Popeye, cazatesoros disembarks in Spanish online casinos

The strongest and most charismatic sailor worldwide begins sailing with the crew of MGA Games along online casino platforms in Spain. After the success of Flash Gordon and Mr. Magnificent, MGA Games, the expert developer in localised product for global operators, has chosen the legendary comic book character to create Popeye, cazatesoros.
The husky character first appeared in a comic strip in January 1929, but its popularity was such that it was quickly adapted to film. Its trajectory includes up to five television series and a movie that has become a cult film. Nowadays, and in better shape than ever, the mythical strongman continues to flex muscle and has transformed into a Spanish slot game, together with his girlfriend Olivia and the villain Brutus.
MGA Games, which owns the rights of the characters, has managed to perfectly reproduce the image of Popeye and his friends with an exceptional graphic quality and a groundbreaking style that provides dynamism to the characters and revives the favorite sailor of our childhood, with his tattoos, his pipe and his powerful spinach.
Excellent graphics are combined with the musical creation and the carefully crafted sound effects, with producer, Quique Tejada, in charge of the project. The result is a fully immersive experience that completely engages the player in a grand new adventure.
Popeye, cazatesoros also includes the popular mini-games by MGA Games that provide greater fun and entertainment to online casino users. On this occasion, after obtaining a prize from the figure symbols “Popeye”, “Brutus” and “Olivia”, the players will gain access to the map where they can freely choose from 4 minigames: Isla pirata, Desierto, Naufragio and Isla dorada.
The latest production by MGA Games will officially be launched in the Spanish market today Monday, March 30.

Treats of Terror haunts the reels with cascading suspense

Play’n GO gets spooky at the cinema with Treats of Terror, a 5×5 grid slot set in a shadowy cinema where ghostly confections and cascading symbols bring unexpected rewards with every drop.
Lights flicker and curtains twitch as Treats of Terror fills the screen with glowing sweets and spectral surprises. Set within a haunted theatre, this scatter-pays slot challenges players to land six or more matching symbols anywhere on the grid. Winning icons vanish in a cascade, replaced by fresh drops – and that’s where the tension truly builds.
Where this slot really earns its title is with its Collector mechanic. At any moment, Cash or Prize Symbols might appear – with values of up to x1000 – but it’s the eerie Collector who steals the show, harvesting all visible values for instant wins. With multiple Collectors on screen, each one gathers all symbol values independently, stacking up the scares and the rewards.
In Free Spins, players move through a three-act feature. Stage 1 kicks off with a x2 multiplier, increasing to x3 and then x5 by collecting Scatters along the way – all while the collection mechanic stays active. The theatre’s shadows deepen, the multipliers rise, and the tension never drops.
While Treats of Terror stands alone in its haunted setting, it builds on the cascading slot legacy seen in titles like Sweet Alchemy 2 and Honey Rush, marrying immersive visuals with powerful symbol synergy. Fans of grid slots and atmospheric design will find themselves right at home in this haunted house of film.
George Olekszy, Head of Game Retention, said: “Treats of Terror is all about sustained suspense. The cascading reels, the escalating Free Spins, and the Collector mechanic work together to deliver a layered, cinematic experience for players.”
With an eye-catching design and features that tie tightly to its theme, Treats of Terror offers a compelling blend of tension and reward.
