The post BGC Study Estimates UK Gamblers Spend as Much as ��4.3bn on Black Market Each Year appeared first on Vegas Slots Online News.
]]>The UK Betting and Gaming Council (BGC) has released a new study claiming that as many as 1.5 million people in the UK spend as much as ��4.3bn ($5.7bn) gambling illegally every year.
The industry body commissioned Frontier Economics to carry out the research, and the resulting findings are the first significant look at the prevalence of the black market since the release of the government white paper on gambling legislation in April 2023.
government loses out on as much as ��335m ($445m) over a five-year period
The report highlights the aggressive marketing tactics from offshore operators targeting people in the UK. Estimates suggest the resulting outflow of money will cost the government as much as ��335m ($445m) over a five-year period if no changes are made.
As these platforms don��t have to adhere to the UK regulators�� rules, they incentivize people to sign up with hefty welcome bonuses, anonymous gameplay, and no restrictive payment measures. These operators can evade sanctions by rebranding or making new identities.
54% of people were not even aware the platform they were using was not legal
The report says that over one in five people in the 18 to 24-year-old age range use black market platforms and that 54% of people were not even aware the platform they were using was not legal in the UK.
It also found that some overseas operators deliberately go after people who excluded themselves from all UK Gambling Commission-licensed gambling sites through GAMSTOP.
While online gambling makes up the bulk of the illegal expenditure, with about ��2.7bn ($3.6bn) of an allocation, land-based operations also contribute significantly, with ��1.6bn ($2.1bn) spent at illegal facilities across the region.
Talking about the new research, BGC Chief Executive Grainne Hurst said that it ��exposes the unnerving true scale of the growing, unsafe, unregulated gambling black market.�� Hurst said that illegal operators don��t care about the safety of players, and they don��t want to help fund the government or sporting bodies that benefit from gambling tax money.
She believes that the regulator and government are ��sleepwalking�� into this major issue and that more needs to be done. She pointed out that stricter affordability checks, and more bans on advertising, will only drive more people to these unregulated sites.

]]>The post What Does Low QB Production Mean for NFL Points Betting? appeared first on Vegas Slots Online News.
]]>The modern NFL has been shaped to maximize its entertainment value with high-scoring games, star players, and lots of points. That��s why Week 1��s shockingly low level of offensive production went against everything that fans and NFL betting aficionados were groomed to expect.
the fewest in an opening week since 1996
More than half of the NFL��s starting quarterbacks failed to reach 200 passing yards in their first game. Teams averaged 188.3 passing yards, the fewest since Week 15 in 2007 and the fewest in an opening week since 1996.
What does a slow Week 1 for quarterbacks mean for NFL bettors moving forward? Let��s dive into the numbers.
Week 1 was just the second time since the start of the 2011 season that at least 17 quarterbacks failed to hit a relatively modest milestone of 200 passing yards. That included all of the rookie debutants – Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, and Bo Nix – who combined for 415 yards (138.3 per player).
Williams, the first-overall pick in the draft and a player who has been likened to Patrick Mahomes, only managed 93 yards on 29 attempts, giving him an average of 3.2 yards per throw.
For context, NFL QBs averaged 219 passing yards per game during 2023. The 188.3-yard average was also down from the Week 1 record of 263.8 yards, set just five years ago.
So how and why did all of this happen?
NFL defenses played two-high shell coverages on 60% of snaps in Week 1, the highest rate since Next Gen Stats started tracking this data eight years ago.?
this defensive structure was called on just 38.4% of plays
Five years ago, when the Week 1 record for average passing yards was set, this defensive structure was called on just 38.4% of plays.?
Two-high shells are geared toward stopping explosive pass plays and keeping everything in front of the defenders.
That can also be seen in the average depth of target and average yards per reception, which were down in Week 1 (6.9 and 10.4) significantly from 2019 (7.9 and 11.4). Even last year, those numbers were at 7.5 and 10.9.
That, combined with 15 teams starting quarterbacks that either did not start last year, are coming off an injury, or are in their first two years of starting, bears heavy responsibility for the sharp decline in passing production.
So, with everything discussed above, the implication is that NFL betting was driven by the under on points totals, right? Wrong!
The 45.8 points per game scored during Week 1 was the highest opening-week average since 2021. However, teams only threw 35 passing TDs, the lowest opening-week total since 29 were thrown in 2006.
Meanwhile, ground production was well above its usual standard. Teams ran for 36 touchdowns, marking just the fifth time since the 1970 merger that there were more Week 1 rushing than passing touchdowns.
So, is there a new systemic issue with the NFL?
There are several reasons that the ground game could have overtaken the passing game last week. One of them is that teams typically play their starters very few snaps during the preseason and need time to gel. Another is that quarterbacks are becoming more mobile and are naturally going to throw for fewer yards if they��re running.
The new era of heavy transfer portal activity also means that college players spend less time developing their skills with the same coach and receiver group.
lack of passing yards isn��t yet enough to alter NFL betting approaches
Regardless, the over was still 9-7 (56.3 percent) in Week 1. That means that the lack of passing yards isn��t yet enough to alter NFL betting approaches in points totals markets.
Instead, looking at the under on quarterbacks�� passing yards and players�� receiving yards could be a better investment.

