iSoftBet launches epic Viking slot adventure Thunder Shields

iSoftBet, the leading online games supplier and content aggregator, has released Nordic epic Thunder Shields, the first slot to feature a three-tiered jackpot within a ‘Hold and Win’ game.
The high production, action-packed Thunder Shields is iSoftBet’s fourth game to contain its highly popular Hold and Win mechanic, taking it to a new level with Booster Shields in the feature, Colossal Respins, Thunderstorm Prizes and Mystery Spins.
During base gameplay, a Hammer symbol acts not only as a Wild, but also triggers the Colossal Respin modifier, where giant symbols appear, covering up to four reels and leading to huge wins. The Mystery spins feature sees at least three reels land as stacked mystery symbols, which all reveal the same symbol for impressive win potential.
To trigger the Hold and Win Bonus, six or more Cash Shields need to land on the reels, awarding three respins. Every time a new shield lands, the respin counter resets. Thunder Shields’ Booster’s come into play during this mode, with different colour shields revealing a different modifier. This can be multiplier increases, collector shields to bank all money already on the board and clear it for more opportunities to win, as well as a Reel Boost, Cash Boost or Respins Boost, all of which further add to the thrill of battle during the Bonus Round.
Thunder Shields is the latest addition to iSoftBet’s growing slot offering, which has seen numerous Megaways™ and Hold and Win titles added this year, with Thunder Shields following Shining King Megaways™ in the supplier’s portfolio.
Mark Claxton, Head of Games at iSoftBet, said: “Thunder Shields sees our Viking warriors set sail on the high seas in search of treasure in our latest top performing Hold and Win game. Packed full of features, the bonus round has the potential to lead to massive wins.
“We’re thrilled with this title. We consistently strive to create unique content for a diverse range of demographics, and the development of our Hold and Win series of games has been a real point of pride this year.”

Fortuna Zakłady Bukmacherskie Wins Best Bookmaker Title at 2020 Polish Bookmakers Awards

Fortuna Zakłady Bukmacherskie has won the Best Bookmaker title at 2020 edition of Legalni Bukmacherzy’s Polish Bookmakers Awards.
The Polish arm of Czech gambling group Fortuna Entertainment Group took home the Best Offer and Responsible Bookmaker titles too and claimed a joint Best Marketing prize with forBET.
Also, Fortuna employee Igor Kośliński was honoured with the Best Affiliate Manager Award as the bookmaker swept five awards out of eight different categories.
A total of 12 categories were included at this year’s Awards, with the nominees and winners decided by a group of top experts within the Polish betting and gaming industry. Meanwhile, the winner of the Customers Choice Award was voted by the players as legalnibukmacherzy.pl.
Adam Bieliński, CEO of iGamingNuts – the company behind Legalni Bukmacherzy, said: “The previous year was very specific. All of the assumptions concerning acquisition and marketing strategies had to be changed due to the cancelation of major sports events and suspension of games in top leagues.
“The whole industry approached the subject in a creative way – the bookmakers extended their offers, introduced new marketing activities, and most importantly, they did not abstain from improving their products.”
