Award-winning software provider returns to action with feature-packed premium release

Having recently been named winner of the ‘Risig Star in Casino Innovation/Software’ category at the SBC Awards 2021, popular game provider Swintt is raising a glass to players this month with the release of their brand-new Cocktail Book slot.

The latest title in the in-demand software developers’ Premium Slot collection, Cocktail Book is a classic 5×3 game that features five fixed paylines and a thirst-quenching theme. Set in a tropical island paradise, the game invites players to mix up the perfect blend of fresh fruits, BAR symbols, liberty bells and lucky red sevens as they say “chin, chin” to maximum multipliers of 5,500x their bet.

While all base game winnings can be bet in a gamble feature that sees players guess the colour or suit of a hidden playing card to double or quadruple their current prize respectively, this is merely the aperitif in terms of the refreshing rewards that Cocktail Book can offer in its main Free Spins feature.

Activated whenever three or more Cocktail Book scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels, players will be whisked away to a new screen where they’ll have to choose from two fresh and fruity Free Spins recipes. Choosing the orange option awards 6-25 Free Spins with expanding wilds added to the reels, while choosing the purple option grants 8-12 Free Spins with an expanding mystery symbol.

Looking at the two Free Spins features in more detail, should players opt for orange they’ll be presented with a screen filled with ten coconuts. Clicking on any of them will reveal a number of Free Spins, and they can continue picking and adding games until one of the coconuts starts the feature. Once the bonus begins, any wilds that appear will expand to fill their reel and complete new paylines.

If players plump for purple, however, a bonus wheel with two rings will appear. Once clicked, the outer ring will spin and stop on a random base game symbol and the inner ring will select a number of Free Spins. Once the feature starts, whenever the previously selected symbol appears on the reels, it will expand to fill the entire column, with five expanding symbols triggering the Full Table maximum win.
To add the finishing touch to what is already a masterful bonus blend, should players land three of more subsequent scatter symbols during either of the Free Spins features, they’ll be able to pick more coconuts or spin the wheel again to prolong the round and potentially add further wins to their total.

David Mann, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “The start of the year can sometimes feel a bit gloomy, so we’re inviting players to get away from the cold and join us on a tropical island paradise as we serve up five reels of thirst-quenching fun in Cocktail Book.
“The latest game in our Premium Slot collection, Cocktail Book provides a blend of intuitive gameplay and fun features that a master mixologist would be proud of. With a maximum multiplier of 5,500x up for grabs, we’re sure the game will provide players with plenty of reasons to raise a toast this month.”

QCI’s co-founders weighed multiple investment offers over the past year before selecting Curve Partners as their growth partner. “For us, finding the right investment partner was critical,” said Dr. Ralph Thomas, Co-Founder and CEO of QCI“We engaged with several potential investors, but Curve Partners stood out with their understanding of our industry and their commitment to helping companies like ours scale responsibly.

Their reputations in the industry are unmatched, and Curve is proud to support them as the first institutional investor and board member.”

QCI’s recent growth and product diversification have been nothing short of remarkable. Key milestones over the past year include:

  • Global Expansion: QCI’s platform is now deployed in over 300 casino resorts worldwide, collectively managing more than $40 billion in annual gross gaming revenue markets.financialcontent.com. The company’s operational footprint spans 17 countries and 30 U.S. states, a reach that “cements the company’s position as a global leader in casino and resort intelligence” markets.financialcontent.com.

This acquisition expanded QCI’s product suite and capabilities markets.financialcontent.com, establishing QCI as a “powerhouse in the casino and resort data activation world” with deeper solutions for the fast-diversifying gaming industry markets.financialcontent.com.

“Having Curve Partners on board is a huge validation of what our team has built,” added Andrew Cardno, Co-Founder and CTO of QCI“Curve’s support will help us double down on our product roadmap and global expansion plans.

Feathers fly as a fearless duck dukes it out in a cyberpunk arcade in this exhilarating video slot!

Stakelogic has released its most action-packed slot to date with Turbo Duck, a high-octane title that blends intense gameplay with cinematic visuals and a winged hero who refuses to back down.

Set in a post-apocalyptic retro arcade, Turbo Duck follows Quack-9, a fearless duck mecha-pilot ready for action. As the gameplay unfolds, players join Quack-9 in the fight for control and massive multipliers.

Played across a 5-reel, 4-row grid with 15 fixed paylines, the game introduces a mix of Mystery Wilds, instant-win multipliers and three escalating Bonus Game modes.

Mystery Symbols land on reels 2 and 4, revealing either a Blue Wild, a Red Multiplier Wild up to 10x, or directional arrows that place additional Wilds nearby. During Free Spins, Blue Wilds can also award +2 extra Free Spins.

Landing three Bonus Symbols triggers 10 Free Spins and activates the Bonus Wheel, which determines one of three Free Spin variants: Bonus, Mega or Ultra. Each mode increases win potential through higher multiplier frequency and persistent Mystery Symbols. The most volatile mode, Ultra, removes all low-value multipliers and guarantees one high-value multiplier on every spin.

Multiplier Symbols appear in three tiers: Blue (2x–50x), Green (5x–100x), and Red (5x–500x with MAX WIN potential) and award instant prizes based on the base bet. The Turbo Blast feature, which can trigger on any spin, sees one to three multipliers onto the reels, with at least one guaranteed to be from the highest tier. When Multiplier symbols land on the reels Quack-9 will fire into life, destroying them for reveals that keep you on the edge of your seat.

For players who want to take control, Turbo Duck includes a Buy Bonus option with three entry levels, as well as the option to activate Super Stake™, doubling the chance of triggering Free Spins.

While the theme adds plenty of character, it’s the underlying math that drives the experience, with a carefully balanced mix of volatility, momentum and feature depth designed to keep players engaged.”
