Reading Time: 2 minutes
Tornado Feature and dynamic Thunder Bonus Feature enrich both Main Game and Bonus play
Playson, the accomplished digital entertainment supplier, has unleashed a whirlwind of excitement with Tornado Power: Hold and Win, introducing a new Tornado Feature and enhanced payouts.
The 3×4, 10 payline slot features immersive visuals with old-school charm, as the untamed gameplay is further enhanced by a new Tornado Feature, which can be randomly triggered whenever a Thunder Bonus Symbol lands during the Main Game or Bonus Game.
Once active, multipliers of up to an impressive 20x may activate as well as Bonus Symbols to increase the likelihood of triggering the Thunder Bonus Feature or Hold and Win Bonus Game.
When both a Bonus Symbol and Thunder Bonus Symbol lands on the reels, the Thunder Bonus Feature comes into action. The feature collects the values of all Bonus Symbols in play, including four in-game Jackpot Symbols, before adding them to the winnings for the spin in the Main Game or Total Win in the Bonus Game.
Landing at least one Bonus Symbol on each reel grants access to the Hold and Win Bonus Game, where players benefit from only Bonus and Thunder Bonus symbols for the entirety of the round. In a striking twist to bonus play, up to four Thunder Bonus Collect symbols can land on the centre reel, further amplifying the win potential on offer.
Additional entry to the Bonus Game is also boosted by the Pile of Gold Feature. Any Bonus Symbols that land on the reels during the main game can randomly trigger the feature, which sees Bonus and Thunder Bonus Symbols added to the grid in quantity enough to activate the Bonus Game.
This latest release demonstrates Playson’s ability for developing unique mechanics that enhance player engagement based on data-driven insights.
Anton Ivannikov, CPO at Playson, said: “Tornado Power: Hold and Win showcases our commitment to elevating the Hold and Win experience with engagement-boosting mechanics that genuinely move the needle. The new Tornado Feature introduces a fresh layer of dynamism to gameplay, giving players more ways to interact with bonus elements and enjoy heightened win potential.
“It’s a strong reflection of our data-led approach to development, and we’re confident it will resonate across a variety of markets.”

Playson adds scatter pays and dual bonuses in Sugar Piggy: Hold and Win
New 6×5 slot combines coin-merging wins with two Hold and Win bonus modes and a 10,000x maximum win, according to the supplier.
Playson has released Sugar Piggy: Hold and Win, a new online slot combining a scatter pays mechanic with two Hold and Win-style bonus games. The supplier said the title features a 6×5 reel layout and a maximum win of 10,000x.
In the main game, eight or more matching coloured Coin Symbols merge and disappear, creating space for new symbols to drop into the grid for potential additional wins. Playson said landing eight or more Coin Symbols also triggers a Hold and Win Bonus Game, which includes Multipliers of up to 10x.
A second mode, the Super Bonus Game, triggers when six or more coins land and introduces multicoloured Super Coins. Playson said these unlock Multipliers of up to 50x, and that winning symbol combinations in the Super Bonus Game also collapse to allow new symbols to fill their positions.
The release also includes a Sugar Piggy Feature that adds Coins and Super Coins at random during the main game, plus four jackpot tiers, with the Grand Jackpot paying up to x1,000 if all cells are filled. Playson said players can use an Extra Bet Feature to increase the chance of triggering bonus modes, while a Buy Bonus option provides direct access to either bonus.
Anton Ivannikov, CPO at Playson, said: “Sugar Piggy: Hold and Win builds on a fun, arcade-style vibe by adding powerful Multipliers and huge rewards. By offering the popular dual bonuses, wins feel more dynamic, creating an energetic experience that keeps players engaged.
“This universal piggy bank character adds a real sense of fun and nostalgia for players, with its balance growing as more coins are inserted.”