]]>The post Ireland Pursues Problem Gambling Help for Women appeared first on Vegas Slots Online News.
]]>Due to the stigma around gambling, a disproportionately low number of women pursue help for gambling problems. To get around that stigma, Ireland��s EmpowerHer Recovery Network is offering a confidential, free, first-of-its-kind service to speak without ��fear or judgement�� about the problems that led women to seek help.
Project lead Claire Donegan said that many women don��t come forward because they��re afraid of how they will be perceived for their gambling problems. She said: ��My hope is that by providing this free, safe space, we can help to break down barriers and provide women with the motivation they need to take that first step towards recovery.��
research shows a surge the number of women in Ireland affected by harmful gambling
Research from the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI) casts a shadow over the prominence of the problem. The research shows a surge in the number of women in Ireland affected by harmful gambling, with their numbers climbing tenfold since 2019 to a high of 2.9% of the population. Despite the rising numbers of female problem gamblers, the number of women represented in current treatment and support networks remains disproportionately low.
The Extern Problem Gambling network��the organization behind the EmpowerHer service��is providing a diverse offering of services to combat problem gambling among women. The network��s services include one-to-one peer coaching, a recovery toolkit, network group meetings, and confidential spaces. To combat the sense of isolation, the network has also released a new season of podcast stories centered around women ��whose lives have been affected by problem gambling.��
Help-seeking by women in Ireland has always been at disproportionately low rates.
Counsellor Barry Grant said: ��This new service is badly needed in Ireland, in order to reduce stigma around women who experience harm from their own gambling �� and to encourage help-seeking. Help-seeking by women in Ireland has always been at disproportionately low rates. Currently, only 10% of people who access our counsellng service, to work on their own recovery, are women, while recent research from the ESRI found that over 45% of people with gambling problems in Ireland are women.��
The ESRI research, published in late 2023, underscores the rate of problem gambling among not just women but the general population. Their research indicates that one in ten adults in Ireland suffer from problem gambling. ESRI researchers said: ��We still may be underestimating the true prevalence, [which has] serious implications for understanding the role that gambling plays in Irish life.��
If Minister of State Justice James Browne has his way, this autumn will see the passage of a series of long-awaited laws to regulate the gambling industry in Ireland before the next general election.
rising numbers in problem gambling foreshadow how bad the problem could get
Twenty years ago, a similar gambling regulator was established in the UK, but the rising numbers in problem gambling foreshadow how bad the problem could get if further measures are not taken. Advocates suggest that without a newly appointed regulator, the harm from problem gambling in Ireland will only get worse for the public, particularly children.

