Latest slot from 1X2 Network’s Iron Dog Studio subsidiary takes players to the earth’s core where gems and gold coins await

1X2 Network is taking players deep underground to a mine located at the earth’s core where a team of Dwarves are harvesting rare gems and coins in Dwarven Gems Megaways, the latest slot to leave its production line and built on the state-of-the-art GECKO framework.

The long anticipated first game on Iron Dog Studio’s new framework shows the smooth gameplay and enhanced user interface that 1X2 Network’s teams have talked about in the lead up to this release. The robust and flexible framework is set to form the basis of the portfolio for a long time to come and has been built from the ground up with the end user in mind. Dwarven Gems Megaways showcases the best of the framework well and is sure to leave operators and players excited for more content built upon it.

Players must join the brave team of miners on their quest to explore the deepest crevices as they dig up treasure and return them to the earth’s surface. Gems glisten against the light of the torches as the legendary crew mine away at the caves in search of big wins.

They are helped along the way by three bonus features – the Dwarven Bomb, Lucky Last Spin and Power Gems.

The Dwarven Bomb can land during the base game or Free Spins, acting as a Sticky Wild. When not involved in a win, the bomb explodes to cause a tumble and giving a new opportunity to win.

Lucky Last Spin kicks in at the end of the Free Spins bonus. If you win on the last Free Spin of the bonus round, Lucky Last Spin will grant you more freespins and allow you to carry on the fun.

Power Gems can also appear during the Free Spins round. Every Power Gem the player can mine from the rock adds two to four Wilds to the reels. If players excavate two Power Gems, Wilds may also appear on reel five. What’s more, for each Power Gem mined, two additional Free Spins are awarded.

Dwarven Gems includes 1X2 Network’s Bonus Upgrader, a feature of Iron Dog Studio’s recent releases that has carried across. In markets where Bonus Buy is available, Bonus Upgrader allows players to purchase the bonus feature in all the standard ways, whilst also allowing them to pay more for a version with a greater chance of landing modifying features.

Dwarven Gems is the latest in Iron Dog Studio’s successful portfolio of Megaways titles, iterating on already successful features, whilst adding in new mechanics means Dwarven Gems is a game that has plenty to offer once you dig a little deeper.

Rory Kimber, Account Management and Marketing Director at 1X2 Network, said: “The Iron Dog Studio team have done it once again – Dwarven Gems Megaways is an incredibly fun slot that offers a different take on the popular gem theme.

“The game’s three features will certainly help players in their quest to mine gems and gold and of course the Megaways mechanic delivers hundreds of thousands of ways to win with every spin. This represents a big moment for us as we move onto the GECKO framework and open up a raft of possibilities for our future content. The game itself is fantastic in my view, but it really is just the beginning”

BASILISK, the global esports organization built to champion science, today announced the signing of legendary fighting game competitor Justin ‘JWong’ Wong as captain of its newly formed Fighting Game Community (FGC) Division. Wong will lead BASILISK’s entry into the FGC by recruiting players, developing community events, and creating FGC – science crossover content.

As Captain of BASILISK FGC, Wong will leverage BASILISK’s data analytics to scout and train the next generation of FGC pros.

“Math is super important to fighting games. I’m excited to join science’s esports team,” said Wong upon joining BASILISK. “I’m passionate about finding promising players with a positive mentality and shaping them into the next big thing. I want to see somebody else in the spotlight after me and help them reach their potential. If we can discover the next world champion, that would be fantastic.”

The signing comes on the heels of BASILISK’s new partnerships with The Planetary Society and Caltech’s Institute for Quantum Information and Matter (IQIM), announced in July. These collaborations create a powerful bridge between renowned scientific institutions and gamers, which Wong will amplify to his millions of followers and fans.

“Justin is a dream addition to our organization,” added BASILISK co-founder Hans Kassier. “He exemplifies the dedication and analytical capacity required to be an esports champion or great scientist.”

The signing also creates opportunities for cross-over content with BASILISK’s diverse roster, including chess Grandmaster Vincent Keymer and award-winning science communicator Kyle Hill, who brings over 2.5 million followers and a vast network of science enthusiasts to the organization.

International guests arriving at South Korea’s largest foreigner-only casino, INSPIRE Entertainment Resort, now enjoy a significantly faster and more seamless check-in experience. Customer onboarding times have noticeably improved following the integration of Regula’s advanced identity verification technology. Regula Document Reader SDK, the most comprehensive ID verification solution in the world, integrates with the resort’s anti-money laundering (AML) procedures, boosting operational efficiency and compliance.

Seeking to enhance operational efficiency and meet evolving AML requirements, INSPIRE Entertainment Resort sought a faster and more accurate solution. The resort, which features a high-volume casino catering exclusively to foreign guests, needed a system capable of recognizing passports from around the globe with minimal friction.

Following vendor evaluations, INSPIRE selected Regula Document Reader SDK for its superior document reading speed, intuitive interface, and unmatched global ID coverage. Regula’s solution is powered by the company’s proprietary ID template database—the world’s largest—covering 15,000+ document templates across 254 countries and territories.

Deployed across six entrance stations, Regula Document Reader SDK enables real-time extraction and validation of critical ID data, such as name, date of birth, nationality, and passport number. This data is then passed directly to INSPIRE’s AML system, which in turn performs automated screening against external compliance and watchlist databases.

Since deploying Regula Document Reader SDK, INSPIRE Entertainment Resort casino has experienced:

  1. Faster document processing and guest entry.
  2. Significant reduction in manual rescans and staff workload.
  3. Consistently smooth onboarding, even during peak entry hours.

“As the team responsible for passport scanning at the casino, we’re very satisfied with the improvements Regula has brought. The speed of document processing has noticeably increased, and guest entry has become much smoother. It’s a reliable solution that has elevated the efficiency of our daily operations,” says Dr. Ilnam Lee, IT Director at INSPIRE Entertainment Resort.

“In industries like hospitality, every second counts. We’re happy to support INSPIRE Entertainment Resort in creating a faster and more secure guest onboarding experience while meeting strict AML requirements. Our focus is to make accurate identity verification seamless, even in complex international scenarios, and this project is a great example of that in action,” says Ihar Kliashchou, Chief Technology Officer at Regula.
