Evoplay
SlotCatalog and Evoplay Demonstrate How Data-Driven Design Creates More Engaging Slot Experiences
In 2025, SlotCatalog and Evoplay joined efforts to create Uncrossable Rush, using data and design side by side. Instead of relying on assumptions, the teams focused on how players actually interact with modern slot formats.
This collaboration links two roles that usually work separately. SlotCatalog is an online analytics platform that compiles and maintains structured data on slot games across the global market, while Evoplay focuses on producing casino content for operators in multiple regions. Working together allowed both sides to approach the project with a shared view of how players interact with familiar slot structures.
Why Data-Driven Design Matters in Today’s iGaming Market
The volume of new releases means players have little patience for complexity. When a slot communicates its rhythm early and keeps the action smooth, it becomes easier to understand and more comfortable to return to.
Saturated release cycles – New titles appear constantly, competing for lobby space.
Short attention spans – Players expect games to feel clear and responsive within seconds.
Volatility balance – Risk, pacing, and reward frequency must align with expectations.
Measurable engagement – Session length, replay rate, and feature use show what keeps players returning.
Uncrossable Rush follows this logic. It is an instant-format game inspired by CrossyRun mechanics, where players guide Eggwina across traffic lanes, collect multipliers, and decide when to cash out. Fast rounds, rising difficulty and repeatable patterns support quick, replayable sessions.
About the Collaboration
SlotCatalog operates as an analytics platform tracking slot mechanics, availability, and market activity across a large catalogue of games. Evoplay is an international studio producing slots and instant titles for online casino operators. The work on Uncrossable Rush marks SlotCatalog’s first co-development project and introduces external research directly into the design process.
From SlotCatalog’s analytical perspective, the goal was to build a game around proven engagement factors rather than novelty alone. Evoplay translated those insights into a fast, easy-to-read format designed for repeat play.
Uncrossable Rush key characteristics:
Format: Instant game
Core mechanic: CrossyRun-style lane crossing with multipliers and cash-out choice
Volatility: Adjustable risk as difficulty rises
RTP: ~96%
Target audience: Players who prefer short sessions and quick decisions
Mobile compatibility: Optimized for smartphones and tablets
Fedir Havlovskyi, CEO of SlotCatalog, noted: “At SlotCatalog, users come first. We look for partnerships that help create products people actually enjoy and understand. This collaboration reflects our focus on quality and our commitment to meeting player expectations.”
With more games entering the market, studios face pressure to keep releases both familiar and relevant. The collaboration between SlotCatalog and Evoplay suggests a practical direction forward, where research becomes part of the groundwork rather than a tool used only after launch.
Uncrossable Rush reflects that mindset. The project shows how established formats can be refined through informed planning, resulting in an experience that feels deliberate, accessible and suited to today’s players.

Italy
TaDa Signs Partnership with StarVegas
TaDa has signed a new partnership with ADM licenced casino platform, StarVegas.
Players in Italy will have even more access to the market-leading TriLuck and Hit the Cash branded titles 3 Coin Treasures and Joker Coins respectively, alongside the internationally acclaimed Devil Fire 2 and the Fortune Gems series.
As the No.1 provide for fish-shooting titles, TaDa has been successfully building awareness of these multi-player and skill-influenced games in Italy. Mega Fishing and Ocean King Jackpot, both part of TaDa’s Expert Pro range, are accessible to starvegas.it customers, alongside the more beginner-friendly titles Crazy Hunter and Dinosaur Tycoon II.
Crash style games are a growing part of TaDa’s 220+ portfolio, including Mines and Mines Grand as certified for the Italian market. With up to four new releases added monthly alongside a continuous programme of certifications, StarVegas players will be able to enjoy a steady stream of innovation and immersive casino games from TaDa. Distribution is through Tuko Productions SRL and BF Games.
Founded 2012 and part of Greentube, the digital gaming and entertainment division of NOVOMATIC, StarVegas is a licenced, online gaming platform operating in the regulated Italian market.
Featuring a mix of classic and legacy casino titles alongside live casino content, all gaming experiences are provided in full compliance with Italian regulations.

Ray Lee, Director of Business Development, TaDa Gaming, said: “Across 2026, our focus on Italy’s regulated market will continue to lead our growth strategy. Working with established and instantly recognisable operators like StarVegas reinforces player trust in our brand and visibility for our unique offering. We are delighted to be working together.”
Paolo Marchi, Brand Manager at Starvegas.it, said: “Integrating TaDa’s games aligns with our plans for diversification. Fish-shooting games are appealing to a new and younger demographic which supports our customer acquisition strategy; while TaDa’s signature inter-triggering features across its slots’ portfolio leans into our existing clients’ preferences.”
