This week has seen new games released by the likes of Pragmatic Play, Microgaming, iSoftBet, Nolimit City and MGA Games.
Pragmatic Play’s Aztec Bonanza
Pragmatic Play has released its latest slot title Aztec Bonanza.
The 5×6, variable ways slot transports players to the land of the Aztecs as they try to unlock the totem jewel. At first, four corners of the reels are covered in stone, which are opened through cascading wins, with two consecutive ones unlocking a separate corner of the reels and increasing the win potential.
As more corners are cracked, other features are triggered, with each section unlocked freeing another level of the totem to the right of the reels. If the totem is freed from its chains completely, the Free Spins mode is activated. When the full grid is unlocked, players can enjoy up to 7776 different ways to win.
“Aztec Bonanza offers a thrilling experience for players, combining tumbling wins, unique features and an ever-expanding reel layout to give the best opportunity possible to claim huge wins,” said Pragmatic Play chief commercial officer Melissa Summerfield.
“Aztec Bonanza’s proven theme, fast-paced gameplay and lucrative win potential gives it all the ingredients needed to be another standout hit in the Pragmatic Play slot portfolio.”

iSoftBet’s Racetrack Riches
iSoftBet has launched its latest slot game Racetrack Riches, the first game to showcase the supplier’s new Megaboard mechanic.
Released ahead of UK racing’s most prestigious jump festival at Cheltenham, Racetrack Riches features a joyful jockey who rides his way to deliver big results and big wins for players.
The games features iSoftBet’s proprietary Megaboard mechanic, a twist on the classic ‘lapper board’ mechanic. If the jockey completes three laps of the Megaboard which surrounds the reels, there is a big money multiplier waiting which offers players big wins and additional enhancements.
The Megaboard mechanic is also set to feature in a host of future iSoftbet titles in 2020, including the upcoming Cops and Robbers-themed release The Bank Job.
“The launch of Racetrack Riches is perfectly timed ahead of one of the sporting calendar’s biggest events of the year,” said iSoftBet head of games Mark Claxton. “Players who like a flutter at the Festival will love pitting their wits on our new game, attempting to complete three laps of our course and reach the finish line with the potential for massive winnings.
“Following this much anticipated release, there is so much more to come in 2020 as we continue to push the boundaries and launch features that players want and will keep coming back to time and again.”
Nolimit City’s Barbarian Fury
Nolimit City has expanded its portfolio with the release of Barbarian Fury.
Barbarian Fury takes inspiration from the 6th Century, and reintroduces the supplier’s xNudge mechanic on a 4×5 reel frame, with a 25-pay line set.
The game includes features such as; xNudge Roaring Wilds, nudging wilds that increases a multiplier with every nudge; Barbarian Respin, a second chance with a minimum of three locked high-paying symbols and the main free spins bonus; and Fury Spins, which combines the two features.
“Back to the roots where xNudge really began with a nudge filled video slot in a blazing cold environment where the fire and wins will keep you warm,” said Nolimit City product owner Per Lindheimer. “The innovative nudge mechanic to start off the Fury Spins is just as thrilling in the main game as when you buy the feature – expect your blood to chill from the suspense.”
