Week 2/2022 slot games releases

Here are this weeks latest slots releases!
Yggdrasil and ReelPlay are kicking off the year with a fun-filled fiesta in Money Mariachi Infinity Reels™. The high volatility hit sees a border town preparing for the iconic Dia de los Muertos celebrations, with the Magical Money Mariachi band creating melodic and celebratory party music to wake the dead. The entry game 3×4 reel grid contains the hugely popular Infinity Reels™ mechanic, which adds another reel and respin for every successful win, as well as an increasing multiplier.
Lady Luck Games invites players to let fate decide their destiny in Madame Clues, a mysterious one-reel slot set in the abandoned arcade of an amusement park. Those brave enough to gaze deep into the Fortune Teller’s crystal ball will see that this one-of-a-kind game displays just one symbol every time the reel is spun, awarding players up to 12x their bet during base gameplay. At any given time, one of two special symbols could appear courtesy of the Clairvoyant, these can lead to players winning up to 23,040x their bet.
Relax Gaming, invites players to join Alice on an unforgettable adventure to Plunderland, a world of curiosity and wonderment. This quirky, high-volatility fantasy title tasks players with registering winning clusters of symbols on a 7×7 set of reels, while also trying to trigger a host of memorable bonus features. A White Rabbit Wild symbol is present on every spin, and if it makes its way onto a designated hot spot it will expand to 2×2 or 5×5 in size. The White Rabbit Wild also features a multiplier that increases by one every time it is involved in a cluster win.
Fresh year, new mind-boggling games. Nolimit is kicking off the new year with a bang, and we’re in for a blast from the past with a sequel to the notoriously volatile Tombstone, which was launched back in 2019 and properly cemented xNudge® as a hugely rewarding mechanic. Tombstone R.I.P presents 5 reels with row setup as 23331, and the mechanics in this one are designed to give those that caused havoc a long and unpleasant experience; xNudge Wilds® and xSplit Wilds® will definitely put them in their place.
Blueprint Gaming’s first release of 2022, 7’s Deluxe: Fortune Spins, builds on the success of a classic with the introduction of a proven feature to deliver an exciting new gameplay. The addition of the popular Fortune Spins feature ensures the game’s longevity continues with its loyal following and marks the latest iteration of the much-loved Reel Time Gaming (RTG) title that Blueprint successfully adapted from retail to online. Fortune Spins, first made popular in Blueprint’s hit slot Luck O’ The Irish, allows players to experience the 7’s Deluxe gameplay across four reel sets simultaneously when activated at 20x bet.
Kalamba Games invites players on a hunt for clues and riches in thrilling new slot Holmes: Reel Detective. Join Detective Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson as they set off on an extraordinary slot adventure through Victorian London. There is nothing elementary about the remarkable features in this title, with graphics and sound that are sure to engage players of all demographics as they assist the renowned duo in finding clues to unlock big wins. Kalamba’s K-Cash feature is triggered by matching fingerprint symbols left by the game’s villain with the famous detective’s magnifying glass. Matching multiple symbols can award a win of up to 200x a player’s bet.
Pragmatic Play, invites players on an aquatic journey filled with Free Spins, Wilds and Scatters in brand new release, Wild Depths™.

Industry Awards
Slotsoo Awards 2025: Celebrating Excellence Across Casinos and Game Providers

Summer is here and it is time for Slotsoo’s signature celebration of the iGaming industry. The Slotsoo Casino Awards return for its third edition, continuing the tradition of highlighting operators who excel in delivering a top-tier player experience. This year also marks an exciting expansion with the inaugural Slotsoo Game Provider Awards, giving long-overdue recognition to the creators of great slots.
The New Game Provider Awards and the Winners
Game providers are sometimes overshadowed by casinos, but in reality, both are equally important to the online casino experience. That’s why Slotsoo is proud to shine a spotlight on the studios behind the reels. The winners of Slotsoo’s first provider-focused awards were announced on 24 July 2025, and the honors went to:
- The Machine MVP – Pragmatic Play
- Bonus Buyer – Bullshark Games
- Volatility Virtuoso – Wazdan
- Jackpot Jumbo – Mancala Gaming
- Symphony Spinner – Gamzix
- Reel Renegade – Nolimit City
- Promising Prodigy – Slammer Studios
Please visit the Slotsoo Game Provider Awards page for detailed descriptions of each trophy and the motivations behind the winners.
The Anatomy of Slotsoo’s Trophies: Where Fun Meets Serious Recognition
At Slotsoo, each trophy is whimsical by design but grounded in real player values, making the Slotsoo Awards both entertaining and insightful. Every category has a clear purpose, recognizing what truly matters in iGaming today.
At the core of each awards lineup is a main trophy: The Gambling GOAT honors the top-performing casino operator, while The Machine MVP celebrates the best overall game provider. Surrounding these main awards are a collection of supporting trophies, spotlighting specific areas of excellence, from fast withdrawals and fun bonuses to volatility and winning potential.
These award categories offer a chance for actors who crush it in a certain area to be recognized, even if they don’t dominate across the board. Just like other iGaming awards, Slotsoo includes a category for newcomers, encouraging fresh talent and pushing established names to keep innovating.
The timing of the awards is also a deliberate choice. Markus Björk, head writer at Slotsoo, explains the team’s reasoning:
“After a hectic Winter and Spring packed with iGaming events, June and July offer a rare chance for the industry to slow down and reflect on the year so far. Let’s enjoy the cucumber season and appreciate what’s been achieved. This is when you can harvest the rewards of your hard work before autumn arrives with new challenges and opportunities.”
The Winning Casino Operators 2025
The Slotsoo Casino Awards 2025 took place in June, and these were the seven winners:
- The Gambling GOAT – Betizy
- The Bonus Buff – Sugarino
- The Loyalty Lord – Wisho
- The Withdrawal Wizard – Vauhdikas
- The Gamification Guru – Arctic Casino
- The Payout Professor – Wolfy Casino
- The Noisy Newcomer – Lunar Spins
This was the third time Slotsoo held the casino awards for its English-language site targeting the EU market in general. During the same period, the dedicated awards for the Finnish market, Slotsoo Kasinogaala 2025, celebrated its second year. These awards consist of seven trophies equivalent to the English ones, plus an eighth trophy dedicated to the casino operator with the best slot streaming offering.
The Nordic country is undergoing big changes, with a new gambling legislation and a licensing system planned to be introduced by 1 January 2027. The future will tell how this will affect the structure and categories of the awards.
