Play’n GO, the world’s leading casino entertainment provider, is participating in a new initiative taking place as part of the G7 Leader Summit, which will see the company play a leading role in shaping global gambling policy.

The inaugural Global Forum on Responsible Gaming and Gambling Policy is part of a three-part series, which will see Play’n GO also take part in the G20 Summit and the United Nations General Assembly later this year.

Play’n GO’s Head of Government Affairs, Shawn Fluharty, will lead a session on the opening day of the G7 Summit in Calgary on June 13th and will engage directly with global leaders, regulators, neuroscientists, and public health experts on the critical intersection of gambling, mental wellness, and policy development.

The company is the only online supplier to be invited to participate at the forum and its presence underscores its unwavering commitment to responsible play and its pioneering role in shaping a sustainable future for the global gaming industry.

The result of the three meetings will be recommendations that will be formally presented through policy channels, helping to define the next generation of international policy on public health, youth protection, innovation, and societal prosperity.

Play’n GO has been a vocal advocate for increased regulation in the online gaming space for many years, recently announcing it will never supply its content portfolio to sweepstakes casinos.

Shawn Fluharty, Head of Government Affairs at Play’n GO, said: “Positioning responsible gaming at the world’s premier policy forums is vital to ensuring regulation keeps pace with rapid innovation and effectively protects consumers.

“As the only online supplier engaging directly at the G7 Forum on Responsible Gaming and Gambling Policy, and soon at the G20 Summit and United Nations General Assembly, Play’n GO’s presence will showcase the critical value of early collaboration with lawmakers and regulators in forging cohesive, global standards.”

PG Soft launches galactic quest: Galaxy Miner

PG Soft, a world-class digital mobile games company, has launched its latest all-star game, Galaxy Miner. This space-inspired title is a 3-reel, 3-row video slot featuring Win Vortex symbols and Prize symbols up to 1000x. Players travel to the year 3127, to a world beyond the stars dominated by the legendary X Vortex — a force that swirls in silence, devouring everything in its path and forging Galactic Treasures deep within.

During the main game, both Win Vortex symbols and Prize symbols can appear on the reels and they display values ranging from 0.5x to 1000x of the bet total. Each Win Vortex symbol may have one to five counters. If one or more Win Vortex symbols and Prize symbols appear on the reels, each Win Vortex symbol will use 1 counter to collect the values of all Prize symbols. After using 1 counter, if any Win Vortex symbols have remaining counters left, those Win Vortex symbols will use 1 counter to collect the values of all Prize symbols again. Once the counters are gone on the Win Vortex symbols, wins equal to the values in the Win Vortex symbol will be paid.

Galaxy Miner also features an epic Bonus game which will trigger with six or more Prize symbols. At the beginning of the Bonus feature, a Persistent Win Vortex symbol is added in the middle row of the second reel, and the Persistent Win Vortex symbol will collect the values of all Prize symbols. Players receive three Bonus Spins, and every new Prize or Win Vortex symbol resets the counter back to three.

If one or more Prize symbols arrive on the reels, the Persistent Win Vortex symbol will collect the values of all Prize symbols. During any bonus spin, if one or more Win Vortex symbols and Prize symbols appear on the reels, each Win Vortex symbol will use 1 counter to collect the values of all Prize symbols.

After a counter is used, any Win Vortex symbols with remaining counters will use one to collect all Prize symbol values again. If no counters remain, the Persistent Win Vortex symbol collects the values of all Prize and Win Vortex symbols. Win Vortex symbols with collected values stay on the reels until the Bonus Feature ends, while the Persistent Win Vortex collects Win Vortex values on every Bonus Spin.

PG Soft’s spokesperson commented: “Galaxy Miner dares the boldest explorers to enter the vortex in search of Galactic Treasures hidden deep within.”
