During the base game, if the player matches symbols in any position on three or more adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel to the rightmost, they achieve a winning combination with only the longest matching combo per symbol being paid.

The 4×1 wild symbols can appear on reels two, three and four and will always nudge to be fully visible. For every nudge, the win multiplier will increase by one.

When there are no respins left, or if all the 12 value symbols have landed, the coin values are added together and a Wheel of Fortune appears with the possibility of multiplying the players total winnings.

Additionally, if the player lands three scatter symbols on reels two, three and four, they will be awarded eight free spins.

Chatting to CasinoBeats, Axisa walks us through the major milestones for the company in the last few months before outlining some of the key territories for expansion later in the year.

CasinoBeats: Firstly, can you begin by giving our readers an introduction to yourself – who you are and what your role at Booming Games entails?

AA: I started out as an account manager here, but back in 2021, I switched things up and moved into the sales department. 

Being the Head of Sales means I’m in charge of the sales crew, driving up the revenue, and playing a big role in the company’s overall achievements. It’s been an amazing ride so far, and I can’t wait to see where the future takes me in the always-exciting igaming world.

CasinoBeats: It’s been a busy first half of the year – what would you say have been some of the biggest milestones for Booming Games so far?

AA: It’s been very busy and very exciting indeed. First of all, we’ve unlocked new territories with licences for the UK and SGA, we`ve also managed to enter the Netherlands, Colombia and Spain. Those strategic moves enable for us many new possibilities to grow our European and LatAm presence. 

We also need to mention new partnerships with top tier operators, such as Kindred, Rivalo, TonyBet, Snai and Bingoal, which boosted our games performance. 

Our slots have been climbing the charts, with Leprechaun’s Lucky Barrel and BabyBloomers rocking AskGamblers as the best seasonal games to play. Hold onto your hats – PayDay Pig is making a name for itself as one of the top five new UK online slots for 2023. And the talk of the town? Dog Heist Shift ‘n’ Win, stealing hearts with its catchy theme, Cash Collect feature and mind-bending Shift ‘N’ Win mechanics.

But the adventure doesn’t stop there. We were shortlisted for big awards like EGR B2B Mobile Gaming Software Supplier and Slot Game Provider of the Year at the SiGMA Awards Americas 2023.

The first half of the year has been a whirlwind, and we’re gearing up for even more excitement ahead.

CasinoBeats: As we understand, you’ve made progress in entering three new markets this year – Netherlands, Colombia and Spain. Why did you choose to enter these markets in particular?  Have you found that players within these markets show a preference for particular Booming Games titles? 

AA: Absolutely, entering the Netherlands, Colombia and Spain has been a strategic move for us. These markets have shown immense potential and align perfectly with our growth vision.

In the Netherlands, the vibrant gaming culture and the recent regulatory changes presented an exciting opportunity. Players there have a knack for engaging gameplay, which resonates well with our titles. Colombia for instance, with its rapidly expanding igaming scene, provided us a chance to tap into a dynamic player base seeking innovative entertainment. 

Our games’ unique features have certainly caught their attention. Spain, a key hub for online gaming, felt like a natural fit. Players appreciate our diverse portfolio, and the market’s appetite for fresh, engaging content has allowed us to shine.

In all three markets, we’ve observed players showing a clear excitement for Booming Games titles. Our focus on immersive gameplay, captivating themes, and innovative mechanics has struck a chord with them. It’s an exciting journey, and we’re thrilled to be part of their gaming experiences.

CasinoBeats: You recently acquired both a UKGC and SGA licence. How will these two new licences enable Booming Games to expand its European footprint?

AA: Obtaining both the UKGC and SGA licences was a significant achievement for us and a meticulous process. These licences mark a pivotal moment for Booming Games. With the UKGC and SGA certifications in hand, we’re empowered to expand our European presence significantly. 

These licences act as stamps of approval, showcasing our commitment to responsible gaming and compliance. They open doors to new partnerships with reputable operators, allowing players across the UK and Sweden to experience our innovative titles.

These licences definitely strengthen our position in the European market and amplify our ability to deliver top-notch entertainment to a broader audience. We’re excited for the journey ahead.

CasinoBeats: Tell us about some of the exclusive releases that you’ve launched this year – how important are exclusive titles when it comes to building long-term engagement with players?

AA: Exclusive releases are very important for us, as they play a crucial role in fostering long-term player engagement. We’ve had the pleasure of introducing some exciting exclusive titles to the gaming world, such as BetFlag’s Gold Gold Gold, StarCasino’s King Cobra, and BetVictor’s Pinata Wildz and more.

Exclusive titles hold a special place in building lasting relations. They offer players a unique experience and tend to generate higher levels of engagement due to their novelty and the sense of being part of an exclusive club. 

