Tiago Vieira has been headhunted from TVSquared and will help the freeplay developer provide clients with insights into the games’ contributions to their acquisition and retention metrics

Incentive Games, the provider of premium Free-to-Play acquisition and retention games, has further expanded its data department with the appointment of Tiago Vieira as Head of Data. Tiago was headhunted from TVSquared where he combined the roles of senior Data Scientist and Technology Lead.

Attracting talented workers is getting harder by the day and convincing Tiago to join has not been any different. Once he saw the innovative products and the role data is playing in developing them, he was convinced Incentive Games is the right choice for him.

Data analysis has been the heart of Incentive Games’ success for many years, it is used to analyse player behaviour, feature performance and User Experience. The games generate a huge volume of data daily, and up till now, that has mainly been used to improve the game design and user experience. Moving forward Incentive Games is focused on generating reports and insights for their operator clients on how the games contribute to their acquisition cost and retention metrics.

Incentive Games has millions of monthly active users across its games which in turn generates billions of data points to be collected and analysed. These insights help clients better understand user behaviour, improve the effectiveness/stickiness of games and ultimately boost revenues.

“We’ve been aware of Tiago’s remarkable talents for a while now,” said John Gordon, CEO of Incentive Games, “and have taken our time to get this key hire in place. By the end of this year Incentive Games products will have over 100 million active monthly users and be generating many billions of data points, and we believe few companies in the industry have a deeper knowledge of customer behaviour in our space. Whilst those learnings have already been used to improve game design and user experience, we’re now focusing on specific customer insights and state-of-the-art, real-time reporting advances that, we believe, will revolutionise the industry’s acquisition and retention strategies.”

Tiago Vieira, Head of Data at Incentive Games, added: “In a very short space of time Incentive Games has established itself as the global leader in the field of free to play games, and I’m hugely excited and intrigued to join a remarkable team. Their products are now generating huge amounts of incredibly rich data that are being harnessed to develop a phenomenal roadmap of upcoming products. The challenge of helping elevate those games to the next level was one I couldn’t resist.”

This summer, WinSpirit celebrates its birthday with Alchemy of Passion, a large-scale promotional campaign designed to create deeper player engagement through gamification, storytelling, and immersive rewards.

Built around the concept of discovering the legendary Elixir of Passion, the campaign transforms traditional promotional mechanics into an interactive journey. Players are invited to collect ingredients, complete quests, unlock rewards, and explore new experiences — turning every spin and action into part of a larger adventure.

Throughout the campaign, players can access multiple engagement features, including the Gift Portal, Gift Shop, Mystery Elixirs, quests, tournaments, and exclusive bonuses created specifically for the celebration.

From a product perspective, Alchemy of Passion highlights WinSpirit’s approach to developing creative promotional solutions that help operators increase player interaction, strengthen loyalty, and deliver memorable brand experiences. By combining narrative-driven mechanics with rewarding gameplay elements, the campaign provides partners with a flexible engagement tool designed to support retention and long-term player relationships.

The campaign also reflects WinSpirit’s continued investment in innovation, exploring new ways to connect entertainment, technology, and player-focused experiences within the iGaming ecosystem.

This birthday celebration is WinSpirit’s way of thanking the community that continues to shape the brand. Instead of simply marking another milestone, the company is creating new opportunities for players to interact, discover rewards, and celebrate together.

While Alchemy of Passion is already live, another major experience is being prepared behind the scenes. Soon, players and partners will get their first look at Euphoria Lab — a brand-new concept designed to bring an entirely new level of engagement.

The celebration has begun. The formula continues to evolve, and the next chapter is about to unfold.

SpringbokCasino.co.za has launched a July promotion offering players 25 free spins on SpinLogic slot title Seahorse Surge, using coupon code MINIONS. The operator said the offer is valid throughout July on its South Africa-facing site.

The campaign is positioned around a “Minions in the Wild – Nature’s Greatest Helpers” theme, timed to coincide with the release window of a new Minions film. SpringbokCasino’s creative frames the promotion through five animal “archetypes” — meerkats, hyenas, dassies, warthogs and elephants — as analogies for different styles of play.

“Every ecosystem needs its helpers, and every winning session needs the right mix of patience, timing, and a little bit of glorious chaos,” said Daniel Van Wyke, Casino Manager at SpringbokCasino. “This July, we celebrate South Africa’s wildest ‘Minions’—and give our players 25 free spins to cause some fun trouble of their own.”

SpringbokCasino described Seahorse Surge as featuring “cascading wins and rising multipliers.”
