House of Spades Enters the iGaming Space like a Rock Star
Get set to Gamble with the Legends of Rock at cool new rock thematic online casino brand holding exclusive rights with rock icons
The global iGaming market continues to attract attention. In order to be successful, however, operators have to have an edge and brand loyalty. House of Spades has entered the mix as the latest online gaming platform to set its sights on the global stage. It’s not holding anything back, ready to rock gamblers like a hurricane.
House of Spades (HoS) has launched like a well-experienced rock star. Imagine combining luxury with a true rock vibe, well that’s what players get with the House of Spades experience. It brings you back to those true 70’s Rock n’ Roll days where everyone wanted to be “at the Roxy”. Every ounce of House of Spades feels like it’s built for VIPs looking to rock.
Rock’ n’ Roll plays such a large part in the platform’s design that HoS has attracted support from some of the biggest legends in the music business. Alice Cooper ‘the godfather of shock rock’ and Twisted Sister’s lead Dee Snider need no introduction to true rock fans, and both are brand ambassadors for the platform. Having these rock icons as part of the gang and face of the casino leads to exclusive marketing promotions, merchandise deals and branding opportunities not found anywhere else.
House of Spades offers an exclusive fan-to-game loyalty model that takes loyalty to a whole new level and which isn’t found on any other platform. This is a unique model that can be applied to other segments and cultural niches.
House of Spades CEO Pelle Wiman states, “House of Spades is more than just an online casino; it’s a high-class entertainment experience. We’re building a ‘fan-to-game bond’. We also access what-money-can’t-buy treats from our friends, our rock ambassadors and from some of the most legendary bands in the world.
So, with special welcome offers tailored for the fans, rare rock rewards directly from the bands and a cutting-edge product like no other, we are ready to rock the industry.”
Licensed in Malta and Curacao, HoS offers some wickedly awesome games from 90 gaming providers with over 4,000 unique online slots and casino games.
Driving home that rock n’ roll feel, HoS offers a game segment called “The Rock’ n’ Roll Hall of Games”, including Alice Cooper, ZZ Top, KISS, Twisted Sister slots. This is an extensive catalog of 15 top-quality Play’n GO-produced rock-themed games. A growing number of global rock artists and bands are signing up to produce their very own official slot games and House of Spades is in on all the action.
House of Spades offers an action-packed 36-level Achievement program that takes players on a House tour room by room in search for hidden artifacts and keys and rewards players with coins and cash prizes for each accomplished room.
The platform includes weekly challenges and tournaments, all uniquely developed to let it stand out from its competitors. It also boasts a special avatar program of fictional hotel guests and celebrity rock stars to choose from.
Adds Wiman, “The whole industry is based on short-term winnings. It’s a constant chase for the next game that will only be in the spotlight for a short second before they drown in the endless flood of generic slots, and casino brands come and go like pop-up stores. My ambition is to establish brands that align with the actual entertainment content they offer and achieve long term loyalty towards something more substantial than just bonuses and cash prices.”
The platform is live in Finland, Canada, Germany, Poland, New Zealand and Norway, and is looking at expansion throughout Latin America, Japan, India and other parts of the world this year. Because of its global reach, House of Spades readily accepts multiple currency types, including cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Litecoin.
House of Spades was put together by an accomplished team of industry insiders from companies such as Mr Green, Ninja Casino, Global Gaming, Cashmio and Metal Casino. On the team is also a veteran of the music industry who founded the Sweden Rock Festival.
As a result, what has emerged is a platform that knows how to wow the audience and keep players loyal and entertained – the same awesome experience rock legends give in front of their audiences.

Often mandated by regulation, it helps organizations measure the real-world effectiveness of their security controls and incident response capabilities. Additionally, the service provides actionable insights, including prioritized recommendations and industry best practices to address identified vulnerabilities and strengthen overall cybersecurity posture.
Emra Arkansas, Executive Director at Cherokee Tribal Gaming Commission said: “We are sincerely grateful to Continent 8, especially Patrick Gardner, Anthony Engel and Jerad Swimmer, for their partnership and recognition of our ongoing cybersecurity initiatives. The Cherokee Tribal Gaming Commission remains firmly committed to protecting not only our critical infrastructure but also the sovereignty that underpins our regulatory authority.

With Continent 8’s trusted expertise, we are proud to set a higher standard for cybersecurity in Indian Country, ensuring our operations remain secure, resilient and self-determined.”
Patrick Gardner, Chief Security Officer at Continent 8 said: “In response to today’s evolving cyber threat landscape, the Cherokee Tribal Gaming Commission is working to establish a new standard in cybersecurity – and we are proud to support this important initiative.

