INSPIRED LAUNCHES THREE XMAS GAMES TO GET PLAYERS IN THE FESTIVE SPIRIT: BIG CHRISTMAS PRESENT, MERRY CHRISTMAS MEGAWAYS & CHRISTMAS CASH SPINS
Inspired Entertainment, Inc is pleased to announce the launch of its latest Christmas-themed online and mobile slot games: Big Christmas Present and Christmas Cash Spins
Santa Claus is coming to town with Big Christmas Present, a 6×4 reel, 50-win line slot game. Combining the elements of a classic slot with an innovative bonus mechanic, Big Christmas Present will have players on the edge of their seats to win big! Offering players, a fun and engaging iGaming experience, Big Christmas Present is a Christmas-themed version of Inspired’s successful hit, Big Spin Bonus
The Big Christmas Present Bonus round awards the player between one and five Big Spins, which are spins of 20x or more, via the game’s Pick Me feature, ensuring guaranteed wins during the bonus round, for all players. During the Bonus, sticky wilds build up increasing the chance of a Big Win. The player’s goal is to accumulate as many sticky wilds and wins as possible before using up all their Big Spins.
Merry Christmas Megaways brings the joy of the festive season together with the popular Megaways game mechanic for an iGaming treat! Brimming with thrilling cascading wins and vivid mystery symbols, Merry Christmas Megaways is set to be a mega hit with fans of festive slot games.
Players can enjoy the Free Spins bonus round upon activating four or more scatters. The game’s Free Spins features unlimited multipliers that increase each time a winning cascade occurs.
Combining the thrill of iGaming with the joyful spirit of the festive season is Christmas Cash Spins, a 5×3 reel, 25-win line slot game. Featuring a Lock and Spin mechanic, this Christmas-themed slot game is enhanced with wheels that combine for big prize potential.
Six or more wheel symbols in view, during the base game, will trigger the Christmas Cash Spins Bonus, which grants the player three lives to add more wheels. If the wheels form into a 2×2 or 3×3, the symbols will morph into bigger wheels with better values. Should the player fill all reels, a Mega wheel will award them a big cash prize!
Claire Osborne, Vice President of Interactive at Inspired, said: “We’re delighted to be kick-starting the festive period with a strong line-up of Christmas titles. All three games incorporate a festive theme into our best math models, with diverse mechanics in each game to engage a variety of different players. As always, we pride ourselves on being ‘the home of the seasonal game’.”
“Big Christmas Present is the perfect game for the regular bonus hit player. With its unique bonus mechanic, used previously on Big Spin Bonus, this game packs a punch. The homely Christmas backdrop of Merry Christmas Megaways displays all the colours of yuletide warmth, set to a festive soundtrack to put fans of Megaways titles in the holiday spirit. Combining colourful gingerbread symbols, a white wintery backdrop, festive jingles and sparkles aplenty, Christmas Cash Spins will delight fans of classic slot games. It offers an exciting lock and spin mechanic plus vibrant wheels to offer big cash pay-outs.
“We now have a total of six festive slots wrapped up for our operator partners, including: Christmas Cash Pots and Santa King Megaways

Leeds-based casino comparison platform spotlights its Recommendation Engine and Member Zone in exclusive ITVX placement.
Comparasino has launched a three-month Broadcaster Video on Demand (BVOD) advertising campaign running exclusively on ITVX, starting Tuesday 14 April, 2026. The Leeds-based online casino comparison platform said the campaign will run across ITVX premium prime-time programming and hit shows.

The company said the creative focuses on its proprietary Recommendation Engine, positioning it as an alternative to static casino list formats. Comparasino said the tool asks users for preferences such as bonuses, payment methods and minimum deposits, then returns matches from UK Gambling Commission (UKGC)-licensed brands.
Comparasino also pointed to its free-to-join Member Zone, which allows users to save preferences and a list of matches. The company said the portal’s automation engine surfaces new matches in real time as additional casino partners are added, and that members can receive brand-launch news and profile-based bonus offers.
Martyn Hannah, Co-founder and CEO of Comparasino, said: “Advertising on ITVX is a transformative step for us. For too long, the online casino search process has been a ‘one size fits all’ experience. Our mission is to humanise that journey by putting the player’s specific needs first.
“By launching this three-month campaign on a platform as prestigious as ITVX, we’re not just building brand awareness, we are showing the UK public that there is a smarter, safer and more tailored way to play.”
Comparasino said all brands featured on its platform are licensed by the UK Gambling Commission, positioning compliance and player protection as central to its UK-facing proposition.

New category-level analysis breaks down non-branded iGaming demand by vertical across France, Brazil, India, Italy and Switzerland.
Blask says lottery-related queries account for around 78% of total gambling search demand in France, outweighing online casino (~10%) and live dealer, betting and poker (each ~4%). The company positions the data as evidence that sports betting is not the primary driver of gambling demand in every market.
Blask said the figures come from non-branded search data and are part of a new category-level analysis feature designed to break down demand across verticals and subcategories within each market. The tool is intended to help operators compare player intent across jurisdictions, including “lottery in France, football betting in Brazil, or culturally driven formats in India.”
Outside France, Blask’s data shows Brazil is more betting-led, with online betting at ~52% of demand, which the company attributes largely to football. Lottery represents ~25%, fantasy sports ~11%, while casino (~6%) and live dealer (~2%) remain smaller segments.
India is described as more evenly distributed, with lottery at ~35% and live dealer at ~29%, and online casino, betting and fantasy each at roughly 10%. In Europe, Italy’s demand is reported as seasonally influenced by football, with fantasy sports leading at ~37%, while Switzerland is presented as casino-first, with online casino at ~38%.
Across the markets analysed, Blask said two themes recur: older categories often remain the biggest, and regulation heavily shapes demand. Where certain verticals are restricted, the company said interest tends to shift into adjacent or offshore segments rather than disappearing.
