Veronique Dos Reis, Head of Legal & Compliance at Pinnacle, said: “Responsible gambling and player welfare are industry-wide issues, so we’re pleased to work with Gamban to offer our customers a blanket self-exclusion tool which covers all gambling sites, not just our own.

“It’s important that those at risk have access to the simplest tools in order to protect themselves effectively. Gamban delivers exactly that, and we’re very confident this free facility will be a significant addition to our responsible gaming arsenal.”

Pinnacle has invested significantly in its CSR division in recent years to provide a responsible gambling service that proactively deals with potentially harmful gambling behaviour on a case-by-case basis, with this latest partnership the next step in its mission to provide a safe haven for gamblers of all types.

Jack Symons, cofounder of Gamban, said: “Pinnacle’s displaying great commitment to its customers by offering this valuable support. This further highlights how layering self-exclusion with blocking software is becoming ever more important.

“In a world where the lure of immediate gratification through digital activity is increasingly tempting, we want to help people regain control and balance – and by using Gamban, they can do that.”

Set at the foothills of Mount Olympus, Majestic Zeus welcomes players to a Grecian world where the rewards are potentially as large as the mountains themselves. The 5×3 frame is nestled between two towering columns adorned with Grecian goddesses. A thunderous, powerful musical score evokes the might of Zeus and heightens the entertainment.

Players who find three Zeus symbols will launch the Free Spins game. Before entering Free Games, players must take a turn on the Wheel of Fortune to determine the free spins total, between 10 and 40, and the symbol will be doubled for the round.

Three blue lightning bolts will trigger the Bonus feature in Majestic Zeus. Three spins are granted to players instantly, and the mission is filling the metre by collecting Scattered winning symbols. Five Scattered symbols will complete one cell in the metre. Additional spins can be earned with the +1 symbol and once the spins end the final total is paid out calculated by the final filled metre cell.

Majestic Zeus also has Stacked Wilds available where once the reels are spinning, Wild symbols have the ability to appear on the reels to increase the chance of a win. During the base game, Only Double Symbols can come into play, making all symbols appear in their double form.

Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Majestic Zeus is sure to make a lot of noise amongst players thanks to its epic combination of myth, mechanics, and multiplier potential. The game looks and sounds superb — we’re expecting big results from it.”
