Friend becomes foe in Merlin and the Ice Queen Morgana
Play’n GO’s Merlin series continues to be a hit amongst players; we predict that this addition will be no different.
After her brother King Arthur’s coronation – Morgana flees Camelot. Determined to find his former apprentice, Merlin begins his search only to find a frozen wasteland. The Ice Queen has claimed this land as her own. Locals fear her power. But who is this wicked witch? Well, she’s no more than Merlin’s apprentice – Morgana.
This game sees an Expanding Wild Multiplier on the reels; a feature that players love. Before Free Spins start, a symbol is randomly selected which will become a Special Expanding Symbol throughout the session. Expanding triggers only if enough symbols for a win are present; they don’t need to be adjacent to create a win line.
Merlin’s staff serves as a Scatter Wild as he casts his spells across the reels. Morgana also plays a part on the reels as a Special Wild which can land one, two, or fully stacked symbols on one reel. Once fully stacked this symbol will activate the Multiplier.
Players will be able to follow the narrative through the clever use of changing backgrounds and reel visuals. Merlin starts outside of the Ice Queen’s palace making his way inside to confront Morgana. Paylines are highlighted by Merlin’s magic staff and Morgana casts an icy spell freezing the background with snow and icicles.
Head of Games Charlotte Miliziano said:
“Players love the Merlin series, we have already explored his relationship with the Lady of the Lake and wanted to dive deep into one of his more turbulent relationships. A little darker than its predecessor, Merlin and the Ice Queen Morgana embody the battle between good and evil.
“There’s another reason we enjoy working on these kinds of series. Like with Merlin, King Arthur and the gods of Norse mythology, new players already have some knowledge of these characters. They can fully immerse themselves in the narrative regardless of whether they’ve played our existing games.”

Reading Time: 2 minutes
B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming has launched its latest seafaring adventure, Sea of Spirits, a highly anticipated slot developed in collaboration with CasinoGrounds, one of the industry’s most influential community-driven streaming platforms.
The partnership marks a significant milestone for Push Gaming, combining the studio’s renowned innovation with CasinoGrounds’ direct player insight to craft an experience shaped by the community. Sea of Spirits fits seamlessly into the Push Originals category.
Set in a haunting underwater realm where ghostly captains guard the treasures of the deep, Sea of Spirits immerses players in a world of mystery, risk, and reward.
Every spin offers the promise of discovery through the new Frame and Activator mechanic, unique overlays that appear randomly on the reels. When triggered by one of three activator symbols, they increase anticipation and potential wins across 4,096 ways to win.
The game’s Frames, in bronze, silver, and gold tiers, upgrade through play, unlocking increasingly lucrative rewards. Persistent frame nudging keeps the tension high between spins. At the same time, the fan-favourite Coin Reveal feature makes a triumphant return with a powerful new twist: frame upgrades that elevate the excitement even further.
In the Bonus and Super Bonus rounds, sticky frames and tier upgrades create a sense of momentum and mastery as players pursue treasures guarded by restless spirits beneath the waves.
Meanwhile, Push Bet offers faster access to the game’s most lucrative features, giving players greater control over their journey.
George Fil, Director of Product Strategy at Push Gaming, said: “Working alongside CasinoGrounds has been an incredibly valuable experience.”
“Its understanding of player behaviour and streaming culture helped us refine every layer of Sea of Spirits, from its mechanics to its storytelling. It’s a true community-inspired slot.”
Daniel Giuffra, Brand Manager at CasinoGrounds, added: “Working with Push Gaming has allowed us to integrate some of its great mechanics with our unique streamer-first ideas. I’m excited to see what the community thinks about this one!”
