Kalamba Games reveals a modern classic with Hyper Blitz Hold and Win
Kalamba Games is focusing on player retention with its Hold and Win Blitz mode which makes up the foundation of its latest release Hyper Blitz Hold And Win.
Played across 6×4 reels, the classic symbols on the game board must form a matching combination across 25 paylines to award a win. Wilds aid in creating these wins by substituting all base game symbols.
Players are given agency over these wilds via the returning popular HyperBet option. This allows players to increase the size of their stake to directly impact the value of the multiplier attached to these wilds and simultaneously increases the number of spins awarded in the free spins round.
The Hold and Win Blitz mode is triggered for landing one instant cash symbol across reels two to five. This will award the player three spins with the chance to land an additional instant cash prize and retrigger the blitz mode feature. Landing 20 or more Blitz symbols in total will begin to incrementally increase the player’s position on a cashpot ladder which can award prizes up to 10,000x the player’s bet size.
Having an instant cash prize land on every position on a reel whilst Blitz mode is active will award that reel’s cumulative prize, which is expanded upon in the free spins round. Awarded by landing at least three scatters in the base game, players will unlock spins previously decided upon via their HyperBet level. During the bonus, Blitz Mode is active throughout the free spins, increasing win potential.
By integrating a Hold and Win Blitz mode feature that can last numerous rounds and provide an escalation of prizes, Hyper Blitz Hold And Win positions player retention at its heart. This is also evident in other recent Kalamba titles including Flaming Scarabs, Heimdall’s Gate and MegawaysTM Bushido Princess.
Alex Cohen, COO and Co-Founder of Kalamba Games, said:: “Hyper Blitz Hold And Win is a combination of different elements that we have perfected at Kalamba Games. The title presents retro-inspired aesthetics alongside innovative mechanics to create a slot with transformative mass-market appeal.
“The focus on retention-based mechanics will also prove to be a hit for our operator partners alongside players with the Blitz mode promoting play to reveal even more prizes.”

Portuguese start-up FootAR is enhancing the Euro 2024 experience with AR tracking and smart data

With the summer of football heating up, FootAR is showing how live sports can be enhanced with augmented reality. It has created a real-time companion that gamifies the sports experience and emulates player movements with 3D foosball-like figures, adding smart stats and prizes for fans.
FootAR has already made its mark in Portugal, where two notable media organisations have integrated it into their coverage. GMG (Jornal de Notícias) and SportsMultimedia (VSports) use FootAR to bring a 3D experience to Euro 2024 fans.
FootAR is one of 22 companies in the Portuguese games development and creative industries cluster eGamesLab. This ambitious R&D project led out of Madeira aims to attract and develop new talent and technology focused on the growing national video game industry.
FootAR’s platform went live earlier this year. The initial rollout covered Portuguese league games, partnering with some of the biggest Portuguese clubs like SC Braga and CD Nacional before expanding to cover all the matches at Euro 2024. It offers real-time statistics, in-depth analysis, and seamless integration for news outlets covering live games on their websites.
Fans can relive every goal, track every pass, and stay connected to the game with real-time updates and AR-enhanced visuals. The technology allows fans to rewatch the most significant moments in a live game and view them from multiple angles, together with an accompanying audio commentary.
“We understand the insatiable appetite for football data and the desire to go beyond the final score,” says David Olim, Co-Founder of FootAR. “FootAR empowers fans to delve deeper into the action, following their favourite players, teams, and leagues, and is the perfect way for enthusiasts to analyse the beautiful game – but that’s just the start. As a father of two young children, my goal is to shape how younger generations immerse themselves in these communal experiences. Looking to the future, our interests go way beyond sports. We are starting with football, but within five years, we will have personalised experiences for clubs, artists, and brands to build their own interactive events.
Key Features:
Augmented Reality – relive the match’s key moments from multiple angles through 3D AR visuals, and get closer to the action with real-time data overlays to follow the game how you want to.
Custom Data Suite – access in-depth statistics for players and teams such as expected goals, pass accuracy and tackles lost. In-game notifications can be customised, ensuring key moments in the game are never missed..
Audio Commentary – FoorAR can sync with local radio broadcasts, creating a combination of live commentary and live data which really brings events to life.
With FootAR, new avenues for monetizing audience engagement and sponsors are available to media companies and clubs looking for a solution to drive greater fan engagement, as well as opening up new revenue streams through in-game activations.
Fans can transform their football experience today by downloading FootAR for free on Android and iOS and using the Web/Desktop app. Apple VisionPro and Meta Quest versions of the experience are also being developed and will be released in Q3 2024.
