Million Games and partner studio Black Cat are excited to announce the release of Island Ices, a vibrant 5×4 slot packed with tropical charm and rewarding mechanics. As the second game from Black Cat under the Million Star partner programme, Island Ices brings a refreshing low-volatility experience with a polished aesthetic and summer-ready features.

Designed for players who love quick-paced, feel-good gameplay, Island Ices features:

  • 20 paylines

  • 96.3% RTP

  • Free Spins with multipliers up to x10

  • A Prize Collection Bonus Game worth up to 1,750x the player’s bet

A Game Built for Laid-Back Spins and VIP Wins

Set against the backdrop of a luxury island resort, Island Ices takes players from sun-soaked afternoons by the pool to nighttime VIP beach parties, complete with fireworks and instant-cash cocktails.

Landing 3 or more VIP Ticket symbols triggers the Free Spins bonus game, Beach Party style, awarding up to 15 Free Spins with multipliers of x2, x5, or x10. During Free Spins, cash-filled Cocktail symbols become more frequent, turning every spin into a shot at a bigger prize.

The Prize Collection Bonus Game is activated by landing 3 or more Cocktail symbols, clearing the reels and replacing them with instant-cash values only. Players begin with 3 ice cubes—each spin uses one, and every new cash symbol refills them. The feature ends when no ice cubes remain or the grid is full.

Million Star Innovation Meets Summer Style

“Island Ices is a great example of how strong themes and smart mechanics can create something players genuinely enjoy,” said Thomas Nimstad, CEO of Million Games. “Black Cat has followed up their debut with a beautifully executed second release that brings fresh flavour to the lobby without overwhelming complexity.”

With a light, tropical theme and strong feature set, Island Ices offers a flexible, low-volatility experience built to appeal to a wide range of players. The game follows the successful launch of Captain’s Curse and marks another creative step forward for Black Cat under the Million Star programme.

Island Ices is now live across all Million Games partner platforms.