]]>Philippine offshore gaming operators (POGOs) are now officially banned following a decree by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr in July this year. Gambling regulator PAGCOR has until the end of the year to put that into action and get rid of all POGOs, and it is relying partly on the public to make that happen.
Robert Ace Barbers urged members of the public to flush out any illegal POGO workers
Surigao del Norte 2nd District Representative Robert Ace Barbers urged members of the public to flush out any illegal POGO workers hiding among them. He advised them to do this by using ��various social media platforms�� or reporting ��directly to concerned local government units, immigration and law enforcement units.��
More than 400 POGOs operate in the country, providing jobs for tens of thousands of people. Many of these people are Chinese nationals. The POGOs also tend to focus their efforts on customers in China, a country where gambling is largely illegal other than in Macau. This has prompted the Chinese government to urge its Asian neighbor to clamp down on the operations.
Deputy Speaker David Suarez claimed that the number of SMS scams has decreased drastically since the POGO ban was implemented. This, he believes, proves they were hubs for criminal activity.

]]>The post DraftKings Suddenly Closes Down NFT Marketplace as Class Action Lawsuit Proceeds appeared first on Vegas Slots Online News.
]]>Less than three years after launching its NFT marketplace, DraftKings has suddenly closed it. The gambling operator is a defendant in a class-action lawsuit relating to tokens that were available through the platform, with the plaintiff claiming that it was offering unregistered securities.
the closure is due to ��recent legal developments��
The announcement that the NFT Marketplace posted on its website on Tuesday mentioned that the closure is due to ��recent legal developments.��
Anyone who still has tokens relating to the Reignmaker digital game can exchange them for cash compensation and DraftKings said it will provide regular updates to ensure that customers have access to the necessary support.
Despite the shutdown, DraftKings said that it was proud with what the marketplace had achieved in a short period of time, reflecting the company��s attitude to ��innovate and disrupt�� to try to provide the best products to its users.
DraftKings initially announced its intention to launch a marketplace for NFTs in July 2021, a time when the sector was going through a boom. It went live a couple of months later and rolled out the Reignmakers initiative in March 2022 which saw users collect different NFTs of athletes to gain entry into certain fantasy sports competitions.
The overall NFT market fell into decline just a few months later, leading to plummeting prices.
Then the legal issues began to crop up, with Justin Dufour initially filing a lawsuit against the company and some of its senior executives in March 2023. He claimed that he lost $14,000 after buying NFTs through the marketplace.
DraftKings�� attempt to dismiss the case was unsuccessful
DraftKings�� attempt to dismiss the case was unsuccessful, with Judge Denise Casper saying earlier this month that the allegations have merit. She explained how the tokens initially appear to tick all the boxes to be categorized as a security because people invest money, the investment is a common enterprise, and it contains the expectation of profit that isn��t dependent on the individual investor.
The judge also pointed towards a podcast featuring well-known entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk and DraftKings Chief Transformation Officer Jason Robins in which they said that the NFTs were more than just collectibles or entertainment, that they also presented an opportunity to make money.

]]>The Nevada Gaming Control Board (NGCB) has had to take legal action against Playgon Interactive, Inc and its affiliate, Bitrate Productions. The gaming supplier supposedly used live dealers to deal casino games without a license in Nevada.
a cease and desist demanding that Bitrate stop production of live dealer content
According to a press release from the NGCB, the regulator issued a cease and desist demanding that Bitrate stop production of live dealer content from its Las Vegas studio. Company dealers supposedly dealt games of baccarat and roulette, broadcasting the content to online casinos around the world.
Las Vegas Locally shared footage of the live dealer games on X:
The NGCB highlighted that Playgon��s legal counsel previously argued on two separate occasions in 2016 that a license was not required, insisting that the content would be used for entertainment purposes only. It has come to the regulator��s attention that this is not the case �C ��Bitrate��s activities went beyond social gaming,�� the NGCB concluded.
As per the cease and desist, issued on July 18, Playgon and Bitrate must cease unlicensed activity by 5pm on July 26, or ��face potentially criminal or civil actions.��
��The NGCB will take all necessary actions to enforce Nevada��s gaming laws and regulations,�� stated NGCB Chairman Kirk Hendrick.

