Booming Games, a top supplier of high-quality gaming content, has today enhanced its C-suite by appointing a new Chief Operating Officer and establishing a new Chief of Staff position. The hires demonstrate Booming Games’ dedication to attracting and developing elite talent, as the company aims for significant growth in the next years and expands its international footprint.
Dan Paleu, who first entered the company as Director of Technical Operations, has been elevated to Chief Operating Officer effective immediately. Before joining Booming Games, Dan worked for 16 years at IGT PlayDigital, formerly iSoftBet, where he held multiple positions, with his latest role being Head of Games. In this role, Dan shaped the company’s overall gaming strategy and managed the production process for new games, from idea to release. He is considered a forward-thinker with an impressive history in the sector.
Dan’s substantial industry experience enables him to enhance Booming Games’ offerings effectively. His attention will center on enhancing operational excellence throughout game delivery, technology, and commercial operations, while guaranteeing regulatory compliance in every market. He will additionally assist in the ongoing growth into new regulated markets, with entries into Switzerland, Bulgaria, and the Czech Republic set for 2026.
In addition, Ramona Petrina has been named Chief of Staff, a newly established role, effective immediately. In November 2022, Ramona became the Director of HR at Booming Games and brings more than 15 years of experience in the industry. Her promotion arrives as the company has definite intentions to strengthen its workforce and attract premier talent to enhance customer experience.
In her new position, Ramona will serve as a strategic ally, aiding in executive planning and decision-making. Her primary emphasis will be to create a distinct set of objectives that align with the broader leadership strategy and assist in implementing essential growth initiatives. In addition, Ramona will keep refining the company’s people strategy, making certain the organization is properly organized and ready for its upcoming growth stage.
Dan and Ramona will attend ICE Barcelona later this month, accompanied by several C-suite peers, to present Booming Games’ new titles and converse about upcoming plans for the year.

Max Niehusen, Founder of Booming Games, said: “We are pleased to announce these two promotions at a key moment in our growth journey. With extensive experience in their fields, Dan and Ramona have already made a significant contribution to the business, providing invaluable expertise. Their promotions reflect our longstanding commitment to retain and nurture top talent, in order to better serve our rapidly expanding customer base.”

Dan Paleu, Chief Operating Officer at Booming Games, said: “After joining Booming Games I quickly understood why the business has an unrivalled reputation in the industry for innovation. The business has set out ambitious growth plans and I am proud to be taking up the position of Chief Operating Officer to help deliver these. I look forward to continuing working closely with Max in the role, providing a market leading experience for our customers and players.”

Ramona Petrina, Chief of Staff at Booming Games, said: “Booming Games has built a powerful foundation, from its product vision and people to its ambition and execution. The scale we’ve achieved is the result of clear direction and strong leadership, and I’m excited to help shape the next phase of the company’s growth as we continue to expand and evolve.”

blueprint-gaming-releases-wolf-fury-fire-blitz-slot

New title adds Fire Spins and Blitz Spins bonuses plus Standard, Super and Ultra Power Play modes at 5x, 10x and 20x stake.

Blueprint Gaming has released a new slot, Wolf Fury Fire Blitz, built around an “evolving Fire Blitz mechanic” and two bonus paths: Fire Spins and Blitz Spins.

The game uses a Fire Blitz logo above the reels as a meter. In the base game and Power Play, the supplier said every Cash and Wolf symbol contributes to the meter, with boosts able to add extra symbols and “guarantees either Fire Spins or Blitz Spins.”

Fire Spins triggers when six or more Cash symbols land in view. Each reel position spins independently to add more Cash or Wolf symbols, with new symbols resetting a three-spin counter and locking in place. Blueprint said the Wolf can land on the centre reel to collect all Cash symbols in view, then collect additional prizes that land for the remainder of the feature.

Blitz Spins activates when a Wolf symbol lands on reel three alongside Cash symbols on two adjacent reels. During the bonus, the Wolf collects every Cash symbol that lands before the reels respin, and additional Wolf symbols can lock in place, with up to three collectors active at once.