Players are more likely to explore and immerse themselves in these games, fostering a stronger bond with the game and the brand. This translates to longer playtimes, increased interaction, and a more dedicated player base. So those releases definitely elevate the gaming experience to a whole new level and contribute significantly to our long-term success in the industry.

CasinoBeats: How do you ensure that Booming Games slots stand the test of time?

AA: It is, of course, an ongoing journey that involves rigorous testing, continuous learning, and constant refinement.

We follow a meticulous process of analysis, examining the performance of our games to pinpoint what resonates most effectively within specific markets. This involves understanding player preferences, trends, and evolving gaming dynamics. By delving into these insights, we uncover valuable lessons that guide us in crafting experiences that players truly love.

Our commitment to quality and longevity is evident in our portfolio. We have a few games that were introduced several years ago, yet they continue to reign as top performers. This speaks to our dedication to crafting games that stand the test of time, thanks to their engaging gameplay, innovative features, and timeless appeal.

So, the approach combines a blend of data-driven insights, player feedback and a dedication to innovation. By consistently fine-tuning our offerings, we ensure that Booming Games slots remain captivating and enjoyable for players, maintaining their popularity and relevance over the years.

CasinoBeats: What can we expect to see from Booming Games in 2023 and beyond?

As Booming Games enters Brazil’s gaming market next year, the nation’s online casino player base will gain access to slots provided by the studio, including Burning Classics, Gold Gold Gold, TNT Bonanza 2, Cash Pig, Buffalo Hold and Win Extreme.

The nation’s passion for football could also see its player base endeared by Booming Games’ series of slots featuring Brazilian icon Ronaldinho, with Ronaldinho Spins set to hit the market. 

While Booming Games’ Brazilian certification sees suppliers begin to prepare for the nation’s regulated market launch, online casino operators have been expressing their commitment to the market by applying for a gambling licence. 

In August, a total of 113 casino operators had registered in a bid to operate in the Latin American nation.

Betano has been the host of the game, which features the Brazilian football icon and is set to kick off a series of football themed games for the supplier. 

It feeds into a theme for Betano, having also backed the key tournaments this Summer as the key sponsor of the EUROs and the Copa.

Speaking to SlotBeats, Frederik Niehusen, Chief Commercial Officer at Booming Games, revealed: “Players and operators can look forward to a diverse offering within the Ronaldinho Series, featuring various game types that are not only entertaining but also distinctly different from one another. 

“Each game in the series will showcase unique graphics and innovative gameplay mechanics, ensuring there’s something fresh and exciting for every player. We’re committed to expanding the Ronaldinho series with high-quality, engaging games that continue to celebrate Ronaldinho’s legendary career and appeal to a global audience of gaming enthusiasts.”

In terms of tapping into licence opportunities and various branding partnerships, he added: “As we look ahead, we see tremendous value in continuing to create branded content with the right partners, which we believe is very beneficial for our company’s growth. We are actively collaborating with other brands and personalities to develop and launch unique games that resonate with our audience.”

Players can now immerse themselves in this exceptional product, boasting thrilling graphics, exciting mechanics, and generous bonuses, experiencing the magic of Ronaldinho’s legacy with every spin.

Antonio Lamagna, Head of RNG at Kaizen Gaming, also spoke glowingly about the impact of the game, adding they are ‘beyond excited to be among the first operators to offer this fantastic product to our players’. 

He continued: “The collaboration between Booming Games and Ronaldinho Gaúcho has brought exceptional gaming experience, and we are thrilled to offer it through our platform. This partnership underscores our commitment to providing our players with top-notch entertainment and further solidifies our position as a leading operator in the industry. We can’t wait for our players to dive into Ronaldinho Spins and experience the excitement firsthand.”

Slot of the Week

Megacity Football Fever – BF Games

BF Games tapped into the international football action taking place across the next month by launching its latest slot release, Megacity Football Fever, which claimed SlotBeats’ Slot of the Week award with instant prizes and progressive free spins. 

With players hoping to land as many instant win-paying football symbols as possible, the slot presents a 5×3 reel slot with 50-paylines and a maximum win of up to x2,000 the player’s stake. The game has high volatility with an RTP of 96.12 per cent. 

Low value symbols are represented by playing card royals, with Jacks, Queens, Kings and Aces, while whistles, football boots and goalkeeper gloves depict the medium value symbols.

High value symbols come in the form of gold lucky sevens. If the right number of winning combinations land on a single spin, these symbols can offer between x0.6 and x20 the player’s stake. 

