Reading Time: < 1 minute
Blueprint Gaming has unveiled its latest branded release, Yogi Bear
, marking another milestone in the studio’s proven track record of delivering high-performing IP-led content.
Following the strong success of The Flintstones
, this new title brings the much-loved Hanna-Barbera character to the reels in a feature-packed slot that captures the charm and mischief of Jellystone Park’s smartest resident.
The launch further strengthens Blueprint’s position as a leader in branded slot experiences, demonstrating its ability to combine recognisable entertainment properties with the studio’s signature gameplay style.
Yogi Bear
takes players on a light-hearted journey alongside Boo-Boo, Cindy Bear and Ranger Smith, with a focus on Money Collect and progressive rewards.
Cash prize symbols can be gathered through the Collect symbol mechanic, moving players along the picnic trail that unlocks new features and bonus rounds. The free spins mode adds even greater potential with increasing multipliers, while completing the trail grants access to the Power Play game for additional cash prizes. The action culminates with the Pic-A-Nic Payday feature, offering respins and multiple opportunities to accumulate further wins.
Yogi Bear
continues Blueprint’s recent momentum in developing nostalgic, IP-driven titles that appeal to both long-time fans and new audiences. The game follows a line of successful collaborations with globally recognised brands, reinforcing the studio’s creative partnership strategy and expertise in licensed game production.
Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing, PR and Events, said: “Yogi Bear
is another brilliant example of how we breathe new life into cherished characters and worlds.
“The game captures everything players love about Yogi and the gang — the cheeky fun, the classic charm, and that sense of adventure — while delivering the engaging mechanics and feature depth Blueprint is known for. It’s a slot that’s truly smarter than the average bear.”

Static Nightmare Abyssways™ tunes fear into wins
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Play’n GO pulls a signal from the void with Static Nightmare Abyssways
, a 6-reel video slot where the TV snow crackles, cables creep, and a quiet cul-de-sac hums with bad intent. ABYSSWAYS
Free Spins and an expanding reel window bring a creeping sense of discovery to every moment.
Something’s wrong in suburbia. CRTs hiss, floppy disks lie, and the kids are the only ones who notice. Static Nightmare Abyssways
builds that retro-tech unease into its mechanics: Scatters stretch the screen and can trigger ABYSSWAYS
Free Spins, while Wilds expand, shuffle and hold to keep the grid shifting. The result is gameplay that rewards tuning in and staying sharp.
Scatters aren’t just signals – they act as surge points, expanding reels up to six rows tall and unlocking more ways to connect. In Free Spins, marked symbols at the bottom drop away while a fresh row rises on top, mimicking interference clearing as the transmission strengthens. Base-game Wilds can grow when Scatters appear, while in Free Spins they stick, compress, and slide horizontally between spins – slipping into new positions to keep the signal strong.
The look of the game is just as distinctive as its features. A neon-soaked cul-de-sac under a sickly green glow sets the scene, with cassette players, glitch-rimmed terminals, and the town’s teen sleuths pulsing on screen. The aesthetic pulls players deep into its eerie fiction, making every reel change feel like part of the story.
Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “Static Nightmare Abyssways
taps into that late-night channel-surfing dread, then turns it into momentum. Expanding reels, ABYSSWAYS
Free Spins and those restless Wilds keep the signal alive – once you lock on, it’s hard to look away.”
With atmosphere thick as static and mechanics that move with purpose, Static Nightmare Abyssways
delivers a slot that players won’t soon forget.

Amusnet Donates a New RFID System to Sofia Library
Reading Time: < 1 minute
In the heart of Sofia, on Slaveykov Square, there is a place where generations have sought and found knowledge, inspiration and silence — the Sofia Library. For almost a century, it has been a magnetic centre for everyone eager to learn and explore.
On its 97th anniversary, the library took another step forward from tradition to the future. Its doors now open not only to the world of literature but also to the digital era, thanks to a new RFID system donated by the Bulgarian software company Amusnet.
The system, installed at the library’s main entrance, enhances security by preventing the unauthorised removal of valuable editions. Yet its importance goes far beyond that. It lays the foundation for the complete modernisation of the processes within this 97-year-old institution.
“The Sofia City Library is part of the cultural memory of our city. We are honored to contribute to its digital transformation so it can continue to inspire generations to come,” said representative of Amusnet.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology that enables contactless recognition and tracking of objects. In libraries, it is applied through microchip tags placed on each book. Unlike traditional barcodes, RFID can read and record information regardless of the tag’s position, surrounding environment or visibility. This allows for faster processing, automated sorting and inventory checks without the need to remove books from the shelves.
Readers can now easily borrow and return books independently, while librarians can focus on what matters most — the connection between people and knowledge.
Welcoming thousands of visitors each month, the Sofia Library continues to evolve. The introduction of RFID technology marks a new beginning which bridges tradition and innovation.