Nolimit City gets its hands dirty in its latest release, Seamen

Get your mops out, this ship is one big floating mess! Only the dirtiest of sailors can sail the seven seas aboard Nolimit City’s latest release, Seamen. This rowdy slot falls in Nolimit City’s classic slot category with the likes of Brute Force: Alien Onslaught, Stockholm Syndrome and Flight Mode.
If you’re 6ft tall, love the open sea and have a taste for working with seamen, then join the White Pearl today! This ship is used to carrying some big loads.
The only thing that stays clean on deck are the reels! Featuring a 3-5-5-3 setup where winning symbols are paid out before triggering a respin. The multiplier on those winning symbols increases by 1 each respin. On each respin, one extra Fire Frame is added to another position. Each position that gets a Fire Frame has its multiplier increased by +1. Winning symbols with a Fire Frame increase by +2.
xWays®
When people say the more the merrier, no one tells you it’s messier. xWays® Symbols reveal 2-4 symbols of the same kind and increase the number of win ways. If more than one xWays® symbol lands on the reels then all xWays® symbols will reveal the same Symbol.
Molotov Fire
To heat up the reels, Molotov Fire transforms itself into a Wild Symbol and adds Fire Frames to all symbols on its column.
Bombs Away
What’s better than fire? That’s right, boys… I mean bombs! Bombs appear on the reels and explode to remove symbols based on their type. Any symbol removed by a Bomb has its position multiplier increased by +1 or +2 if there is a Fire Frame on that position. Be careful, out at sea there is more than 1 type of bomb:
- Coconut: Removes itself and increases the position multiplier by 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x or 100x, in addition to the standard multiplier increaser.
- Cross Bomb: Removes itself and all regular symbols on its reel and row
- Naval Mine: Removes itself and all low paying symbols on the reel area.
Rigged Spins
Thats weird… the deck is slippery but sticky at the same time. Landing 3 Bonus Symbols will trigger 5 Rigged Spins where position multipliers are kept during all the Free Spins.
Super Rigged Spins
Landing 4 Bonus Symbols will trigger 7 Super Rigged Spins where positions are kept during Free Spins. Additionally, to spice up the deck, more Fire Frames are awarded per spin on average.
Extra Spin
Extra Spin returns! Players might get the opportunity to purchase an additional spin when a round ends. The additional spins will keep the position multiplier, Fire Frames and Bonus Symbols of the previous spin. The cost of the spins is calculated based on position multipliers.
Nolimit Boosters
Don’t get caught with your pants down on the slipway. Prepare yourself with the following Nolimit Boosters:
- Bonus Booster – guarantees a Bonus Symbol on the top position of the second leftmost reel.
- Big Load Spins – guarantees a spin that starts off with 3x multipliers on all positions.
- Bigger Load Spins – guarantees a spin that starts off with 6x multipliers on all positions.
- Coconut Spins – guarantees a spin that starts off with Coconuts on all positions.
Do you have what it takes to join this filthy crew? Seamen has a maximum payout of 20,000x the base bet. Seamen is rated as “Highly Volatile” delivering the thrilling high-stakes gameplay that Nolimit City fans know and love.
Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said: “No comment on this one. What more is there to add besides, it’s always a good time when the boys get together. Fire Frames, Bombs and xWays® combine to make one hell of a splash.”
‘Seamen’ will be available to all Nolimit City partners on August 5th, 2025.

Intralot informs the investment community about the withdrawal of the Maryland contract award Augu

Intralot S.A. informs the investment community that the Maryland State Lottery and Gaming Control Agency (USA), despite an initially favorable recommendation, has ultimately rejected the bid submitted by its subsidiary, Intralot, Inc., for the award of a contract for a new Central Lottery Monitoring and Control System in the State. The rejection was based on the alleged failure to meet the minimum required percentage of subcontracting to local subcontractors.
This decision comes as a great surprise, especially considering that Intralot, Inc. had allocated a significantly higher percentage of the project to local subcontractors than the minimum required.
Moreover, the company had provided the Commission with very detailed clarifications, and the Commission was fully aware of the identity and role of these subcontractors. In fact, the Commission innitially ruled that all participants in the bidding process complied with the requirements of the relevant RFP — something the Commission itself acknowledges.
The Company reserves all its legal rights and intends to pursue every legal remedy available to protect the interests of its shareholders. The bid submitted by Intralot, Inc. is technically sound and by far the most financially advantageous, significantly outperforming the second-best offer. Should it not be accepted, the State of Maryland stands to lose a substantial financial benefit.
