Mobile-first games developer OneTouch has announced the release of its latest slot, Queens of Glory Legacy, a thrilling follow-up to the studio’s hit title, Queens of Glory. 

The opulent title features several glistening symbols, each being themed around the luxurious world of royalty. Allowing these symbols to burst through the screen is a captivating blend of audio-visuals, delivering an immersive experience.

Taking the gameplay to new heights is the offer of three Free Game modes, each one handed out by three generous princesses. Players have the chance to win Ruby, Emerald and Rose Free Games, if they can collect ten gems of the same colour.

The lucky few that manage to collect ten gems, will win ten rounds of the featured Free Games. Each Free Game functions differently, giving players a more diverse experience, as well as one which is highly captivating.

In the Ruby Free Game, the first spin brings the addition of extra Wilds which stick to the screen for the rest of the mode. While the Emerald version sees each win with at least one Wild multiplied by a random multiplier. Lastly, Rose Free Games features Sticky Wilds, with each one remaining until the end.

With such a diverse offering, the follow-up title also comes with a Feature Buy option, giving players the chance to shortcut into the many features and providing an easier journey towards the rewards, whilst enhancing player retention and engagement.

Madis Raus, Head of OneTouch, said: “We enjoy delivering new and creative ways to enjoy slots, and our latest release gives players exactly that – with three Free Game modes offering a delightful opportunity to players.

“With the success of the original title, we’re delighted to be offering this follow-up and reimagining a popular release and bringing it into 2022.”

When 5 Votes Make All the Difference: A Special Moment at the GamingTECH CEE Awards

At this year’s GamingTECH CEE Awards, we witnessed something rare—and pretty remarkable—in the “Best iGaming CEO in CEE” category.

With 214 total votes cast across 9 nominees, two names clearly rose to the top, standing apart from a highly competitive field:

  • Vlastimil Venclik, CEO at Oddin.gg
  • Dario Jurčić, CEO at NSoft

But here’s where it gets interesting: the difference between them? Just 5 votes.

That’s right—after weeks of online voting and a live secret ballot from summit participants, the final count came down to a 5-vote margin. In a category filled with respected leaders, innovators, and visionaries, two CEOs clearly resonated with the industry in a big way.

And while only one person can technically take home the winner’s trophy, this razor-thin result was too significant to ignore. So, for the first time in the history of the GamingTECH CEE Awards, we decided to introduce something new:

  • An Honorary Runner-Up Trophy for “Best iGaming CEO in CEE” awarded to Dario Jurčić, CEO of NSoft.

Why This Matters

The intent behind this decision is simple: When excellence is nearly indistinguishable, it deserves to be recognized.

Dario Jurčić has played a vital role in expanding NSoft’s influence, strengthening its presence in new markets, and leading with a people-first approach in a rapidly evolving sector. His visibility, leadership, and impact were clearly acknowledged by the voting community—and with just a handful of votes separating him from the top spot, it felt only right to shine a spotlight on that achievement.

A Testament to a Vibrant Industry

The closeness of this race also speaks volumes about the caliber of leadership we’re seeing in the Central and Eastern European iGaming space. With companies like Oddin.gg and NSoft pushing boundaries in their respective verticals, the region continues to establish itself as a dynamic force in the global gaming landscape.

We congratulate Vlastimil Venclik on his well-earned win, and we extend our heartfelt appreciation and applause to Dario Jurčić for standing out in such a competitive field.

Sometimes, even second place can tell a powerful story—and this year, it certainly did.
