Unwrap sweet wins with Candy Wild Bonanza Hold and Spin from Stakelogic
In-demand developer’s latest title is packed full of tasty bonus treats including Wilds, Multipliers, Free Spins, Prize Picks, Hold and Spin and Buy Bonus
Stakelogic, the developer of chart-topping online casino content, is promising players some sweet, sweet wins in its latest slot release, Candy Wild Bonanza Hold and Spin.
Players are faced with an endless supply of cookies, candy and gummy bears, and they can also take a bite out of the Chocolate Scatters that contain even more treats and prizes.
Wins are paid based on the number of matching symbols that are in view with a max win potential of up to 20,000x the player’s bet.
Candy Wild Bonanza Hold and Spin allows players to unwrap Stakelogic’s innovative Super Stake feature, which is essentially a side bet that increases the chance of the game’s bonus being triggered and the player landing insane win combinations.
In Candy Wild Bonanza Hold and Spin, this sees Multiplier symbols land during the base game which improves the likelihood that the Hold and Spin game becomes activated.
The Multiplier value is displayed on the symbols and Multiplies the total win. Multiplier values range from x2 all the way up to x100.
Players will want to find the Scatter symbols as once they bite through them the Hold and Spin feature plays out. Three to six prizes are awarded before the Hold and Spin Feature begins. The prize awards are randomly placed on the empty 6×6 grid. The number of prizes awarded in the beginning of the Hold and Spin feature depends on the number of Scatter Symbols that landed in the base game.
Of course, the Hold and Spin feature is where the best candy big wins can be found. It starts with three Respins and every time a symbol lands the number of Respins resets to three. Symbols that can land while the feature is active include:
Prize symbols – revealing a value which is a Multiplier of the bet
Multiplier symbols – revealing a Multiplier that Multipliers each symbol except the Collector symbol
Collector symbols – adds the values of all the other symbols
Mini prize – awards x30 the player’s bet
Minor prize – awards x100 the player’s bet
Major prize – awards x500 the player’s bet
If the whole grid is full and all 36 positions are covered then the Grand prize of x1,000 the player’s bet is awarded on top of all other winnings.
If that wasn’t enough to get players heading straight to the Stakelogic sweet shop, Candy Wild Bonanza Hold and Spin also comes with a Buy Bonus feature which in this case is Hold and Spin with choice of how many Scatters they wish to trigger the feature.
Olga Bajela, CCO at Stakelogic, said: “If you have a sweet tooth, then Candy Wild Bonanza Hold and Spin is certainly the slot for you. Candy, cookies and gummy bears are in abundance here, but so too is the big win potential.
This slot is packed full of features and bonuses that will give players a sugar rush while also allowing them to unwrap some potentially gob-stopping wins. So, what are you waiting for – head to the candy store and enjoy the many treats that Candy Wild Bonanza Hold and Spin has to offer.”

As summer reaches its peak, so do the opportunities for operators partnering with Spinmatic. The premium Slot developer has launched two new exclusive offers as part of its ongoing Rock the Month campaign – a high-impact promotional series featuring targeted incentives, exclusive discounts and seasonal themes designed to support long-term operator growth.
After a strong debut in July with Fruit Fiesta and Summer Splash, Rock the Month has quickly become a key initiative for many partners, offering unique commercial advantages each month, exclusively to Spinmatic clients.
For August, the provider turns up the heat with two new offers: Summer Crash and Freespin Hype. Both are available to apply for until July 25 and designed to help operators during the summer’s most critical weeks.
This August’s promotions offer Spinmatic’s partners the chance to unlock up to 60% off in Revenue Share, depending on the offer selected. Full activation details – including game selection and placement requirements – are reserved exclusively for Spinmatic’s operator network.
“Our goal with Rock the Month is to bring consistent value to our partners,” said Norbert Mathies, Managing Director at Spinmatic. “We know operators are constantly under pressure to keep players engaged, so with our monthly promotions, we aim to offer something that’s genuinely useful. With two offers available each month, operators can choose the one that best fits their market. At the same time, we’re helping them get more out of their campaigns and explore new games with reduced risk.”
Spinmatic encourages operators and industry stakeholders to stay tuned, as new Rock the Month promotions will continue to be rolled out monthly. For those looking for innovative ways to increase player loyalty and revenue, now is the perfect time to get involved.

Apollo Funds Complete Acquisitions of International Game Technology’s Gaming & Digital Business and Everi; Combined Enterprise to Operate as IGT
Apollo announced the completion of the previously announced acquisitions of International Game Technology PLC’s (doing business as Brightstar Lottery) Gaming & Digital Business and Everi Holdings Inc. (Everi) by a holding company owned by funds managed by Apollo affiliates (the Apollo Funds). The all-cash transaction, valued at approximately $6.3 billion, brings together complementary businesses to form a privately held global leader in gaming, digital and financial technology solutions.
The two companies will be integrated into a combined enterprise in the coming months. Headquartered in Las Vegas, the combined enterprise will operate under the IGT name, while retaining the Everi brand in select markets and product lines. IGT will be organized into three business units: Gaming, Digital, and FinTech, creating a customer-first enterprise supported by a people-first culture that values talent, collaboration, and innovation.
“This is a defining moment for our industry. By uniting two leading organizations, we are building an enterprise with the scale, talent and technology to lead the future of gaming. With Apollo’s support, we are very well-positioned to deliver exceptional content across land-based and digital experiences, along with integrated financial solutions and casino management that enhance the player journey and drive value for our customers. I’m honored to be part of this exciting chapter and to help shape the future of IGT,” said Nick Khin, Interim CEO of IGT.
As previously announced, Hector Fernandez is expected to assume the role of CEO of IGT in the fourth quarter of 2025, following the expiration of a customary non-compete period. Until then, Mr. Khin will lead the organization and transition into the role of CEO of IGT’s Gaming business unit upon Mr. Fernandez’s arrival.
“Bringing together highly complementary businesses creates a more competitive, agile and well-capitalized platform built for long-term growth. We are confident that IGT is well positioned to deliver differentiated content and capabilities that better serve customers across the globe. We look forward to working closely with Hector, Nick and the rest of the talented IGT team to lead the industry forward,” said Daniel Cohen, Partner at Apollo.
