Yggdrasil and Bang Bang Games add spectacular sequel Super Cash Drop GigaBlox™
Yggdrasil, the leading worldwide publisher of online gambling content, and Bang Bang Games have reunited for the feature-filled sequel to Super Cash Drop.
Super Cash Drop GigaBlox™ sees Yggdrasil’s vaunted Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM) brought to the hugely popular original hit, with high volatility and huge win potential of up to 7,024x.
Base play gives players a 6×4 grid, with 40 paylines, as well as a guaranteed GigaBlox™ symbol on every spin, with a minimum size of 2×2.
On any spin, the reels can expand in height to up to 6×6, adding more paylines as well as enhancing the potential height of a GigaBlox™ symbol to fill the entire reel.
Super Stretch Wilds can also land, replacing all symbols on a single reel with wilds. If more than one lands, a win multiplier is also activated to enhance the chances of a big win. These can remain sticky through locked wilds, which will trigger a respin. This can continue if more wilds land on the repsin, until either the entire matrix is filled, or an unsuccessful spin occurs.
The Super Free Spins is triggered when five or more bonus symbols land. During this mode, all spins are played on the maximum reel size of 6×6, while all low paying symbols are removed.
Each wild that lands is a locked wild, remaining sticky, while respins can also occur, as with the same mode in base play. Players can also gain an extra free spin by landing a scatter symbol, with no upper limit.
In markets that allow it, players can also progress straight to free spins by purchasing it for 75x their stake.
Super Cash Drop GigaBlox™ is the latest title by Bang Bang Games to join the YG Masters portfolio, following Jumbo Jellies.
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 & Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “Super Cash Drop was a fantastic addition to the YG Masters offering and we’re very pleased to work with Bang Bang Games again to enhance it with our hugely popular GigaBlox™ mechanic.
“Our GEMs offering allows for increased engagement through player mechanics and this is yet another example of them being used in an exciting fashion.”
Frank McPolin, Managing Director at Bang Bang Games, said: “Super Cash Drop GigaBlox™ sees us take one of our most iconic games and add a thrilling mechanic on top, as well as giving players the chance to win up to 7,024x on a single spin.
“With locking wilds, expanding paylines and a lucrative free spins mode, there’s plenty to look forward to in our latest release.”

GambleAware Warns Outdated Gambling Advertising and Marketing Regulations are Leaving Children at Risk of Gambling Harm
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Regulations for online gambling marketing must urgently be brought into the digital age, a new report from the charity GambleAware has warned.
The report reveals that despite gambling being an age-restricted product, children are being exposed to gambling marketing online, before they reach an age at which they can critically evaluate it. This is leading to gambling being normalised and portrayed as “risk-free”, which increases the risk of them experiencing gambling harm.
Gambling harms are becoming an increasing part of children’s lives, with previous research finding that in 2024, around 85,000 children in Britain were experiencing harm from their own gambling, a figure which has doubled since 20233. GambleAware’s new report highlights how seeing gambling marketing and content, online and via social and streaming platforms, could be encouraging children to gamble and contributing to the number experiencing harm.
The new report calls out poor regulation of gambling marketing online, highlighting how more needs to be done to ensure the rules reflect the unique challenges presented by the digital age and urges a reduction in self-regulation to protect children from being exposed to age-restricted gambling content. Alongside this, GambleAware is also calling for mandatory health warnings to be put on all gambling marketing so people are aware of the risks and support available.
Specific changes to help protect children could include moves to hold online platforms to greater account and ensuring existing government programmes, such as the Online Safety Act and Online Advertising Programme, more directly address gambling marketing and content online. Alongside this, other recommendations include the alignment and strengthening of online safety regulatory powers and programmes.
GambleAware research also found strong public support from children and adults for changes to gambling marketing and advertising regulation. Around four in five children (79%) say they want more rules around gambling content and advertising on social media. Alongside this, over seven in ten adults also agree, saying they want more regulation around gambling advertising on social media (74%) and gambling related content on social media (70%).
Anna Hargrave, GambleAware Transition CEO, said: “Gambling operators invest significant resources into online marketing because it works at getting people to gamble more. This has resulted in children and young people being exposed to gambling content online before an age at which they can critically evaluate it and understand the risks that come with it.
“The current regulations covering gambling marketing and advertising online were designed before most children had easy access to the internet. Urgent action is needed to update these rules and bring them into the digital age to help keep children and young people safe from gambling harm.”

SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator Marks Four Years of Growth and Global Expansion
Reading Time: 2 minutes
The SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator, an award-winning player engagement solution, celebrates its fourth anniversary, delivering strong business results and expanding into new regulated markets.
Since its launch in 2021, the SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator has become a trusted engagement and retention tool for operators worldwide. By the beginning of Q4 2025, the solution powers over 100 active brands, with more than 520 jackpot campaigns launched and 68,000+ jackpot hits. These numbers reflect growing adoption and consistent performance across regulated markets.
In early 2025, the SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator obtained certifications in Brazil, Peru, and Estonia, strengthening its position in Latin America and Europe. These approvals allow operators in both markets to integrate the tool in full compliance with regulatory and technical standards.
Angelina Stasiuk, Head of Business Line at SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator, shares: “Four years of consistent growth show how powerful engagement mechanics can be when built on flexibility and trust. Our recent expansion into new regulated markets marks an exciting new chapter, giving regional operators access to the same reliable and engaging jackpot solutions that have already proven successful worldwide. We’re proud to see the Jackpot Aggregator evolve into a solution that brings real value to both operators and their audiences.”
The flagship Prime Network Jackpot remains the key feature of the Jackpot Aggregator. The tool unites multiple operators under a shared prize pool, driving some of the industry’s most impressive payouts. One of its campaigns paid out a record-breaking €1,368,013, while a recent win in September 2025 saw a lucky player take home €758,262.71. The growing scale of the network confirms its power to increase engagement and deliver immersive gaming experiences for players worldwide.
Rosaria Freitas, Director of Product at Kirgo Casino, comments: “Congratulations to SOFTSWISS on four years of the Jackpot Aggregator. At Kirgo, we emphasise real play, real rewards, and zero distractions. This partnership enhances what our players can win without compromising that focus. By combining our local jackpots with the Prime Network, we’re offering Kirgo players exclusive community rewards and access to major shared prizes: simple, transparent, and designed for real enjoyment value.”
The SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator continues to evolve as a cornerstone of player engagement strategy. This year, the solution introduced a major update – the Paid Participation Campaigns feature, which expands entertainment options for players and creates new revenue opportunities for operators. In this format, players contribute an entry fee to join jackpots, prize drops, multi-prizes, or even the Prime Network Jackpot. The feature also encourages closer collaboration with game providers, driving mutual promotion and long-term player engagement.