Special Football symbols can also drop into play, awarding instant prizes when three or more appear on the same spin. Football payout prizes work as follows: 

• Landing three on the same spin awards x1 
• Landing four on the same spin awards x2
• Landing five on the same spin awards x5
• Landing six on the same spin awards x10
• Landing seven on the same spin awards x25
• Landing eight on the same spin awards x50
• Landing nine on the same spin awards x100
• Landing 10 on the same spin awards x200
• Landing 11 on the same spin awards x500
• Landing 12, 13, 14 or 15 on the same spin awards x2,000

Free spins text scatters are available on reels one, three and five, triggering an initial three spins when three scatters land on the same turn.

In these free spins, the aim is to land five football symbols on the reels in order to upgrade the feature to its next level. 

At the next level, the board will increase to 5×4 size while players need to land 10 football symbols to activate the next level, which has a 5×5 size board. 

At this level, players need 15 symbols to get to the next 5×6-sized level, then needing 20 to get to the level after that with a board size of 5×7. 

Following that, 25 and 30 symbols are needed to unlock the 5×8 and 5×9 levels, before needing 35 symbols in the final level to unlock the grand football prize of x2,000 the player’s bet on a 5×10 board. 

When players fail to land the number of football symbols needed to reach the next level, they will return to the base game while gaining the prize value represented by the level they made it to. 

Lastly, wild text symbols can appear in both the base and bonus game modes, substituting for all symbols other than free spins scatters and football symbols. 

Featured slots

Stampede Bonanza – Booming Games

Buffalos raced across the reel set in the latest slot from Booming Games, transporting players to North American deserts for a 6×5 reel slot with scatter-combinations of eight or more identical symbols needed to form wins. 

Cascading wins also occur, causing winning symbols to disappear after providing their payout, making way for new symbols to drop in from above the reels. 

Moritz Blume, Director of Product at Booming Games, commented: “Our team has produced yet another great slot that will really capture the imagination of players as they navigate their way through a rugged landscape which is filled with cascading reels, free spins, random wilds and random multipliers. 

“We are always working hard to keep our content fresh, and this is another great example of a game that has all the hallmarks of a Booming Games slot, offering players a fully immersive gameplay experience.”

In the base game, a meter sits above the reel set that progresses when wins are formed with a certain number of symbols on the same spin. 

Landing wins with 18 symbols across different win combinations on the same spin will cause one random wild symbol to be placed on the reels, substituting for all symbols other than the scatter. 

Moreover, landing wins with 40 symbols unlocks a second random wild, while wins with 60 and 90 symbols unlock a third and fourth random wild, respectively. 

Bonus landscape scatters can also appear, triggering 10 free spins when four or more appear on the same spin. Additionally, landing four, five or six scatters on the same spin will award x2, x5 or x20 the player’s wager, respectively. 

In the free spins game mode, landing several win combinations with a certain number of symbols on the same spin can award a random multiplier for said spin. 

These potential multipliers are displayed above the free spins grid and range from x2 to x100. 

Cash Strike Hotstepper – Blueprint Gaming

Blueprint Gaming extended its Cash Strike series with a new coin-shifting feature to increase the win potential, showcasing a 3×3 reel, high-volatility slot with five-paylines and a maximum win of up to x5,000 the player’s wager. 

Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing, PR and Events at Blueprint Gaming, said: “We’re delighted to launch the latest title in our ever-popular Cash Strike series, where a classic slot experience is blended meticulously with innovative fresh mechanics.

“Cash Strike Hotstepper’s cash collect and hotstepper features lead the way, maximising player’s chances of securing major wins and gaining access to the lavish bonus game. Our latest summer release is coming in hot!”

Using a fruit machine theme, low value symbols in the game are represented by fruits such as lemons, plums, cherries, oranges, grapes and watermelons. Meanwhile, bells, gold stars and lucky sevens depict the high value symbols. 

Gold coin symbols can appear on the first and third reel, displaying monetary prizes that can be claimed when a special Cash Strike coin lands in the middle reel. These coins can also present jackpot prizes of mini (x25), minor (x50), major (x150) or grand (x1,000). 

Cash Strike coins can only appear in the middle reel, collecting the values of all gold coins that appear on the same spin.

For the hotstepper feature, when Cash Strike coins land on the first or second row on the middle reel, they will stay sticky on the reels for the subsequent two or one spins, moving down one position on the reel per spin. 

If the Cash Strike coin lands on the same spin that gold coins appear in reels one and three, the Cash Strike bonus game will be activated. This awards three spins where the Cash Strike stays sticky on the reels. 

When additional gold coins land on the reels in this feature, not only will they have their prizes collected by the Cash Strike coin, but they will reset the number of spins to three. 

Moreover, every gold coin or Cash Strike symbol that appears will be added to a cash blast meter above the reels.

Once several coins have been collected, the cash blast feature can randomly be triggered to add enough gold coins and collect symbols to the reels to trigger the Cash Strike bonus game.
