle is with itself. Both of these slots are Microgaming titles. So why does Forbidden Throne come out on top? We’re putting this down simply to the fact there’s no Jon Snow or Khaleesi…or dragons on the reels. Instead, we get the four main house banners, each of which offers different bonuses. For instance, House Stark gives us 14 free spins with a x3 multiplier. It’s a subtle spin on Game of Thrones, something which Microgaming’s other slot isn’t.

In fact, Forbidden Throne gets stuck into the action from the very beginning. We have mountains, mystical lands, intriguing female warrior characters and a range of bonus features including Wild Reels and Free Spins that can be retriggered. The visuals, the sound effects and the impressive animations add serious wow factor to this slot.

Who Takes The Throne?

Either way, Microgaming’s the winner. But Forbidden Throne is the slot that Game of Thrones should be. We can get our GOT fix on the latter, but when it’s fast paced, cutthroat action with incredible visuals we are after, it’s the Forbidden Throne slot that delivers.
