Swintt makes a sparkling start to 2024 in Big Max Diamonds and Wilds
Sought-after software provider’s latest Premium release dazzles players with a trio of rewarding respin features, including multipliers, random wilds and magical Mega Reels
Having seriously upgraded its exciting catalogue of Premium releases throughout 2023, popular software provider, Swintt, is seeking to maintain that momentum going into the New Year as it prepares to dazzle players with its sparkling new slot, Big Max Diamonds and Wilds.
Being both a SwinttPremium game and a new entry into the “Big Max” series of slots, players will find plenty of familiar features and design elements spread across the five reels and 30 fixed paylines of Big Max Diamonds and Wilds. For starters, the game’s symbols are comprised entirely of fruit symbols and lucky sevens, with substitute wild symbols that expand to fill their reels.
Where Big Max Diamonds and Wilds differs from many other classic slots, however, is in the trio of rewarding respin features that have been packed into the base game. As players spin, they’ll notice that special diamond icons appear on reels two and four – and should one of these stop in view, it will randomly add up to three coloured diamonds to the corresponding totems on the left side of the reels.
Whenever one of the totems is filled with three diamonds of the same colour, one of three rewarding extras will be activated. Collecting three red diamonds will trigger a Mega Reels respin, adding three rows to the gameboard and increasing the total number of paylines to 75. Three blue diamonds, meanwhile, will ensure any wilds that land in the subsequent respin benefit from a 2x multiplier. Finally, collecting three green diamonds will randomly add 5-10 wilds to the reels for the next respin.
As if those three features alone didn’t already add enough glitz and glamour to proceedings, Big Max Diamonds and Wilds also boasts a further free spins feature that can be activated by landing three or more scatters in any position. Doing so will award 8-12 free games, with any diamonds collected during the feature now providing a further free spin while also counting toward their respective respin bonus.
Of course, being a SwinttPremium title, players are also free to gamble any winnings they’ve made in the base game or free spins in the studio’s popular Risk feature. Available after any winning spin, Risk challenges them to correctly guess the colour of a hidden playing card to double their current prize, with multiple picks available until either an incorrect choice is made, or the maximum win is achieved.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “With SwinttPremium releases proving incredibly popular with players all over the globe, we’ve gone to great lengths to expand the catalogue of titles that we offer over the past few months – and our first release of 2024 sees us pick up right where we left off by adding another exciting Premium game to our collection in Big Max Diamonds and Wilds.
“Featuring many of the staple sounds and design elements that Swintt players will already know and love from the series, this dazzling new addition to the “Big Max” line-up boasts a trio of rewarding respin features offering everything from expanding reels to multiplier wilds. Couple that with free spins and an optional Risk feature that lets them push their luck for even greater rewards and we’re certain the game will go on to be a big hit this month.”
A 39-year-old South African expat, Branden Tekram, has won AED 5 million in The UAE Lottery’s Lucky Day draw, according to the operator. The company said the win marks “the first time the second prize has been won on a Wednesday draw since its recent introduction.”
Tekram said he discovered the result while checking email. “It’s still overwhelming and unbelievable. I don’t know how to explain it. I mean, I’m a millionaire in Dubai,” he said. He added that he told his wife at home and they “sat there in disbelief.”
The winner said the family plans to take a staged approach to using the money, including funding a prototype linked to a patent application his wife is working on, and potentially moving into a villa. He also said the win could help them access additional support for their son.
The operator said it has awarded more than AED 300 million in prizes to more than 340,000 winners across its portfolio, including Lucky Day, Scratch Cards, and E-Instants. Lucky Day draws run every Wednesday and Saturday, with prizes including the AED 30 million grand prize and AED 5 million second prize. The company said all games are regulated by the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA).

Spinomenal has released The Desperado Drifter Hold & Hit 3×3, the latest addition to its Hold & Hit portfolio.
The Western-themed slot uses a 3×3 bonus grid and features a Wild symbol (a bag of gems) that substitutes for all symbols except Bonus and Bonus Collect. Bonus coins land on reels one and three, while the Bonus Collect coin lands on reel two.
When Bonus Collect lands alongside one or more Bonus symbols, the game triggers an Instant Win Feature that collects the values and adds them directly to the player’s balance. The same symbol combination also starts the Bonus Game, with triggering symbols locked in place and three spins awarded initially.
During the Bonus Game, only Bonus and Bonus Collect symbols can appear. Spins can apply multipliers of x1, x2, x5, x7, x10 and x15, and the feature includes jackpots set at Mini (x25 total bet), Minor (x50 total bet), Major (x150 total bet) and Grand (x5,000 total bet) for filling all nine positions. The spin counter resets each time a new symbol lands.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya, commented: “The Desperado Drifter Hold & Hit 3×3 gives players the chance to join a high-stakes Wild West adventure. Smart visuals, nail-biting gameplay and a four-tier jackpot peaking at x5,000 make this a title that will keep players coming back for more.”
