LIGHTNING BOX™ TRAVELS INTO THE EYE OF THE STORM IN STELLAR CASH BLOWN AWAY™
Specialist slot provider Lightning Box, one of Light & Wonder’s in-house studios, has released STELLAR CASH BLOWN AWAY a slot which blends mechanics of an existing hit game, BLOWN AWAY and STELLAR CASH, which is a revamped version of the classic Stellar Jackpot franchise.
This 5×3 reel slot has symbols depicting swans, dinosaurs and monkeys that must form matching combinations across the title’s 25 paylines to award a win. Players are aided in creating these wins by STELLAR CASH BLOWN AWAY’s wild symbol which substitutes all other symbols in game except the scatters.
Additionally, reel five is home to the tornado symbol, once landed this removes the lowest paying symbol in game and awards a respin where the symbol can be landed again. This mechanic is further built upon in the free spins round which is awarded for landing at least three boat scatter symbols.
This awards 10 free spins where each tornado symbol removes the lowest paying symbol and has a chance of awarding an increasing multiplier up to 7x. Similar, to the base game, landing the tornado on spin 10 will award additional respins until no tornado symbols are landed.
The title is also home to the Stellar Cash bonus, unlocked for landing three spaceship symbols attached to any normal symbol in game. The player is transported to space to battle against enemy ships, with them choosing which spaceship to target, picking correctly awards a bounty prize and progresses the player to the next level with increased winning potential. However, choosing incorrectly will see the player lose one of three lives where the loss of all of these ends the bonus round. In the last level, spaceships will reveal Mini, Minor, Major or Grand jackpot prizes.
STELLAR CASH BLOWN AWAY will first launch in New Jersey exclusively via BetMGM and will be available to customers of Light & Wonder’s industry leading OPENGAMING™ platform alongside popular new titles such as CRYSTAL VAULT™ and BLOOD AND GOLD™.
Michael Maokhamphiou, Operations Manager at Lightning Box said: “Combining a hit game with a revamped bonus to create a new slot which benefits from the fan favourite mechanics found in both has produced a title like no other.”
“Players will be removing symbols and increasing multipliers that aid in awarded big wins and can then go on an epic space adventure battling enemy ships. This multi-faceted title has two distinct bonus rounds within it that provide endless entertainment, engagement and of course big win potential.”
Rob Procter, VP Game Development at Light & Wonder said: “Augmenting two mechanics to create a standalone hit that draws upon the innovative features found within each, has produced a slot that has appeal to new customers whilst providing a twist to existing fans of each franchise.”
“Additionally, the removal of low paying symbols in the Free Spins Round creates a crescendo of excitement during play, whereas the Stellar Cash bonus positions player interaction and choice at its core. There really is something for every type of player to enjoy within STELLAR CASH BLOWN AWAY.”

Boomerang Partners reveals first Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 leaders in the race for Wimbledon
Boomerang Partners has shared the first leaderboard results from the Kickoff stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026. One month into the tournament’s third season, the first frontrunners have appeared in the race for the stage’s main prize – a trip to the Wimbledon Championships.
The race for Wimbledon starts to take shape
The Kickoff stage has started at a fast pace. After the first month, the leading team has reached 256 points. The rest of the top five currently stand at 218, 156, 142, and 100 points, followed by teams with 93, 62, 30, 26, and 20 points in the top ten.
The early gap is not only about traffic volume. The top teams are also actively using boosts, special tasks, and stage-based opportunities. For the rest of the field, leaving those mechanics unused can quickly turn into lost points.
For now, the top ten are closest to the stage’s main prize – a trip to the Wimbledon Championships, taking place from June 29 to July 12, 2026. But the Kickoff stage runs until June 9, and May leaves enough room for movement. Several major sports events are still ahead, giving active teams more opportunities to earn points before the stage closes.
The Mystery Box draw looks ahead to football summer
Boomerang Partners is also running the first Mystery Box draw during the Kickoff stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026. This mechanic is separate from the leaderboard: five active participants have already been selected at random, with another five to be named by the end of the month. The first Mystery Boxes go to Zitora Agency, AskGamblers & Gentoo Media, alfa:search, Gdc group, and AskBonus.
The Mystery Box is tied to the FIFA World Cup 2026, although Boomerang Partners is not revealing the full contents in advance. For now, the company is only hinting at exclusive football items connected to national teams competing in the tournament.
The next stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 will run during one of the busiest football periods of the year. By then, the Mystery Box will have a direct connection to what many fans will be watching most closely – the FIFA World Cup.
May brings more room to move
May is the busiest part of the Kickoff stage. The month brings the decisive rounds of European football competitions, the NBA and NHL playoffs, Roland Garros, and other events that tend to concentrate audience interest around key match days.
For affiliate teams, this is where planning becomes important. A steady flow of traffic is useful, but the bigger gains are likely to come from choosing the right days to push, completing additional tasks, and using the remaining point-earning opportunities before June 9.
The first month has shown who started strongest. May will show who can keep that pace – and who can use the final stretch to move closer to Wimbledon.
Kristina Shkredova, Affiliate Team Lead at Boomerang Partners, commented: “The first month has shown that teams are treating the Kickoff stage as a real competition, not just a short campaign. The leading positions are already backed by a clear strategy: teams are using boosts, planning around sports peaks, and staying active across different mechanics. But this is exactly why the stage is still open. In May, one well-timed push can change a team’s position quickly, so consistency and timing will matter as much as the current point gap.”
The road to London remains open
The Kickoff stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 continues until June 9. Until then, the leaderboard remains open, with updates on the stage results, the remaining Mystery Box winners, and the race for the main prize in London available on the official Golden Boomerang Awards website.
