With 2 New Games, Borgata Has the Most Lightning Link Slots of Any NJ Casino

by Leave a Comment

Our players absolutely love Lightning Link!  These super-fun machines are one of the most popular slots on our floor, and with the addition of two new games, Liberty Link’s Diamond Burst and Double Hot Fire Frenzy, Borgata will have the most Link titles of any casino in NJ, totaling at 36!

Both Diamond Burst and Double Hot Fire Frenzy’s “Hold & Spin” Experience expands Aristocrat’s “Hold & Spin” bonus for the first time to the stepper segment with a twist!  The bonus may be triggered from the base game or wheel bonus, featuring a mechanical spinning wheel. The “Hold & Spin” bonus uses math inspired by Lightning Link.

There’s also good news for players: there’s a higher jackpot win frequency to drive your playing energy!  It’s an easy to play “What You See Is What You Get” game that appeals to all players!  Both new titles are a lively addition to the familiar fun of the Link series, and have plenty of surprises for gamers!

Make sure you enjoy these two hot new games the next time that you head to Borgata’s casino floor!
