Spinomenal debuts Night Wolf Hold & Hit
Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has unleashed Night Wolf Hold & Hit offering players a twilight adventure amongst the shadows. The game is the latest to join the fiercely entertaining Wolf Pack series.
A brooding soundtrack brings the action to life as players seek to track down Wild symbols on the 5×3 frame. Three Scatter Free Spins symbols will launch the Free Spins game. During the base game, Scatter Free Spins symbols can only be found on reels 1, 3, and 5. Three Scattered symbols will gift players three Free Spins and multiply the total bet by three.
Once free spins are live, any symbol can become a colossus symbol (3×3), expanding over the centre of the slot across reels 2 to 4. Any scattered symbol (bonus or free spins) will only hit as a colossus symbol and initiate the feature. A Free Spins colossus symbol will award players with three extra free spins and pay x3 the total bet.
The Hold & Hit feature puts the finishing touches to this superb game. A minimum of six Scatter
bonus symbols will launch the Bonus game, where the symbols that triggered the feature remain set in place. Players kick things off with three spins and once the empty spots are filled or when the spins hit zero, the game will finish.
Every spin has the potential to complete the remaining empty slots and present players with prizes ranging from x1 – x10 multiplier of the total bet. The Mini Jackpot – pays x25 total bet, Major Jackpot – pays x50 total bet and the Mega Jackpot – pays x250 total bet. The spin counter will reset with a win and players who manage to cover all 15 spots will unwrap the Grand Jackpot and a prize of x5000 the total bet.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Night Wolf Hold & Hit is a game of mystery, power, and survival under the stars. Free games and the special feature will encourage players to discover their inner predator as they hunt for returns.”

Bragg Confirms Cyber Attack – Hackers Access Internal IT Systems

Bragg Gaming Group, a leading online gaming technology provider, has confirmed a major cybersecurity incident that compromised its internal IT infrastructure in the early hours of Saturday, August 16, 2025.
The company detected unauthorized intrusion attempts that successfully breached its internal network, triggering an immediate and comprehensive incident response.
Key Takeaways
-
Bragg Gaming Group experienced a cybersecurity breach involving access to internal IT systems.
-
No customer personal data or payment information appears to have been compromised.
-
The company has enacted full containment and investigation protocols.
Details of the Breach
According to a preliminary forensic analysis by Bragg’s internal security team, the attack was a targeted breach aimed at the company’s internal computer environment. While the exact method of intrusion is still under investigation, early indicators suggest a sophisticated exploit of internal network vulnerabilities.
Fortunately, the company’s customer-facing systems, including sensitive user data and financial information, appear to have been unaffected. Bragg’s existing encryption protocols and access control systems successfully prevented the attackers from accessing customer information.
Immediate Response Measures
In response to the breach, Bragg launched a multi-tiered containment strategy, including:
-
Network Segmentation to isolate affected systems
-
Enhanced Monitoring of data flows across its Remote Games Server (RGS) platform
-
Security Audits of critical infrastructure, including the Bragg Hub and PAM systems
-
Engagement of Independent Cybersecurity Experts to assist in incident analysis and system hardening
Bragg’s Security Operations Center has also elevated its alert level, initiating 24/7 monitoring across all server clusters and network endpoints. In addition, company-wide penetration testing is now underway to proactively identify any residual vulnerabilities.
Business Continuity Maintained
Despite the severity of the breach, Bragg reports that its operations remain unaffected. All gaming services, including iCasino and sportsbook offerings across regulated markets, continue to function without disruption.
“While this incident is deeply concerning, we are confident in the rapid and thorough response initiated by our team,” a company spokesperson stated. “We remain committed to protecting our infrastructure, our partners, and most importantly, our players.”
Looking Ahead
As part of its response, Bragg has also launched mandatory security awareness training for all employees to reinforce best practices and prevent future incidents.
Cybersecurity analysts will continue working with Bragg to determine the full scope of the attack, improve system resilience, and maintain the trust of its users and stakeholders.
Bragg’s handling of the incident highlights both the evolving nature of cybersecurity threats and the importance of robust, responsive defense systems in the digital gaming sector.

Slovakia Publishes Groundbreaking Report on Illegal Online Gambling

The Institute for Gambling Regulation in Slovakia (IPRHH) has published the country’s first comprehensive report dedicated to illegal gambling. The study, titled The Black Book of Illegal Gambling, was officially presented at Bratislava’s Einpark and is now publicly available online.
The landmark publication explores the structure, mechanisms, and social impact of illegal gambling operations in Slovakia, with a particular focus on unlicensed online platforms. According to the report, these operators bypass national regulations, exploit vulnerable groups, and deprive the state of hundreds of millions of euros annually in lost tax revenue.
Key Findings From the Report
The study is based on a nationally representative survey conducted by IPRHH in cooperation with the Slovak Academy of Sciences. Among the most striking results:
-
23.7% of players – nearly 296,000 Slovaks – admitted to gambling on unlicensed platforms.
-
24.1% of players could not determine whether the sites they used were legal.
-
Younger users and those with lower levels of education were the most likely to engage in illegal gambling.
-
13.1% of users admitted to gambling illegally because they were listed in the national Register of Excluded Persons (RVO), which should block them from licensed gambling.
“These sites ignore every safeguard that licensed operators must follow,” explained Dávid Lenčéš, Executive Director of IPRHH. “There are no limits, no identity checks, and no protection against addiction. And if you lose money, you have no legal recourse.”
Why Players Choose Illegal Platforms
Survey respondents highlighted several reasons for using unlicensed gambling sites:
-
Higher bonuses (32.5%)
-
Better odds (29.5%)
-
Easier registration (29.1%)
-
Wider game selection (27.4%)
Shockingly, only 42.2% of players actively check for a Slovak license, while 43.2% cannot distinguish between legal and illegal gambling advertisements.
Policy Recommendations
The IPRHH warns that illegal gambling costs Slovakia hundreds of millions of euros each year, money that could otherwise support healthcare, education, and addiction prevention programs.
The institute recommends a multi-pronged strategy to combat illegal operators, including:
-
More effective blocking of unlicensed websites
-
Stronger cooperation with banks and payment providers to block transactions
-
A national public awareness campaign
-
Stable conditions for licensed operators who contribute to the economy
Lenčéš also cautioned against excessive taxation of legal operators:
“If governments dramatically increase taxes on licensed operators, they risk pushing players further into the illegal market. Regulation should protect the public, not unintentionally support criminal ecosystems.”
About IPRHH
The Institute for Gambling Regulation (IPRHH) was founded in 2024 to promote effective, transparent, and responsible gambling regulation in Slovakia. Led by Executive Director Dávid Lenčéš, former Chairman of the Slovak Gambling Regulatory Authority, the organization works to address modern challenges such as digitalization, illegal gambling, and player protection.
