Gaming Realms has signed a commercial deal with 4ThePlayer.com, a mobile-first gambling games developer.

The deal will see 4ThePlayer games integrated onto Gaming Realms’ platform for distribution in the US. This is the first deal of its kind for the London-listed company.

In a statement, Gaming Realms said 4ThePlayer has a growing portfolio of games that align closely with its own Slingo portfolio and by the end of November it expects to have integrated the first game into the platform, followed by four or five further games in 2022.

“We are very excited to be adding a new revenue line to our business by building a selection of 4ThePlayer.com’s games into our platform,” Michael Buckley, executive chair of Gaming Realms, said.

“Their portfolio of games complements Gaming Realms’ own Slingo content, and their decision to partner with us highlights the strength of our distribution network in the US.”

4ThePlayer was founded in 2018 by Andrew Porter and Chris Ash, a Gaming Realms director. Chris Ash will now retire as a director of Gaming Realms due to the potential for conflicts of interests arising from the new partnership.

“Chris joined the board back in 2019 and has provided valuable guidance and strategic advice to the executive management, which has helped to scale our licensing business,” Buckley said.

“Given Chris is a significant shareholder of 4ThePlayer, it is right that he steps down from the Board of Gaming Realms in line with our good corporate governance practice.

“On behalf of the company, I would like to thank Chris for the important contribution he has made to our success.”

4ThePlayer, the specialized slot studio recognized for its player-centric philosophy, has reached a deal with Entain, one of the globe’s biggest sports betting and gaming organizations, to roll out several games within Entain’s UK retail network, beginning with two of 4ThePlayer’s top titles in the UK: 4 Fantastic Fish and 3 Lucky Leprechauns.

The launch signifies another key milestone in 4ThePlayer’s retail path, bringing successful online titles to physical stores and enabling high-street gamers to engage with the studio’s games. Both games have gained a loyal online audience due to their captivating gameplay, straightforward math, and emphasis on alleviating typical player annoyances.

4 Fantastic Fish is one of 4ThePlayer’s premier games and the cornerstone of its most prosperous series so far, centered on the studio’s distinctive Money Ways

feature. 3 Lucky Leprechauns has also emerged as a favorite among players, providing regular features and a vibrant, approachable experience that easily adapts to retail gaming.

Chris Ash, Founder and Managing Director at 4ThePlayer, said: “Partnering with Entain to bring multiple 4ThePlayer titles into their UK retail estate is a key part of our retail strategy. 4 Fantastic Fish and 3 Lucky Leprechauns have both performed strongly online, particularly in the UK, making them a natural starting point for this exciting new project.”

Matt Stadius, Director of Retail Gaming at Entain, added: “4ThePlayer has built a strong reputation for creating engaging, player-focused content, and we’re pleased to be bringing titles such as 4 Fantastic Fish and 3 Lucky Leprechauns into our UK retail estate. Both games have already proven their appeal online, making them a good fit for our shop customers.”

The retail launch has been executed in partnership with Reflex Gaming, a top omni-channel provider of gambling games and machines in the UK, guaranteeing that the titles are tailored for Entain’s store setting and retail customer base.

The agreement with Entain aims to grow gradually, with more 4ThePlayer titles scheduled to come, providing a consistent flow of known, player-approved content for Entain’s retail clientele.

This partnership strengthens 4ThePlayer’s dedication to developing games that function across various platforms, while upholding its boutique approach of prioritizing quality over quantity and a continuous emphasis on player enjoyment.

Reflex Gaming, the UK’s largest independently owned omni-channel supplier, is delighted to announce the launch of 3 Lucky Leprechauns, the latest game to make the leap from online success into British pubs, clubs and arcades. The vibrant, trail-based slot, created by 4ThePlayer, continues the strong partnership between the two companies, following the hugely successful retail adaptations of 3 Lucky Witches, 4 Fantastic Fish and 9K Yeti.

Building on the charm of the online original, 3 Lucky Leprechauns brings its signature Irish whimsy to life on Reflex’s cabinets. The development team worked hard to recreate the Leprechaun Trail on the upper screen, capturing its dynamic movement and colourful feature reveals while ensuring it feels perfectly at home on retail hardware. As with every retail adaptation, navigating Category C and B4 regulations required thoughtful tuning, the team introduced more engaging step-up moments on the trail and ensured that repeat-chance wins on top-tier outcomes add that extra burst of excitement players expect from our games.

3 Lucky Leprechauns features a 243-win ways base game across a 5×3 reel layout, where players begin by choosing one of three leprechauns to act as their Wild. Landing 3 or more Scatters launches players up the Leprechaun Trail Feature, where Cash prizes, Win Spins, Picks and big-money Repeaters await. Four Scatters catapult players straight to level 5, while five Scatters boost them to level 8, giving a real sense of momentum from the very first trigger.

The feature continues to climb with each arrow landed, stopping only when the outcome locks onto a prize. On Win Spins or Picks levels, players can choose between collecting the average value or taking on the feature for even bigger potential. Win Spins guarantee a win on every spin with all prizes boosted by a 3× multiplier, while the Pick-A-Prize feature lets players open chests to reveal cash awards.

At the very top of the trail lies the ultimate prize: the Jackpot, which comes with a Repeat Chance on £1 stake.

Mat Ingram, Chief Product Officer at Reflex Gaming, said: “This was an incredibly enjoyable game to bring into the retail space. The Leprechaun Trail gave us a fantastic canvas to work with, and translating its energy onto the upper screen has created something really special. The mix of trail anticipation, character choice and feature variety makes this one of the most entertaining adaptations we’ve delivered. We’re confident players will love it.”

Henry McLean, Co-founder & Commercial and Marketing Director at 4ThePlayer, added:
“We’re thrilled to be partnering with Reflex Gaming once again. They’ve already done a superb job bringing our games to British pubs, clubs and arcades and 3 Lucky Leprechauns continues that momentum in style. The team at Reflex has captured the spirit of the original perfectly, players are going to have a fantastic, fun time with this one!”
