Innovative content studio FunFair Games has signed an agreement with 5th Planet Games, bringing forward the development of a multiplayer crash-styled title based on the popular TV show and video game character Hugo.

The partnership will give FunFair Games the IP rights to create a new fast-paced real-money crash game themed around the Scandinavian cartoon which is planned to launch worldwide later this year.

The lovable troll Hugo is a fictional character from Danish 5th Planet Games’ hit interactive live TV game show from the 1990s which was aired in more than 40 countries. Hugo also featured in several popular video games which had great commercial success and received global recognition.

One of the most popular and iconic games featured Hugo flying in a vintage red twin prop plane, swerving through clouds and storms with a goal to avoid a crash in order to fulfil the level, complete the mission and win the prize.

Recognising this part of Hugo’s heritage, FunFair Games will create a crash title showcasing the red plane, with players tasked to cash out their winnings before it crashes, with the multiplier increasing the longer they wait.

The game will encompass the same mechanics as FunFair Games’ hit debut title AstroBoomers: To the Moon!which remains the supplier’s top-performing title in its growing portfolio.

With the vision to develop a new genre of games for the next generation of gamblers, FunFair Games’ titles offer multiplayer and crash content that is social, active and simple, providing players with a truly entertaining and innovative experience.

Lloyd Purser, COO of FunFair Gamessaid: “Partnering with 5th Planet Games gives us an opportunity to create a unique and immersive crash-style game, incorporating the fantastic and established brand that Hugo is, boasting a wide fan-base around the globe.

“We’re currently in the process of developing the game together with 5th Planet Games and we can’t wait to introduce it to the market later this year.”

Mark Stanger, CEO of 5th Planet Games, said: “We are delighted to have this opportunity to partner with Funfair Games as they continue to develop the next generation of high quality, gambling and crypto-style games.

“We look forward to seeing our beloved Hugo brand attracting a whole new audience of fans and players.”

Meet Some Playful Piggies and Win Big in BGaming’s Piggy Bank Hold & Win

Published

on

meet-some-playful-piggies-and-win-big-in-bgaming’s-piggy-bank-hold-&-win

BGaming, a popular iGaming content provider, has unveiled its latest #Entertainment slot, Piggy Bank Hold & Win, inviting players to join a lively cast of colourful piggies in a playful new release.

The game puts a fresh spin on the well-known Hold and Win mechanic, unfolding across a compact 3×3 grid enhanced by vibrant, casual-style visuals and upbeat audio.

Players aim to activate the Hold and Win bonus by landing three symbols on the middle horizontal reel. Above the reels sit three piggy characters—Green, Pink, and Blue—each capable of triggering unique features during the bonus round. As the game progresses, the piggies collect coins that land on the grid, steadily building anticipation with every spin.

Each piggy introduces a distinct mechanic: the Green Piggy can reset remaining spins back to three, the Pink Piggy applies multipliers of up to x8 to total winnings, and the Blue Piggy expands the grid to 3×5, unlocking greater win potential.

Additional features include Mystery and Collect symbols, alongside five available jackpots, with the top Royal Jackpot offering a payout of up to 2,000x the bet.

A playful detail sees a pig snout appear at the side of the grid, giving players access to Buy Bonus options. This allows instant entry into a randomised bonus round or enhanced versions with extra features.

Alex Baliukonis, Game Producer at BGaming, said, “The Hold and Win gameplay mechanic is one of the most consistently popular with players right now, and with Piggy Bank Hold and Win, we have added plenty of personality to the format.

The game’s playful design perfectly matches the fast-paced features, showing that you can add something fresh to a well-known formula without overcomplicating it, and we look forward to seeing how players engage with Piggy Bank Hold & Win.”

Evoplay, the award-winning game developer, is marking the Easter season with the release of two vibrant new titles — Uncrossable Rush Eggster and 3 Bunny Pots Bonanza — combining high-energy gameplay with feature-rich mechanics.

