The Specialty Games section is often overlooked by players at online casinos. There are some interesting games to be found in this section. This article looks at two unusual games from the Specialty Games section of the software provider Realtime Gaming (RTG).

The first game is European Slot Poker. It is played like a video poker game but uses the conventional classic slots symbols instead of playing cards. The preliminaries involve selecting a coin denomination, loading the game with adequate credits and selecting the number of coins to wager. The payout table automatically adjusts for the number of coins wagered and shows the absolute payouts. When the game is activated five symbols are dealt to the player. The RTG software selects the best symbols to hold. The player can override this process and make the selection as he desires. Then the remaining symbols are changed and the final combination is compared with the payout table. The payout is made if the combination figures in the payout table.

The payout table is more like a slots payout table. The symbols pay out when there are three or more of them, but the symbols need not be aligned from left to right. RTG European Slot Poker offers two special symbols. The joker is a wild symbol, but it pays out even if it does not substitute in winning combinations. The diamond symbol only pays if all five symbols are diamonds. A gamble game is offered after each payout, but is structured somewhat differently from the usual video poker gamble games. Two bonus games are also offered in RTG European Slot Poker.

Roaring Twenties Bingo requires the player to complete certain bingo patterns within the stipulated number of balls. It is a fast paced game in which the player can wager on up to 100 cards in one draw and can set the auto play to up to 100 draws. Four cards are displayed in large size on the screen and the rest in smaller size. The player selects the number of cards and the amount wagered per card, which ranges from $0.01 to $5.00. RTG Roaring Twenties is based on the 90 ball bingo format. The bingo card contains 25 randomly selected numbers from 1 to 90, which are displayed in a 5 x 5 matrix. The game has 91 balls, the extra one being a wild ball. When the wild ball is drawn the central number on the card is automatically hit. 48 balls are drawn. If any of the patterns shown in the payout table is completed then the corresponding payout is awarded.

RTG Roaring Twenties Bingo offers an Extra Ball Replay. For an additional bet equal to the initial one the player is given five extra balls to complete the patterns. There are three progressive jackpots offered in RTG Roaring Twenties Bingo. The Maxi Progressive Jackpot pays out if all 25 numbers on the card are hit. The Real Series of RTG slots feature the popular Major and Minor progressive jackpots that can hit randomly after any spin. These are included in RTG Roaring Twenties Bingo.

European Slot Poker and Roaring Twenties Bingo can be played at all RTG online casinos. Club World Casino, Sun Palace Casino, Rushmore Casino and Casino Titan are highly recommended.
