PRAGMATIC PLAY COOKS UP A TREAT WITH YUM YUM POWERWAYS
Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the gaming industry, has unveiled its tastiest new treat, Yum Yum Powerways.
A central 4×4 grid is enhanced by outer reels that can deliver even bigger wins, with each of the 16 symbols in the matrix acting as independent reels. Any win will grant a tumbling respin in this 16,834 ways to win hit. Every respin will also increase the multiplier by 1x.
During base play, three or more Scatters can trigger Free Spins, where players will either enter the Gamble Bonus Game or the Free Game. Yum Yum Powerways is a multi-step bonus game, where the player will have a choice either to gamble or keep his current award each time. If the player wins, their award is increased and if they lose, the award is reduced.
With an increasing multiplier of 3x, as well as roaming wilds, huge wins are available in the bonus game of up to 5,000x.
The Powerways feature sees players able to win with four symbols in a row from left to right, right to left, up to down and down to up. The increased ways to win ensure players remain engaged for every drop of a symbol.
In certain jurisdictions, it is also possible to purchase free spins, which can be gambled the same way as those in the base game.
Yum Yum Powerways is the latest hit developed by the leading provider, following recent popular titles 5 Lions Megaways, Panda’s Fortune 2 and Fruit Party 2.
Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “Our continuous determination to bring excellent products to our players takes another step forward with Yum Yum Powerways.
“Yum Yum Powerways brings engaging features to the table, as well as a great win potential, leaving players craving more in this treat-filled title!”
Pragmatic Play currently produces up to five new slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through one single API.

Barcelona will take ‘extraordinary ICE to another level’ – predicts safer gambling expert
Art Paikowsky has served as President of the International Center for Responsible Gaming (ICRG) since October 2021. During this period, he has helped to more than double the level of resources secured by the organization resulting in over 25 studies currently being conducted. At ICE 2024 the ICRG was one of two safer gambling organisations to share the £41,000 pool raised by brands comprising Light and Wonder, Flutter, Betsson Group, IGT, Novomatic, Neccton and Playtech.
What are your overall impressions of ICE and how much are you looking forward to its relocation to Barcelona?
AP: “ICE itself is an amazing seamless exercise that is so fantastically well planned that it’s almost unbelievable. With the continued upgrade in content, I believe that Clarion is committed to improvement which I have experienced each year. Barcelona is one of my personal favorite European cities, the conference center is in an excellent location and the food is to die for. I can only expect that the move will take an already extraordinary event to another level.”
Have you decided how you will be using the £20,500 – is there a specific project or piece of research that it will fund/help fund?
AP: “We were surprised and elated to receive the award and we are very grateful to Clarion for all that it has done on behalf of ICRG. One of the methods of funding research is that investigators from all over the world apply for grants from our unrestricted funds. These requests are reviewed independently by the Scientific Advisory Board and are awarded several times throughout the year. These funds are a significant allocation to our grant pool.”
How important is it for a major b2b gambling event to have a show feature that’s dedicated to safer gambling?
AP: “Even as recently as a couple of years ago at conferences that I attended it was difficult to locate anything featuring safer gambling. Not only did ICE feature this important topic but the content was of such value that it was difficult to get a seat at the sessions! Thanks should go to Clarion for its leadership here.”
From a safer gambling perspective what were the main talking points at ICE 2024?
AP: “The UK government’s White Paper was very much in the mind’s eye and there was a great deal of attention as to how technology might impact safer gambling. Our research has identified emerging adults as an at risk market and the accessibility of gambling options on the phone must be examined more closely: we have several studies underway to learn more about this. Sports betting, regulation and advertising were all top of mind.”
2024 marks your 25th anniversary year – how good was it to celebrate the landmark at ICE?
AP: “One of the things that I noted when I started at ICRG two and a half years ago was that the organization had done terrific work but generally flew under the radar screen. To launch our 25th anniversary year at ICE with the exposure that we received and the recognition as Charity of the Year was of tremendous value. This will help stage both our 25th anniversary golf tournament in May in Las Vegas as well as our signature educational conference scheduled in October.”