]]>The Houston Rockets�� Boban Marjanovi? is 7�� 4�� tall, but despite his imposing presence, he has never really been a very impactful player in his nine seasons in the NBA. He��s carved out a nice career, but mostly as a limited backup. He is known, however, as one of the nicest, funniest players in the league, a personality trait that paid dividends for fans attending the final game of the regular season between Houston and the L.A. Clippers in Los Angeles.
The game was meaningless for both teams �C Houston couldn��t make the playoffs and L.A.��s seed was locked in �C so it was a game for the backups. With less than five minutes remaining, Boban went to the free throw line to shoot two.
The Clippers have a promotion where if an opposing player misses two straight free throws in the 4th quarter, everyone in attendance gets a free Chick-Fil-A sandwich. Boban missed the first free throw, so the fans started getting loud, cheering for the possibility of free chicken.
Boban, who used to play for the Clippers, heard everyone loud and clear. He stepped back from the line, acknowledged the crowd, smiled, and seemed to say, ��I��ve got you,�� and ��This one��s on me.��
When he got the ball back from the ref, he pointed to himself again and, a hero without a cape, Boban Marjanovi? intentionally missed the second shot to the approving roars of the crowd. He had just treated the fans to well over $100,000 worth of Chick-Fil-A. As he backpedaled down the court, Boban raised one finger triumphantly.
Interestingly, that missed shot likely affected wagers on the game, though anyone who bet any significant amount of money on a meaningless game needs help. The consensus over/under closed at 222.5, but depending on the time and sportsbook, bettors could have gotten 221 or 222.
The final score was Houston 116, L.A. 105, for a total of 221.

]]>A new survey suggests DraftKings now holds the top position in the US online gambling operator rankings. Investment bank Truist Securities carried out research in which respondents stated which sports betting platform they prefered.
DraftKings received 29% of the votes, followed by FanDuel with 22%
DraftKings received 29% of the votes, followed by FanDuel with 22%. When ranking their head-to-head selection between these two giants, 61% of people sided with DraftKings. The reasons provided for preferring one over the other were quite mixed, suggesting not much difference between the two.
Summarizing the survey results, Truist Securities Analyst Barry Jonas said the data establishes DraftKings as the ��clear winner,�� although he believes the operators can co-exist. He also noted that the recently-launched ESPN Bet received plenty of positive feedback, which could indicate the possibility of strong growth in its market share over time.
About three-quarters of the respondents said they mainly place parlay bets, which are especially profitable for operators.
Jonas believes that the leading operators are also best at promoting responsible gambling, which stands them in good stead if there��s a regulatory crackdown.
DraftKings also led the way with its iGaming platform, with 27% of people preferring this offering over any other. It was followed by FanDuel with 18% support and 14% for BetMGM. About 62% of respondents said they prefer using the same platform for both their sports betting and iGaming needs.
Backing up other recent research, the overall findings found that iGaming platforms don��t eat into the profits of land-based casinos.

