Kingdoms Clash and Battle for Wins in Lightning Box’s Blood And Gold
Enjoy a twist on the popular cash and respin feature in this exciting new release
Specialist slot provider Lightning Box, one of Light & Wonder’s in-house studios, has released Blood and Gold, a title filled with exciting battles and respins.
This 5×3 slot features symbols depicting the leaders of the warring Red and Blue factions as the highest paying symbols in game, along with an array of trebuchets and war horns that must form matching combinations across the title’s 25 paylines to award a win. Players are aided in creating these combinations by the game’s wild, which substitutes all other symbols except the scatter symbol.
Blood And Gold will initially be made available across Europe for two weeks exclusively on Rank Group before being released across all partners thereafter.
Six or more scatter symbols landing during any base game spin awards the Battle rounds, with a choice of the Red or Blue kingdoms presented to the player. Initially awarding three lives and therefore three respins, cash symbols can be landed across the gameboard and collected as prizes.
However, a battle between the leaders of each kingdom at the end of every spin decides if these prizes are awarded. Picking the losing kingdom voids all wins for that spin and loses one of three lives given, whereas choosing the right kingdom collects all prizes and doesn’t reduce the number of lives gained so far. Additional lives can also be landed during the free spins round allowing for extra chances for your kingdom to win a battle and claim these prizes.
Blood And Gold is available to customers of Light & Wonder’s industry leading OpenGaming™ platform alongside popular new titles such as Chicken Fox JR and Lightning Gorilla.
Michael Maokhamphiou, Operations Manager at Lightning Box said: “Innovating within our games is something that has allowed Lightning Box to reach new customers and retain existing players and this originality can be seen throughout the gameplay of Blood And Gold.
“The Battle round hinges on player choice allowing their engagement and decision to affect all elements of the bonus game. With multiple battles on offer, additional lives and big win potential being ultimately decided by player interaction we are sure they will adore the medieval action on offer in Blood And Gold.”
Rob Procter, VP Game Development at Light & Wonder “Lightning Box’s talented team have again created a title filled with engaging and entertaining features to which players will be drawn. Making the heat of battle determine win amounts gained is a unique concept and we are excited to see how it is perceived.”

Wazdan Unveils Latest Classic Reboot: Magic Fruit$: Oranges
Wazdan, a top developer focused on gains, has introduced its newest retro-themed game, Magic Fruit$: Oranges, enhancing its collection of energetic, performance-oriented titles.
The latest launch offers a contemporary spin on the traditional fruit slot, merging recognizable visuals with various engagement-focused features aimed at improving player enjoyment and fostering lasting retention.
Central to the game is Wazdan’s popular Cash Infinity
feature, which enhances the thrill during gameplay while boosting the chances for lucrative results. The title additionally features the popular Cash Out mechanic in the base game, providing players the chance to obtain immediate cash rewards.
While playing, a Cash Out indicator may show up on a random reel and stay active for five spins. If a bonus symbol appears on that reel when the countdown hits zero, the player receives the associated symbol prize.
Gamers can additionally activate the favored Hold the Jackpot
bonus round, presenting the chance to secure fixed jackpots. The Chance Level
feature further enriches the game, enabling players to boost their chances of accessing the bonus round by multiplying their base bet by 2x, 4x, or 6x.
Collectively, these mechanisms embody Wazdan’s engagement-oriented philosophy, aimed at crafting customizable player experiences through approaches intended to achieve verified outcomes in regulated markets.
Andrzej Hyla, Chief Commercial Officer at Wazdan, said: “Expanding our portfolio with titles such as Magic Fruit$: Oranges is a very rewarding process for the entire team at Wazdan and reflects the journey we have been on as a company. In an increasingly competitive market, the biggest challenge is remaining an innovative supplier while maintaining the quality of the user experience, and that is exactly what drives our approach to game development.

Candy Links Bonanza 3
Sugar rush on the reels as Stakelogic unveils Candy Links Bonanza 3
Hot Spots, Hurricane Connections, and Wheel of Fortune prizes add a new sugar high to the newest Candy Links edition.
Stakelogic has unveiled Candy Links Bonanza 3, the newest addition to its well-known Candy Links series and the third installment in the franchise.
Located in a vibrant realm of bright confections, shimmering Coins, and glittering Hot Spots, Candy Links Bonanza 3 enhances the mechanics that defined the previous games, advancing that beloved sweet spot formula with an exciting array of sugary surprises.
The game features 3,125 winning combinations, created by matching symbols that align from left to right. Coin symbols can appear during the game and contribute to the Hurricane Links panel, where they are gathered and retained as players progress toward extra Coin-related rewards.
Coins can be arranged horizontally, vertically, or diagonally within the panel. When five Coins link, their values are given, and various combinations can activate in the same round. Since the gathered Coins stay put until the feature refreshes, the mechanic fosters a distinct feeling of accumulation as the panel fills and fresh winning patterns emerge.
Enhancing the gameplay excitement is the Hot Spot feature, which may show up with each spin; if coins or unique symbols fall inside it, the payout is boosted even more. In addition, unique symbols such as Rocket, Chest, and Coin Machine can impact the Hurricane Links panel by introducing Coins or enhancing their values, which aids in speeding up progress as the panel becomes filled.
The Free Spins feature is triggered by three or more Bonus symbols. During Free Spins, Wilds and Multipliers can appear while Hot Spots become even more powerful, gaining the ability to clone regular symbols.
At the peak of the bonus sequence, players can trigger the Wheel of Fortune, which offers the chance to win multipliers and jackpot prizes including Mini, Minor, Major and Mega rewards.
James Jelliffe, Head of Slots at Stakelogic, said: “Candy Links Bonanza has earned its place as a popular series for us, so it felt like the right time to return with an even bigger and brighter third chapter. Candy Links Bonanza 3 leans into the playful charm players enjoy about the world of the game, while giving the series a fresh burst of energy for its next outing.”
