Swintt strikes gold in Dynamite Boost
Sought-after software provider’s latest SwinttSelect slot introduces an innovative new Booster Reels mechanic that lights the fuse on a selection of explosive bonus features
Having already put together a portfolio of SwinttSelect slots that’s visited all four corners of the globe, this month hot-shot software provider, Swintt, is mining deep beneath the earth’s surface in Dynamite Boost – an exciting, gold mine-themed game that’s packed with explosive features.
Played out in front of a backdrop of glittering caves and gold-laden carts, the new subterranean slot features all manner of mining-themed paraphernalia across its five reels. Unique symbols to feature in the game include pickaxes, hats, detonators, and bundles of dynamite, with the last of these icons acting as a substitute wild that can complete winning payout combinations across all 243 ways to win.
What makes the game unique, however, is the addition of an innovative new Booster Reels mechanic that can award random bonuses in both the base game and free spins feature. Sitting above the slot’s regular gameboard, the Booster Reel can add a number of exciting modifiers to the current spin, with these able to affect a single symbol, an individual column or, indeed, all five reels at once for big wins.
Modifiers offered by the Booster Reel include adding a selected regular symbol to a number of random reel spaces, introducing an expanding wild to the space below the booster icon, creating a giant 2×2 wild symbol in the centre of the reels and adding a random multiplier of 1-5x to the total amount won.
Additionally, the Booster Reel can also award both single reel and full table respins that apply all of the currently active boosters to the next 1-5 rounds, with these enabling players to get the maximum benefit out of their accumulated multipliers and wilds as they dig their way to maximum wins of up to 2,500x.
As they spin, players will also notice a selection of scatter symbols displaying numerical values between 3 and 20. Should three or more of these land at once, the numbers will be totalled together and that many free spins will be awarded – with Dynamite Boost bonuses also available throughout the feature.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “Moving into 2024, one of our biggest priorities was to expand the range of quality content that’s available to both operators and players via the SwinttSelect range – and in our new Dynamite Boost slot, we’ve certainly got off to an explosive start!”
“Featuring an innovative new game mechanic that adds all manner of in-reel bonuses to current round or – if they’re especially lucky – the next 1-5 subsequent respins, Dynamite Boost offers players the chance to strike gold multiple times on every spin. Couple that with the slot’s 243 ways to win and easy-to-trigger free spins feature and we’re sure it’s going to be a big hit when it launches this month.”

Samurai Studio shoots for the stars in Babel Builder Accumulator
Innovative indie developer invites players to stack up towering wins in an all-new cyber punk-themed slot released via the SwinttStudios partnership programme
Get ready to hit the neon streets of a space age city in Babel Builder Accumulator – the new cyber punk-themed slot from up-and-coming software provider, Samurai Studio, where scaling towering megastructures can lead to colossal wins of up to 8,082x the bet.
The third Samurai Studio game to be released via the pioneering SwinttStudios programme, Babel Builder Accumulator is a five-reel, 20-payline slot set in a gritty, urban landscape. Featuring a pulse-racing, techno-inspired soundtrack and high-tech cast of androids and augmented humans as its symbols, the game really does an outstanding job of conveying a dystopian future.
Of course, this rampant advancement of technology is not without its perks – and Babel Builder Accumulator boasts a couple of standout features to help players stay ahead of the game. First of all, on any given spin Mirror Reels can trigger to turn two or more columns into identical copies of each other, significantly boosting the odds of landing multiple matching payout combinations.
Secondly, landing three or more scatter symbols in any position will activate the Accumulator Bonus. Whenever this happens, players will be granted three free re-spins with an initial in-game multiplier of 1x, 3x or 5x depending on the number of triggering scatters. With the reels now only displaying prize symbols worth between 1x and 50x the selected bet, whenever players land a prize, not only will the re-spin counter reset, but they’ll also fill one section of the progress metre.
Once six sections have been completed, a random multiplier of 1x, 3x or 5x will be added to the accumulator total – which can reach a maximum of 30x – with this process repeating until no new prizes arrive and the re-spin counter hits zero. In this manner, the feature can be prolonged indefinitely for truly epic wins, and players can also enter the bonus directly for an additional bet.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “We’ve already been treated to some incredible releases from Samurai Studio – and Babel Builder Accumulator might be the best yet!
“Featuring an eye-catching cyber punk aesthetic, atmospheric soundtrack and an incomparable Accumulator Bonus where players can scale their way to maximum wins of 8,082x their bet, the game really does have all the makings of a modern slot and we’re delighted to be able to use our existing network of casino partners to help Samurai Studio reach new audiences worldwide.”
