Vegangster’s Scroll & Play Adds Queue to Streamline Game Discovery
Platform provider Vegangster has introduced a new queue mechanic to its Scroll & Play video feed, giving players a faster and more flexible way to discover and launch games.
Scroll & Play already offers a continuous feed of short, autoplaying previews that help players explore new titles quickly. With the new queue feature, players can add several games from the feed to a personal list, open them in advance, and move between them without waiting for each title to load again.
The queue removes the final layer of friction between discovery and gameplay. Players can build a shortlist as they scroll, load the games they want to try, and switch between them instantly. Imagine making a spin in one game, swiping, and making a spin in another without loading times. The result is a smoother path from curiosity to action, especially for mobile users who prefer quick, uninterrupted interactions.
Early operator tests show that players tend to queue newly discovered titles more often than familiar ones, indicating that the mechanic supports broader catalogue exploration and helps surface games that are usually overlooked.
Michael Oziransky, Chief Product Officer at Vegangster, said:
“Scroll & Play works because it matches how people already consume content. The queue removes the last bit of friction, letting players build a shortlist as they scroll and jump straight into play. Early feedback from operators shows it’s particularly effective at surfacing catalogue depth.”
The queue update is part of Vegangster’s ongoing work on social-style UX patterns inside its casino stack, following recent enhancements to Stories, in-feed promotions, and dynamic video placements.
Operators can try the new queue mechanic at ICE Barcelona, Fira Barcelona Gran Via, 19–21 January 2026, with live Scroll and Play demos available at stand 1E20.
