Unwrap a flurry of festive wins in Chessmas by Swintt’s Elysium Studios
New board-game based entry in the Elysium Studios – Driven by Swintt line-up sees tactics meet tinsel as players get into the holiday spirit with big wins of up to 9,021x
We all know nothing beats a good board game over the holiday period – so to help players get into the competitive spirit this Christmas, Elysium Studios has created a cracking new Chessmas slot where making the perfect play could result in a flurry of festive wins.
Taking place in the cosy confines of Santa’s workshop, Chessmas features an expanded 5×5 reel set with 15 fixed paylines and is designed to look like a classic chess board. Symbols to feature in the game include reindeers, snowmen, sleighs and Mrs Claus, with each of these icons taking on the characteristics of a corresponding chess piece when its wild modifier has been activated.
At the start each round, a special “Christmas Reel” to the left of the board will spin to reveal either a win multiplier or a symbol to become wild. In the latter case, any instances of the selected symbol will expand in a pattern that mimics the actions of a particular chess piece – with reindeers moving in an L shape, snowmen spreading diagonally and sleighs copying horizontally.
Mrs Claus understandably acts as the queen piece and will not only move in any direction to complete the biggest win possible, but also rewards players with three free respins. “But what of Santa himself?” you might ask – fear not, for he also appears to trigger the game’s bonus feature.
Activated whenever Jolly St. Nick arrives on reels one, three and five simultaneously, players will be transported to a Christmas-themed board game and awarded between four and eight rolls of the dice. Each roll they make will see Santa travel around the board and land on spaces containing multipliers, win multipliers and extra turns, with all payouts accumulating as they go.
Should they not wish to wait to trigger this exciting extra from the base game, players also have the option to use the “Buy” button to enter the bonus directly, but either way it’s a feature that has the potential to award big prizes in addition to the slot’s already impressive 9,021x maximum win.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “Whether you’ve been naughty or nice this year, Chessmas – our new festive-themed from Elysium Studios – has all the right ingredients to get you into the holiday spirit. Featuring expanding wilds and an exciting, board-game based bonus feature, it’s a Christmas cracker that we’re sure all players are going to love!”

Stand and deliver! Play’n GO heads to the highways with Midnight Gold
Play’n GO unveils Midnight Gold, a spiritual successor to the 2023 blockbuster title Highway Legends.
This thrilling 5×3 online slot offers 20 fixed paylines, stunning visuals, and an array of innovative features to keep players on the edge of their seats.
Narratively, players join a ragtag unit of daring rogues as they leave the daylight behind for a moonlit heist of epic proportions. Racing through shadowy highways and unforgiving terrains, their quest for gleaming treasures is fraught with challenges and perilous challenges…
With the Deliver Feature, Treasure Chests and Cash Bag symbols bring multipliers ranging from x2 up to an impressive x250. Free Spins provide players with a choice between Stacked Wilds, which span three positions, or Roaming Wilds, which hold over and move to random positions for even more potential wins.
Building on its legacy of innovative gameplay, Midnight Gold introduces Mystery Instant Wins, where Scatters can randomly reveal multipliers of up to x20, adding excitement to every spin. The high stakes peak with Super Free Spins, triggered by landing a special gold Scatter symbol. Every spin in this mode guarantees a Wild Multiplier, enhancing the chance for legendary rewards.
The game’s dark tones and gleaming accents create a captivating contrast, immersing players in a sleek and sophisticated heist experience. Fans of Play’n GO’s adventure-packed slots such as the aforementioned Highway Legends and Undefeated Xerxes will feel right at home with Midnight Gold. Like Highway Legends, which charmed players with its thrilling heist narrative and fast-paced gameplay – Midnight Gold takes the action to new heights with its nocturnal setting and refined features.
Meanwhile, the bold ambition and reward potential of Undefeated Xerxes find a fitting counterpart in the high-octane historical drama of Midnight Gold. With its blend of engaging storytelling and innovative mechanics, this title continues Play’n GO’s tradition of delivering unforgettable gaming experiences.
Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “Midnight Gold brings the period drama action to life, combining engaging features with striking visuals. From the Deliver Feature to the Guaranteed Multipliers in Super Free Spins, this game is all about rewarding gameplay and building on top of the foundations that make our historical slots so great.”
With its engaging mechanics and polished design: Midnight Gold is set to shine as another one of Play’n GO’s classic titles.

Booming Games shine with new 64 Gold Coins Hold & Win
New Year, new… game! As we welcome in 2025, we also welcome a brand new slot from Booming Games – the super 64 Gold Coins Hold & Win.
This shiny new arrival boasts all the hallmarks of a classic. A 5×5, 30-payline slot with the famous casino symbols you’ve grown to love – lemons, cherries, lucky 7s and more. But this Hold & Win comes with a tantalising twist.
While many Hold & Win games require six coins in the base game to trigger the feature, you can do it here with just five. That launches the Coin Blitz Hold and Win, where every coin resets the spin counter, increasing your chance of landing a Mini, Minor, Major or Grand Jackpot. And that biggest pot can give you up to 1,000x your stake.
That’s not the only way to win, of course. Discover a Coin Blitz symbol and the coin will spin, revealing either the Boost (randomly increasing coin values) or the Grid Expand – which turns the 5×5 into an 8×8.
You can do the math from there. Your task is to fill that grid with 64 coins and unearth a wild win of 10,000x your original bet.
As with all of the provider’s titles, 64 Gold Coins Hold & Win has been certified for launch in core regulated markets including the UK, Sweden and all Malta jurisdictions.
Nemanja Živić, Director of Games at Booming Games, said: “Forget your resolutions, 64 Gold Coins Hold & Win is a New Year’s revelation! We love shiny new things and this ticks every single box. A classic casino feel with fresh, fun features – and the chance to win up to 10,000x your bet. Booming Games have delivered a sure-fire favourite to start the New Year in style.”
