Week 15/2023 slot games releases
Here are this weeks latest slots releases compiled by European Gaming
After releasing the macabre delight that was ‘Blood & Shadow’ – Nolimit City is gearing up to introduce yet another blockbuster of a slot into the world. While the provider is no stranger to unconventional themes, their newest release takes things a little further as NLC set out to hit the country roads right alongside the unsuspecting, chainsaw-wielding psycho known as “Chainsaw Larry” in their latest release, Kiss My Chainsaw.
Yggdrasil, has blasted off into outer space with its latest launch Giganimals GigaBlox™. The 6-reel, 40 payline title features the hugely popular GigaBlox™ Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM), which sees supersized symbols land on the reels, potentially reaching up to 6×6 in size. The action-packed game sees two types of Free Spins modes, and a Wild Surge can occur on any spin, turning one of the four low-paying icons into wilds for huge wins.
Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, has released Money Cart 3 in the UK, with players able to leave the base game grind behind and keep their eye on the 10,000x big win. With an RTP of 96%, the latest release in the Money Train series of slots is bonus round focused and targeted towards markets with Buy Feature restrictions.
Things are getting real fruity at Swintt following the launch of its latest classic slot, Win-O-Rama. This is a game that will appeal to fans of traditional slot machines, and those that love to watch as the fruit symbols – as well as BARs, Bells and Lucky 7s – drop onto the reels and the potentially big wins line up. Win-O-Rama is set across five reels and three rows with the choice of two different payout mechanics. Players can either opt for the full 20 pay lines or reduce the number to five but with a much higher volatility and max bet multiplier of 1,222x their bet.
This new game from Red Rake Gaming transports us to Ancient Egypt, where players are challenged to find the great pharaoh Ramses’ guarded treasure. A video slot with the “1 million ways to win” feature, an exciting minigame and a free spins feature, all guaranteeing hours of fun for all players. This game takes you to the doors of Ramses’ pyramid, where you’ll find a wall that is raised bit by bit to discover more rows with each win. If a pyramid appears in a row, it will be added to the progress bar, which will trigger a minigame when filled.
Playson, has added to its captivating Hold and Win series with its first Egyptian night themed release Giza Nights: Hold and Win. This feature-rich 5×3, 25-line slot invites players on a mysterious journey to one of the Seven Wonders of the World – as they embark on a voyage around the ancient town of Giza in search of treasure. Offering enchanting gameplay and immersive design, Giza Nights: Hold and Win is an unmissable adventure for gamers.
Wazdan, has released the latest slot in its hit series, Hot Slot™: 777 Cash Out. The release is the eighth slot in the top-performing Hot Slot™ series, which has delivered strong results across all operator performance indicators. As with its predecessors, Hot Slot™: 777 Cash Out fuses a classic retro theme, reminiscent of an old-school slot machine, with Wazdan’s modern and innovative mechanics.
Gamzix, has released a new mysterious slot called Wolf Story. Wildlife is about danger, but greatness, so everyone just wants to take a look at this amazing picture. Gamzix’s new slot opens this opportunity for players and suggests being involved in the new powerful story, where wild characters let players take some benefits from its land. Wolf Story is a 5-reel, 3-row slot with 25 fixed paylines.
BGaming is inviting players on an intergalactic voyage – where the spaceship’s crew are a gang of adventurous Alien Fruits. Played across six reels, the space-themed slot follows an avocado, plum, pomegranate, lemon and passionfruit as they embark on a trip across the solar system. With enticing gameplay including innovative AI-generated graphics, refilling reels and opportunities to win up to x15000, players accompany the fruit characters as they seek out jelly letters for energy.
Play’n GO add Ronin’s Honour, the all-new samurai-action title to their collection of premium slots. In this adventure, follow The Ronin: a wise swordswoman trained in both ninja and samurai arts, as he clashes blades with Hannya, the fearsome ninja. Pulling inspiration from classic samurai movies, fans of Play’n GO might draw parallels between Ronin’s Honour and the supernatural Tale of Kyubiko (2022). Land three matching symbols to secure a win.
Pragmatic Play, is embarking on a star-studded adventure with its latest slot, Wild Celebrity Bus Megaways. Players can hop on board an iconic double-decker London bus and enjoy up to 117,649 ways to win across six ever-changing reel sizes. Symbols include an array of celebrity passengers, who can form winning combinations to award a win. Any winning symbols are removed from play, triggering a cascade of new symbols. This tumble feature continues for up to 20 consecutive spins or until no more wins are created.

GamCare releases Annual Report following record breaking year of support on the National Gambling Helpline
GamCare’s National Gambling Helpline received a record 55,228 calls and online chats from people experiencing gambling harm in 2023-24 – a 25% increase from the previous year – according to the charity’s Annual Report.
In a year marked by uncertainty over the future shape and structure of the gambling harms treatment sector following the previous government’s white paper on gambling reform, the charity continued to prioritise those at-risk of, or currently experiencing, gambling harm.
Of all calls and online chats that were responded to on GamCare’s Helpline in 2023/24, 41,070 (74%) were classed as supportive interventions. This includes supporting people with initial guidance and advice as well as delivering a seamless entry point into structured treatment services, with individuals completing treatment reporting a significant reduction in gambling-related distress and financial harm.
In March 2024, the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities published an assessment of the gambling treatment system, highlighting that 57% of individuals engaging in treatment were referred by the National Gambling Helpline. This underscores the Helpline’s critical role in connecting people to the support they need. Over 9,100 free treatment sessions were delivered in the year to April 2024, with an average of just 2.1 days’ wait from point of referral.
GamCare’s targeted programmes aimed at young people, women, and the criminal justice system provided training on how to spot the signs of harms and where to signpost into support for 10,344 professionals, and education for 53,324 young people, children and parents. The Women’s Programme, in partnership with organisations such as Refuge, trained 3,813 professionals to recognise and address gambling-related harm among women.
Margot Daly, Executive Chair of GamCare’s Board, says: “Throughout a challenging year and with heightened demand for our services, GamCare’s staff have got on with the job of preventing harm where possible and treating harm where necessary. While we expect important changes in the gambling harms landscape, we have been determined not to let this uncertainty affect our relentless focus on the people who really matter – those at-risk of or currently experiencing gambling harms.
“I would like to thank and pay tribute to our frontline staff who provide 24/7 support for all those at risk or in distress. I also want to thank GamCare’s senior executive team who have steered GamCare through a period of sustained change, and to my fellow trustees for their guidance, unwavering support and the time each has dedicated to ensuring that the charity stays on course and on mission.
“As we look ahead to how the future of the gambling harms sector is shaped, we are committed to working proactively with the NHS and other partners and commissioners to ensure that people are continually able to receive the right support at the right time.”
