Play’n GO serve players a game they can really sink their teeth into with Fat Frankies.
Fat Frankie serves the best food in town, but he’s looking to put his name on the culinary map. Help him show that his Food Truck has what it takes. Orders, tips, reviews are the key to success. Sounds like a piece of cake, right?
Following the success of Play’n GO games like Tales of Asgard: Freya’s Wedding, Play’n GO are trucking down the comedy route once more as they add another humorous game to their ever-growing diverse portfolio.
Featuring a strong narrative, players have clear goals in their sights from the get-go. The aim of the game is to build up Frankie’s reputation as having the best food truck in town. There are four ways that they can do this through the four features that are triggered in the Bonus Rounds.
In Burger Bonanza, Burgers will stick to the reels and reward a re-spin, this will continue until no more burgers land on the reels, then the prize money will pay out.
Flip the Tip sees players awarded with three coins which they flip into a tip jar, if the coin falls into the jar it will increase the Multiplier. If the coin doesn’t make it into the jar, the players loses that coin. Should they get the next coin into the jar, they’ll get that coin back on their three. This round finished when the players reaches the max Multiplier or loses all three coins.
Greasy Wilds shows an animated Frankie appear and spill grease all over the reels! This leads to there being one to five Wild reels on the grid.
Finally, there’s the Five Star Free Spins. Each time the Five Star symbol lands on the reels it will increase the Win Multiplier and add two extra spins.
Head of Games, Charlotte Miliziano said:
“Fat Frankie’s is the tastiest game in town. We’re in the business of entertainment and this narrative really lends itself to the four features. It’s cool to see how Frankie starts out to where he finishes by the end of the game with the player helping him on the road to success.
“Trust us, it was as much fun to make as it is to play. Players will be hungry for more”

SoftConstruct unveils RecSys AI game recommendation system at AIBC Eurasia
In an iGaming Real Talk interview in Dubai, the firm says the tool reads player emotion and context to guide operator actions.
SoftConstruct AI has unveiled RecSys, an AI Game Recommendation System, during an exclusive iGaming Real Talk interview recorded at AIBC Eurasia in Dubai on Thursday 30th April.
Mushegh Khachatryan, Chief AI Officer at SoftConstruct AI, said RecSys is designed to move beyond traditional recommendation models by interpreting player emotions in real time and accounting for context, with the goal of suggesting “the next best action” for operators. “You can understand your customer’s emotions in real time and suggest the next best action. We are building intelligent systems which can reason and act.”
Khachatryan said SoftConstruct built an AI Center of Excellence by hiring talent from outside the iGaming sector, and described RecSys as part of “production-ready agentic AI” intended to support personalised campaigns and decision automation. Surya Palli, host of iGaming Real Talk, said: “SoftConstruct is essentially building a Netflix-style personalised experience for the iGaming industry, where every player gets a lobby made just for them.”
Responsible gaming was also discussed, with the company claiming AI can detect risky behaviour faster and more consistently than human teams, and recommend timely breaks while balancing player protection with sustainable growth.
Khachatryan also stressed the need for explainable, controlled deployment. “AI should help teams perform five times better rather than replace them… Without proper boundaries, short-term momentum boosts with AI can actually hurt your company in the long term.” The company said operators can manage campaigns, personalisation and risk through chat interfaces, with at least 85% accuracy “from the first interactions,” and directed viewers to the full interview on the iGaming Real Talk YouTube channel.
