Evolution today announced the launch of its unique new Funky Time live game show, a ’70s disco-themed, bonus and multiplier-laden extravaganza, and the company’s biggest new game show since Crazy Time.

This innovative online game with live presenter celebrates the iconic disco era with a retro club ambience, funky beats, daring dancefloor moves and the chance for players to accumulate multipliers in all phases of the game.

At the heart of the main game a spinning DigiWheel money wheel generates numerous random multipliers per round, which can further multiply winnings on either numbers, letters or bonus games. The 64 segments on the wheel, which spell out the words PLAY, FUNK and TIME, and which also feature a series of number 1s and various bonus game segments, offer different ways to win and progress in the game.

Win on any of the number 1 or letter segments of the wheel and players can cash out instant wins. Win on a bonus segment and they proceed to one of four unique bonus games – Bar, Stayin’ Alive, Disco, and VIP Disco — in which multipliers are guaranteed. While all bonus games offer great entertainment, Disco and VIP Disco really put the FUN in FUNKY, as both see the cool Mr Funky character step out onto the virtual dance floor to collect even more multipliers while avoiding toppling off the edge of the floor.

Todd Haushalter, Evolution’s Chief Product Officer, said: “At Evolution, we invented the live Game Show gaming category with Dream Catcher, and since then we’ve never looked back. We have created most of the top 10 new games of the last five years, many of which are our live game shows, and we’re confident that Funky Time will achieve similar success. When I first saw the DigiWheel, a big vertical revolving wheel with an electronic LED centre, I knew there was a great game show to be built around it. Then the team and I started brainstorming what that game could be, and we knew we were onto something very special with Funky Time.”

Haushalter continued: “Around 100 people were involved in getting Funky Time live, and I’m incredibly proud of their achievements. It’s the most expensive and complex game we’ve ever created, but most importantly, it’s a game that just oozes fun. I’m often asked, ‘what’s the inspiration for new game ideas?’ The answer comes from literally asking ourselves the question, ‘what is the most fun game we can make?’ While different players look for different things, Funky Time is sure to have broad appeal.  We believe it’s every bit as entertaining as Crazy Time, but it’s got a completely different feel and it adds a few extra goodies too. I hope players enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.”

Supplier secures AGLC registration and extends its Canadian footprint beyond Ontario, where it has been live since 2022.

Greentube has gone live in Alberta on the day the province opened as a newly regulated iGaming market, marking the supplier’s first launch in the jurisdiction.

The NOVOMATIC Digital Gaming and Entertainment division said it completed regulatory and technical due diligence and secured registration with the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) commission to operate in the province. Alberta becomes only the second Canadian province to regulate iGaming after Ontario, with the new framework replacing the monopoly previously held by Play Alberta.

The Alberta launch builds on Greentube’s existing Canadian footprint. The company has been live in Ontario since 2022 and described the Alberta debut as part of its wider North American expansion strategy.

Greentube said Alberta players will initially have access to a curated set of titles including Piggy Prizes™ Wand of Riches 2™, Rumble Riches™ Haulin’ Gold™ and Firecracker Frenzy™ Money Toad™, as well as Silver Lux Big Win Spinner, Starlight Jackpots™ Captain’s Catch™ and Charming Lady’s Boom™.

David Bolas, Commercial Director at Greentube, said: “Going live in Alberta on the day the market opens is an important step for Greentube and reflects the strong momentum we are seeing in Canada.

“We welcome the opportunity a new jurisdiction offers and look forward to working with locally licensed operators to introduce our established offering to players in Alberta. With a balanced line-up of new releases and proven performers, we are well placed to offer a compelling experience in the province and support our long-term ambitions in the region.”

Spinomenal has released 3 Fuego Chillies, a new 5×3 video slot themed around a Mexican street fiesta. The game ships with a feature-led Bonus Game and a top prize billed as a Grand Jackpot of x3,000 the total bet.

The Wild is a mariachi in a sombrero and substitutes for all symbols except the Bonus, BOOST, COLLECT, MULTI and Jackpot symbols. Spinomenal said five Wilds on a payline return x10 the bet, with four paying x2 and three paying x0.5, while three- and four-Wild combinations only pay when followed by a Bonus or Special Bonus symbol.

Six or more Bonus and Special Bonus symbols trigger the Bonus Game. Triggering symbols lock in place and the feature starts with three bonus spins; only Bonus and Special Bonus symbols can land, carrying prizes from x1 to x10 the total bet, and each new symbol resets the spin counter back to three.

During the feature, BOOST assigns a random value (x2, x3, x4, x5, x7 or x10) and adds it to every symbol on the reels, while MULTI applies a x2, x3 or x5 multiplier to all symbols before taking a value based on the chosen multiplier. COLLECT then totals the values of all Bonus symbols into a single prize, and a MYSTERY symbol can transform into a BOOST, MULTI, COLLECT or Jackpot symbol.

Jackpot symbols during the feature pay Mini (x20), Minor (x50) or Major (x150), while filling all 15 cells awards the Grand Jackpot of x3,000 the total bet. Spinomenal also said a Bonus Blast Feature can trigger at random in the base game to spread extra symbols toward the Bonus Game, and the title includes a Buy Feature for instant entry. Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “3 Fuego Chillies brings the fun of the fiesta straight to the reels. The three chilli features keep the Bonus Game sizzling and the x3,000 Grand Jackpot gives players plenty to celebrate. We think this one will go down a treat with slot fans everywhere.”

The new Promotional Markets add substitution-enabled player props designed to transfer bets to replacement players during a match.

Sporting Risk has expanded its Promotional Markets suite with a new set of SureSub player prop markets, distributed via the Sportradar Unified Odds Feed.

The company said SureSub is designed to extend eligible player prop bets beyond substitutions by automatically transferring selections to the replacement player. Sporting Risk added that operators can customise the feature, including its branding and name, to fit their sportsbook UX.

Sporting Risk positioned the release as part of its wider Promotional Markets portfolio, which it said includes products such as 2Up and other enhanced settlement mechanics aimed at helping operators differentiate without relying on bonuses, free bets or price-led promotions.

Andy Phillips, Chief Business Development Officer at Sporting Risk, said: “Operators are constantly looking for new ways to stand out in increasingly competitive markets. Promotional Markets do exactly that. They give operators a differentiated betting experience that keeps customers engaged throughout the match, without relying on bonuses or free bet campaigns. SureSub is a natural addition to that portfolio. It’s a mechanic customers already understand, but we’ve expanded it across a much broader range of player prop markets. Combined with our distribution through Sportradar, operators can now roll out SureSub at a scale that simply hasn’t been possible before.”

Sporting Risk said the product can be delivered directly or through the Sportradar Unified Odds Feed, with deployment designed to work across existing sportsbook infrastructure and scale across multiple competitions and leagues.