The title also includes Blueprint Gaming’s multi-level Power Play, offering Standard, Super or Ultra modes at 5x, 10x or 20x the base stake. In these modes, the company said only Cash and Wolf symbols appear on the reels.

Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing, PR and Events at Blueprint Gaming™, said: “Wolf Fury Fire Blitz combines several of our most engaging mechanics into a fast-paced experience that offers players frequent feature opportunities and exciting collection gameplay. The Fire Blitz mechanic creates anticipation throughout every session, while the dual bonus structure ensures plenty of variety.

“The addition of our multi-level Power Play further enhances the experience by giving players greater control over how they engage with the game, reinforcing our commitment to delivering innovative, feature-rich content that performs across regulated markets worldwide.”

Playson has launched 4 Chili Pots: Hold and Win, a new slot built around Hold and Win and Pots mechanics with two bonus modes and jackpots reaching 10,000x.

The game runs on a 5×3 grid and triggers a Hold and Win Bonus Game with Chili Features when red, orange or green Chili Bonus symbols land, combining with enlarged matching chilis above the reels. The chilli colour determines the feature in play: red triggers a Multi Feature that adds multipliers up to 5x; orange triggers a Mystery Feature that can award Mini, Minor or Major jackpot values or a coin value up to 75x; and green triggers a Collect Feature that gathers the value of all symbols in play, including any attached multipliers.

A golden Super Chili Bonus symbol can trigger a Super Bonus Game on an expanded 5×5 grid, with random Multi, Mystery or Collect features, including combinations. During the round, the active Super Chili Feature lands random Chili Bonus symbols until six are present, which then activates a new feature or enhances the current one.

Playson said jackpots can be triggered in both bonus modes. Filling all 15 cells in the classic bonus awards the Grand Jackpot at 3,000x, while filling all 25 cells in the Super Bonus Game awards the Super Jackpot at 10,000x. Skull-themed symbols can also appear in bonus play and transform into red, orange or green Chili Bonus symbols. The title includes two Buy Bonus levels, allowing players to trigger the Bonus Game or Super Bonus Game with one, two or three Chili Features.

Anton Ivannikov, CPO at Playson, said: “Our fiery new title showcases our continued focus on evolving proven mechanics in fresh and exciting ways. By combining two player-favourite features with layered bonus progression, dynamic Chili Features and a Super Bonus Game offering even greater rewards, we have created a title that delivers excitement throughout every stage of play.

“Complemented by its vibrant Mexican fiesta theme and engaging gameplay, we are confident 4 Chili Pots: Hold and Win will prove to be another valuable addition to our partners’ casino offerings.”

Under the theme “Perspectives,” a total of 43 compliance staff members from the Merkur Group across various countries gathered from 30 June to 1 July to further develop compliance processes in a sustainable manner. Colleagues from Germany, Spain, England, Malta, Australia and the US traveled to the two-day meeting at Benkhausen Castle, the in-house training centre of the Merkur Group. The workshop set the stage with expert presentations on global and digital topics such as cybersecurity, risk management and artificial intelligence. A panel discussion featuring representatives from various international companies within the Merkur Group, as well as a digital quiz, rounded out the programme.

In keeping with its guiding principle, the workshop focused on sharing experiences, fostering global networking and providing impetus for the further development of compliance processes. Because informal exchanges are also key to close cooperation, the evening programme created a relaxed atmosphere and gave participants the opportunity to continue their conversations, make new connections, and further strengthen team spirit across company and national boundaries.

“The ideas and diverse perspectives gained during the workshop will now be incorporated into our day-to-day work and help us to continuously improve collaboration and existing processes,” said Ludwig Beckmann, Chief Compliance Officer of the Merkur Group.

The concluding feedback session also highlighted just how valuable the international exchange is. The term “collaboration” came up particularly often, a clear indication of how highly the participants value working closely together within the international compliance network.
