First Look Games extends partnership with Scientific Games
Tier one developer’s full suite of slots now available via First Look Games’ innovative Demo Game Server allowing affiliates to offer “freeplay” games to their readers
First Look Games, the platform that directly connects game studios with online gambling affiliates, has extended its partnership with tier one developer Scientific Games, with the provider’s 458 most prominent slots now available on its Demo Game Server.
First Look Games launched its Demo Game Server (DGS) last year, allowing affiliates to offer once again free to play versions of a provider’s slots while remaining compliant with the Gambling Commission of Great Britain’s rules and regulations.
The DGS includes cutting age ID verification technology from “1account”; in the event of a successful verification, the user can then access the free to play game.
The addition of Scientific Games is a major coup for First Look Games, with the developer’s full suite of slots also added to its Game Library. This means affiliates can now download assets, such as logos, images and videos, as well as key information for all of the provider’s titles.
From this, they can then create engaging and informative content such as game reviews and comparisons and publish them to their readers alongside the correct logos and images.
First Look Games also allows developers to push notifications about network promotions, bonus campaigns and operator partnerships to affiliate members, further increasing potential exposure for their games and brands.
Tom Galanis, Founder of First Look Games, said: “We are thrilled to have extended our partnership with Scientific Games and for the provider’s full suite of slots to now be available to affiliates via our Demo Game Server.
“Freeplay games are a powerful engagement and conversion tool for affiliates and to be able to offer games from one of the biggest providers in the business will significantly help publishers capture reader interested and drive first time depositors.”
Dylan Slaney, SVP Gaming, at Scientific Games Digital, said: “We are delighted to build on our existing partnership with First Look Games to provide affiliates with the option to offer free to play versions of our games to their readers, driving awareness of and engagement with our slots, whilst elevating the high compliance standards we hold as a business.
“The role of affiliates is extremely important, to provide players with the information and insight they are seeking about our games and now they can also allow them to play for free and explore what they are looking for from particular games before heading to a casino to play for real.”

SOFTSWISS Spotlight: Top Highlights from SBC Lisbon
The SBC Summit, first held in Lisbon, made its mark on the iGaming industry, just as SOFTSWISS did with its notable anniversary presence at the event.
Eighty SOFTSWISS delegates attended the SBC Summit Lisbon, hosting their partners at the company’s largest stand in history – a 288m² space. Partners, clients, and industry peers gathered at the stand to celebrate SOFTSWISS’s 15th anniversary. With ‘Cheers!’, lively discussions, and a spirit of collaboration, guests explored future business opportunities, forged new partnerships, and discovered new avenues for growth.
Among the highlights was the chance for clients to meet with SOFTSWISS founder Ivan Montik and Formula 1 legend Rubens Barrichello to discuss business insights.
Montik and Barrichello shared their leadership experiences on the main stage during the Leaders Summit, engaging the audience with invaluable lessons. Ivan Montik took on the role of interviewer, drawing out key leadership insights from Rubens Barrichello, who spoke about the critical lessons he learned as a Formula 1 driver and how he applies them to business as a leader. The event, tailored for leaders, offered inspiration to everyone in attendance.
From the stage, Rubens Barrichello reflected on the importance of practice and adaptability: “Natural ability can take you far, but without practice and repetition, it’s not enough. In both racing and business, it’s about adapting quickly, refocusing, and constantly improving to handle whatever comes your way.” He added on teamwork and leadership: “Success comes when there’s a balance in the team. Whether racing or running a business, trust among team members and knowing everyone’s role is key. A good leader isn’t just someone who gives orders but listens, learns, and works closely with their team.”
During his speech, Ivan Montik commented on leadership in business: “In today’s fast-paced world, leaders need to be adaptable and ready to make decisions on the fly. It’s not just about managing tasks but about motivating your team, fostering trust, and allowing everyone to contribute to the organisation’s success.”
The three days in Lisbon were filled with memorable moments, including the Grand Party celebrating SOFTSWISS’s 15th anniversary, attended by over 500 guests in the best venue in the city. The legendary DJ Benny Benassi took the stage, energizing the audience and turning the celebration into an unforgettable night.
A standout highlight was the Track Day led by Rubens Barrichello, where participants learned directly from the Formula 1 legend. Rubens guided the group through various high-performance driving experiences, including sessions in a Formula 4 car, Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, and Porsche 718. He provided real-time guidance, performance feedback, and expert insights, teaching participants advanced driving skills and techniques, making it an unforgettable learning experience.
SOFTSWISS will shine again at its next major appearance at SIGMA Malta in November 2024.

BGaming releases first-ever celebrity-branded slot Snoop Doggy Dollars
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming has teamed up with famous rapper and record producer Snoop Dogg to create an iconic new slot, Snoop Dogg Dollars.
The themed game is BGaming’s first branded content in collaboration with a celebrity and was exclusively launched with Roobet on 25th September, before going live across the wider network on 30th October.
With Snoop Dogg recording his own voiceover for the game, and the addition of a laid-back hip-hop soundtrack, this unforgettable slot comes at the perfect time — after the Doggfather was seen kicking off the Paris Olympics this summer.
In this collaboration between BGaming, Roobet, and Casinolytics, players enjoy performing cluster-pay mechanics where five or more matching symbols form a cluster to win. Each winning cluster marks its cell, and if the next win occurs on a marked cell, a multiplier is added starting from x2 and increasing by a further x2 for every new win on the cell.
When the symbols of a winning cluster have disappeared and the cells remain empty, a bonus symbol can be ‘dug up’. These four symbols include Scatters, Wilds, Weed and Skull icons.
Weed symbols upgrade all multipliers and then disappear, while Skullss clear low symbols and trigger a refill. 3–6 Scatters award 10, 12, 15, or 20 Free Spins and convert into Wilds or x10 multipliers for the duration of the Bonus game. Bonus Buy options and the Snoop Spin feature provide guaranteed sticky Wilds for added chances of winning.
Through this landmark collaboration, BGaming demonstrates its expertise in co-creation and unrivalled position as a trusted partner to some of the industry’s biggest names.
Alexandr Shavel, Product Owner at BGaming, said: “Snoop Dogg is one of the world’s best-known rappers with a legacy that spans decades, and he remains as high-profile as ever.
“With an inspired hip-hop soundtrack and an unmistakable West Coast setting, players will be transported to an immersive world where hip-hop reigns supreme. Snoop Dogg Dollars is a celebration of Snoop Dogg’s career, and we want players to join in the appreciation of the true master of his craft.”
Roobet commented: “We’ve really enjoyed producing this slot with BGaming. Their team showed great talent, creativity and perseverance while developing the game and we’re very happy with the end result.”
