Microgaming has revealed details of its latest drop of action-packed exclusive new games designed to excite and entertain players.

Throughout January, Microgaming will launch an array of exclusive new titles developed by its roster of independent studios and game development partners.

The new year begins with a trip to ancient Egypt in Book of Atem, developed exclusively by All41 Studios. Players can unlock the mysteries of the pharaohs in this five-reel, 10-payline slot featuring free spins with expanding symbols. The magical book symbol acts as both a wild and scatter in this dynamic game offering excellent win potential up to 5,000x the initial bet. With classic Egyptian music and graphics, Book of Atem revealed its ancient secrets on 7 January.

East Asian riches await in Double Lucky Line by Just For The Win, featuring vivid visuals and a feast of features. Set to launch exclusively to Microgaming operators on 14 January, this five-reel, 17-payline slot is home to several double symbols, including pairs of dragons, frogs and turtles. The ever-present Double Lucky Line feature ensures that only double symbols land on the centre reel, thereby optimising win potential during normal gameplay. Rounding out the game’s features are Random Wilds and free spins, with Lucky Wilds awarding further free spins and unlocking extra double symbol positions throughout the reel set.

Triple Edge Studios take players on a safari in African Quest, a five-by-four reel, 1,024 ways online slot including Hyperspins™, Microgaming’s strategic paid respin mechanic, which previously featured in Break da Bank Again Respin. Players join the search for Kubwa, the high-paying stacked lion symbol ready to roar out majestic rewards. Gathering three or more scatter symbols awards free spins in which players have the chance to select their desired free spin and multiplier option. During free spins, the wild symbol awards a multiplier, which can potentially result in up to a 64x multiplier if more than one multiplier lands. Embark on this African adventure on 21 January and set your sights on magnificent rewards.

Microgaming’s fourth exclusive release in January is The Incredible Balloon Machine™ by Crazy Tooth Studio. Taking flight on 28 January, this whimsical and innovative game features WiNCREASE™, multipliers up to 10x, and a rewarding Pick Bonus feature, in which players can inflate colourful balloons against a dreamy sky to reveal lofty rewards – provided they collect them before the balloons pop!

Providing access to an industry-leading portfolio of exclusive content and top-performing partner games, Microgaming is set to deliver dozens of exciting new titles in 2020.

“Microgaming’s January titles are representative of the variety and quality that will be rolled out throughout 2020. The mechanics of these feature-rich exclusive games combine with innovative new designs to create a thrilling gameplay experience for all players. The year ahead is shaping up to be very exciting as we add new games to Microgaming’s progressive jackpot network, take on new adventures with some of our favourite characters, and continuously debut exclusive games with new and dynamic themes.” – James Buchanan, Director of Global Operations at Microgaming.

Dr. Helmut Becker, CEO of ZEAL Network, has informed the Supervisory Board of the company of his decision not to extend his contract, which runs until January 31, 2026. The 56-year-old has decided to pursue his own entrepreneurial activities in the future after many years as a top manager. Dr Becker will then leave the company after more than twelve years on the Executive Board of ZEAL Network SE, including more than ten as CEO. He will remain fully committed to ZEAL as CEO until the end of his contract term and will ensure a smooth transition of his duties to a successor.

“ZEAL is in an excellent position to continue to grow in the future. After almost ten years as CEO, I have decided that now is the right time to pursue my own entrepreneurial endeavours. This has been a difficult decision for me. I will especially miss our exceptionally strong team and the unique culture we have built together, characterised by innovation, customer focus and team spirit. I will continue to work hard until the end of my term to achieve the goals we have set together,” said Dr Becker.

Dr Becker informed the Supervisory Board of ZEAL Network SE about his decision at an early stage, and the Supervisory Board will immediately initiate a structured process for the succession of the CEO.

Peter Steiner, Chairman of the Supervisory Board, said: “The Supervisory Board of ZEAL Network SE has noted with great regret Helmut Becker’s decision not to seek a contract extension.

On behalf of the Supervisory Board, I would like to thank him for his outstanding commitment and strategic vision. We wish him all the best for his personal life and professional career.”

Dr Becker has been CEO of ZEAL Network since September 1, 2015, after serving as Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) for over two years. Prior to joining the Executive Board, he was a member of the Supervisory Board of ZEAL for two years. Previously, he served as Chief Commercial Officer on the Management Board of XING AG and held various management positions at eBay Germany and as a management consultant at McKinsey. As CEO, Dr Becker was responsible for the acquisition of LOTTO24 AG, the return of ZEAL to Germany and the expansion of the portfolio to include freiheit+, Games and Traumhausverlosung.

• Gamblorium score: The Gamblorium Score evaluates casinos based on over 100 criteria, including payment methods, game options, security and user experience. Unlike other platforms, Gamblorium uses a relative and flexible approach, meaning casinos are ranked based on their strengths within their market. This score also incorporates Expert Scoring, ensuring that the most important factors are weighted appropriately.

• Player score: The Player Score is based on feedback from real users. Players can leave reviews only if they have registered or played at the casino, ensuring honest and up-to-date feedback. This makes the reviews highly reliable and reflective of the actual player experience.

• Market score: The Market Score helps balance the overall rating by considering the views of other trusted gambling platforms. This adds another layer of objectivity and ensures that Gamblorium’s reviews remain fair and unbiased.
