WhichBingo, the UK’s number one, independent online bingo reviews and affiliate site, owned and operated by XLMedia, announced its 2020 WhichBingo Awards winners at an unprecedented pre-recorded video ceremony. The highly anticipated event featured UK television personality and chef Rustie Lee, actress and presenter Linda Lusardi, and actor and presenter Christopher Biggins as its co-hosts, while taking a virtual trip to destinations around the globe to announce the winners.

The WhichBingo Awards is one of the annual highlights for the UK online bingo industry and a collective celebration of the best brands in the gaming business. This year was particularly memorable as WhichBingo marked its 20th year of operation. With almost 200,000 votes cast across 18 categories and brand submissions for the judging panel categories, the WhichBingo Awards continue to grow in prominence and has sealed its place as a major event on the online bingo calendar.

Buzz Bingo led the event, capturing four of the bingo industry’s esteemed awards and claiming the coveted prize of the ‘Best Bingo Site’. Buzz Bingo remains a relatively new player to the online bingo space, winning the ‘Best New Bingo Site’ category only last year. Dream Bingo was awarded ‘Best Microgaming Bingo Site’ for the fourth consecutive year, while Wink Bingo picked up ‘Best Dragonfish Bingo Site’ for the fourth year running.

“I want to extend my congratulations to all of the deserving winners and nominees,” said Stuart Simms, CEO of XLMedia PLC Group. “The WhichBingo Awards looked very different this year as it was impossible for us all to come together and celebrate the many bingo accomplishments of the past year. Online bingo’s future looks very promising as we head into the second half of 2020. As the industry continues to welcome new players to the online space while simultaneously embracing the latest regulations, we are confident that online bingo will continue to flourish and rise in popularity.”

ICONIC21 releases Jack and the Wild Beanstalk slot with growing Wild multipliers

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.”

Latest launch on Caesars’ marquee online casino platforms marks a key milestone for studio ecosystem

RubyPlay, a studio-based content ecosystem, is further strengthening its presence in Ontario as part of its broader North American growth strategy with a new partnership with Caesars Entertainment.

The partnership will see a curated selection of RubyPlay’s fan-favourite titles, including JMania® Lucky Pyggs, Mad Hit® Mr Coin and Diamond Explosion® 7s SE, made available on Caesars Entertainment’s online casino platforms including Caesars Palace Online Casino, Caesars Sportsbook & Casino and Horseshoe Online Casino.

This partnership is also set to expand in the near future with the addition of content from Koala Games, one of RubyPlay’s most popular titles. The launch with Caesars represents a significant milestone for RubyPlay in Ontario, building on its momentum following its initial entry into the province early last year, where its portfolio of high-performance games has already gained traction with top-tier operators.

Partnering with Caesars Digital underscores RubyPlay’s growing influence and reputation within a key global territory, as well as the strength of its multi-studio platform, which is designed to bring tailored content to regulated markets worldwide. 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.”
