Wizard Games unveils brand new mechanic in Teddy’s Tavern

Aspire Global’s Wizard Games has launched a St Patrick’s Day game with a twist in Teddy’s Tavern, a major release that features an exciting new mechanic, DigiDrop.
The attractive three-reel, one-row title, set inside a classic Irish pub, has a simplified approach that does away with the standard paylines and ways as players are invited to enjoy some jovial, Emerald isle-style hospitality.
Instead, a set of unique symbols featuring numbers drop across the reels to create an easy-to-understand multiplier. For example, if the player lands a 0, 5 and 4 combination, they pick up 54x their stake. Should they land a 10, 0 and 0, then that would represent a huge 1,000x prize.
Additionally, non-winning spins have a chance of triggering respins across all three reels in Lucky Respins mode, while three Scatters triggers 10 Free Spins, with the opportunity of retriggers – enough to make anyone dance a jig of joy. In certain markets, players can purchase the feature with a Buy option across several Free Spins modes.
Teddy’s Tavern is a medium to high volatility game, with three different levels of RTP – 88%, 94% and 96%.
Joey Hurtado, Managing Director of Games at Wizard Games, said: “St Patrick’s Day is a major date in the online gaming calendar and this year, we were determined to make our mark on the occasion.
“This is exactly what we have achieved with Teddy’s Tavern. The new mechanic we have developed is easy to understand and gives players an instant visualisation of what they have won. We are confident that this landmark launch – our biggest to date – will prove to be a massive hit with our partners and their players across the world.”
Deane Hendricks, Chief Operations Officer at Wizard Games, said: “In a short space of time since launching, Wizard Games has already left its mark on the industry with its innovative approach to slot development.
“The DigiDrop mechanic within Teddy’s Tavern is sure to be a hit with players old and new and fits the bill perfectly in terms of engagement around St Patrick’s Day.”

Not Just Data: A Record of RocketPlay Player Voices

In iGaming, reports often highlight numbers — deposits, conversion rates, retention, and other performance indicators. But behind these figures lies another equally important story: how players experience fun, form habits, and integrate games into their daily lives. This article looks at that side of gaming, with RocketPlay’s recent community project offering an example.
This year, RocketPlay Casino launched a project to better understand how players approach online gaming and add fun to their daily life. The goal was to explore the perception of online gaming not through statistics alone, but by hearing directly from the community.
The starting point was a gap the team noticed in existing industry reports: while numbers and performance metrics are widely available, there was little data on how players themselves describe their habits and approaches to fun. To address this, RocketPlay prepared a survey and shared it with its community.
Within several weeks, approximately 1500 responses were collected. The input varied in form: some participants wrote just a few lines about how they like spending evenings playing, while others submitted long, structured notes of their gameplay experience — almost like personal guides.
Some respondents swore by the particular time of spinning during the day. Many tied their approach to personal rituals, favorite slots, or small traditions. No two answers were the same, and together they showed how many ways there are to approach fun through games.
“We were amazed by how open and thoughtful our community was,” says Alex Martin, PR Manager at RocketPlay. “The honesty and detail went far beyond what we expected, and we’re grateful for their openness. I believe this gave us an even deeper connection with our community, turning stories into insights we can measure.”
Each answer felt like a depiction of the modern gaming experience — how different people add fun, mix it with luck, and turn play into enjoyment. Having such a wealth of insights, the team realized they had created something like a collective and warm memory of the fun time – dozens of tips, hundreds of personal stories, and countless small details were taken together.
At the start, RocketPlay did not intend to publish anything from the dialogue with players. But the team decided to keep these warm reflections for themselves and friends, so the answers were brought together in one collection — the RocketWisdom book.
At this stage, RocketPlay does not plan to make the book publicly available. Still, the team is considering different ways to keep the material connected to the community — perhaps through future collaborations or special projects. For now, the collection remains an exclusive record of how players themselves describe their play, leaving space for new formats and ideas ahead.
For RocketPlay, the key insight was clear: talk with your players — they сould bring inspiration behind every activity you launch. Ask questions, listen to their stories, and you’ll discover more than numbers can show. This dialogue became a record of how people enjoy gaming — their stories and habits will inspire future community projects. Because behind every device there is always a person.
For some, gaming is like a quiet morning coffee, a walk with their dog, or the joy of planting something new in the garden. For others, it’s a way to unwind after work, connect with friends across the world, or simply add a small spark of joy to the day. Data and numbers give the industry direction, but it’s emotions and everyday rituals that make it truly meaningful and alive.
