Sure win? Yeah, right! What guarantee has anyone got that it's going to be a sure win and not a sure loss? In any game, there can only be a zero guarantee, and no one can ever be guaranteed a win, unless it's all been been rigged for it. So why is Microgaming naming this game 'Sure Win'? To me, this is just another marketing ploy to attract as much attention as possible, an attempt to pull in as many players as they can, but also a devious trick through a play of words for the unknowing. You may think it is just a name for a game, but it isn't. It is unethical to use such misleading titles for any gambling game!
The logo 'Sure Win' is the Wild symbol, paying a nice 7000x the line bet for 5 of them, and even triples all wins with it. Nice! It also substitutes for other symbols except the Scatter symbol. The Punter is the Scatter symbol, paying the usual 100x total bet for 5 of them, and getting 3 or more of the Punter symbols trigger the Free Spins game. There are 3 choices - 12 free spins with a 4x multiplier, 16 free spins with a 3x multiplier, or 24 free spins with a 2x multiplier, but the Free Spins game cannot be retriggered. The symbols in the game pay from 800x to 30x the line bet for 5 of each kind, making the paytable an average one. It is also indicated that the maximum possible win is 560,000 coins, or 1120x the total bet, which is not too bad at all, but you will definitely need to get the best win with the Wild symbol during the free spins, for a 3x and a 4x multiplied win. Don't even think that it may be easy to get!

I have played this game a few times before, but have never made any win from it. My most recent play on it was probably the worst of the lot. With a starting balance of $50, I played with the minimum bets of $0.25 all the way. The first blardy Free Spins game came only after 576 spins! That's not all of it. My credits balance was already down to under $2 left when that Free Spins game came, but it finally paid me back only 30x my bet amount, or about $7.60! What the argh! With less than $10 left, I carried on playing, and it went down straight to zero! If I'm a millionaire, I would sue Microgaming for this 'Sure Win' game, when all it did was to eat my credits each and every time I had played it. Not one single win in any of my plays. That's how bad this game is! Sheesh!