3 Supercharged Diamonds: Hold and Win
Playson releases 3 Supercharged Diamonds: Hold and Win slot
New title adds three Diamond bonus features, a Collect Diamond mechanic and four jackpots up to 1,000x.
Playson has released a new slot title, 3 Supercharged Diamonds: Hold and Win, expanding its Hold and Win catalogue with three Diamond-driven bonus features and four jackpot prizes up to 1,000x.
The game’s Hold and Win Bonus Game uses a “3 Pots” mechanic, triggered when green, yellow or violet Diamond symbols land alongside their respective Diamonds positioned above the reels. Depending on the Diamonds that land, the bonus can activate an Expand Feature (3×5 grid), Multi Feature (multipliers on reels one and three starting at 2x and increasing up to 32x), or Stepper Feature (Bonus Diamonds remain in play and move down one position after each respin).
A Collect Diamond can land only on reel two during the Bonus Game. Playson said it holds its position for the round and accumulates the value of Bonus Diamonds that land before being applied to the Total Win at the end of the feature.
Jackpots can also land during the bonus round: Mini (15x), Minor (30x), Major (100x) and Grand (1,000x). Outside the bonus, any Diamond symbol in the Main Game can randomly trigger an Extra Diamonds Feature, which Playson said can add enough Diamonds to start the Bonus Game.
Anton Ivannikov, CPO at Playson, said: “3 Supercharged Diamonds: Hold and Win takes one of our most recognisable game mechanics and elevates it with a collection of dynamic new features designed to maximise excitement during every bonus round.
“By combining the Expand, Multi and Stepper features with the Collect Diamond and four jackpot opportunities, we have created a release that delivers strong entertainment value and varied gameplay experiences for players worldwide.”

Shimmering Multipliers Elevate the Classic Fun in Playson’s Timeless Diamonds: Hold and Win
Retro 3×3 grid sparks nostalgia through a variety of data-driven mechanics.
Playson, the renowned digital entertainment provider, has infused excitement into the reels of Timeless Diamonds: Hold and Win, where dazzling multipliers, four in-game jackpots reaching 1,000x, and an enhanced Collect feature elevate the traditional slot experience.
Vegas allure captivates the reels with fruit icons embellishing the 3×3 grid, as abundant diamonds introduce a variety of captivating twists, enhancing the win potential in both the Main and Bonus Games.
To unlock the Hold and Win Bonus Game, it’s essential to land a Bonus symbol on each reel, featuring only Bonus symbols like Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand jackpots, as well as Collects and Multipliers.
Any Multiplier that lands on a position leaves a 2x value, while additional Multipliers on the same cell rise by 1x with each occurrence. When a Bonus symbol appears in a cell featuring a Multiplier, the payout for the Bonus symbol is enhanced by that Multiplier, and all Multipliers that appear stay on the cells until the feature concludes.
Honoring the nostalgic essence of the release, the classic Collect feature makes a comeback, activated when the Collect symbol appears next to any Bonus symbol. Enhancing base gameplay, when the Collect symbol appears without any Bonus symbols, random symbols might be inserted onto the reels to activate the feature. Similarly, if one or multiple Bonus symbols appear without a Collect icon, Collect symbols can be included to activate the feature.
The Extra Bonus Game provides an additional route to Bonus play when any Bonus or Collect symbols land on the reels during the Main Game. This adds Bonus and Collect symbols in quantity enough to launch the Bonus Game.
Timeless Diamonds: Hold and Win underlines Playson’s ability to reimagine the classic slot experience with meticulous enhancements to its top-performing mechanics, capturing the imagination of slot enthusiasts globally.
Anton Ivannikov, CPO at Playson, said: “Timeless Diamonds: Hold and Win blends classic slot nostalgia with carefully refined, data-driven mechanics to deliver a truly engaging experience. By pairing a retro 3×3 fruit layout with shimmering Multipliers, four jackpot tiers and an enhanced Collect feature, we have created a title that combines simplicity and excitement.
“With added depth in the Hold and Win Bonus and further opportunities through the Extra Bonus Game, this release showcases our focus on evolving proven mechanics to maximise player engagement and operator appeal.”
