Kalamba Games tackles various Viking deities in its latest mythological adventure Heimdall’s Gate.

Progressive free spins underpin this Norse voyage, which is set across 6×4 reels. Symbols including Frost Giants, Freya and Heimdall himself must form a matching combination across the title’s 4096 winning ways to unlock a win.

Players are aided in creating these wins by wilds that come in three variants: a standard wild substitutes for all base game symbols which is joined by two different multiplier wilds that can boost the title’s winning potential.

During the base game, free spins are accumulated and increased after each successive spin, this will award more free spins in the game’s two bonuses. Each bonus is unlocked for landing at least three horns granting the accrued number of spins with a 3x wild multiplier, or three swords which similarly award the spins generated with a 2x wild multiplier active throughout the bonus.

During both bonuses, shields are key to retriggering the free spins and unlocking the title’s max win of 6,480x. A Buy Bonus is also available for players to instantly begin the Midgardian-inspired free spins round, this offers four different bonuses with various multipliers and spins available, empowering players to enjoy the title in their own unique way.

Heimdall’s Gate is the latest slot by Kalamba Games to provide players with numerous distinctive features that work concurrently to deliver thrilling and memorable gameplay experiences, thus boosting retention rates. The title follows other recent hits within the provider’s vast portfolio including Megaways™ Bushido Princess, Lightning Fortune and Joker Rainbows.

Alex Cohen, COO and Co-Founder at Kalamba Games said: “Heimdall’s Gate has been built from the ground up with player engagement and excitement in mind. The title not only offers two varying free spin bonuses but the progressive nature of them means that even on a losing spin players are still being rewarded.

“This coupled with various wild multipliers, a distinct and popular aesthetic and the multifaceted approach we add to all of our games has created a slot that we are confident players will enjoy.”

SPAIN’S LEO MARGETS HAS CHANCE TO BE THE FIRST WOMAN IN POKER HISTORY TO BECOME WORLD CHAMPION

Leonore “Leo” Margets is the first woman to reach the WSOP Main Event final table since Barbara Enright 30 years ago.

The final table of the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event is a historic one, as for the first time in 30 years a woman is among the final nine players competing for poker’s most coveted prize.

Leonore “Leo” Margets, a professional poker player from Barcelona, Spain, will be only the second woman in WSOP history to play at the WSOP Main Event final table since Poker Hall of Fame inductee Barbara Enright finished in fifth place in 1995.

Making the Final Nine of the 2025 WSOP Main Event, Margets has secured at least $1 million in prize money, adding to her over $2 million in recorded live tournament winnings.

Achieving a historic accomplishment that is an overwhelming positive for the game of poker, Margets has an opportunity to make even more history by potentially being the first woman ever to win the WSOP Main Event.

Claiming her lone WSOP bracelet in the $1,500 No Limit Hold’em – The Closer tournament at the 2021 WSOP ($376,850 top prize), Margets’ second career bracelet may be the most prestigious one a poker player can win.

With 16 players remaining during Day 8 of the 2025 WSOP Main Event, nearly the entirety of Margets’ chip stack would enter the pot preflop as she called off a three-bet all-in by Sergio Veloso. Holding pocket jacks to Veloso’s ace-king offsuit, despite an ace arriving on the flop, Margets hit a runner-runner flush to give her not only the chips but the momentum needed to reach the WSOP Main Event final table.

Interviewed by PokerGO sideline reporter Jeff Platt moments after officially reaching the WSOP Main Event final table, Margets, surrounded by adoring supporters, was all smiles as she reflected on her achievement.

“It’s so unreal, it is a dream,” Margets said. “I’m so glad that I’m cheering (with my rail), it means so much. How lucky I am to live this!”

The final table of the 2025 WSOP Main Event will resume at the Las Vegas Horseshoe and Paris on Tuesday, July 15th with action beginning at 1:30 P.M. local time. Poker fans and players can watch the action on PokerGO, as well as on the PokerGO YouTube channel.
