Players are invited to don their pirate hats in Rum & Raiders, the latest Hold and Win release from Iron Dog Studio offering wins up to 25,000x!

With an oversized 5 reel, 4 row base game board, Rum & Raiders comes with a veritable pirate’s booty worth of features. Hunt for the Skull & Bones Scatter symbols, three of which will trigger the feature-packed Hold and Win bonus game.

During Hold and Win, with the now-familiar format of three re-spins that refill each time the player lands another multiplier or character multiplier, the dastardly crew of Pirates are key to scooping those big wins:

The Shooter – Doubles the value of all symbols on the board
The First Mate – Collects all other symbols share of the winnings
The Parrot – Adds its own value to the other symbols on the board
The Captain – Doubles the top multiplier and collects the winnings
Grogboy – Retriggers all other characters

Filling a whole reel activates one of two additional bonus reels, one on each side of the board, giving even more space for multipliers to land.

For any player who misses the Hold and Win feature by landing only two scatters, the game’s second feature, Broadside Bonus, is triggered. Targeting an unsuspecting merchant ship, players plunder its loot by blasting its broadside. Broadside spins win players multipliers, ramping up their winnings and can also award further spins in the form of extra cannonballs.

Matt Whittington, Mathematician at 1X2 Network commented: “Evolving upon the ever-growing arsenal of Iron Dog Studio’s Hold and Win games, Rum and Raiders comes aboard with a whole roster of pirates to help you Hold and Win the gold on a re-spin!”

“One new feature I’m excited to see players enjoy is Rum and Raiders’ bonus round: Broadside, where they’ll plunder enemy ships for plenty of loot.”

Rum and Raiders is out for exclusive release on the 9^th November and has its general launch across the 1X2 Network on the 16^th November.

Hub88 has launched My Products, a new feature inside its HubConnect Operator Zone aimed at simplifying how casino operators configure and activate their content portfolios.

The company said My Products provides a single dashboard where operators can view their product catalogue, track enablement status, configure preferences and bulk-enable games without leaving HubConnect.

For new title launches, Hub88 said partners can select one or more products, choose their preferred RTP and exposure settings, assign titles to brands or environments, and submit a single request. Requests are then routed automatically to technical teams with the required details, according to the company.

The feature also includes advanced filtering to view availability across brands and markets, and highlights contracted but inactive content to help operators identify portfolio gaps.

Ollie Castleman, Managing Director at Hub88, said: “As operators scale and build out richer lobbies, managing games can quickly become a complex and inefficient task.

“My Products gives our partners a faster and more intuitive way to take control of their content, from discovery through to activation, all within a single, streamlined experience. We are committed to delivering the most convenient and seamless platform for our partners, and this is just one of a number of upgrades we have planned for the year ahead.”
