Indulge in sweet wins with Playson’s 25 Cookies: Hit the Bonus™
Playson, the accomplished digital entertainment supplier, is embarking on a mouthwatering adventure in 25 Cookies: Hit the Bonus™, with delectable Bonus Games, lavish multipliers, jackpots and the Hit the Bonus series’ largest-ever 5×5 game field.
A wholesome festive backdrop sets the scene for the engaging Bonus Game, which can be triggered by landing five symbols on the middle row, with a stocking’s worth of rewards ready to unwrap. The Sticky Bonus symbol can appear randomly on the reels during the Main Game and remains until the Bonus Game is triggered.
At the start of each Bonus Game, three re-spins are granted, with each new icon resetting the number of spins to three. This continues until all cells are filled or the player runs out of respins. The Bonus Game is further enhanced by the Multiplier feature, with up to 10 sticky Multipliers able to land on each spin when triggered randomly. Any further multipliers that land on the same cells will increase the multiplier value.
The Extra Bonus Game can be randomly triggered if any Bonus, Sticky Bonus or Jackpot symbols land on the middle row during the Main Game, adding further symbols in quantity enough or more to activate it.
Mystery symbols transform from gifts into Bonus, Jackpot or Boost symbols at random, while the Mystery Jackpot symbols transform into Mini, Minor or Major Jackpot symbols. The Boost symbol is active across both the Bonus Game and Extra Bonus Game, collecting all Bonus, Sticky Bonus and Jackpot symbol values from the reels and adding them to the value. If Multipliers are present, they are applied to the value of the Bonus and Sticky Bonus symbols before collection.
Three gingerbread jackpots can also be earned in the Bonus Game or Extra Bonus Game, when green, blue and purple gingerbread icons land on the reels at random. The corresponding jackpots include Mini Jackpots (10 bets), Minor Jackpots (20 bets) and Major Jackpots (50 bets). If all 25 cells are filled, a Grand Jackpot of x1,000 is awarded.
The Buy Bonus features offer three levels of Bonus Game for different bet amounts. For 50 Bets, players can buy the Bonus Game, while 100 Bets purchases the Extra Bonus Game and 300 the Super Bonus Game.
Vsevolod Lapin, Deputy CEO at Playson, said: “25 Cookies: Hit the Bonus™ is a delightful seasonal addition to our Hit the Bonus series, rounding off the year with an expanded 5×5 field that offers more chances to discover thrilling bonus opportunities.
“This is set to be a tasty treat for players this festive season, with twists and turns in the form of multipliers, a trio of Bonus Games and intriguing modifiers.”

Alberta
MediaTroopers lines up eight operator partners ahead of Alberta launch
MediaTroopers said it is preparing to launch in Alberta’s regulated gaming market on July 13, as Canada’s next regulated commercial gaming market opens.
The digital marketing and customer acquisition firm said it plans to enter Alberta alongside eight “premium operator” clients, which it said are also preparing for their own market entries. MediaTroopers did not name the operators.
The company said its Alberta offering will mirror its work in Ontario, including localized acquisition strategies, compliance-focused marketing, regional player education, and market-tailored performance campaigns.
MediaTroopers also said it has seen “strong interest” from Alberta players through pre-registration activity, without providing figures.
“Alberta represents an exciting next step for regulated iGaming in Canada, and Media Troopers is ready to support operators from day one,” said Shmulik Segal, CEO of Media Troopers. “Our experience in Ontario has given us a strong understanding of what it takes to enter a new Canadian market successfully, from compliance and localization to scalable player acquisition. With eight of our premium clients already preparing for launch and early pre-registration traction underway, we see Alberta as a market with tremendous potential.”
