The world-class independent game studio, ThunderSpin, has launched a ‘spooktacular’ slot to entertain players and boost operator income in one frighteningly fun game, Halloween Witch Party.

As the season of the witch approaches ThunderSpin’s new 5-reel, 4-row video slot has been designed to appeal to players of all ages and genders across the world with the game coinciding with the launch of the brand’s new sports betting and casino site OLE!bet.

Confirming the commercial nature of its latest holiday-themed title, Jeff Letlat, CEO of ThunderSpin, explained: “As the name reflects, this game was created especially for the spookiest event of the year – Halloween! Linking games to events and celebrations such as Halloween is highly impactful to operators’ income with numbers growing dramatically around these titles. For us, it’s about diversifying our portfolio to have different games associated with different holidays resulting in strong percentage uplifts for operators and crucially, creating engaging gameplay for players.”

Halloween Witch Party joins ThunderSpin’s other high-quality modern slots linked to specific events and celebrations and full game portfolio, including Kingdom of Glory and Book of Treasures, providing high rewards for both players and operators throughout the calendar year.

The company’s latest game is played with 25 fixed winning lines, 1 bet level (fixed) equals 10 coins and different coin value as well as a maximum win per spin of 1000x bet. In addition to seasonal special symbols and a ghostly Avalanche Feature there are also multiple themed bonuses to ensure exciting and engaging gameplay centred around the Halloween theme.

ThunderSpin’s renowned game studio of 20 highly-skilled developers in Easter Europe undertake significant R&D to ensure its games are adaptable for different regions making them suitable across multiple markets. “We select universally popular themes,” he added. “As targeting specific cultures only would limit our growth opportunities. We prefer ‘products’ of popular culture. We develop game mechanics with interesting and popular features to reach the market and audience as fast and as wide as possible. We aim to elaborate diversity in portfolio, so anyone could find a game due to his/her preferences.

“With Halloween Witch Party, we wanted to focus on players who are aware of Halloween’s visual themes and ideas such as pumpkins and ghosts but whilst also using recognisable themes which appeal across the world.”

Corresponding with the Q3 release of its latest slot, ThunderSpin will also be debuting its sports betting and casino site OLE!bet, signalling a strong commitment to the future of betting in the face of COVID-19 restrictions across the LatAm region. “We debated pushing the launch backwards because of COVID but decided to push forward once sports events started again,” added Letlat. “While there will be an initial minor difference of no offline audiences for our platform, OLE!bet’s focus is on sportsbook and offering great odds. We are confident that in line with the target market, the product offers an all-in-one solution, which is what modern users demand.”

The OLE!bet sportsbook and casino brand offers a wide range of various sport and casino games, and the best service for its clients from all over the world resulting in a uniquely positioned platform for one of the strongest emerging markets in gaming. “LatAm is growing,” concluded Letlat. “As a region it has been hugely underestimated during recent years and now it is booming. Our website features the latest software, great promotions and a carefully selected collection of finest games which players should also check out while trying their luck on our latest release Halloween Witch Party which is available on OLE!bet just in time for the spookiest season.”

IBJR hails App Store approval as a milestone in the fight against illegal betting in Brazil

Published

ibjr-hails-app-store-approval-as-a-milestone-in-the-fight-against-illegal-betting-in-brazil

The Brazilian Institute for Responsible Gaming (IBJR) considers Apple’s decision to allow the distribution of regulated sports betting and online gaming applications on its Brazilian App Store a key milestone for the consolidation of a transparent and integrity-driven sector.

This measure strengthens regulation by making it easier for users to clearly identify operators that are duly authorized to operate in compliance with national rules.

Following Google’s decision, made less than a year ago, to authorize the distribution of sports betting apps on the Play Store in Brazil, this initiative acts as a powerful cybersecurity filter and helps protect consumers from the risks of the illegal market.

Since only operators licensed by the SPA are allowed to offer services to iOS users, the process of channeling traffic into the regulated environment is further strengthened.

However, for the measure to be fully effective, continuous enforcement is required, as several illegal apps can still be found on major platforms.

Data from Instituto Locomotiva, in partnership with LCA Consultoria, indicate that the illegal environment—much of it controlled by organized crime—moves around R$40 billion per year in Brazil and generates an estimated annual loss of R$10.8 billion in tax revenue.

In this context, actions that help distinguish legal operators from unauthorized ones are essential.

The presence of applications on both the Play Store and Apple Store reinforces the commitment to Responsible Gaming, as they integrate functionalities required by legislation and audited by the platforms.

These include strict age verification to prevent access by minors under 18, clear risk warnings related to gambling, and self-exclusion tools.
