Yggdrasil and Bulletproof Games light the fires in its new hit Tempered Steel
Yggdrasil and Bulletproof Games are hard at work forging fantastic gaming experiences in its latest release, Tempered Steel.
The 5×3, 20 payline slot is set in a fearsome forge, where a blacksmith is busy pounding out wins for players brave enough to handle the heat of his workshop.
During base gameplay, the blacksmith acts as a wild, while at random points his tools may heat up and drop into the barrel, causing steam to rise and a random modifier appear. This triggers either the Lock and Spin, Bonus Frenzy, or Forge Your Weapon features.
Lock and Spin will lock in any stacked wilds lock into place, and a respin occur. If any reel remains unlocked, an extra spin will be awarded.
The Bonus Frenzy feature adds more scatter symbols to the reels, increasing the chances of triggering the free spins. These are set on fire as they pass the reels.
Forge Your Weapon sees players smash through rock three times to reveal a weapon, which will appear stacked on the reels.
If three or more bonus symbols land on the reels it will activate the free spins mode, where five forges are lit upon entering the mode. On each spin, one or more of these forges may be activated, adding a wild to the reel above.
Depending on how many scatters land, a corresponding number of wilds will be added to the reels for the duration of the feature. Wilds will move up one step per spin in the bonus, and once all forges have been extinguished and all wilds have moved out of the reel the round ends. At the end of free spins, there is a chance that the forges will be relit, and the bonus will continue.
In jurisdictions that permit it, players can also buy their way into the bonus at a cost of 100x their stake.
Part of the YG Masters portfolio, Tempered Steel is powered by GATI, Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to produce consistently cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.
Stuart McCarthy, Head of Product & Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “Our collaboration with Bulletproof Games allows us to explore interesting themes and concepts and nowhere is that more evident than in this smithy-inspired Tempered Steel.
“The YG Masters program continues to blaze a trail for boutique studios and innovative concepts, and we’re very pleased to facilitate the latest Bulletproof release.”
Michael Bullock, Product Director at Bulletproof Games, said: “Tempered Steel is a fiery environment filled with stacked wilds, modifiers and more as we look to bring a unique product to the market.
“With the potential for forges to relight in the bonus, huge wins can await in the heat of the forge and we’re excited to see how players enjoy our product.”

Awards
Tuplaus wins Gamification Manager title at Slotsoo Finland Casino Awards 2026
Wildz Group brand Tuplaus has won the Slotsoo Finland Casino Awards 2026 “Pelillistämispäällikö” (Gamification Manager) title, according to a company announcement dated July 2026 from Ta ‘Xbiex, Malta.
Slotsoo’s organisers said: “Only a casino that has taken the gambling experience to a whole new level can be called a gamification manager.” Judges added that Tuplaus delivers “multidimensional gaming moments” that are “far from the monotonous spinning of classic slot machines”.
The judges also highlighted consistency in Tuplaus’ use of gamification from onboarding onwards. They said that “even with the welcome bonus, the player gets to progress step by step and unlock new benefits along the way, and not all the prizes fall into your lap at once. When you add in other promotions and gaming elements, the whole thing feels much more alive than the usual casino experience. Tuplaus shows that the best bonuses are not always the biggest, but they can also be the most fun”.
The company said the Slotsoo accolades assess “hundreds of brands” across multiple categories.
Tuplaus launched in 2025, when Wildz Group CEO Sam Brown said: “We’re exceptionally proud of this new product that will serve our players with the latest online casino experience. Our existing products, Wildz, Wheelz, Spinz, Caxino and Chipz already enjoy a convincing market share, and we’re optimistic that Tuplaus will meet with the same enthusiasm. We have a wide range of player rewards, bonuses, boosts, and more, [and] we’re confident players will love the latest addition to the Wildz Group family of online casinos.”
In the release, Tuplaus also pointed to Pay & Play functionality, no-registration onboarding, a catalogue of games from third-party providers, and frequent promotions as parts of its product proposition.

Swintt’s Elysium Studios launches Odyssey Hold & Win slot
Swintt has released a new slot from its Elysium Studios label, titled Odyssey Hold & Win. The supplier said the game is built around a Hold & Win collection mechanic and features a stated maximum win of 3,317x.
Odyssey Hold & Win runs on a 4×4 grid that can expand to 4×8 when Athena appears, according to the company. The theme draws on Greek mythology, with symbols including Odysseus, Calypso, Poseidon and Circe.
The core mechanic collects and pays all cash symbols on the reels whenever Odysseus lands, Swintt said. The release also includes a respin-style feature where three Athena symbols expand the grid, mirror cash values and award three respins, with the counter resetting when new cash symbols land.
A Free Spins feature triggers with three scatters and awards 10 spins, with cash symbols locking until collected, the company said. During Free Spins, Poseidon can combine all cash values into a single icon, Circe can add a random number of cash symbols, and Athena and Calypso can add spins or respins under specific conditions.
Anthony Dalla-Giacoma, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “The Odyssey is one of the most enduring tales of hardship, adventure and homecoming, making it the perfect inspiration for a slot that’s packed with memorable characters and exciting feature potential.
“With expanding reels, locked cash symbols, divine modifiers and wins of up to 3,317x, Odyssey Hold & Win is a fittingly epic addition to the Elysium Studios line-up and a title we believe will appeal strongly to operators looking to offer players a fresh take on Greek mythology.”

Rumble Kong CASHINGO
