There’s big prizes to be won as the revered gods wage war on the reels, and gamblers can collect all 24 orbs – one for every hour of the day – or lock in five bonus symbols to trigger free spins, as well as activating the Super Bonus by combining both features.
Play’n GO have given the industry another little treasure with one of their final releases for 2020, the adventure slot Frozen Gems. The 5×3 video slot puts players in the shoes of an intrepid explorer, separated from his crew during an arctic mission, who discovers hidden gems in the icy wasteland. The game provides a unique twist on the payways mechanic that allows symbols to be split on a special bonus reel, unlocking up to 8,748 payways. Coupled with an unlimited cascade multiplier, this is a game with huge potential to round off the year.

The new 5×4 slot has 1024 payways and features three unique mechanics designed for huge volatility and massive win potential, with a maximum win of over 38800x the bet. Winning opportunities are boosted by the Scatter Split feature, which splits a randomly selected symbol into two or three and pays from anywhere on the reels. During the Paired Reels feature, reels are randomly grouped into a multitude of possible combinations for the chance of huge wins on every spin, while the Expand n’ Lock feature sees the reels expand to increase the potential number of ways to win.
Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the gaming industry, has released the newest addition to its vaunted John Hunter series, John Hunter and the Mayan Gods. The 3×5 video slot sees the return of Pragmatic Play’s intrepid hero as he treks across the Mayan jungle in search of treasure. Fearsome gods await players as they look to aid him in the search for Temple Scatter symbols upon the reels. A golden mask acts as a Wild symbol, which can land on reels 2, 3 or 4. If a Wild lands and forms a winning combination, it will expand to fill the entire reel. Three or more Scatter symbols will trigger the Free Spins mode, which is progressive, upgrading in level as more Wild symbols land. As players upgrade their level, symbols become upgraded to more high-paying ones, potentially triggering wins of up to 2,500x a player’s stake.

DreamPlay consolidates its status as a global player in the iGaming industry and opens an office and campus in Cyprus
DreamPlay’s ambitions go far beyond simple game development. With a new office in Limassol, the international iGaming solutions provider is expanding its presence in Europe and laying the foundations for a new philosophy of the iGaming business.
The location in Limassol was not chosen by chance – Cyprus has long become the European center of iGaming. It is here that key market players, large operators and financial structures supporting the industry are concentrated. And the high concentration of technology and talented developers allows DreamPlay to form its own ecosystem of talent.
If in the 2010s Cyprus became a hub for classic iGaming operators, today it is a point of attraction for technology companies that are betting on metaverses and the integration of games into a wider digital ecosystem. DreamPlay is one of those shaping this trend.
Google-style campus for game development talents
The DreamPlay office and campus in Limassol are part of the company’s international network of corporate campuses. Similar hubs already operate in Thailand, Bali, Peru, the UAE and Poland. They offer employees comfortable working conditions and the ability to move between locations, accommodation, meals, legal support for stays in different countries. And all this is at the expense of the company. -And the flexible work format and 4-day work week in the company helps DreamPlay talents maintain a healthy work-life balance. It’s all about well-established business processes and taking care of the team.
It’s nice to know that you can come to the country, and there is a Dream Campus where friends, like-minded people and someone who can simply take care of you are waiting for you. They will meet you at the airport, give you a tour, accompany you on medical or legal issues. It’s all part of the team.
“iGaming is an industry of emotions. Therefore, the people who create it should work where they feel best. Therefore, in our campuses we create an environment where the team can feel maximum freedom for creativity, focus on creating new breakthrough products. And not be distracted by everyday issues. And we are sure that this gives us a strategic advantage, because we are sure that our employees have received better conditions than their colleagues in other companies. Comfort, flexibility and freedom are part of our global philosophy of DreamPlay,” shares DreamPlay CEO Alex Tkach.
What does this mean for the market?
Opening a DreamPlay office in Cyprus is a wise decision, as the company is preparing to enter new markets and partner with the largest iGaming players. It is also a signal to the entire market that the company is moving into the league of global players who dictate trends, rather than following them.
If today Cyprus is another platform for international expansion, then tomorrow DreamPlay may turn into one of the first technology companies in iGaming, operating on the principle of large IT holdings.
And this is where the main intrigue lies: will DreamPlay become the one who fundamentally rethinks the very nature of the industry?

MLB Players Sign Licensing Agreement with PENN Entertainment

MLB Players Inc., a commercial affiliate of the Major League Baseball Players Association, and OneTeam Partners announced they’ve reached a licensing agreement with PENN Entertainment.
The agreement designates PENN’s sports betting platforms – ESPN BET in the U.S. and theScore BET in Canada – as Officially Licensed Sportsbooks of MLBPI.
PENN now has the rights to use MLB player names, images and likenesses on its sports betting platforms, marketing assets and promotional campaigns.
The deal also includes PENN’s retail sportsbook operations (32 retail sportsbooks at its casino properties, including 19 under the ESPN BET brand).
Last fall, FanDuel and MLBPI reached a similar licensing agreement after the MLB players’ union sued FanDuel and Underdog Fantasy in New York Supreme Court, accusing them of using the names and likeness of ballplayers on their players without permission.
”As baseball season gets underway, we’re excited to offer fans an enhanced betting experience that includes player likenesses, expanded wagering options and a more dynamic product. Partnering with MLB Players Inc. strengthens our connection to the league and its star players and creates additional opportunities to engage fans throughout the season,” said Jason Birney, Vice President of Operations at PENN Interactive.
OneTeam Partners specializes in commercializing group licensing rights for professional athlates, and is a joint venture between the NFL Players Association, MLB Players Association, Women’s National Basketball Players Association, MLS Players Association, and U.S. Women’s National Team Players Association.
“By integrating MLB player rights into PENN Entertainment’s platforms, this partnership brings fans closer to the game while unlocking new business opportunities in sports betting. It highlights the growing influence of players in shaping premium, fan-focused betting experiences while enhancing player NIL rights and widening distribution,” said Frank Arthofer, President of OneTeam Partners.
