Thunderkick launches debut crash game Heads Will Roll

Studio combines arcade and dice mechanics in ominous release
Independent slots studio Thunderkick has marked its first foray into a new product vertical with the release of Heads Will Roll.
The crash game, set in an eerie underground vault, tasks players with climbing a multiplier ladder by rolling a die with three possible outcomes: level-up, Fate Mode, or game over.
The level-up icon progresses the player to the next rung of the prize ladder, boosting the available cash out, Fate Mode replaces the standard die, increasing both the number of steps climbed and the chance of landing a game over symbol, which ends the betting round instantly.
Four difficulty variants each present a unique risk level, granting the user complete control over their experience. The likelihood of rolling a game over symbol increases with each difficulty level, as does the maximum multiplier, which ranges from 35x in Easy mode up to 2,400x in Brutal mode.
Once the player moves within one or two steps of the final multiplier, the All or Nothing round is triggered. Played on a red and gold die, the number of sides is determined by the active difficulty level, and there are just two possible outcomes: maximum win or game over.
Following a successful cashout, the multiplier which would have been reached if the player kept rolling is revealed, providing a unique opportunity for the development of game strategy.
Heads Will Roll is Thunderkick’s first venture outside of the slots vertical, demonstrating the studio’s commitment to diversifying its product portfolio in alignment with the latest industry trends.
Mike Collins, Game Product Owner at Thunderkick, said: “There has been a huge increase in the number of players opting for crash and arcade-style games in 2025, with the fast-paced betting rounds providing that instant gratification they are seeking.
“Heads Will Roll marks our first step outside of the world of slots, offering Thunderkick players a distinct, action-packed experience where the player has complete autonomy over how they play.
“While the gameplay moves away from our classic slots, visually, it feels reassuringly familiar, retaining the signature Thunderkick flair.”

2025 Global Gaming Expo
Big stage, bold presence: NOVOMATIC brings the energy to G2E 2025

At this year’s Global Gaming Expo, NOVOMATIC will unveil a slate of products designed to turn heads on the casino floor and, more importantly, drive measurable returns for operators. The portfolio balances spectacle with substance, showcasing the company’s dual commitment to entertainment and profitability.
Cabinets with presence
Taking center stage is the U.S. debut of the DIAMOND X 1.55J Quattro, a cabinet that has already earned international acclaim and is now poised to reshape the North American market. Its sweeping 55-inch J-curved UHD display, paired with an immersive TouchDeck
interface and integrated sound system, delivers a cinematic experience. When deployed in four- and six-bank configurations, the DIAMOND X
1.55J Quattro becomes a floor-dominating anchor designed to draw players from across the room.
Alongside it, NOVOMATIC presents the V.I.P. X cabinet series, a family of machines built as much for spectacle as for player comfort. The lineup includes the V.I.P. X Royal
1.85, V.I.P. X Dream
2.43/3.43, V.I.P. X Lounge
2.32, and the commanding V.I.P. X Galaxy
2.65. With oversized UHD screens, ambient lighting, and luxury seating, these cabinets push the boundaries of what slot entertainment can look like. The V.I.P. X Galaxy
, with its dual 65-inch displays, swiveling TouchDeck
, and fully integrated “Viper” lounge chair, redefines centerpiece design for extended play.
Games built for performance
On the content front, NOVOMATIC is placing a spotlight on RISING TREASURES, a Multiple Feature suite on the NOVO LINE
platform. By layering Free Games, Xtra Spins, and Prize Upgrades into one package, it delivers the kind of variety that keeps players engaged and operators confident in performance.
Also making its debut is ULTRA BOOST LINK 3 Treasures, the latest extension of a player-favorite franchise. Its three-pot bonus mechanic, paired with a dynamic reel-matrix feature, offers a blend of frequent wins and long-term jackpot anticipation, striking a balance between accessibility and thrill. Rounding out the lineup are fresh titles like XTENSION LINK
Evolution and Piggy Prizes – Wish of Riches, broadening the company’s already diverse library. NOVOMATIC Americas has built notable success in Puerto Rico’s Street Market and continues to place a strategic emphasis on Street Market VGTs overall. Through its “Street Smart” focus, the company is committed to delivering localized, performance-driven game content that supports operators.
“Our focus is clear: deliver innovation that performs. The cabinets we are launching, the content we are expanding, and the systems we are advancing are all designed to give operators a tangible advantage on their floor. At G2E, we’re not just showing products – we’re showing a strategy built for lasting operator profitability” said Jakob Rothwangl, Managing Director, NOVOMATIC Americas.
Thomas Schmalzer, VP of Global Sales and Product Management at NOVOMATIC AG, adds: “At G2E 2025, we are showcasing the full breadth of NOVOMATIC’s innovation power – from cabinets with iconic design to premium game content and future-ready systems. What makes our portfolio stand out is not only the visual and entertainment value, but the way it consistently translates into strong performance for our customers.”
Beyond the reel
NOVOMATIC’s G2E presence extends well past slot machines. Novo Unity Pro, the company’s flagship Electronic Table Games platform, allows multiple live, automated, and virtual games – from Roulette and Baccarat to Poker and Blackjack – to be played through a single terminal. For operators, it is a way to expand game variety without expanding footprint.
For the systems sector, NOVOMATIC presents the NOVOVISION Casino Management System, a modular suite of applications built to handle the complexities of modern gaming operations.
