Yggdrasil and Bang Bang Games offer players a sweet treat in latest release Jumbo Jellies
Yggdrasil and Bang Bang Games are closing the curtain on a successful year with what looks to be their sweetest slot to date, Jumbo Jellies.
This vibrant treat-filled title transports players to a sugary fantasy land that offers players massive win streaks via the Jumbo Rows feature, which occurs whenever a matching pair of jellies land on the same win line. These symbols turn wild, and the entire row becomes jumbo as a win multiplier climbs up by +1 after every respin.
The sugar rush doesn’t end there as Jumbo Jellies also boasts a lucrative scatter game that sees scatter symbols worth +2 free spins locked and held on the reels. This can award players up to 18 free spins in total with Jumbo Rows that do not reset.
Released via the YG Masters program, Jumbo Jellies is the latest addition to the stellar selection of new slots developed by fledgling studio Bang Bang Games.
The title is powered by GATI, with Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to produce consistently cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.
Stuart McCarthy, Head of Product and Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “It’s extremely exciting to watch an innovative young studio flourish and grow, and judging by the quality of Jumbo Jellies, I think we’re going to see Bang Bang Games go from strength-to-strength in 2022.
“We genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better game to see out the year and we’re confident that players will enjoy this wonderfully designed slot just as much as we do.”
Frank McPolin, Managing Director at Bang Bang Games, said: “Differentiating yourself from other suppliers as a brand-new studio can be a real challenge, but we think we’ve hit the sweet spot with Jumbo Jellies.
“Players are going to fall in love with this game as soon as they get a taste of the delightfully fun bonus features and mechanics that can see them win more than 5,000x their stake.”

Swintt launches Wild Chicken slot with roaming wilds and free spins
Premium release features a 5×3 layout with 10 paylines, a Risk gamble option, and a stated max win of 10,000x.
Swintt has released Wild Chicken, a new Premium slot that introduces roaming wilds and a free spins feature, with the supplier stating a maximum win of up to 10,000x the bet.
The game runs on a 5×3 reel layout with 10 fixed paylines. Its key mechanic is a “roaming rooster wild” that remains on the reels and shifts one position to the left after each spin, potentially contributing to multiple wins.
Free spins are triggered by landing three or more grain sack scatter symbols in the base game. Players receive 10, 15 or 20 free spins depending on the number of triggering scatters, and any wilds on the reels add one extra free spin while they remain present. Swintt also says collecting four additional grain sacks increases the wild’s size from one to three symbol positions, before it becomes an expanding symbol that fills its reel when it appears. Three or more grain sacks can retrigger the feature.
Wild Chicken also includes an optional Risk feature, where players can attempt to double winnings by guessing the colour of a hidden playing card, up to the game’s maximum payout.
Anthony Dalla-Giacoma, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “Combining classic visuals and sounds with a progressive prize mechanic, Wild Chicken is the Premium release that players have been waiting for. With unique rooster wilds roaming the reels during the base game and expanding in size during the main feature, there’s a ton of excitement to be had on every spin, and a maximum jackpot of 10,000x means its sure to be a popular entry in all operators’ line-ups.”
