The goddess Inari casts her spell in Play’n GO’s latest release, Tale of Kyubiko
The goddess Inari casts her spell in Play’n GO’s latest release, Tale of Kyubiko.
A mischievous spirit appears to late-night travellers, leading them to its lair. But who is this wily creature? She goes by the name Inari, a shapeshifting goddess who can take on the form of both a human and a fox. Follow her, and you may be partial to a share of her treasures.
This game is designed beautifully. From the art style to the way the characters move on the reels. The background scenery and Inari transform and evolve before the player as winnings are accumulated for immersive and dynamic gameplay.
The concept takes inspiration from Japanese folklore; the deity Inari is said to symbolise prosperity and worldly success in some Asian cultures. Player’s will associate Inari taking on her fox form as being a good omen.
Inari’s Fortune, more commonly known as the nudge feature, may trigger when the Stacked Wild has partially landed on any reels. If the Stacked Wild covers the reel, Inari’s Fortune will nudge the Stacked Wild to land fully on the reel.
When the Stacked Wild lands and a winning combination is formed, this triggers Inari’s Dance – known as the Travelling Wild. The Multiplier increases and the Stacked Wild travels to the next reel where an automatic spin is triggered. This cycle is repeated until no more wins are formed after the re-spin. The next round starts when the player hits Re-spin and the Multiplier resets.
Head of Games, Charlotte Miliziano, said:
“Tale of Kyubiko is a fabulous example of high entertainment value. There is a rich narrative that carries throughout gameplay; our clear focus on storytelling and creating the visuals to complement can be seen through Inari – players can physically see her shapeshift into her human form as they play. It’s very cool.”

Exploding Wilds and increasing multipliers unlock 10,000x win potential
Independent slots studio Thunderkick has launched Hot Turkey, its latest holiday-themed release that channels Christmas spirit and unwraps maximum wins up to 10,000x.
Candy canes, mistletoe, and Christmas gifts adorn the reels of this 7×7 Cluster Pays slot, where the Avalanche mechanic returns to boost payouts by replacing all symbols from winning combinations.
Every Avalanche win drops an Exploding Wild onto the grid, which either contributes to a new cluster or clears the surrounding 3×3 area, leaving behind 2x multipliers. Should another Exploding Wild detonate over an existing multiplier, the value is doubled up to 128x, greatly enhancing wins.
Landing three Hot Scatters triggers the bonus round, with an initial 10 free spins awarded. During free spins, multipliers left behind by Exploding Wilds remain sticky for the duration of the feature, paving the way for 10,000x maximum wins.
Hot Turkey is the most recent addition to Thunderkick’s expanding holiday-themed slot collection, joining Midas Golden Touch Christmas Edition and the Esqueleto Explosivo trilogy. The provider continues to diversify its product portfolio, emphasising its desire to create compelling games that resonate with a global player base.
Mike Collins, Game Product Owner at Thunderkick, said: “Christmas is the most widely celebrated global holiday, and we’ve attempted to leverage some of that famous festive cheer in Hot Turkey.
“This game sees the return of several fan-favourite features, including Avalanche wins, Exploding Wilds, and Sticky Multipliers. We have combined these with huge 10,000x win potential, themed icons and a merry backing track to create a title we are sure will bring players joy.”
