PRAGMATIC PLAY RETURNS TO THE DUNES OF ANCIENT EGYPT IN MIGHT OF RA

Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the iGaming industry, welcomes players to the sun-scorched reels in its bold new release, Might of Ra.
Players who match three or more adjacent symbols across the six reels will be rewarded with a win, while fiery-eyed Phoenix, Stallion, Scorpion and Serpent symbols provide them with high value payouts worth up to 15x their bet.
The mighty Ra, God of the sun, order, kings and the sky, serves as the game’s only Wild symbol, while golden scarabs fulfil the role of Bonus symbol, which can only land on the second, third, fourth or fifth reels.
Whenever one or more Wild symbols hit, they can randomly transform into a reel full of Wilds, providing a multiplier worth 3x the bet that applies to all winning combinations that include the Wild symbol.
Landing three or more Bonus symbols will trigger the Free Spins feature, which awards players 15 free spins, and each time an Ankh symbol lands, it is collected as players look to gain better rewards.
Players can track their progress on a meter next to the reels, triggering additional rewards by collecting five or more Ankh symbols. Might of Ra offers users the chance to win a mammoth 22,500x in the base game and free spins feature.
It is possible to retrigger the feature by landing two, three, or four Bonus symbols, which awards an additional three, six, or nine free spins, respectively.
Might of Ra arrives hot on the heels of recent releases Elemental Gems Megaways™, The Ultimate 5, and Colossal Cash Zone™, which reside amongst a collection of over 200 HTML5 titles in Pragmatic Play’s award-winning games portfolio.
Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “Filled to the brim with extensive bonus features and modifiers, Might of Ra provides players with free spins and the opportunity to trigger big wins.
“Ancient Egypt remains a very popular theme with players, and we wanted to bring something exciting and new to operators and fans alike.”
Pragmatic Play currently produces up to five new slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino, Virtual Sports and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through one single API.

Paf employees donated €125,000

The Nordic gaming company Paf decided to give all employees the opportunity to donate €125,000 to various good causes, initiatives and projects. The causes were selected through a nomination and voting process by the employees.
All Paf employees were given the opportunity to nominate their own initiatives that they felt were worthy of Paf’s €125,000 donation. Once the nomination process was complete, employees were asked to vote for the initiatives, and it was the employees’ votes that determined which initiatives received the donation and how much of the sum was allocated to each project.
“It’s really important that everyone who works at Paf feels that our core mission is different and that it’s well worth working for. That’s why we wanted to involve the employees and give everyone a direct opportunity to determine the distribution of the donation,” says Paf’s CEO Christer Fahlstedt.
Paf’s basic purpose is to generate funds for the benefit of society. The annual profit is used as Paf funds for social, environmental, youth, sports and cultural purposes, among others.
Second year in a row
This is the second year in a row that Paf employees have been able to donate a sum of money to various good causes. Last year employees donated €100,000 and this year the amount was increased to €125,000.
“It was a great way to end last year and a good initiative to repeat this year. The donation is not part of Paf’s usual mission and purpose, but it reflects our overall core purpose in an excellent way,’ says Paf CEO Christer Fahlstedt.
The distribution of €125,000
When the employees gathered in December for the annual Christmas speech, the vote was taken and the result determined how the €125,000 would be distributed. The Employee vote gave causes for Ukraine the biggest donation and €40,000, followed by causes against cancer €25,000 and in third place causes for combating abuse of children €15.000.
1. €40.000 – Causes for Ukraine
