Emerging-markets leader expands its offering with a fresh portfolio from the ascendant Scandinavian studio

QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for emerging markets, has maintained the strong momentum in its deal-flow, thanks to its latest integration with Popiplay, an emerging force in high-level slots entertainment.

Integrating content from one of the more innovative and creative online slots providers adds yet more muscle to QTech Games’ burgeoning platform, which is taking the widest range of online games to emerging territories with established names, sitting alongside the industry’s most exciting up-and-coming providers.

Popiplay slot designs are recognised for a more modern approach – being streamer-focused, crypto-ready and high roller-friendly – while also showcasing special features (like Bonus Buy, and Chance 2x and 3x options) that elevate the player experience and deepen engagement. These features are in evidence across an array of popular titles, including new releases such as Fruit Empire and Jellyens X, which eloquently demonstrate Popiplay’s eclectic range of hit slots.

The agreement organically broadens Popiplay’s global scope, targeting emerging markets and creating new revenue streams. As the fastest-growing aggregator over the past few years, QTech’s platform offers the most expansive gaming portfolio around, localised for each region, retention and marketing tools, and 24/7 local-language support.

Philip Doftvik, QTech Games’ CEO, said: “We’re excited to add Popiplay to our growing ranks. They are now coupling modern player demands to their existing cutting-edge mechanics, offering global operators varied content with which to captivate and retain the end user. And by combining unique maths modelling, which spans the volatility spectrum, with twists on conventional narratives, these games will foster some truly engaging gameplay for fresh cohorts of QTech players. Indeed, it’s been rewarding to see how Popiplay invariably seek to redefine the existing ecosystem and reimagine more traditional gaming experiences with each play. We look forward to watching how these games perform in regions which, in many cases, break new ground for Popiplay.”

Almir Kudic, CCO of Popiplay, added: “Through this partnership, Popiplay’s portfolio of dynamic slot games has been seamlessly integrated into QTech’s dominant aggregation platform for emerging markets, opening up a new network of partners and players worldwide for us. We can’t wait to see what the reception is. Through our combined commitment to collaboration and innovation, we can continue to work together to tailor the content for truly localised games that drive enhanced engagement and interest across a diverse and ever-changing slots landscape.

“At Popiplay, we firmly believe that our trademark creativity drives innovation. So, we’re committed to raising the bar in the igaming sector and pushing the boundaries of how these games look and feel. And this partnership with QTech constitutes a great opportunity to extend our product distribution across new territories and deliver our games to a range of top-tier partners.”

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has launched Buffalo Rampage – Hold & Hit 3×3, a 3×3 reel, 5 lines video slot.

Buffalo Rampage – Hold & Hit 3×3 unfolds across a sun-scorched desert at dusk, framed by towering cacti and brought to life with a slow-paced and Western-inspired soundtrack that immerses players in the action.

Three gold sheriff-style stars act as the Wild symbol and substitutes for all symbols except Bonus symbols. There are two Special Bonus symbols, the Bonus only lands on reels one and three, while the Bonus Collect lands only on reel two. When players hit on the Bonus Collect with one or more Bonus symbols, including Jackpot symbols, in a combination that does not trigger the Bonus Game, it collects their values and instantly adds them to the total win of the spin directly to the player’s balance.

In the base game, the Bonus Blast feature can trigger when at least one Bonus Symbol lands on the reels but not enough to trigger the Bonus Game. Additional Bonus Symbols with Bonus Collect Symbols can spread on the reels, ensuring enough symbols appear to activate the Bonus Game.

Players will enter the Bonus Hold & Hit 3×3 game by landing a Bonus Collect Symbol on reel two, along with Bonus Symbols on reels one and three. The symbols that launch the bonus will stay in place and during the feature only Bonus Symbols and Bonus Collect Symbols can land.

Empty spots are completed with prizes ranging from x1, x2, x5, x7, x10, to x15. Each time a Bonus symbol lands, it is collected by all Bonus Collect symbols and added to the Bonus Collect symbol’s total.

Landing any Bonus symbol or Bonus Collect symbol resets the remaining spins back to three. The feature finishes when no Bonus symbol lands from the three spins, or when the total collected winnings reach the maximum x5000 multiplier.

Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Buffalo Rampage – Hold & Hit 3×3 offers a fun new take on our hugely successful Buffalo Rampage series. This latest addition features multiple bonus rounds that ensure the excitement never lets up and delivers a fresh twist on a Spinomenal classic.”
