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.

Independent evaluation highlights impact of Ygam’s parent programme

An independent evaluation has provided compelling evidence that Ygam’s work is effectively equipping families with the tools and knowledge to safeguard children from gaming and gambling harms.
The evaluation report, conducted by Sherbert Research, examined Ygam’s programme tailored for parents and carers, which includes online workshops, resources, and the Family Hub website.
The evaluation, assessed against Ygam’s comprehensive Theory of Change, found ‘strong evidence across all groups’ of increased understanding of gaming and gambling harms and their impact on behaviour change and the wellbeing of children and young people. It also highlighted that parents regard Ygam as a trusted source of support and information on these subjects.
After attending a Ygam workshop, parents expressed a deeper understanding of their role in supporting children and young people on these issues. The workshops were credited with reducing stigma around gaming and gambling harms and encouraging greater engagement from families. Many parents reported proactively understanding the risks and feeling empowered to start conversations with their children about gaming and gambling, putting boundaries in place before harm occurs.
While parents and professionals are increasingly aware of the risks associated with gaming, fewer recognise children’s potential exposure to gambling and gambling-like features, along with the related harms. The report reinforces that Ygam’s work plays a vital role in closing this critical knowledge gap through awareness raising, offering effective safeguarding tools, and providing the guidance and support required to create a safer digital home environment.
The programme was also commended for shifting perceptions around video gaming and microtransactions. They described taking immediate proactive steps such as adjusting screen time, understanding app spending, and setting clearer rules around their child’s online habits.
One parent who took part in the evaluation said: “After the session, I checked my son’s gaming account and realised he had spent over £200 on in-game purchases. We talked about it, and I’ve now set up parental controls.”
The high quality and standard of Ygam’s educational content was also praised by parents, with many describing it as ‘one of the best’ workshops they had attended for addressing a topical and complex issue, and for delivering accessible knowledge that supports real-life action.
Another parent said: ” A friend mentioned Ygam after I shared concerns about my son’s gaming habits. She had been on the course and said it had really helped her understand how to manage screen time”.
Claire Patel, Programme Lead for the Parents and Carers programme at Ygam, said: “We welcome the findings of this evaluation, which highlight the widespread and meaningful difference our programme is making for families. Parents and carers know their children better than anyone, and they have a crucial role to play – but they consistently tell us they often feel under-informed in today’s fast-moving digital world. We remain committed to listening to families and providing the information and tools they need to promote healthy habits and safeguard their children from potential harms.”
The evaluation was informed by interviews and video diaries from parents, foster carers, and professionals who attended Ygam workshops between 2023 and 2024.
All recommendations for improvement will be incorporated into the ongoing review and development of Ygam’s programmes to ensure they remain as effective and impactful as possible.
