Allwyn AG, a leading multi-national lottery operator, announced a three-year partnership with the Future Frames programme, part of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival (Karlovy Vary IFF), that will afford an emerging European director the chance to work with the best in Hollywood.

Allwyn, in collaboration with Future Frames, announced it will sponsor a new month-long scholarship to Los Angeles for one director each year to learn from the best in the film industry, with a dedicated programme of mentoring, shadowing and training.

Since 2015, the Future Frames programme has enabled European directors to launch their careers in the film industry. Each year, ten promising directors are invited to the Karlovy Vary IFF to showcase their films, receive tailored mentorship and training, and build relationships with people established in the industry. Now, Allwyn’s partnership expands the opportunity globally.

Also as part of the partnership, Allwyn is introducing an awards ceremony during the festival that will celebrate the work of all ten selected directors.

Established in 1946, the Karlovy Vary IFF is one of the oldest European film festivals. It takes place this year from 30th June to 8th July 2023.

Pavel Turek, Allwyn’s Chief Officer of Global Brand, Corporate Communication, and CSR, said: “Through this partnership, Allwyn is continuing to grow its community of winners around the globe. We’re passionate about changing lives for the better and this extends beyond those who buy a lottery ticket. It means supporting those who strive to achieve greatness in society, including in the arts. Initiatives like Future Frames ensure that opportunity is spread across generations, and, as we build the lotteries of the future, we are equally committed to ensure future generations also benefit from the good we provide to society.”

Kryštof Mucha, Executive Director of the Karlovy Vary IFF, said: “Thanks to our new partner, Allwyn, and our close collaboration with talent agency UTA and management company Range Media Partners, we can provide promising European directors with a vital opportunity to kick-start their careers and further their creative development, as well as the chance to gain experience from renowned figures in the world of film. The Karlovy Vary Film Festival continues its long-term strategy of discovering and supporting the filmmakers of the future.”

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its new hit, Queen of the Amazon. Set amongst the lush rainforest, this 5×4 slot welcomes players on an adventure where treasure awaits intrepid explorers.

A majestic Amazon headdress, tiger, gorilla, and snake, make up the Medium symbols on the reels. At the heart of the story stands the queen herself, representing the Wild symbol. Her symbol can substitute for any other symbol on the reels, except for the Free Spins and Bonus symbols. Discovering five Wilds on a winning line will multiply the bet line by 2000.

Synced Reels, where two random reels on the screen mirror each other, are in play to potentially boost players’ chances of winning. Furthermore, with the Expanding Wild feature, wilds appearing on synced reels expand to fill the entire reel, unlocking even greater winning potential.

Players will be able to enter Free Spins when three Scattered Wilds appear. Before commencing the round, players face a choice in the gamble feature: collect the current free spins total or risk it for the opportunity to win as many as 50 free spins. During Free Spins, the entertainment goes on with Stacked Wilds where 1-3 stacked wilds are fixed on random reels for every spin.

The Bonus round will trigger with three or more Scattered Bonus treasure chest symbols. Players are tasked to uncover treasure chests to complete the multiplier metre on the left. Each segment is completed with five treasure chests to grow the multiplier, while a +1 spin symbol extends the feature.

Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Queen of the Amazon is a powerful presence and this new game celebrates the ferocious female warrior. This slot is bursting with fun features and the bonus round promises huge returns for players.”

Provider injects lively Energy Coins theme with mischievous joker

Playson, the fast-growing digital entertainment supplier, has combined the striking themes of its most successful games in its latest title Energy Joker: Hold and Win.

With coins, electricity and a grinning joker, this fast-paced release has lightning running through its reels. The blue Collect feature strikes the cells and gathers all values, including the Mini, Minor and Major jackpots and Bonus symbols.

The game’s Wild symbol, the joker, substitutes for all symbols on the reels, except Bonus and Collect icons. In the Multiplier feature, he returns once more, using newfound powers to upgrade cells in the Bonus Game to higher value wins. This feature sees coin, jackpot and collect symbols enhanced by random multipliers of x2, x3, x4, x5 or x10 within a cell.

If a Multiplier symbol lands in a cell that already has a multiplier, the previous amount will increase by the corresponding one. They remain on the reels and apply to respective cells when the Bonus Game ends.

Four in-play jackpots appear during the Bonus Game and trigger the corresponding amounts. On Bonus symbols, the Mini equals x25, Minor x50 and Major x150, while all 15 Bonus symbols landing on the reels triggers a Grand jackpot of x5,000 bets.

Another iconic feature of Playson’s titles is the Pile of Gold. Any Bonus or Collect symbols landing on the reels during the main game grant the chance to trigger it, then add Bonus, Collect or Multiplier symbols in quantity enough or more to activate the Bonus Game.

This unforgettable release demonstrates Playson’s deep awareness of its players’ tastes and combines its most successful games into one epic title.

Tamas Kusztos, CCO at Playson, said: “We have a well-established reputation for delivering high-energy slots with unrivalled graphics and animations. With Energy Joker: Hold and Win, we take this to a new level.
