Belatra breaks out Tony Gambler slot
Belatra Games, the specialist online slots developer, has released its latest slots caper, Tony Gambler. This escapade is set within a 5×4 framework and welcomes players along on a cracking casino heist.
Tony Gambler instantly stands out thanks to the Wild Big Safe symbol, which expands to fill entire reels, increasing its multiplier with each offset. Should more than one Wild Big Safe symbol appear, their multipliers combine for a mega payout. The Wild symbol has the potential to complete the entire reel and increase its multiplier value by one with each offset. If more than one Wild symbol appears, the winning total on the line is multiplied by the sum of all the Wild Multipliers.
Another exciting part of the game is the Portal. When a Portal appears on the reels, it means Tony can break into the casino’s safe. As he safely navigates the security beams, the Portal Multiplier will grow in value, potentially hitting 100. Should Tony evade security completely then the multiplier will be added to the Global Multiplier to boost winnings even further.
Eight Free Games will be sprung if players find three scatter symbols on the first, third, and fifth reels. Once inside this part of the game, the Global Multiplier begins with one and increases with successful Portal robberies. Two Scatters in Free Games will award an extra spin, with a maximum of 100. Finding three Scatters in Free Games will reward another three Free Games, also capped at 100. Additional scatters during Free Games will continue the round.
Tony Gambler also includes an enticing Hold-and-Win Bonus. Six or more credit symbols here will activate the bonus where players can sneak away with extra credits and extra bonuses. The bonus reels have credit symbols, donors, collectors, and empty symbols, each contributing to the final payout. This bonus round will run while new credit symbols, donors, or collectors are found, or until all reels are completed. Players pick up one of the Extra Bonuses if the four different credit symbols, Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand, have been completed.
Sergey Chernyavski, Belatra Games’ CCO, said: “Tony Gambler is the coolest cat in town and players will love this fun adventure that is jam-packed with engaging features. It would be daylight robbery not to try this game in an attempt to pull off the heist of the century.”

10-15% Of Gamers In Florida Show Signs Of Gaming Addiction: Here Are 10 Signs Your Kid Is Suffering From It (And How You Can Help)
Recent studies indicate that 10-15% of young gamers in Florida exhibit signs of gaming addiction. These findings underscore the need for early identification of symptoms to prevent negative impacts on children’s mental and physical health. Gaming addiction, if not dealt with, can lead to poor academic performance, social withdrawal, and even health problems.
Marin Cristian-Ovidiu, CEO of FreezeNova, discusses key indicators of gaming addiction and offers practical advice for parents.
Recognizing Early Signs
“Early recognition of gaming addiction is crucial in preventing long-term negative outcomes,” Marin explains. The following signs can help parents identify if their child might be developing an addiction:
Exhaustion and Irritability
Constant tiredness and grumpiness during the day could indicate late-night gaming sessions interfering with sleep.
Gaming Obsession
If gaming dominates your child’s thoughts and conversations, and they plan their day around it while neglecting other responsibilities, it could be a sign of addiction.
Decline in Academic Performance and Lost Interests
A noticeable decline in academic performance or loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities may suggest your child is prioritizing gaming over more important tasks.
Emotional Volatility
Extreme emotional reactions to in-game outcomes, such as uncontrolled anger, known as ‘Gamer Rage’, or intense celebrations, could indicate an unhealthy attachment to gaming.
Physical Strain
Signs of repetitive strain injuries like ‘Gamer’s Thumb’ or ‘Nintendo Neck’ from prolonged screen time are warning signals.
Neglecting Basic Needs
If your child is neglecting basic needs like eating, sleeping, or hygiene to keep playing, gaming has likely taken an unhealthy control over their life.
Creating a Supportive Environment
While video games can be a great source of entertainment and connection, around 70% of people with signs of gaming addiction also experience social disorders. Marin recommends a few tips for building a supportive and open environment for your child.
Teamwork and Setting Boundaries
“Parents and children should work together to create a healthy gaming environment. Gaming addiction requires a holistic approach,” Marin advises. Start by setting clear boundaries on gaming time to ensure there’s room for schoolwork, chores, and quality family time.
Revisit activities your child once loved, like football practice or exploring new hobbies together. It’s vital for your child to take breaks from screens, so create a balanced daily routine that includes homework, chores, exercise and just some gaming time. This allows your child to enjoy their games without neglecting other aspects of their life.
Open Communication
Maintain open communication. Discuss the games your child enjoys and any concerns you might have. By understanding their world, you can work together to find solutions.
Remember, you’re not alone. If you feel overwhelmed, seek professional help from specialists in gaming addiction. Marin concludes, “By working as a team, setting clear boundaries, and fostering open communication, we can help your child develop a healthy relationship with gaming and thrive in all areas of life.”