]]>The post Casino Workers Concerned After Robot, AI Demos at Las Vegas Tech Convention appeared first on Vegas Slots Online News.
]]>Las Vegas��s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is one of the biggest tech conventions to take place every year, with all types of innovative technologies on display. Some of the artificial intelligence (AI) and robot exhibits this year have casino workers concerned following demonstrations at CES 2024 last week.
a robotic barista that can create the perfect latte
One of the noteworthy displays was a robotic barista that can create the perfect latte, even finishing it off with an artistic image using the foamy milk.
Talking to the Associated Press, a barista at the SAHARA Las Vegas Hotel & Casino expressed his concerns about the future of hospitality jobs given these new innovations. He described it as ��very scary and very eye-opening to see how humans can think of replacing other humans.��
Some of the other standout demonstrations included robots that could complete deliveries, automated masseuses, AI-powered grills, and even robot chefs.
The possibility for technology to replace certain roles in the Las Vegas casino industry has been at the forefront of minds for some time now. About 40,000 casino workers threatened strike action throughout 2023 as they sought new contracts, including protection from the advancement of AI.
$2,000 in severance pay for each year they worked for their employer
Workers managed to get some protections, including assurances they would receive training in any new systems, as well as $2,000 in severance pay for each year they worked for their employer if their job is replaced by AI or tech.
They also will have the possibility of moving departments if such a job loss happens. The issue of technology was reportedly one of the final aspects of the new five-year contract agreed upon.
Many Las Vegas resorts already utilize new forms of technology that can replace workers. This includes robot bartenders, automated tickets for valets, and self-check-in areas.
AI is especially a threat to casino jobs that do not need any face-to-face interaction with customers, such as cooks, food prep, and housekeeping. According to University of Nevada, Las Vegas Hospitality Department Associate Professor Bill Werner, automating these roles won��t hurt the customer experience, which is very important in a city where top-quality customer service is vital.

Part 2 of our countdown starts with the Sweet Alchemy 2 online slot, a sequel to the Play��n GO favorite that comes with cluster pays.
Eat through the chocolate bar of the Sweet Alchemy 2 online slot as you enjoy the magical tune that comes with the game. This first Play��n GO entry in our top 10, sits on a magical Candyland filled with lollipops, candy rivers, and a candy castle. The game��s protagonist stands to the right of the grid, uttering encouraging phrases as you go along.
The Sweet Alchemy 2 slot starts off with a 6×6 grid surrounded by chocolate blocks. Form winning clusters and destroy the blocks adjacent to winning symbols, thus creating a bigger space for potentially bigger wins. The block resets to its original size at the end of the game round.
Keep an eye out for the sugary wilds, there not only to help you form winning clusters, but also to perform a task. The Gobstopper Wild comes with up to 5 lives, meaning it remains on the reels even after the initial spin. Then you��ve got the Striped Wild, which removes its corresponding row and column when forming part of a winning cluster.
Destroy all the chocolate blocks to receive 4 free spins on the Sweet Alchemy 2 slot. Here, you��ll see 2×2 mega symbols that can increase as you go along. You can receive up to a total of 12 free spins when playing the bonus round.

Spice up your sugary cravings with the Candy Glyph slot machine, a sweet-themed game with a Mexican touch. You��ll see cacti and colorful banners in the background as you spin the seven reels to a typical Mexican tune. Collect clusters of five or more matching pieces of candy to receive a prize.
Every win you achieve on the Candy Glyph online slot results in a tumble. This means that winning symbols leave the reels to make room for new ones to fall, potentially resulting in a new cluster forming. This continues until there are no more matching clusters, at which point you��ll receive your total prize.
The golden packet with the W on it is the basic wild. This substitutes for all regular symbols to complete or enhance winning clusters.
I say ��basic�� because there are other wilds within the Candy Glyph slot, starting from the Power Wild. This spawns inside a winning cluster during every turn. If it forms part of a win, it activates a Power-Up feature.
The Bonbon Bomb Power-Up removes all high and low win symbols in its row and column. The Lollipop Rocket Power-Up removes a randomly chosen low symbol type. The Bouncy Bean Power-Up spawns between 4 and 10 wilds on random positions.
Then there��s the free spins bonus, which you��ll get when landing the Free Spins Bonus Power-Up. Enjoy 9 free spins on the Candy Glyph slot where you��ll receive 3 extra spins when reactivating the bonus.
The free spins bonus comes with the Pinata Glyph Wild, which substitutes as a wild. This symbol multiplies any win it forms part of by its corresponding multiplier. It starts at 1 and increases by +1 for every tumble it��s involved in. The Pinata Glyph Wild moves to a random position during every free spin.

