AvatarUX strikes streaming deal with CasinoGround
Agreement will see supplier showcase its games portfolio to leading online casino community
Innovative games design studio AvatarUX has signed a deal with CasinoGrounds, which will see the supplier showcase its entire games portfolio to one of the world’s largest online casino communities via streamers.
Through the 12-month agreement, AvatarUX will be able to showcase its content directly to passionate slot players and receive feedback that will help it improve on future games.
As well as playing the games live to its audience via different channels, CasinoGrounds’ streamers will also hold competitions featuring AvatarUX’s titles, increasing engagement levels even further.
The CasinoGrounds community has grown to become one of the biggest in the world since its launch in 2016 and the streams now have millions of monthly views on its Twitch and YouTube channels.
AvatarUX’s expanding games portfolio will be played by CasinoGrounds streamers, including titles incorporating the hugely popular PopWins™ mechanic, such as player-favourites CherryPop™ and BountyPop™ as well as upcoming release TikiPop™.
The PopWins™ mechanic sees winning combinations pop, with each pop creating two new symbols, leading to increased chances of multiple wins. The power of PopWins™ can expand the rows of a slot from four to seven, increasing the ways to win from 243 to 33,614.
Marcus Honney, Managing Director at AvatarUX, said: “This is an agreement we are extremely excited about as we consider streamers to be an integral part of our game development strategy as they aggregate customer insights via their forums.
“By collaborating with streamers, we really celebrate our games, and the customer campaigns will grant us a direct connection to the end-users which is otherwise impossible as a games studio. This kind of agreement provides insightful feedback that will assist us in making our games and our PopWins™ mechanic even better.”
Tobias Svensen, CEO at CasinoGrounds, said: “AvatarUX’s PopWins™ games have proven very popular with players and offers exciting gameplay with a high hit rate and frequently triggered features that offer a thrilling slot experience which is a perfect fit for our channels.
“Our streaming community continues to grow and we are certain that our experienced players and their enthusiastic viewers are going to love AvatarUX’s games.”

Spinomenal releases ‘Break the Piggy’ Bank title
Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has enhanced its impressive slot portfolio with the release of Break the Piggy Bank. The game is part of the Classics Series.
A vault stacked high with gold coins sets the scene for this fun slot game that is presented within a 5×3 frame. Sacks of gold coins, pigs, wads of cash and a dazzling diamond make up the medium symbols.
Three or more Golden Piggy Bank symbols will instantly launch the Free Spins mode. Here players can win 10 Free Spins with three Piggy Banks, 15 Free Spins with four, and cool 20 Free Spins with five. Find the Golden Hammer to break into the Piggy Bank and players will benefit from its power to substitute for all other symbols except for the scattered Free Spins symbol.
Spinomenal’s Instant Cash feature is in play too and will activate every time the reel spins and the Instant Cash symbol will randomly present four possible values that are collected in Free Spins. Instant Cash symbols are possible to save up during the round before they grow the Free Spins metre at the top of the reels.
Once four Wild symbols are secured, players will earn 10 additional free spins and on all future spins until the free spins finishes. It also means that the Small Instant Cash symbol (pays x2 or x5 of the total bet) turns into a Medium Instant Cash symbol which pays out x10 or x15 of the total bet.
Eight Wild symbols discovered means players will collect six further free spins on all future spins until the free spins end. The Medium Instant Cash symbols are transformed into Large Instant Cash symbols, which pays out x20 or x25 of the total bet.
After finding 12 Wilds symbols, players collect another four additional free spins and on all future spins until the free spins end. This then takes players to the final level where the Huge Instant Cash symbol is activated and pays either x50 or x2000 the total bet.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Players will be lining up to take a spin on our latest game to join the classics series, Break the Piggy Bank. We’re on the money again with this one as the free games and Instant Cash mechanic promise a wealth of fun.”
