Play’n GO’s loveable robots are back, and they’re fully charged for a new and exciting cascading grid slot in Sparky & Shortz Hidden Joules.

As the sequel to their popular Sparky & Shortz title, Play’n GO offers a brand-new thrilling adventure with these quirky robots as they seek to save another planet. Players will help these capable droids to create winning combinations across the grid, as they save endangered species and collect as many valuable resources as possible.

When creating these winning combinations during the base game, the 7×7 grid will continue to cascade as each combination disappears from the grid. This will continually fill up the Boost Meter on the side of the reels which will increase the value of the Win Multiplier. This increases the potential for some great wins for players.

Alongside the Boost Meter and Win Multiplier features, players will also be able to unlock four different Feature Wilds. These are earned when a Wild symbol helps to create a winning combination. These Feature Wilds include Mega symbols being added as well as random Wilds being added across the grid. If players gather four charges from collecting four Feature Wilds, then Sparky will activate and become Wild Sparky, a 2×2 Wild Symbol, and jump onto the grid himself.

Play’n GO puts a lot of focus on creating thrilling gameplay alongside engaging characters and designs. One way in which this is achieved is through investing in Play’n GO IPs by developing the lore and expanding upon popular titles. Focusing on what players enjoy and want more of is the best choice for everyone. IPs like Sparky & Shortz and the popular Book of Dead series are perfect examples of this.

Fans of Play’n GO’s Sparky & Shortz as well as their other stellar sci-fi slots will love jumping back into the world of Sparky & Shortz Hidden Joules for a brand-new, cosmic adventure. This new addition to the catalogue really is out of this world!

Head of Game Retention at Play’n GO, George Olekszy said:

“At Play’n GO, many of us are huge lovers of the sci-fi genre, and creating games set on distant planets or among the stars themselves is a real treat for our team. Knowing that many of our fans also share this love of the great beyond and enjoy delving into these games spurs us on to create some thrilling adventures.

“Sparky & Shortz Hidden Joules brings players back into the company of these charming robots and ramps up the voltage with some exciting Feature Wilds. As players watch the grid cascade and create winning combinations the thrills will keep on coming, making for an electrifying experience!”

New 5×5, 19-payline title adds Enhanced Free Spins and a 10,000x max win, with bets from 0.1 to 25.

ICONIC21 has launched Jack and the Wild Beanstalk, a new 5×5 slot built around an ascending Wild feature and multiplier progression. The game runs on 19 fixed paylines and adds an Enhanced Free Spins mode designed to increase Wild frequency.

At the core of the game is the “Magic Bean Wild,” which moves vertically up the reels with each spin. ICONIC21 says the Wild’s multiplier increases by its value at every step, and that when multiple beanstalks align their values combine.

The Free Spins mode extends the same mechanic. In the Enhanced version, ICONIC21 says the reels are “boosted with additional beanstalks,” increasing the chance of landing Wilds on subsequent spins.

Jack and the Wild Beanstalk offers a maximum win of 10,000x the stake, with a maximum exposure of 250,000. Bet sizes range from 0.1 to 25.

Edvardas Sadovskis, Chief Product Officer at ICONIC21, said: “Jack and the Wild Beanstalk is built around a simple but powerful idea – visible progression that keeps players engaged.

“The growing Wild mechanic creates genuine anticipation with every spin, and the Enhanced Free Spins mode amplifies this excitement by increasing the frequency of Wilds on the reels.

“It’s a game that builds momentum naturally, and that translates directly into longer sessions and stronger performance for operators. We’re thrilled to be adding another forward-thinking title to ICONIC21’s portfolio.”

The partnership also forms part of a broader collaboration, with potential to expand into additional North American markets.

Dima Reiderman, CCO at RubyPlay, said: “By launching with one of the most trusted names in gaming, we’re not only expanding our footprint in Ontario but also demonstrating the value of our multi-studio model.”

“Launching with Caesars in Ontario allows us to further scale our content offering within a highly competitive regulated market. Our approach is to deliver high-performing titles that align with each operator’s needs, combining the flexibility required for local markets with the consistency needed to scale, while ensuring efficient rollout and strong market relevance.”

Ricardo Cornejo Rivas, Vice President of Online Gaming at Caesars Digital, added: “We’re committed to partnering with brands that bring high-quality, differentiated content to our players.

“RubyPlay provides exactly that with its steady pipeline of tailored, high‑performance titles and we’re looking forward to introducing their games to our online casino customers in Ontario and enhancing our content offering in the province.”