The monsters reveal their powers on the tenth spin, the intensity of which depends on the level of the progress bar.
The red Chain Breaker scatter breaks the Minotaur��s chains. This monster��s power is to expand the reels to 5×4, 5×5, or 5×6. This turns the original 243 ways to win to 1,024, 3,125, or 15,625.
Medusa��s progress bar triggers with the green Chain Breaker scatter. When activated, Medusa adds between two and seven wilds in random positions on reels 2, 3, and 4.

Any Unholy scatter that lands in those positions activates the Fires of Hell sequence, which is where all symbols on marked positions turn into wilds with or without multipliers.
If an Order symbol is present when three Unholy symbols drop in the base game, you��ll enter the Rise To Salvation Bonus feature. Here, you��ll have 10 free spins where the bonus cascade is reversed, meaning the symbols push up instead of dropping down. You��ll have Lost Soul symbols here that could either give you a Global Multiplier of up to 100x or a Cash Prize of up to 666x your bet.

Coming in at number three, we have a duel of the Aussies VS Emus online slot, a Blue Guru Games creation that could send you off with over 16,000x your stake.
It��s exciting times for the farmers as you spin the Aussies VS Emus online slot. This Australian-themed game offers fruit, vegetables, and a wooden house that��s perfect for emu-watching. Enjoy the catchy tune as you spin for cluster wins of up to 49 symbols.
The first feature of our third-place slot is the wild. You��ve got the Aussie Wild and the Golden Aussie Wild, which substitute for all symbols except the Dynamite and the Mystery Boxes, thus increasing your chances of winning a prize.
You��ve then got the Mystery Wheat symbol, which can land anywhere during both the base game and the free spins round. This reveals matching symbols at the end of the spin.
You��ll land an Aussie Wild or a Golden Aussie Wild with each spin on the Aussies VS Emus slot. When an Emu symbol lands in view, you��ll witness the Emu Charge Feature, which is when the emu creates a path to the Aussie Wild or Golden Aussie Wild to attack it, leaving Mystery Wheat in its route. When running adjacent to Dynamite Mystery Boxes, the boxes explode and reveal mystery symbols before collecting in the bar on the right of the grid.
Exploding three Dynamite Mystery Boxes within the same game round rewards you with 8 free spins and an additional 1 spin for every other box. Every three boxes you explode during this round removes one low pay symbol from the Mystery Wheat reveal and increases the global multiplier by +1.
When landing an Emu and a Golden Aussie Wild, you may trigger the Instant Coins Feature, which is where you may see coins with initial prizes of between 1x and 250x your stake, a Collector Symbol that collects all prizes, and a multiplier symbol, that can multiply the values of all coins with by 2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x.
Following their top 3 finish, VegasSlotsOnline News spoke to Lloyd Roberts, Head of Studio for Blue Guru Games.
“The team is touched by the recognition and gratitude. This year has seen the introduction of some truly incredible slots, and it is quite fulfilling to be held up beside them after so much effort from all involved.
Every project has its share of difficulties, and Aussies vs. Emus was no exception. It��s a unique, highly volatile math model, so balancing the experience for the player was a complex task for all involved. Overall, the build was an exceptionally fun experience, and connecting the mechanics to the narrative was a joy.
Several prominent streamers have taken on Aussies vs EMus, with several mega wins along the way. The theme seems to have captivated many, and it has been entertaining to watch some players realise that the novel concept is based on truth.
As is typically the case, 2024 will see an emphasis on quality above quantity. We have a great mechanic and a tale to tell based on one of the most fascinating races ever contested, just in time for this year’s
Olympics. Of course, throughout the year, we’ll be sharing fascinating narratives and engaging mechanics.“
The slot that occupies the number 2 spot on our list is the Gargantoonz online slot, another awesome addition to the Play��n GO catalog.
Win up to 7,000x your stake when playing the Gargantoonz online slot, an addition to the Reactoonz series by Play��n GO. The game comes with a cute alien theme that offers a fitting soundtrack that keeps you engaged. The colors are bright, and the animations are interactive to help you keep your eye on the prize.
