On October 15th, EEGS hosted a dynamic webinar titled “Winning over Gen Z: How to Engage the Next Generation of Players”, featuring renowned speaker Ana D’Arrigo. This session marked the first webinar since the summer break and was highly anticipated.

The webinar was a practical, experience-based discussion, enriched with real-world examples from leading companies. Ana shared valuable insights drawn from her personal experience, offering attendees actionable strategies to connect with the elusive Gen Z audience.

The session commenced with a thorough exploration of “Who are Gen Z?” – the first digital natives, highly tech-savvy, and increasingly challenging to target through traditional marketing. Ana highlighted that Gen Z-ers are distinct: they prioritize authenticity, lead with purpose, express themselves creatively, value transparency, are entrepreneurial, and driven by their values. Despite having short attention spans, they engage deeply when content resonates with them.

A key takeaway from the webinar was the shift needed in marketing approaches: “To win Gen Z, stop marketing to them – start creating with them,” a powerful insight echoed by ChatGPT and emphasized by Ana. Instead of mass marketing, personalized, authentic content that involves Gen Z in the creation process is essential.

Further, Ana discussed the future of marketing to Gen Z, emphasizing ongoing engagement and authenticity. She actively engaged with the audience, responding to intriguing questions and fostering a lively discussion.

SlotMatrix, the world’s largest casino content aggregator, has launched its latest exclusive title, Aphrodite’s Fortune, an enchanting slot that invites players into the goddess’s golden garden of love and wealth.
Set among the clouds of Mount Olympus, Aphrodite’s Fortune celebrates beauty, fortune, and celestial power in a stunning 10,000-ways-to-win format. With an RTP of 96% and medium volatility, the game offers smooth, high-energy gameplay, dazzling visuals, and a max win of 5,542x.
The centrepiece of the experience is the Coin Avalanche, where landing Fortuna on both reel one and reel six unleashes a cascade of golden coins. The avalanche continues until no new coins appear, filling rows and reels with divine rewards.
Completing an entire row wins the corresponding jackpot, and filling the screen unlocks the Grand Jackpot.
Players can also trigger Free Spins by landing four bonus symbols. During the spins, every coin is collected, while landing additional Coin or Thunder symbols increases the heat of the reels. Hot positions multiply coin values for even greater rewards, and collecting five Diamonds grants the coveted Grand Jackpot.
The game also features the Coin Collect mechanic, where Fortuna landing on reel one or six gathers all visible coins, ensuring no spin ever feels wasted.
Available exclusively via SlotMatrix, the title is enhanced by EveryMatrix’s proprietary gamification tools, including free spins and leaderboards, and can be seamlessly integrated with EngageSuite, the all-in-one player loyalty solution.
Stephen Orchard, Head of Commercial Operations, SlotMatrix, said: “Aphrodite’s Fortune delivers a mix of elegance and excitement. The symbols, scenery, and music take the players to ancient Greece, and the Coin Avalanche mechanic brings something truly special to the reels.”
