TaDa Gaming Explores an Underwater World of Wins in Poseidon
TaDa Gaming invites players to dive deep into the underwater kingdom in Poseidon and experience a game like no other in this six rows, six reels plus bonus seventh multiplier reel slot.
A treasure trove of features gives players access to Cascading Reels, Free Spins, Multipliers to 500x in the bonus game, the unique Elimination Round and 20,000x max bet win.
The Bonus reel holds the Multipliers and Special Symbols, while reels one to six take players across the ocean floor and into a world of legends with sea creatures, mermaids and the mighty god Poseidon himself.
Four Pearl Scatters will trigger Ten Free Spins with up to six Scatters triggering 14 Free Spins plus Multipliers of x2 and higher guaranteed. Each additional scatter will give another Free Spin. Find Four Scatters in Free Spins and retrigger the entire round.
Cascading Reels add to the magical underwater sensation. When any winning combination pays out across reels one to six, the cascading reels feature triggers and all winning symbols will be removed, with the remaining symbols falling to the bottom of the screen. Empty positions will then fill with new symbols until there are no more winning combinations. Cascading reels can trigger in the base game and in Free Spins.
Players will find themselves entranced by the unique Elimination Round feature. To keep players aware, gold edges will frame the positions when the win is awarded. The symbols will disappear after triggering the effect and the positions will refresh with each spin.
Mega Special Symbols of the Shark, Jellyfish and Octopus will also appear across the screen in this randomly triggered round and each brings a unique bonus.
Special Symbols of 2×2, 3×3 and 4×4 are the shark’s gift. The Jellyfish will transform all symbols on reels one – six to higher paying ones and the Octopus will add all the Multipliers together to increase the winning stake payout.
Multipliers come from the Air Bubble and the Treasure Chest Special Symbols on the bonus reel, with 1x from the Air Bubble to 2x-8x for the Blue Chest; 10x-25x for the Brown Chest and a legendary 50x-500x for the Royal Purple Chest.
Each time a Multiplier is awarded in any round, the value will show on the board to the left of the screen, giving players an easy way to calculate the wins.
Combining mythology and underwater creatures in smooth play and stunning graphics with an edgy soundtrack all add to the thrills in this engaging and immersive medium volatility game. Plus, intuitive mechanics will locate a horizontal row across the top of the screen for mobile play and a vertical row for tablets or desktop for the bonus reel, keeping the grid visually easy to view.
Sean Liu, Head of Product Management at TaDa Gaming, said: “Poseidon’s ocean kingdom is busy! Players need to stay on full alert throughout the game as all the features interact with each other and trigger randomly. The Multiplier bonus reel brings significant uplift to the already strong win potential for truly engaging play.”

GamCare releases Annual Report following record breaking year of support on the National Gambling Helpline
GamCare’s National Gambling Helpline received a record 55,228 calls and online chats from people experiencing gambling harm in 2023-24 – a 25% increase from the previous year – according to the charity’s Annual Report.
In a year marked by uncertainty over the future shape and structure of the gambling harms treatment sector following the previous government’s white paper on gambling reform, the charity continued to prioritise those at-risk of, or currently experiencing, gambling harm.
Of all calls and online chats that were responded to on GamCare’s Helpline in 2023/24, 41,070 (74%) were classed as supportive interventions. This includes supporting people with initial guidance and advice as well as delivering a seamless entry point into structured treatment services, with individuals completing treatment reporting a significant reduction in gambling-related distress and financial harm.
In March 2024, the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities published an assessment of the gambling treatment system, highlighting that 57% of individuals engaging in treatment were referred by the National Gambling Helpline. This underscores the Helpline’s critical role in connecting people to the support they need. Over 9,100 free treatment sessions were delivered in the year to April 2024, with an average of just 2.1 days’ wait from point of referral.
GamCare’s targeted programmes aimed at young people, women, and the criminal justice system provided training on how to spot the signs of harms and where to signpost into support for 10,344 professionals, and education for 53,324 young people, children and parents. The Women’s Programme, in partnership with organisations such as Refuge, trained 3,813 professionals to recognise and address gambling-related harm among women.
Margot Daly, Executive Chair of GamCare’s Board, says: “Throughout a challenging year and with heightened demand for our services, GamCare’s staff have got on with the job of preventing harm where possible and treating harm where necessary. While we expect important changes in the gambling harms landscape, we have been determined not to let this uncertainty affect our relentless focus on the people who really matter – those at-risk of or currently experiencing gambling harms.
“I would like to thank and pay tribute to our frontline staff who provide 24/7 support for all those at risk or in distress. I also want to thank GamCare’s senior executive team who have steered GamCare through a period of sustained change, and to my fellow trustees for their guidance, unwavering support and the time each has dedicated to ensuring that the charity stays on course and on mission.
“As we look ahead to how the future of the gambling harms sector is shaped, we are committed to working proactively with the NHS and other partners and commissioners to ensure that people are continually able to receive the right support at the right time.”