When it comes to features, the Gargantoonz slot leaves very little to be desired. The first feature is the Fluctuation, which is when a one-eyed symbol is chosen at random to fluctuate on each round. If they win, 1 or 2 Quantum Wilds appear where a symbol was removed.
Then there��s the Discharge feature, which is when between 4 and 8 Quantum Wilds may be added to the grid randomly on any non-winning round.
Winning cluster symbols are removed from the reels and added to the Experiment Charger. Once you��ve collected 20 symbols, an experiment is randomly selected to take place at the end of the cascade feature. You can have up to three experiments during the same game round.
Unique wilds are added to the grid at the start of an experiment, triggering all existing wilds to turn into the same wild. Wilds move around the reels to collect their symbols before returning to the Experiment Charger. You��ll overcharge it when collecting 40 additional symbols, at which point the Gargantoonz multiplier increases by +1.
The first experiment is the Gamma Ray Burst, which is when between 7 and 9 wilds are added to random positions on the grid. Then there��s the Black Hole, where between 4 and 6 wilds are added to the grid. You��ll get between 3 and 5 wilds with the Supernova experiment.
Each successful experiment charges the Gargantoon Charger, making the Gargantoon evolve. It starts with a multiplier of 1x and increases up to 4x. Completing all three experiments successfully triggers the Gargantoonz feature, which is where 8 1×1 Gargantoon wilds appear on the grid and remain to merge even if they form part of a win. These merge into 2×2 Gargantoon wilds and later into 3×3 Gargantoon wilds.
To congratulate them on their runners-up spot,?VegasSlotsOnline News?spoke to Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador for Play��n GO.
“We��re very pleased to see both Gargantoonz and Sweet Alchemy 2 recognised in this way. At Play��n GO, we��re always looking to build upon our favourite IPs with sequels, and it��s no surprise that both of these successful games are expansions of already existing stories. We believe that the story of each game is as important as the mechanics, and both Gargantoonz and Sweet Alchemy 2 are borne of engaging story arcs that players love. Both games also offer great development in terms of gameplay.
in Gargantoonz, in my opinion we kept the best parts of the “toonz-series”
In Sweet Alchemy 2, players get to experience the game growing in size, where each win during a spin increases the potential of reaching the bonus round, where players can truly win big, with an up to 25x multiplier. Meanwhile, in Gargantoonz, in my opinion we kept the best parts of the “toonz-series”, but we also branched off slightly, introducing new game features that players won��t have seen before. The game revolves around ��wild�� symbols, with players hoping to access those unique features.“
We��ve made it all the way to number one, and we��re proud to name the Rabbit Garden slot machine by Pragmatic Play the best new online slot of 2023, an animal-themed game that could win you up to 10,000x your stake.
Find your way around the farm as you spin the seven reels of the Rabbit Garden online slot. The game comes with a catchy tune that keeps you engaged as you play to collect clusters of five or more matching symbols.
Winning combinations disappear from the reels to trigger the tumble feature. New symbols drop down the reels to give you the chance to achieve a second cluster. This continues until there are no new clusters, at which point you��ll receive the collective prize.
Keep an eye out for the Coin Collection symbols. These appear randomly on the reels to reward you with a random money value of between 1x and 1,000x your stake each. You can receive 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12 coins during the same spin. You��ll collect the prize value when landing them adjacent to a winning cluster.
Hit four or more scatter symbols to trigger the Rabbit Garden slot��s free spins round. You��ll start off with 5 spins, each one guaranteed to drop Coin Collection symbols in random positions. You��ll have 4 during the first spin, 6 during the second, etc.
Any winning combination you achieve during this round is collected as points in the meter. You��ll reach level 2 when collecting 30 points, along with a 2x multiplier that applies to all wins and Coins. Collect 45, 60, and 90 points during the respective rounds to reach levels 3, 4, and 5, which come with multipliers of 3x, 5x, and 10x respectively. Each new level comes with a new set of 5 free spins.
VegasSlotsOnline News?spoke to Pragmatic Play to congratulate them on claiming the top spot in our Top 20 Online Slots of 2023!

