Online casino software supplier Tom Horn Gaming has revealed its latest cutting-edge title, Book of Ba. The Secret of the Netherworld.

Players are invited to journey across the dark world of the Egyptian netherworld, a bleak intersection between the realms of the dead and the living. To succeed on this quest, players must join their forces with a bird-like creature Ba that helps them find the Book of Ba that opens the doors to a host of features and big wins.

The base game of this slot is enhanced with the Shatter mode, in which new winning symbols explode on the reels to make room for new winning combinations. A maximum count of reels shattered is 4 and each shatter round increases the multiplier up to x4, helping players to amass some nice wins.

Players can end up with even larger payouts when three Book symbols land on the reels as they trigger 10 free spins with a special expanding symbol chosen at random. This special symbol doesn’t necessarily have to appear on adjoining reels and can pop up on any of the five spinning reels. As in the base game, the multiplier rises with each free spin up to x4.

In the slot Book of Ba. The Secret of the Netherworld, Tom Horn introduces a popular Egyptian theme, which combined with beautiful graphics, immersive sounds and satisfying winning rhythm, will definitely hit the sweet spot of players in many markets.

The game was released worldwide on 15 April 2020.

Gaming Corps – a publicly-listed game development company based in Sweden, has gone live with Canadian online sportsbook and casino operator PowerPlay.

The agreement brings Gaming Corps into Ontario through one of Canada’s established online betting and casino brands, while also positioning the studio to go live with PowerPlay from day one in Alberta when the province opens its newly regulated online gaming market in July.

The partnership also extends Gaming Corps’ content across all PowerPlay.com markets, creating a broader route to players through an operator with a distinctly Canadian identity.

PowerPlay, which launched in 2018, combines sports betting across more than 40 categories with a casino offering more than 1,200 games, alongside a 24/7 live casino experience. The operator is registered with iGaming Ontario and regulated by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario.

At launch, PowerPlay will introduce players to several of Gaming Corps’ most recognisable content strands, led by the 3 Pigs franchise, including the popular 3 Pigs of Olympus and latest instalment, 4 Gym Pigs: Porky Power.

The roll-out also lands as international football prepares to dominate the summer calendar, with Penalty Champion: Goals to Glory, Goals to Glory Football Fever and Goals to Glory Instant Blitz bringing three distinct football-led releases to PowerPlay’s casino catalogue.

Adding a different tempo to the launch is Banknote Blitz, a fast-paced instant win inspired slot where shifting Win Frames, prize collection mechanics and multipliers can unlock full banknote rewards and wins of up to 5,000x.

Graham Greensmith, Chief Commercial Officer at Gaming Corps, said “Canada is becoming an increasingly important market for Gaming Corps, and this launch puts us in a strong position at exactly the right time. Ontario has already shown what a well-structured regulated market can deliver, and Alberta now represents a significant next step.

“PowerPlay has a clear local brand presence and operates across both sportsbook and casino in a way that fits closely with where we see the market heading. This is a launch that gives us an immediate foothold in Ontario, a clear path into Alberta, and a strong foundation for further growth across wider PowerPlay.com markets.”

Lauren Holder, Head of Casino at PowerPlay said: “PowerPlay has grown by focusing on what Canadian players value: choice, trust and an entertainment experience that feels grounded in this market. Gaming Corps fits well within that approach. Its games bring a distinctive tone and pace to our casino, while also giving us content that can work around key sporting moments and new regulated market opportunities. As we continue to develop our casino proposition, we look forward to working with Gaming Corps and bringing its content to players across all PowerPlay.com markets.”