Leading the seasonal rollout is Uncrossable Rush Eggster, the newest entry in the studio’s popular crash-style series. Players once again follow Eggwina the hen as she navigates a hectic 24-lane highway, choosing after each successful move whether to cash out or continue for bigger multipliers.

The game offers four difficulty levels, from Easy to Hardcore, alongside fully customisable autoplay settings. With unpredictable traffic patterns shaping every round, the experience delivers a dynamic risk-reward balance where no two sessions feel the same. Fast-paced gameplay and rising multipliers make it particularly appealing for players seeking quick, high-intensity sessions with a seasonal twist.

Joining the release is 3 Bunny Pots Bonanza, a slot set inside a treasure-filled bunny vault, where players spin for vibrant coins, glittering gems, and golden rewards.

At its core are Bonus Coin symbols that unlock a feature packed with multipliers, extra spins, and expanding reels through three distinct boosters. With multiple gameplay combinations and the potential to trigger the Grand Jackpot, the title offers a highly engaging experience with strong replay value and multiple paths to big wins.

Together, the two launches highlight Evoplay’s ability to blend seasonal themes with varied gameplay formats, catering to a wide spectrum of player preferences during one of the year’s most active content periods.

Ivan Kravchuk, CEO at Evoplay, said: “Easter is a great opportunity for us to explore more playful themes across different game formats.

“With Uncrossable Rush Eggster, we’ve added a seasonal twist to one of our most recognisable series, while 3 Bunny Pots Bonanza delivers a feature-rich slot packed with colour and rewarding mechanics. Together, they offer players two distinct but equally engaging ways to celebrate the season.”

Kendoo Accelerates with Jackpot-Driven Locomotoro

Exciting Loco Free Spins, engaging Toro Bonus, and the exhilarating VIP Express jackpot conclusion.

Kendoo, the rapidly expanding slot developer, has accelerated the launch of Locomotoro, an exciting 5×3 slot where thunderous engines and a fierce Toro drive each spin on a progression-focused adventure.

Designed to cater to every player, from casual to high-stakes, Locomotoro embodies Kendoo’s player-centric philosophy in game development. Centered on dynamic visuals, the game employs gratifying mechanics and a captivating rhythm that heightens excitement before presenting substantial wins in the VIP Express.

Central to the experience is the Toro Bonus, a Hold and Win feature that enlarges the grid from 5×3 to 5×6 when players reveal extra rows with Green Light symbols. Every Green Light unlocks a secured row and turns into a Bonus or Collect symbol, instantly enhancing the board’s worth.

When Bonus, Bonus Jackpot, and Collect symbols appear, respins are reset, and Collect symbols accumulate all active values and remain fixed, progressively leading to substantial payouts.

After all rows are freed, the following Green Light opens the Golden Gate, subsequently triggering the VIP Express at the conclusion of the feature.

In the VIP Express feature, a golden train comes in with cars loaded with rewards determined by the overall bet amount. Prizes consist of the Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand jackpots, with the Grand providing 1000x.

All VIP Express rewards are incorporated straight into the Toro Bonus amount. Moreover, gathering 30 symbols of any kind during the Toro Bonus triggers a Full Board Multiplier, which doubles the total payout of the feature.

Loco Spins introduce additional diversity, activated by three Scatter symbols to grant five Free Spins, with chances for retriggering during the round.

For players looking to access premium gameplay instantly, the Buy Feature option allows entry into the Toro Bonus for 75x the bet or the enhanced VIP Toro Bonus for 150x, with higher chances at triggering the VIP Express

Locomotoro is now available for demo and real play across all Kendoo partner platforms.

Kate Romanenko, Commercial Director at Kendoo, said: “Locomotoro is built around momentum and structured payoff. Players can feel the progression as they unlock rows, open the Golden Gate and ultimately trigger the VIP Express.

“It delivers a strong bonus climax combined with clear win progression, which makes the overall experience both satisfying and highly engaging.”
