Snapshot On New Releases From iSoftBet And NextGen
Booster and Wild Play SuperBet preview
iSoftBet’s latest release is a neon-space-themed title ‘Booster’.
The game offers free spins, multipliers, or a random prize of 6,000 coins.
NextGen Gaming will launch ‘Wild Play’ to its SuperBet series portfolio in July 2017.
‘Wild Play SuperBet’ offers Wild Multipliers, Free Games and Doubled Wilds.
Fantasma Games Launch First Title
Simple mechanics, but a lot of fun
Stockholm-based games developer Fantasma Games has releases its debut title “Super Sumo.”
This 25-payline game features a rather amusing sound track and appealing animated characters, inspired by Japanese Sumo Wrestlers.
The 5×3 board depicts five different Sumo wrestler symbols alongside playing card symbols. Features include Bonus Scatters, a Super Free Spins game, Wilds, Sticky Wilds, Re-Spins and Scatters.
A grinning sumo wrestler represents Wilds which substitute for all regular symbols except the Scatter, and landing two or more wilds in a single spin will trigger the Re-Spin feature in which the Wilds will turn sticky.
“We are very happy to launch our first slot which we hope should add a great gambling experience to users and which is based on something that we like and believe in,” Fredrik Johansson, co-founder of Fantasma Gaming.
In keeping with the Asian theme, the company’s next release will be “Samurai Ken”, currently in development.

New Magic Target Title From Wazdan
Deluxe builds on original circus-themed title
Software provider Wazdan has released a build-on to its Magic Target title.
‘Magic Target Deluxe’ is a circus-themed 5-reel, twenty-payline slot featuring Wilds, Scatters and Bonus games.
The Wild is represented by the Joker and it can substitute for all other symbols except the Scatter and Multiplier. A bomb symbol is the Scatter, landing three anywhere on the reels will trigger a Free Spins round. The Multiplier is represented by a cannon. If a cannon lands on the middle reel during the Free Spins round, it doubles the win.
Wazdan launched four new titles in May, namely: Back to the 70s, Haunted Hospital, Hungry Shark and Jackpot Builders.

New Release From Genesis Gaming
Back to the arcade during the 80’s
Genesis Gaming’s newest slot title ‘8-bit Intruders’ will bring back memories from those who enjoyed the 80’s and arcade-style gaming.
It’s a 243-ways arcade-style slot featuring cascading reels that offers a frequent base game feature and a perceived skill bonus. Players “collect” the aliens as they land and blast the Asteroids that are caught in their gravitational field.
Laser turrets are used to defend the Earth from the 8-bit aliens and rogue asteroids. When an asteroid lands on a reel, the turrets will blast it away, revealing a credit award. The symbols above fill in the emptied space and any resulting new wins are paid out to the player.

Infopowa news was a staple of Casinomeister’s news from 2000 until 2019. Brian Cullingworth was the main writer, contributor, and was one of the most knowledgeable persons I have ever known involved in the online casino industry.
We first met in January 2001 at the ICE in London where I observed him going booth to booth interviewing online casino, software, and licensing jurisdiction representatives. Brian was also heavily involved with our forum as “Jetset“, he was involved as an informal consultant to eCOGRA, the OPA, and was a player advocate who assisted countless aggrieved players with his connections to industry folks. He also published “Casino Cautions” via Infopowa news for quite a number of years. These can be found in our news archives.
His passing in February 2019 was a dark day for us. He will be forever missed.
