Red Rake Gaming has kicked off the new year by releasing a new 5×3 reel slot game, with a highly retro theme and two main characters – Captain Wild and the villain – who will battle it out to accumulate multipliers, increasing them on the “Intergalactic Wheel” and discovering “Mystery” symbols along the way. A unique battle that will intensify during the free spins feature, where Captain Wild will try to destroy the radioactive substances thrown at the reels by the villain and increase your chances of winning.

This new video slot has 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 paylines, as well as a free spins feature, where winning combinations and payments are determined by the PAYTABLE. If a combination of symbols appears with potentially more than one win, the amount won will correspond to the arrangement produced by the highest multiplier.

During the game, “Mystery” symbols may appear that turn into other symbols (except Bonus) and show different wins. If more than one mystery symbol appears during a particular spin, all of these symbols will turn into the same symbol.

Each non-winning spin will add a percentage of the bet to the progress bar, gradually filling it up. Once you have filled this bar entirely, the “Intergalactic Wheel” will appear, where you will need to choose between

Captain Wild and the villain. The wheel will then start to turn. When the wheel stops, if the color of the option you have chosen is the same as that of the result on the wheel, the corresponding multiplier will be added and you will be able to carry on playing up to a maximum of x100.

3 or more Bonus symbols in any position will launch the free spins feature. After each spin, the villain will place radioactive substances on a random reel.

If a WILD symbol appears on the radioactive reel, the radioactivity will be destroyed and the feature multiplier will increase.

If a SUPER WILD symbol appears in any place, the radioactivity in all reels will be destroyed and the multiplier will increase by the number of “cleaned” radioactive reels.

Wins landed during the free spins feature will be multiplied by the value of the multiplier at the start of the spin. The feature ends when all the reels have become radioactive. At the end of the free spins feature, if the total win is less than 10 times the bet that launched the feature, the radioactivity in two random reels will be destroyed and the feature will continue.

In a nutshell, this is a highly comprehensive video slot game with plenty of action during each spin.

Captain Wild has been released today, the 26th of January, across all Red Rake Gaming operators in all markets.

PENN Entertainment Inc. announced plans for an expected $180–$200 million project to relocate its Ameristar Casino Hotel Council Bluffs (Ameristar) riverboat casino operations to a new, state-of-the-art land-based property to be rebranded as Hollywood Casino Council Bluffs (Hollywood Council Bluffs). The proposal is approved by the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission in conjunction with a 15-year extension of Ameristar’s partnership with the nonprofit Qualified Sponsoring Organization (QSO) Iowa West Racing Association. All commercial operators in Iowa are required to have an operating agreement with a QSO licensed to conduct gaming operations.

Under the proposed plan, the new Hollywood Council Bluffs is expected to include roughly 125,000 square feet of new development with approximately 58,000 square feet of gaming space. The new facility will complement the existing ESPN BET sportsbook, 160-room hotel and dining options in the landside portion of the current infrastructure. The existing riverboat, which presently offers gaming spread out over three levels, will be vacated upon opening of the new property.

“We are pleased to add another landside relocation to our pipeline of development projects. This project will enhance the quality and efficiency of our Council Bluffs location and significantly improve the property’s competitive positioning in the greater Omaha market. PENN’s diversified portfolio of casino properties is core to our omni-channel approach to entertainment, which combines our best-in-class retail operations and a database of more than 32 million PENN Play members with our robust interactive and media footprint. We thank the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission for their approval today and are grateful for the continued collaboration with our partners at the Iowa West Racing Association,” said Todd George, Executive Vice President of Operations for PENN.

“We are thrilled with the exciting development plans for the new Hollywood Casino Council Bluffs. For nearly thirty years, the Ameristar riverboat has been providing not only dining and entertainment, but thousands of jobs and millions of dollars in support of our community. PENN’s commitment to reinvesting in Council Bluffs is laudable and we are grateful for our ongoing partnership,” said Brenda Mainwaring, President & CEO of the Iowa West Racing Association.

Construction of the new facility is expected to take approximately 18-24 months following the design and permitting approval process. The Company is entitled to obtain financing for the project from Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. (GLPI) of up to $150 million at a 7.10% cap rate, which may be structured at PENN’s option as either rent or a 5-year term loan that is pre-payable at any time without penalty.
