Northern Lights Gaming launches latest title in its Unusual Suspect series with players taken to the Wild West for a gun-slinging showdown with the baddest baddies around

Step into the dusty streets of the Old West where lawlessness reigns and the hunt for Wanted Unusual Suspects™ begins.

The latest slot of the same name from Northern Lights Gaming, an exclusive Games Global studio, is the next in the developer’s Unusual Suspects franchise and sees players assume the role of the fearless sheriff who must uphold justice and bring the notorious outlaws to heel.

With each spin, players hunt down the bandits and get closer to the bounty they have stolen. This takes the form of Gold Coins that leave behind Sticky Wild Frames once the Sheriff symbol, which is Wild, has landed to collect the stolen money (Gold Coins) and take it back to the back.

Apprehended outlaws find themselves in jail where they line up for the Perk Pick which allows players to modify Free Spins. Free Spins are triggered when three, four or five Scatters drop – players are first taken to the jail where five suspects are lined up in front of them.

Players must then pick a suspect, with each revealing a different Free Spins Upgrade Perk. If they have filled the Perk Pick Meter in the base game, the suitcase becomes active and an extra Perk is awarded.

The Free Games then play out. Sticky Frames remain sticky for the duration while every Sheriff symbol that lands moves one position up the feature upgrade trail. When each outlaw is captured, the player receives a Multiplier and more Spins.

Of course, all Perks from the mini-game are active throughout Free Spins.

But that’s just the start of the gun-slinging bonus action…

Exploding Wilds trigger randomly when Outlaw symbols land. As the name suggests, they explode to populate the reels with multiple Wilds for even more win potential.

If players don’t want to spend too much time on the trail of the bandits, they have the option to Buy the Bonus with the option to purchase Free Spins or enhanced Super Free Spins.

Andrew Goodale CEO at Northern Lights Gaming, said: “Wanted: Unusual Suspects™ is the latest title in our hugely popular Unusual Suspects franchise. This time, players find themselves in the Wild West where they must join the Sheriff as he hunts down outlaws and reclaim the bounties they have stolen.

“For those that can hold their nerve, ride strong and shoot straight, there are plenty of rewards up for grabs, helped of course by the game’s bonus features including Coins, Sticky Wild Frames, Multipliers and Free Spins.

“Wanted: Unusual Suspects™ is an action-packed slot and will appeal to fans of the series as well as those who love nothing more than spinning the wheels on a Western-themed game.”

Cryptocurrency casino and sportsbook startup harnesses Optimove’s Ignite+ Program to scale campaigns, gain predictive insights, and deliver personalized player journeys at scale

BetHog, a cryptocurrency casino and sportsbook from the creators of FanDuel, has chosen Optimove as its marketing solution through its Ignite+ program. Ignite+ gives BetHog access to enterprise-grade CRM and AI-driven marketing capabilities, enabling the company to accelerate campaign execution, gain predictive insights, and deliver more personalized player experiences at scale. Optimove is the creator of Positionless Marketing and the #1 Marketing Solution for iGaming and sports betting operators.

“Optimove has been an incredible platform and partner in speed-to-market from day one,” said Kyle Wachtel, Chief Marketing Officer at BetHog. “Their team didn’t just provide us with a platform. They became an extension of our marketing team, bringing expertise, predictive models, and industry knowledge that we simply couldn’t replicate in-house at this stage.”

Tomer Imber, Senior Director of Sales, US Gaming at Optimove, commented: “From the start, the BetHog team has shown incredible vision and drive, already boasting an innovative product and burgeoning brand, and we are excited to be part of their journey. BetHog is leveraging our platform to build lasting player relationships and accelerate growth.”

The partnership highlights BetHog’s rapid path from integration to execution. Within weeks, the company completed its IP warmup, validated data quality, and began sending campaigns. Optimove’s out-of-the-box predictive models and churn analytics now serve as a BI function for the startup, enabling it to focus on growth without the burden of building a large internal team.

“The Ignite+ Program was the perfect fit for us as a fast-growing startup,” Wachtel added. “It gave us access to enterprise-grade CRM capabilities and AI-driven insights without the overhead of building out a full BI and CRM function. From onboarding to campaign launch, Optimove executed at startup speed to get us live.”
With Optimove in place, BetHog is now poised to embrace Positionless Marketing, a breakthrough approach that frees marketers from traditional role constraints and gives them the ability to independently harness Data Power, Creative Power, and Optimization Power.

“We still have many opportunities to explore with Optimove, and we are confident that Positionless Marketing will help us move faster, personalize more deeply, and maximize every player interaction,” Wachtel said.

The Ignite+ Program has already supported the growth of dozens of iGaming and sportsbook operators. For BetHog, leveraging Ignite+ represents a key milestone in its journey to scale rapidly while building a foundation for personalized, AI-powered marketing.

Fast Track will unveil its new AI-driven natural language platform on 2 September during its annual Fast Track House event in Malta. The launch will also be streamed live online from 4 PM CEST, giving the iGaming industry an exclusive first look at the future of player engagement.

For the past decade, Fast Track has pioneered real-time data integration, the Singularity Model, the only Gameplay Risk Engine, and Rewards, the first AI-ready gamification system. Each innovation has moved the company closer to its vision: to digitalise the iGaming industry and deliver the first self-learning engagement platform.

Fast Track AI is trained on over 10 years of iGaming expertise and designed to transform how CRM teams work. It can perform technical analysis on terabytes of real-time data, deliver advanced insights into CRM performance and player behaviour, and uniquely take direct action on those insights across the platform.

“This isn’t just AI added to CRM. This is CRM re-engineered for the natural language era,” said Simon Lidzén, CEO and Co-Founder of Fast Track.

“Even your wildest imagination can only take you so far; minds have been bound by constraints for so long that it is hard to picture the full power of Fast Track AI. You simply need to see it to believe it. This is why I am organising a live session to unveil it; to showcase what a native iGaming CRM, built on the most comprehensive real-time data infrastructure together with the Singularity Model, is capable of. I urge the whole industry to sign up.” Lidzén added.

The big reveal will take place during the Fast Track House event in Malta and will be streamed live online. The broadcast begins at 4:00 PM CEST on 2 September.
