RAW iGaming signs industry heavyweights as CTO and COO
Ricardo Ruiz and Henrik Fagerlund join fast-growing studio that recently launched its first two titles powered by its innovative SuperSlice® engine
RAW iGaming, the new innovative online slot developer, has strengthened its senior management team with the appointment of two industry heavyweights, Ricardo Ruiz and Henrik Fagerlund.
RAW iGaming was founded in March 2021 by industry veteran Tom Wood and has already driven massive interest for its new and innovative SuperSlice® concept. It now plans to build out its management team as it continues to grow at pace.
Ruiz joins as Chief Technology Officer and will use his strong academic background in computer science and more than ten years industry experience to further develop and improve the architectural and technical foundation of the business.
He moves to RAW from Videoslots where he was CTO and was responsible for bringing forth technical growth and innovation for the operator as well as launching its platform in multiple regulated markets around the world. He has also held CTO roles at Native Sevilla and M-Bet Tanzania.
Ricardo Ruiz, Chief Technology Officer at RAW iGaming, said: “I am super passionate about technology, gaming and product innovation and with RAW I get all my boxes checked.
“It’s such a great time to jump on board, with so much achieved already but still with everything in front of us. I look forward to building new technology, culture and a new team that’s going to disrupt the industry in the most spectacular way.”
Fagerlund has been appointed to the role of Chief Operating Officer at RAW iGaming and has been tasked with ensuring the provider operates with reliability and to the highest possible standards. His experience is unrivalled having held senior roles at GTECH and Paf.
He joins RAW from provider powerhouse Evolution Gaming where he was Managing Director of Malta for NetEnt and Director of Product Innovation for Evolution. He will now focus on driving company operations including strategy, product development and sales.
Henrik Fagerlund, Chief Operations Officer at RAW iGaming, said: “I truly love the iGaming industry for being so dynamic and ever changing but the one thing I feel is missing is true innovation.
“When I met Tom and he showed me the SuperSlice® concept and the other stuff he is cooking up I felt like real innovation was here and something I wanted to be a part of. Tom explained this is what RAW is about, shaking things up, innovating, and truly avoiding the sea of sameness.
“That hit the target for me and it’s an absolute honour to join RAW. Here I can bring all my experience, passion and energy to the table and help make a difference.”
Tom Wood, CEO of RAW iGaming, said: “Adding Ricardo and Henrik further establishes RAW’s focus on excellence and quality.
“Ricardo will ensure the technical security and viability of our platforms while Henrik will bring to bear his incredible wealth of knowledge in iGaming and will ensure our teams deliver to the quality levels and innovation which RAW will be known for.
“I feel so honoured they have chosen RAW, and both together will ensure stability during RAW’s quick expansion.”

Cubeia goes live with its Poker 2.0 platform

Cubeia, a Sweden-based iGaming software solutions provider, has launched its highly anticipated Poker 2.0 platform. The latest version features a state-of-the-art multi-threaded game engine written entirely in Java 21 and a new and improved graphical UI.
As a celebration, Cubeia’s Hybrid Poker Network is running a 4-week Beta Test Series, where players are encouraged to report any bugs they experience for a chance to earn rewards of up to $55 in tournament tickets. The new server engine is designed to easily handle player loads in the six-digit range and has future-proof capabilities, such as exposing a poker lobby API to other providers – given the right deal.
One of the many advantages that the server upgrade brings is its ease of feature implementation – thread safety is built-in, removing the need for developers to worry about implementing new platform features. The technical debt has dissipated facilitating updates to be performed quickly and efficiently.
This release comes at the perfect time as there are a number of operators lined up to launch during the remainder of the year. Cubeia is looking forward to not only expanding its poker network but also accommodating operator feature requests with greater agility.
Cubeia’s Head of Poker Simon Isbäck commented: “After about a year and a half worth of development, we can finally clap each other’s backs and be proud of what we’ve accomplished! On Thursday, I will be looking forward to hosting a huge launch party for the entire team! New features will drop faster than ever, and we’re looking forward to launching many industry-relevant features as well as some brand new ones. This is only the beginning!”

Spinomenal releases Wolf & Piggies Chase

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its latest game in its Adventures Series, Wolf & Piggies Chase. The two arch enemies meet again on a picturesque farmyard surrounded by rolling hills, smiling animals, and huge haystacks. A playful soundtrack ensures a jovial mood for all as players look for Golden Piggy Bank symbols to activate Free Spins.
Players who land on three Golden Piggy Bank symbols will be awarded 10 Free Spins. Four will award 15 Free Spins and five will award 20 Free Spins. In Free Spins only, the Wolf Wild can substitute for all other symbols except for the scattered Free Spins symbol.
Spinomenal’s Instant Cash feature comes into play every time the reel spins and the Instant Cash symbol will randomly show four possible values that are collected in Free Spins. Instant Cash symbols accumulate during the round before they increase the Free Spins metre at the top of the reels.
Once four Wild symbols are found, players will win 10 additional free spins and on all future spins until the free spins finish. It also means that the Small Instant Cash symbol (pays x2 or x5 of the total bet) transforms into a Medium Instant Cash symbol which pays out x10 or x15 of the total bet.
Eight Wild symbols found means players will collect six further free spins on all future spins until the free spins end. The Medium Instant Cash symbols turn into Large Instant Cash symbols, which pays out x20 or x25 of the total bet.
After securing 12 Wild symbols, players collect another four additional free spins and on all future spins until the free spins end. This then pushes players into the final level where the Huge Instant Cash symbol is engaged and pays either x50 or x2000 the total bet.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Players will love this fun and feature-packed farm adventure. Wolf & Piggies Chase is a vibrant, colourful addition to our much-loved Adventures Series.”

Belatra releases explosive instant game Mummy’s Mines

Belatra, a leading developer of innovative online slots, has released Mummy’s Mines, an instant game inspired by one of the studio’s most successful titles – Mummyland Treasures.
This version is an all-new instant game adventure that blends suspense, strategy, and ancient treasure-hunting excitement. Before diving into the action, players must select the battlefield: a 3×3, 4×4, or 5×5 grid. Then, it’s a choice on how many mines to face – more mines mean higher potential multipliers – the ultimate risk-reward quandary.
Mummy Mines is set within an eerie underground tomb surrounded by Egyptian artefacts. This fast-paced title challenges players to uncover hidden Scarabs, avoid deadly traps, and chase a glistening Jackpot.
Every successful tile revealed carries players further into the forgotten depths, where fortunes lie buried and danger lurks just beneath the surface. There is also a chance to unearth the special Jackpot Spin. When players uncover a Jackpot tile, a reel spins to determine their fate – landing on a Coin grants a bonus win, a Mine ends the game, and the coveted Jackpot symbol awards the full accumulated prize. As the jackpot value edges closer to its limit, the display starts flashing red, signalling that the treasure is almost ripe for the taking. If the pressure becomes too much, players can take the chance to cash out any accumulated winnings. Belatra’s newest title combines the unique atmosphere of Mummyland Treasures with fresh mechanics that deliver thrilling gameplay in every round.
Sergey Chernyavski, Belatra Games’ CCO, said: “Mummy’s Mines is an explosive hit that is a bold new entry in Belatra’s instant game lineup – offering quick games, big risks, and even bigger rewards. The game honours the charm of the original and players will love seeing the much-loved Mummy character in a new style of game.”
