Swintt strikes gold in Dynamite Boost
Sought-after software provider’s latest SwinttSelect slot introduces an innovative new Booster Reels mechanic that lights the fuse on a selection of explosive bonus features
Having already put together a portfolio of SwinttSelect slots that’s visited all four corners of the globe, this month hot-shot software provider, Swintt, is mining deep beneath the earth’s surface in Dynamite Boost – an exciting, gold mine-themed game that’s packed with explosive features.
Played out in front of a backdrop of glittering caves and gold-laden carts, the new subterranean slot features all manner of mining-themed paraphernalia across its five reels. Unique symbols to feature in the game include pickaxes, hats, detonators, and bundles of dynamite, with the last of these icons acting as a substitute wild that can complete winning payout combinations across all 243 ways to win.
What makes the game unique, however, is the addition of an innovative new Booster Reels mechanic that can award random bonuses in both the base game and free spins feature. Sitting above the slot’s regular gameboard, the Booster Reel can add a number of exciting modifiers to the current spin, with these able to affect a single symbol, an individual column or, indeed, all five reels at once for big wins.
Modifiers offered by the Booster Reel include adding a selected regular symbol to a number of random reel spaces, introducing an expanding wild to the space below the booster icon, creating a giant 2×2 wild symbol in the centre of the reels and adding a random multiplier of 1-5x to the total amount won.
Additionally, the Booster Reel can also award both single reel and full table respins that apply all of the currently active boosters to the next 1-5 rounds, with these enabling players to get the maximum benefit out of their accumulated multipliers and wilds as they dig their way to maximum wins of up to 2,500x.
As they spin, players will also notice a selection of scatter symbols displaying numerical values between 3 and 20. Should three or more of these land at once, the numbers will be totalled together and that many free spins will be awarded – with Dynamite Boost bonuses also available throughout the feature.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “Moving into 2024, one of our biggest priorities was to expand the range of quality content that’s available to both operators and players via the SwinttSelect range – and in our new Dynamite Boost slot, we’ve certainly got off to an explosive start!”
“Featuring an innovative new game mechanic that adds all manner of in-reel bonuses to current round or – if they’re especially lucky – the next 1-5 subsequent respins, Dynamite Boost offers players the chance to strike gold multiple times on every spin. Couple that with the slot’s 243 ways to win and easy-to-trigger free spins feature and we’re sure it’s going to be a big hit when it launches this month.”

Commenting on the improved schedule, Terry Mahoney, Head of Business Development at ARC, said: “The new race times will help make it easier for customers to navigate busy racing schedules as well as improving operations trackside. We will continue to listen, monitor, and adapt schedules where and when needed as we move forward to deliver the best service possible for betting operators as well as punters.”
Paul Witten, Managing Director at SIS, added: “We are passionate about delivering a greyhound racing service that benefits all of the sport’s stakeholders. Together with Premier Greyhound Raxing, we have introduced a revised racing schedule that benefits operators and their customers.
“Our approach to greyhound racing is grounded in sustainability and flexibility. This collaboration with fellow service providers allows everyone to enjoy all the high-quality action produced on a daily basis from tracks across the UK and Ireland.”

PRAGMATIC PLAY HITS THE SWEET SPOT WITH FRUITY TREATS
Pragmatic Play, a leading content supplier to the iGaming industry, has added Fruity Treats to its collection of clusters pays Slots.
Five or more fruit symbols must connect horizontally or vertically to award a win in this vibrant 7×7 title, which features a variation of the popular multiplier spots mechanic.
At the start of each spin, four marked spots of different colours take up random positions on the grid. If a win forms over a marked spot, a starting multiplier of 5x, 10x, 15x or 20x (depending on the spot colour) will be activated. Each time a winning combination lands on a marked spot after a tumble, the multiplier is applied to the win and then increases by its starting value.
Hitting at least three candy scatters on a spin awards entry to the bonus game with 10 free spins. During the feature, which can be retriggered with five additional free spins, activated multipliers from marked spots do not reset between free spins, potentially leading to massive wins.
Fruity Treats is the latest cluster pays Slot in Pragmatic Play’s multi-award-winning range, joining recent hit Sugar Rush 1000.
Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “The roaming multiplier spots feature in Fruity Treats sets it apart from other successful cluster pays Slots in the Pragmatic Play portfolio, with marked spots staying sticky in the bonus game for even greater win potential.”
Pragmatic Play currently produces up to eight new Slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through a single API.
