The Thai government is exploring the possibility of restricting gambling areas within entertainment complexes to no more than 5% of the total project space. This proposal was revealed by Deputy Finance Minister Julapun Amornvivat, who also chairs the House committee responsible for evaluating the potential establishment of casino resorts in the country.

Amornvivat noted that the allocation of space for gaming activities within these entertainment complexes would be determined based on input from various governmental entities involved in a project.

Last month, Thailand’s cabinet approved a report from the National Assembly committee that examined the feasibility of introducing casino resorts in the country. The Ministry of Finance was tasked with conducting a 30-day study to assess the viability of implementing such a policy.

Each proposed venue would require a minimum investment of THB100 billion ($2.75 billion), according to the committee report. Amornvivat recently requested a two-week extension for the study period to further evaluate the matter in collaboration with 16 other government agencies.

The special House committee’s study focused on three main areas. First, it examined the potential impacts of introducing entertainment complexes with casinos on various aspects of Thai society, including economics, politics, social dynamics and the environment.

Second, the committee analysed the business framework of integrated entertainment venues, exploring revenue generation mechanisms such as taxes, fees and licensing structures. It recommended the implementation of specific casino taxes and the establishment of a fund aimed at addressing the negative effects of gambling activities.

Last, the report highlighted the importance of conducting a comprehensive review of the legal framework governing entertainment venues and gambling laws in Thailand. This effort aims to update existing legislation or develop new laws that align with the evolving societal landscape.

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has unveiled its hotly anticipated game, Quest to the Underworld. This game is part of the popular Spinomenal Adventure series.

Quest to the Underworld lures players in with its macabre setting that’s underscored with a chilling soundtrack. Medium symbols are made up of a vial, crossbow, goblet, and scroll.

Two Wild symbols, a glamorous lady and black gear, will substitute for any symbol except the Free Spins and Bonus symbols, hitting five Wild symbols on a winning line gives players a x1000 multiplier.

The Free Spins feature will trigger when three or more Scattered Free Spins symbols appear; these will do so only on reels 1, 3, and 5. During Free Spins, one Wild symbol will expand on a reel and stay in place until the round concludes. Players can pick from five options before beginning Free Spins, each deciding the position of the Stacked Wild and the number of free spins awarded.

Players can enter the bonus round by finding three or more Scattered bonus symbols. Once doing so, players will be presented with a three-levelled Wheel of Fortune. Three attempts are given to spin the wheel to win prizes such as multipliers, extra spins, or a level up to increase the value of potential rewards.

If a Countdown Wild symbol appears, it triggers a respin and remains on the reels with their countdown total decreasing by one after each spin. This mode continues until no Countdown Wilds remain.

Mystery symbols also have the potential to  appear randomly and transform to reveal one random symbol, adding an element of surprise and potential for big wins.

Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Quest to the Underworld takes players on an eerie adventure on the hunt for otherworldly returns. We are proud to give players a special and immersive experience that enhances our Adventure Series with slick mechanics and captivating gameplay.”
