Yggdrasil releases first Splitz game Temple Stacks with unparalleled win potential
New mechanic offers up to 248,832 pay ways
Yggdrasil, the innovative online gaming solutions provider, has unveiled its first industry-changing Splitz title, Temple Stacks: Splitz™, offering never-before-seen win potential.
The Aztec-themed game gives players the first view of Yggdrasil’s revolutionary Splitz™ mechanic, which transforms the 3×5 slot grid into reels of infinite potential, offering up to 248,832 pay ways.
Mystery stacks can fill reels and reveal anything from three to nine stacked symbols of the same kind, adding hundreds of pay ways to the game.
Symbols take the form of tiles filled with monstrous beasts and gleaming jewels, with scatters that can also trigger respins if two land, or the potentially hugely rewarding free spins feature if three scatters hit the reels simultaneously.
As players trigger more free spins modes, more rounds are unlocked. Players must choose between Bronze, Silver, Gold or Diamond rounds, where they can select to sacrifice extra spins for the more lucrative opportunity of additional Splitz, with the Diamond round containing up to 12 symbols per stack, creating staggering win potential.
Jonas Strandman, Senior Product Strategist at Yggdrasil, said: “With our Splitz™ mechanic offering thousands of ways to win, every spin could generate huge rewards and we couldn’t be more excited to launch our first Splitz™ title. We eagerly look forward to seeing how the game is received by Yggdrasil fans across the globe.”

Panda Ventura – The First Chapter of a Growing Series
Panda Ventura has quickly become one of EGT Digital’s most warmly received titles, combining a charming character, distinctive visual identity, and performance-driven mechanics.
