B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming has launched its latest seafaring adventure, Sea of Spirits, a highly anticipated slot developed in collaboration with CasinoGrounds, one of the industry’s most influential community-driven streaming platforms.

The partnership marks a significant milestone for Push Gaming, combining the studio’s renowned innovation with CasinoGrounds’ direct player insight to craft an experience shaped by the community. Sea of Spirits fits seamlessly into the Push Originals category.

Set in a haunting underwater realm where ghostly captains guard the treasures of the deep, Sea of Spirits immerses players in a world of mystery, risk, and reward.

Every spin offers the promise of discovery through the new Frame and Activator mechanic, unique overlays that appear randomly on the reels. When triggered by one of three activator symbols, they increase anticipation and potential wins across 4,096 ways to win.

The game’s Frames, in bronze, silver, and gold tiers, upgrade through play, unlocking increasingly lucrative rewards. Persistent frame nudging keeps the tension high between spins. At the same time, the fan-favourite Coin Reveal feature makes a triumphant return with a powerful new twist: frame upgrades that elevate the excitement even further.

In the Bonus and Super Bonus rounds, sticky frames and tier upgrades create a sense of momentum and mastery as players pursue treasures guarded by restless spirits beneath the waves.

Meanwhile, Push Bet offers faster access to the game’s most lucrative features, giving players greater control over their journey.

George Fil, Director of Product Strategy at Push Gaming, said: “Working alongside CasinoGrounds has been an incredibly valuable experience.”

“Its understanding of player behaviour and streaming culture helped us refine every layer of Sea of Spirits, from its mechanics to its storytelling. It’s a true community-inspired slot.”

Daniel Giuffra, Brand Manager at CasinoGrounds, added: “Working with Push Gaming has allowed us to integrate some of its great mechanics with our unique streamer-first ideas. I’m excited to see what the community thinks about this one!”

Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and award-winning content supplier, has once again teamed up with CasinoGrounds to unveil their latest collaborative slot, Beast Gains.

Set against the backdrop of a wild jungle cruise filled with the animal kingdom’s most vibrant characters, Beast Gains delivers relentless action across a 6×4 reel setup. The high-volatility slot blends cascading wins with a maximum win potential of 25,000x the stake, offering players an experience designed for big swings and even bigger rewards.

This marks the sixth collaboration between Relax Gaming and CasinoGrounds, following the success of Book of Power, Iron Bank, Beast Mode, Net Gain, and Iron Bank 2 — titles that have consistently resonated with feature-driven slot enthusiasts.

Feature Trail Drives Continuous Action

At the heart of Beast Gains lies the dynamic Feature Trail, a progression mechanic active in both the base game and Free Spins. As players advance, they unlock a wide variety of upgrades that keep the gameplay evolving, including:

Mystery Symbols
Extra wilds
Explosive chests
Collectors and persistent collectors
Coin features
Additional spins
Multiplier boosts
Level upgrades

This layered structure ensures momentum builds throughout the session, keeping the base game just as engaging as the bonus rounds.

Three Distinct Free Spins Modes

Free Spins are triggered by landing three to five scatter symbols anywhere on the reels, awarding six spins and the opportunity to choose from three unique bonus modes:

Mystery Symbols – Stacked reveals with enhanced payout potential
Multiplier Ladder – Escalating multipliers that can climb as high as 1,000x
Coin Collection – Collector mechanics and coin explosions capable of delivering substantial wins

Players can further elevate the bonus by using the Gamble option, which allows them to upgrade their selected mode up to twice, increasing its potential.

Enhanced Features for Bigger Thrills

For those seeking even greater volatility, Beast Gains offers:

Hot Mode for higher win potential
Optional Enhanced Bet
Bonus Reels feature
Buy Feature, enabling direct access to Free Spins for 85x the stake

These additional mechanics give players multiple pathways to amplify both risk and reward.

Executive Commentary

Tony O’Mahony, Chief Product Officer at Relax Gaming, said:

“Beast Gains will undoubtedly be our game of the quarter at Relax. It carries the look and feel of our previous collaborations with CasinoGrounds, but on a much larger scale. Players who enjoyed Beast Mode and Net Gain will be especially excited to explore what Beast Gains delivers.

“This release embodies everything players appreciate about feature-driven gameplay — constant progression, evolving mechanics, and a base game that is just as engaging as the bonus.

“Working with CasinoGrounds again highlights the strength of our creative partnership. Together, we’ve developed a high-volatility slot packed with all the ingredients needed to become another standout addition to our growing portfolio.”

With its layered progression system, choice-driven bonuses, and significant win ceiling, Beast Gains builds on a proven partnership to deliver a bold new chapter in feature-focused slot entertainment.

Nevada, the best state for gambling in America, takes first place as the state with the best help for gambling addictions
Oregon comes in second place, with the second-highest spending on problem gambling treatment per capita
Louisiana, one of the most well-known gambling states, comes in seventh place

Nevada has the best support for problem gambling in America, new research has revealed.

Online gambling experts, CasinoGrounds, investigated which states have the best support for problem gambling and gambling addiction in America. States received a score out of 10 for factors based the popularity of gambling and presence of problem gambling in the state, the number of treatment facilities, and the amount of funding each state has towards supporting gambling addictions.

Nevada, the top gambling state in America, has also been revealed to be the best state for supporting problem gambling. Thanks to Las Vegas, the state is infamous for its gambling opportunities, but the data shows that it has the best support for those suffering from gambling addiction. The state has the country’s fifth-highest percentage of people suffering with a gambling problem, at 2.7%, but also provides the most treatment facilities of any state. With 123 gamblers’ anonymous meetings available throughout the state per week and state affiliate associations to the NCPG and state-specific agencies, Nevada has the best support for problem gambling.

The second best state for supporting gambling addiction is Oregon. Another popular state for gambling due to the wide variety of legal games available, Oregon comes in sixth place for the presence of problem gambling – of the total adult population, 2.6% are believed to suffer from a gambling addiction. The state has the second-highest spending on treating problem gambling, at $1.41 per capita. The state also has both state affiliations to the NCPG and state-specific agencies, providing the widest variety of support to Oregon residents.

Coming in third place is Connecticut. The state has one of the lowest percentages of problem gambling in America, at 1.1% of the adult population, coming second to Michigan. Once again, the state has both state affiliations and specific agencies providing support. Connecticut ranks fourth on access to gambling addiction treatment facilities, with 64 locations throughout the state. When it comes to spending on problem gambling, Connecticut comes sixth, at $0.90 per capita.

In fourth place is Michigan, boasting the lowest incidence of problem gambling in America at 0.5%. This could be the reason why the state ranks low on facilities and spending on treatment of gambling addiction, ranking 21st on facilities, and spending only $0.23 per capita.

Closing out the top five is Massachusetts, where 1.7% of the adult population reportedly suffer with a gambling addiction, with the state spending a total of $6.8 million on support and treatment, equating to $0.98 per capita. Massachusetts comes in fifth place for treatment facilities, with 41 weekly Gambling Anonymous meetings throughout the state and 107 facilities for treatment.

At the other end of the scale, the states that provide the least support for problem gambling include Hawaii, Utah, and Alaska, all of which have a legal ban on gambling, explaining why there is little support in the state. However, Idaho and Arkansas, coming 48th and 49th respectively, both rank poorly due to the lack of spending on treatment for problem gambling and the lack of facilities available.

Nevada is one of the most well-known states for gambling, so it is promising to see the state coming out on top providing the most support to residents. Gambling addiction is a very serious problem everyone should seek the support they need to avoid taking gambling beyond a healthy level.”
