Is time running out for Sparky & Shortz?
Will robots Sparky & Shortz save the planet Alpha Labori? Find out in Play’n GO’s latest release.
Alpha Labori is on the brink of extinction. Its only hope is a maintenance droid, Sparky, and his companion, Shortz. Shortz is a life-saving robot, but he’s in dire straits. Before they have a chance of helping to repopulate the planet, Sparky must get Shortz in working condition. Time is not on their side.
The game has very clear objectives and goals. Starting in the basement, the player must move Sparky & Shortz up the levels to surface at the alien world so they can complete their mission. There’s enormous Multiplier potential on the table with the Boost Meter. When activated, it will increase the Multiplier number.
A strong narrative plays throughout the game for players to engage with. The title characters play a huge role in this game, so much so that Shortz serves as the background for the reels. Shortz soon fills with brightly coloured stones and quirky aliens that inhabit the world of Alpha Labori.
These loveable characters inspire a sense of fun for the player. Both Sparky and Shortz’s facial features react to how the player is doing at the time. Their digital faces may look sad or ecstatic, and Sparky’s ears also move to reflect his emotions. Ralph, Bumi and Legs, the aliens on the reels, also have little quirks as they evolve when they become stacked symbols.
Head of Games Charlotte Miliziano, said:
“We knew we wanted to head into Outerspace once again, and we liked the idea of robots meet aliens. A strong narrative was really important in this game. And to have the protagonists Sparky & Shortz super animated is a great way to connect with players as they then invest in the story.”

Greentube goes live in Alberta as province opens regulated iGaming
Supplier secures AGLC registration and extends its Canadian footprint beyond Ontario, where it has been live since 2022.

Greentube said Alberta players will initially have access to a curated set of titles including Piggy Prizes
Wand of Riches 2
, Rumble Riches
Haulin’ Gold
and Firecracker Frenzy
Money Toad
, as well as Silver Lux Big Win Spinner, Starlight Jackpots
Captain’s Catch
and Charming Lady’s Boom
.
David Bolas, Commercial Director at Greentube, said: “Going live in Alberta on the day the market opens is an important step for Greentube and reflects the strong momentum we are seeing in Canada.
“We welcome the opportunity a new jurisdiction offers and look forward to working with locally licensed operators to introduce our established offering to players in Alberta. With a balanced line-up of new releases and proven performers, we are well placed to offer a compelling experience in the province and support our long-term ambitions in the region.”

Spinomenal releases new slot 3 Fuego Chillies
Spinomenal has released 3 Fuego Chillies, a new 5×3 video slot themed around a Mexican street fiesta. The game ships with a feature-led Bonus Game and a top prize billed as a Grand Jackpot of x3,000 the total bet.
The Wild is a mariachi in a sombrero and substitutes for all symbols except the Bonus, BOOST, COLLECT, MULTI and Jackpot symbols. Spinomenal said five Wilds on a payline return x10 the bet, with four paying x2 and three paying x0.5, while three- and four-Wild combinations only pay when followed by a Bonus or Special Bonus symbol.
Six or more Bonus and Special Bonus symbols trigger the Bonus Game. Triggering symbols lock in place and the feature starts with three bonus spins; only Bonus and Special Bonus symbols can land, carrying prizes from x1 to x10 the total bet, and each new symbol resets the spin counter back to three.
During the feature, BOOST assigns a random value (x2, x3, x4, x5, x7 or x10) and adds it to every symbol on the reels, while MULTI applies a x2, x3 or x5 multiplier to all symbols before taking a value based on the chosen multiplier. COLLECT then totals the values of all Bonus symbols into a single prize, and a MYSTERY symbol can transform into a BOOST, MULTI, COLLECT or Jackpot symbol.
Jackpot symbols during the feature pay Mini (x20), Minor (x50) or Major (x150), while filling all 15 cells awards the Grand Jackpot of x3,000 the total bet. Spinomenal also said a Bonus Blast Feature can trigger at random in the base game to spread extra symbols toward the Bonus Game, and the title includes a Buy Feature for instant entry. Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “3 Fuego Chillies brings the fun of the fiesta straight to the reels. The three chilli features keep the Bonus Game sizzling and the x3,000 Grand Jackpot gives players plenty to celebrate. We think this one will go down a treat with slot fans everywhere.”

Sporting Risk launches SureSub player prop markets via Sportradar odds feed
The new Promotional Markets add substitution-enabled player props designed to transfer bets to replacement players during a match.
Sporting Risk has expanded its Promotional Markets suite with a new set of SureSub player prop markets, distributed via the Sportradar Unified Odds Feed.
The company said SureSub is designed to extend eligible player prop bets beyond substitutions by automatically transferring selections to the replacement player. Sporting Risk added that operators can customise the feature, including its branding and name, to fit their sportsbook UX.
Sporting Risk positioned the release as part of its wider Promotional Markets portfolio, which it said includes products such as 2Up and other enhanced settlement mechanics aimed at helping operators differentiate without relying on bonuses, free bets or price-led promotions.
Andy Phillips, Chief Business Development Officer at Sporting Risk, said: “Operators are constantly looking for new ways to stand out in increasingly competitive markets. Promotional Markets do exactly that. They give operators a differentiated betting experience that keeps customers engaged throughout the match, without relying on bonuses or free bet campaigns. SureSub is a natural addition to that portfolio. It’s a mechanic customers already understand, but we’ve expanded it across a much broader range of player prop markets. Combined with our distribution through Sportradar, operators can now roll out SureSub at a scale that simply hasn’t been possible before.”
Sporting Risk said the product can be delivered directly or through the Sportradar Unified Odds Feed, with deployment designed to work across existing sportsbook infrastructure and scale across multiple competitions and leagues.
