Inspired launches 2 new spring games: Catch of the Day Reeling ‘Em In™ and Wild Winner™
Inspired Entertainment, Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of its latest line up of Spring games, Catch of the Day Reeling ‘Em In™ and Wild Winner™.
Packed with big wins, Catch of the Day Reeling ‘Em In, is the latest “turbot”-charged fish-themed online and mobile slot from Inspired’s Astra studio and offers players a fin-tastic iGaming experience.
With a reel configuration of 5×3 with 10 win-lines, Catch of the Day Reeling ‘Em In and its crystal-clear waters transports players to a land of fishing fun, where any-fin is possible. The base game offers players numerous ways to win, with its colorful graphics and vibrant reels spinning to reveal bonus scatters and fish symbols that represent multiple combinations of mixed pays.
Land three scatters to trigger the game’s exciting Free Spins Bonus, where more wins are up for grabs! During Free Spins, the game’s Fisherman symbol catches all fish in view, and advances along the game’s progressive trail, shown above the reels. The values shown on all fish are multiples of the player’s base game stake.
If a player reaches the re-trigger positions along the trail, they will win more Free Spins in addition to the chance of bagging extra re-spins. The aim of the bonus is to reach the end of the trail for the maximum re-spin winning potential.
With great features including the Gamble allowing access to Free Spins, and Bonus Buy giving players the chance to purchase direct entry into the Bonus round (in applicable territories), Catch of the Day Reeling ‘Em In is a medium-volatility game with a return to player (RTP) rate of 94.52% for casual fishing fun.
Spin for a win with Wild Winner, a classic casino-themed online and mobile slot game from Inspired’s Bell-Fruit studio , set to get players’ pulses racing to hit the jackpot!
With a game profile similar to Inspired’s hit title Gold Cash Big Spins™ and featuring Inspired’s Gamble to Spins mechanic, Wild Winner has a reel configuration of 5×4 with 30 win-lines. It is a medium-to-high volatility slot with an RTP of 94.5%.
Wild Winner brings players guaranteed Free Spins to deliver gameplay excitement in abundance. Packed with casino style symbols and fun Wilds, the game offers players regular base game wins.
Landing three or more bonus scatters in the base game triggers the Wild Winner Free Spins. If fewer than three appear in view, the bonus scatters change to Wilds and the multiplier is applied to any wins they achieve. In Free Spins, the multiplier of each scatter that triggered the Bonus is displayed above the relevant reels. Any Wilds landing on the reels have this multiplier applied to wins. Win multipliers can combine to award the player big pay outs!
Claire Osborne, Vice President of Interactive at Inspired, said: “We’re thrilled to be launching two very different slot games this Spring, offering players more breadth of choice and a feast of fun and entertainment!
“Catch of the Day Reeling ‘Em In is an exciting game with a popular theme and great mechanics. Packed with multipliers, Wild Winner will delight players as they sit back and watch their Free Spins deliver juicy cash wins!”

The Arizona Department of Gaming (ADG) has announced an impressive $42,508,200 in tribal gaming contributions to the Arizona Benefits Fund for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2025. This milestone reflects the continued growth and success of the state’s tribal gaming industry, achieved through strong collaboration between the state government and tribal communities.
A Record-Breaking Year for Tribal Gaming
“This achievement is a testament to the strength of the partnership between Arizona and its tribal communities,” said Jackie Johnson, Director of ADG. “Consecutive record quarters in FY2025 highlight our shared commitment to fostering a thriving gaming industry. Since FY2004, total tribal contributions have exceeded $2.3 billion, significantly benefiting the state and its residents.”
Supporting Arizona’s Communities
The Arizona Benefits Fund receives 88% of tribal gaming contributions, channeling these funds into key areas that directly impact the state’s residents and natural resources. The Q2 FY2025 contributions will be allocated as follows:

A Growing Gaming Landscape
Arizona currently hosts 26 Class III casinos, regulated under the Arizona Tribal-State Gaming Compact. These casinos contribute a percentage of their gross gaming revenue to the Arizona Benefits Fund as well as to cities, towns, and counties. This model of tribal-state collaboration has proven instrumental in bolstering local economies and funding critical programs.
About the Arizona Department of Gaming
Founded in 1995, ADG is Arizona’s regulatory authority overseeing tribal gaming, racing, event wagering, and more. Beyond regulation, ADG is deeply committed to problem gambling education, offering support and resources to affected individuals and families through its Division of Problem Gambling and 24-hour helpline, 1-800-NEXT-STEP.
Looking Ahead
