Live 5 is taking players on an Egyptian adventure like no other in its latest slot release, Sheba Lightning LinesTM. Those that dare to explore the hidden tombs are rewarded with potential riches with a max win potential of 4,000x.

Sheba Lightning Lines is set across 5×4 reels with 20 paylines. Players are helped in their quest for treasure by Expanding Wilds, Free Spins, Prize Wheels and Live 5’s thrilling Lightning Lines mechanic.

This electrifying feature allows players to choose one to four of the horizontal win lines to become a Lightning Line – any three, four or five-of-a-kind horizontal wins on a selected line trigger a wheel with Multipliers and Free Spins up for grabs. Each additional line selected increases the overall stake by 50% of the base stake.

Free Spins can also be triggered from the base game, landing 3, 4 or 5 scatters in view triggers 8, 12 or 16 free games.

If that wasn’t enough, any expanding Sheba Wild becomes sticky for the remaining Free Spins, which increases the potential to trigger Lightning Lines and multiple Prize Wheels the more horizontal winning symbols, the bigger the prizes on the wheels with a single max Multiplier of 100x to be discovered by the most determined explorers.

Sheba Lightning Lines comes with a range of return-to-player settings, from 92% to 94%, and sits at the higher end of the volatility scale so that players really do feel the excitement and anticipation of venturing deep into ancient ruins in search of the treasures hidden within.

As with all Live 5 slots, the game is available in 30+ languages and has been certified for launch in key markets including the UK, Spain, Sweden, Italy, Denmark and all Malta Jurisdictions.

Lloyd Butler, CEO at Live 5, said: “The Egyptian theme is incredibly popular with players in core global markets but with Sheba Lightning Lines we have given it a unique twist that means players will want to explore what it has to offer.

“Our Lightning Lines mechanic has proved to be a big hit on other titles, adding another layer of excitement to the base game. Of course, the chance of Free Spins, Multipliers and Prize Wheels landing will ensure anticipation builds with each spin.

“Sheba Lightning Lines is a great addition to our portfolio, and we are looking forward to seeing players at our partner brands journey to the Egyptian desert in search of the riches hidden within the game.”

F*Bastards says its casino content is now available through more than 400 operators worldwide, marking a distribution milestone for the iGaming supplier as it continues to expand its portfolio and partner network.

In a company statement outlining its background, Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas said the team’s earlier attempt to build a game studio fell short due to positioning rather than production capability. “Looking back, we realised we weren’t missing talent. We were missing identity. We could build games, but we hadn’t built something people could remember. That lesson became the starting point for everything F*Bastards would later become.” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.

The company said it intentionally built its brand around differentiation, including the decision to use the name F*Bastards despite the expectation it would split opinion among potential partners. The founders described early progress as incremental, driven by game releases, industry events, operator feedback and relationship-building, rather than a single breakout moment.

F*Bastards also pointed to a fundraising milestone in 2026, saying it secured its first seven-figure investment. The company positioned the round as validation of execution rather than an early-stage concept.

“From day one, the goal wasn’t to become the biggest supplier. It was to build something people would remember. We’ve come a long way, but in many ways, it still feels like we’re only getting started” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.