]]>It��s the end of the year and we��ve seen thousands of new releases from top industry providers. The question is, which are the ones worth playing? Join us as we go on a two-part journey to discover the Top 20 Best New Online Slots 2023. From interactive bonus rounds to unique themes and massive potential wins, these games have got it all. Let��s begin with our countdown �C this part starts from number 20 and takes us all the way to number 11.
Drop down into the mines and play over the 10 paylines within the Dynamite Frenzy online slot, a suspenseful Light & Wonder creation.
Head on down into the mines as you spin the five reels of the Dynamite Frenzy slot machine. The game��s protagonist, the dwarf, stands to the left of the screen, moving along to a catchy yet adventurous tune. You��ll see pink crystals in barrels all along the game��s background.
The first feature of the Dynamite Frenzy slot is the wild, which is a golden symbol with the word ��WILD�� in pink crystals on top. This raises the odds of you grabbing a prize by substituting for all regular symbols in the game.
Next, you��ve got the Cash Symbols, which take on the form of bronze, silver, or gold rocks that, depending on the color, come with a multiplier ranging between 2x and 50x. You will collect the multipliers when they fall in view of the dwarf scatter symbol.
Dwarves also trigger the Dynamite Respin, during which up to 14 dynamite symbols can be added to random positions on the reels. At the end of the respin, each dynamite symbol explodes to reveal either a cash or bonus symbol. Dwarves then collect multipliers and apply them to your current stake before paying out your final prize.
Land 3, 4, or 5 bonus scatters anywhere on the reels to receive 6, 8, or 10 free spins on the Dynamite Frenzy online slot. Your chances of catching a dwarf here are much higher, thus you��ll have more possibilities of triggering the Dynamite Respin.

Move your head to the beat as you spin the Psycho DJ online slot, a NoLimit City creation with five reels and four rows that form the DJ mixer. You��ll find everything from yellow smiley faces to pink crowns, purple skulls, and green leaves to keep you interested as you collect cluster wins.
Some symbols fall with crosses on them. This triggers a transformation into a different symbol of the same value (high or low). Newly formed symbols can transform into wilds, thus increasing your chances to win. Symbols may also achieve this when the Break feature (up and down directions) and the Bite feature (diagonal) features trigger.
The xKnob symbol turns wild and adds a minimum +1 to the overall multiplier affecting any win you achieve during that round. When appearing in the Psycho Spinz, this feature becomes sticky.
The xBPM symbol turns wild when landing. It then doubles its size for each symbol on that row.
The Beat Bar to the right of the grid tracks the progress of the multipliers of each colored symbol. Each time a color connects, it adds 1 to the corresponding color. This resets at the end of the spin. If all colors reach a 3x multiplier on the Beat Bar, you��ll receive 5 free spins in Gees! Spinz mode. You��ll receive two more spins for any color on the Beat Bar that triggers during this round.
You��ll trigger the Psycho Spinz when reaching the 5x multiplier on all colored symbols in the Beat Bar. You��ll receive t17 free spins with a general multiplier that is sticky, guaranteeing hits and avalanches, which is when winning symbols are removed from the reels to create room for new ones to fall.
Activate the Boosted xBet for 235% your stake to triple your chances of hitting Gees! Spinz and to increase your chances to enjoy Psycho Spinz by 7x. You can also guarantee your entry by using the buy feature and purchasing your preferred feature.
