Provider injects lively Energy Coins theme with mischievous joker

Playson, the fast-growing digital entertainment supplier, has combined the striking themes of its most successful games in its latest title Energy Joker: Hold and Win.

With coins, electricity and a grinning joker, this fast-paced release has lightning running through its reels. The blue Collect feature strikes the cells and gathers all values, including the Mini, Minor and Major jackpots and Bonus symbols.

The game’s Wild symbol, the joker, substitutes for all symbols on the reels, except Bonus and Collect icons. In the Multiplier feature, he returns once more, using newfound powers to upgrade cells in the Bonus Game to higher value wins. This feature sees coin, jackpot and collect symbols enhanced by random multipliers of x2, x3, x4, x5 or x10 within a cell.

If a Multiplier symbol lands in a cell that already has a multiplier, the previous amount will increase by the corresponding one. They remain on the reels and apply to respective cells when the Bonus Game ends.

Four in-play jackpots appear during the Bonus Game and trigger the corresponding amounts. On Bonus symbols, the Mini equals x25, Minor x50 and Major x150, while all 15 Bonus symbols landing on the reels triggers a Grand jackpot of x5,000 bets.

Another iconic feature of Playson’s titles is the Pile of Gold. Any Bonus or Collect symbols landing on the reels during the main game grant the chance to trigger it, then add Bonus, Collect or Multiplier symbols in quantity enough or more to activate the Bonus Game.

This unforgettable release demonstrates Playson’s deep awareness of its players’ tastes and combines its most successful games into one epic title.

Blueprint Gaming is inviting players to live like royalty and reign over Phrygia in its latest scatter-pay release, the Greek mythology-themed Midas King of Gold.

Players attempt to turn every touch into gold in this 6×5 scatter pays title, with the King himself appearing in symbols on the game’s richly coloured board alongside royal pillars and ancient artifacts.

The game has a variety of symbols, with eight or more matching symbols paying a win, removing winning symbols which are replaced by new ones cascading into view for enhanced winning potential.

The Midas Touch feature is triggered when any spin lands on the finger symbol anywhere in view. Once activated the background transforms into gold, with the mini reel awarding a cash prize, free spins, or a multiplier, remaining persistent until triggered.

Landing six scatter symbols will trigger 15 King of Gold Spins, where any Midas Touch symbols in view will stay in place throughout the free spins, and multipliers will award at least 10x the bet, with scatter wins multiplied by up to 500x.

In certain regions, players can directly access Midas Spins and King of Gold Spins with the Bonus Buy feature, for the cost of either 100x or 350x the bet.

Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing & Relationships at Blueprint Gaming, said: “The release of Midas King of Gold demonstrates our ability to produce unique and creative titles, with this scatter pays slot appealing to our players with its colourful background and strong feature set.

“The mythology theme stands out in our library of games and the Midas Touch feature offers optimal winning potential for those looking to try and turn spins into gold.”
