PRAGMATIC PLAY ESCAPES TO THE COUNTRY IN BARN FESTIVAL

Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the iGaming industry, takes players down to the farm on a countryside escape in latest slot release, Barn Festival.
Barn Festival is played across a 6×5 grid, with at least eight matching farmyard-inspired symbols needed to unlock a win. These are then removed thanks to a tumble feature that replaces missing symbols to generate additional wins.
Money Symbols that land in conjunction with these wins carry a predetermined multiplier value ranging from 1x to 500x. Landing three of these transforms their values into win multipliers, which are then added together and used to multiply the value of the current or next winning spin.
Four of these Money Symbols unlocks Barn Festival’s respin round. Here, the user is awarded three respins, which is reset upon landing additional Money Symbols or any feature triggering symbol present in the round.
These feature triggering symbols consist of: Add value, Multiply, and Collect symbols, along with a persistent variant of each. Additionally, an Unlock symbol can be used to expand the game grid by one extra reel, and is instrumental in unlocking Barn Festival’s incredible 20,000x max win.
Barn Festival’s release follows hot recent hits like Tic Tac Take, Rainbow Gold™, and Wild Beach Party™, which reside amongst a collection of over 200 products in Pragmatic Play’s award-winning games portfolio.
Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “Barn Festival is a vibrant and fun addition to our ever-growing catalogue of high-quality slots.
“It provides an entirely new experience for players by augmenting respin features previously found in the bonus round of our smash hit Empty the Bank™, taking them to previously unseen heights.”
Pragmatic Play currently produces up to six new slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through one single API.
