game launches
Greentube adds Piggy Prizes Railroad Rumble to its slot franchise
Greentube, NOVOMATIC’s Interactive division, has launched Piggy Prizes
Railroad Rumble
, the latest entry in its Piggy Prizes
slot series.
Piggy Prizes
Railroad Rumble
runs on a 5×3 grid and centres on coin and piggy pot symbols that can be collected and enhanced when the cowboy lands on the centre reel. Greentube said the cowboy acts as a wild and can trigger coin drops that feed piggy pots, which can award Free Games.
The release adds a Gold Train feature that can add and boost coin values and contribute to filling the piggy pots. Greentube said reaching the pots’ limit can trigger Super Free Games, while Free Games keep the cowboy locked on the centre reel and Super Free Games keep the Gold Train sticky on the centre reel.
The game also includes Magic Spin and Magic Rewind modifiers. Greentube said Magic Spins can randomly lock the cowboy or Gold Train on the centre reel, while Magic Rewind gives players another chance to land symbols or jackpots. A Bonus Buy option is available in the base game, which triggers the bonus round once activated.
Richard Ganster, Director of Games Strategy and Games Portfolio Management at Greentube, said: “Piggy Prizes
has become one of our standout series because of its ability to evolve while staying true to the core mechanics players enjoy. With Piggy Prizes
Railroad Rumble
, we’ve introduced a more dynamic setup and layered feature set that enhances both engagement and replayability.
“The combination of familiar mechanics with new modifiers allows us to keep the experience fresh for existing fans while also attracting new players to the franchise.”

Strive Gaming selected to support Resorts World Bet’s New Jersey iCasino launch
Strive Gaming has partnered with Genting’s Resorts World brand to support Resorts World Bet’s planned launch in New Jersey’s online casino market, subject to approval by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement.
Under the agreement, Strive will provide player account management services, including payments, risk management, and fraud detection.
Strive will also support development of the Resorts World New Jersey front end, including use of Strive’s mobile app, and will integrate the operator onto Strive’s “infinity engine” engagement and automation tools.
Max Meltzer, CEO from Strive Gaming said: “I am delighted to add a well-established and high-profile online casino operator such as Genting’s Resorts World to our growing list of partners in North America. Their decision to partner with us for their online launch in New Jersey is testament to the standard of our first-class platform.
“We are certain Resorts World will prove to be very popular with online players in New Jersey, just as it has with land-based players around the world, and that will in-part be driven by our market-leading platform and player account management services.”
Robert DeSalvio, President of Genting Americas East, said: “We are very aware of the success Strive Gaming has seen across North American markets so far, and this makes them the ideal partner for our player account management services.
“We’ve been really impressed by not just their technology but their team depth as well. They understood our needs and they are perfectly positioned to play a key role in our online casino launch in New Jersey. We look forward to working with them for a long time.”
