Week 8/2020 slot games releases
Here are this weeks latest slots releases!
BGaming, a Belarus-based online solutions provider to casinos, has launched its new slot, called Avalon: The Lost Kingdom. It is based on a mythical tale about a magical island. BGaming has captured the essence of the story and brought it to life in 5х3 slot with 20 paylines and a wide choice of features like free spins, multipliers and bonus round. The wild symbol in the game replaces any symbol in the line and gives a player a higher chance of winning.
Joker Troupe, the latest blockbuster online slot release from Push Gaming, turns up the heat on traditional joker games to deliver a thrilling player experience packed with three breath-taking bonus features. Joker Troupe boasts not one but three jokers – Blue Joker, Green Joker and Red Joker– to deliver insane action. This, combined with a generous return to player of 96.68% and a volatility that sits at the high end of the scale, makes for a chart-topping online slot. Each Joker – Blue, Green and Red – is a Scatter Symbol and when three of each land anywhere on the reels, the respective Joker Feature is triggered and the potential for big wins increases significantly.
Players head into the skies in search of big wins in Blueprint Gaming’s latest release Mighty Griffin Megaways™. The base gameplay features cascading wins and mystery symbols, which when landing in view transform to reveal the same random symbol for even more ways for players to find their fortune. Three or more Griffin Shield symbols in view triggers the Golden Streak free spins round, during which the win multiplier increases after every reaction. Before entering the round, players are given the opportunity to gamble for even more free spins by spinning the wheel.
Yggdrasil is inviting players to the world’s biggest carnival set in the vibrant streets of Rio De Janeiro in its latest title Brazil Bomba. Players can dance the night away in Brazil Bomba where symbols cascade down the 6×8 reels and every cluster of six or more identical symbols brings a win. Land a Bomb symbol and watch it explode across the reels in a star formation clearing up to 16 positions and giving players even more chances to win. Getting a Dropdown win or landing the Bomb feature triggers multipliers which have no cap, offering unlimited rewards. Trigger the generous Brazil Bomba free spin mode by landing 3 or more Free Spin symbols anywhere on the reels.
R. Franco Digital, R. Franco Group’s digital division, has announced the launch of its latest slot, TimeLab. Following a highly successful debut at ICE London, the title is now available for R Franco’s worldwide operator network, including Wanabet, the company’s online betting and gaming platform. The 5×3, 30-payline title takes players on an epic adventure through the ages, encountering a range of exhilarating wilds, respins, and bonuses along the way.
Pragmatic Play, has launched Mysterious, the most recent addition to its ever-expanding slot portfolio. The 4×6 video slot boasts 4096 ways to win, inviting players to grab the multipliers as they hunt the Lord. And with Mystery Symbols creating big wins when the Lady is encountered and the Baron summons Infectious Wilds, the game would be a fantastic addition to any operator’s suite of titles. Players choose their own free spins at the fateful hour, selecting roaming wilds or up to 12x the multiplier in this rip-roaring Victorian adventure.
Play’n GO have announced the latest title out of their stable, as part of their 52-game release year. Their latest slot, entitled Dawn of Egypt, is a 5-reel slot with a particular focus on powerful symbols, set in an alternate reality where ancient Egypt is ruled by the great god Ra. The slot suppliers are known for the quality of their Egyptian-themed games, a favourite among regular slot players, and this is their second Egpytian released following their 2020 debut Legacy of Dead.
Endorphina, the online slot game provider from Prague, is already about to release yet another game early this year. As we’ve recently heard, this ambitious slot provider will be releasing 3 brand new games in February alone. Now the time has come when the provider is releasing their SECOND February release. The new game is called Aus Dem Tal, the story of a brave dwarf with his little mouse friend who mines through outstanding caves full of ore to collect bronze, silver, and gold. It sounds like this slot will be a great adventure for players who seek to collect bigger wins hidden in mines of pure gold.
True Lab, a game provider within the True Flip group, presents its latest video slot with vivid arts and engaging bonus features. Hunting for treasures, Victoria has to conquer the drought-ridden desert. Whenever two Tornado Wilds drop out on the reels, a Sandstorm begins. A Wild then randomly moves across the reels and collapses into a thunderstorm of sticky Tornado re-spins if two Wilds match. Victoria collects the Oasis symbols, advancing to the chilling splashes and soft palm shadows where Oasis Free Spins cure her fatigue with the Waterfall Wilds expanding to an extra reel.
NetGaming, the creative casino games studio, has released its latest spectacular slot, Festival of Fortune. The 5×3, 15-payline title, created in celebration of Chinese New Year, sees a range of colourful symbols and inviting characters appear against an immersive traditional Far-Eastern background. Players enjoying good fortune can trigger the Lucky Lion Bonus where a feast of free spins await them, with the Mystery Replace feature allowing for up to 27 additional free spins. The game is the latest addition to NetGaming’s dynamic slot portfolio, which is available in 26 languages and can be played using more than 40 currencies.

GamCare releases Annual Report following record breaking year of support on the National Gambling Helpline
GamCare’s National Gambling Helpline received a record 55,228 calls and online chats from people experiencing gambling harm in 2023-24 – a 25% increase from the previous year – according to the charity’s Annual Report.
In a year marked by uncertainty over the future shape and structure of the gambling harms treatment sector following the previous government’s white paper on gambling reform, the charity continued to prioritise those at-risk of, or currently experiencing, gambling harm.
Of all calls and online chats that were responded to on GamCare’s Helpline in 2023/24, 41,070 (74%) were classed as supportive interventions. This includes supporting people with initial guidance and advice as well as delivering a seamless entry point into structured treatment services, with individuals completing treatment reporting a significant reduction in gambling-related distress and financial harm.
In March 2024, the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities published an assessment of the gambling treatment system, highlighting that 57% of individuals engaging in treatment were referred by the National Gambling Helpline. This underscores the Helpline’s critical role in connecting people to the support they need. Over 9,100 free treatment sessions were delivered in the year to April 2024, with an average of just 2.1 days’ wait from point of referral.
GamCare’s targeted programmes aimed at young people, women, and the criminal justice system provided training on how to spot the signs of harms and where to signpost into support for 10,344 professionals, and education for 53,324 young people, children and parents. The Women’s Programme, in partnership with organisations such as Refuge, trained 3,813 professionals to recognise and address gambling-related harm among women.
Margot Daly, Executive Chair of GamCare’s Board, says: “Throughout a challenging year and with heightened demand for our services, GamCare’s staff have got on with the job of preventing harm where possible and treating harm where necessary. While we expect important changes in the gambling harms landscape, we have been determined not to let this uncertainty affect our relentless focus on the people who really matter – those at-risk of or currently experiencing gambling harms.
“I would like to thank and pay tribute to our frontline staff who provide 24/7 support for all those at risk or in distress. I also want to thank GamCare’s senior executive team who have steered GamCare through a period of sustained change, and to my fellow trustees for their guidance, unwavering support and the time each has dedicated to ensuring that the charity stays on course and on mission.
“As we look ahead to how the future of the gambling harms sector is shaped, we are committed to working proactively with the NHS and other partners and commissioners to ensure that people are continually able to receive the right support at the right time.”
