The UK Gambling Commission has launched its Gambling Harms Action Lab (GHAL). Proposed back in 2019 as part of its National Strategy to Reduce Gambling Harms, the new initiative aims to shape how financial institutions can help address problem gambling.

Speaking at the lauch Tim Miller, executive director of the Gambling Commission, said financial services providers could collaborate with the gambling sector and play a key role in achieving a more holistic response to gambling harm.

“You need a range of perspectives to truly understand the complexities of gambling harms. Financial services providing access to their anonymised consumer data has allowed us to work with Warwick Business School to start building that much richer understanding of how harms develop and how they can be addressed,” he said.

“Money and Mental Health have already played a vital role in helping to encourage the involvement of the financial services industry in this vital area of consumer protection work. The Gambling Harms Action Lab will help to bring some structure and focus to those collaborative efforts. And that focus will be important.”

Over the next three years, the GHAL aims to give structure to how the financial sector helps tackle problem gambling. That will include meetings with people with lived experiences of problem gambling to develop strategies.

Miller said: “To those in the room today that are from the financial sector my message to you is, you may not be the cause of gambling harm but you have an amazing opportunity to be part of the solution. To work collaboratively to find creative ways of better protecting gambling consumers, consumers who are also your customers. So please, do not miss your chance to help make gambling safer.”

Peter & Sons’ Radioactive Fishing Game ‘Muddy Waters’ Hits November 14

Peter & Sons’ Radioactive Fishing Game ‘Muddy Waters’ Hits November 14
Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

New from Peter & Sons comes Muddy Waters, a game that will send your Geiger counter up to 11. This high-volatility and highly radioactive slot comes packed with symbol multipliers, power-ups and a unique fishing mechanic, and hits general release on 14th November.

Muddy Waters riffs on the popular fishing-slot genre, but since this is the weird and wonderful world of Peter & Sons, it gets flipped on its head, because this game is about reeling in radioactive fish. After all, what could be more relaxing than a gentle spot of fishing in a post-apocalyptic comic hellscape of the not-too-distant future?

Our brave fisherman explores a dangerous radioactive sea zone, where mutated fish hold the key to massive rewards. Armed with just a fishing rod, dynamite and a boatload of roast chickens for bait, he’s here to catch the most impressive—and hazardous—fish. Will you help him reel in the big one, or will the radioactive waters send you home empty-handed?

In the base game, landing two SC symbols triggers the Fishing Feature. As the fisherman reels in his prey, the multiplier doubles with each move. But beware, the fish can escape at any time, adding extra suspense to each catch. The Free Spins feature delivers even bigger wins with increasing multipliers and additional power-ups.

The fisherman throws bait into the water, multiplying fish values by 2x, 3x, or 5x if they take the bait. Meanwhile, larger fish hunt smaller ones, absorbing their multipliers.

Watch out for the dynamite, available in the Super and Mega Free Spins rounds. This feature instantly catches fish nearby with powerful multipliers.

Can’t wait for the bonus round? The Golden Bet feature allows players to pay 1.2x the bet to double their chances of hitting Free Spins. Or they can just buy directly into Free Spins, Super Free Spins, and Mega Free Spins for 80x, 100x, and 250x their bet, respectively.

Yann Bautista Commercial Director & Founder at Peter & Sons said: “Kudos to our brilliant artists for creating a gloriously quirky game. Muddy Waters really showcases what Peter & Sons does best – taking a popular, often-repeated genre and injecting it with humour and weirdness to create something that is totally unique. This is a fishing game but it’s also like nothing you’ve ever played before.”

Belatra serves up delicious new release Cafe Pin-Up
Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

Belatra Games, the specialist online slots developer, has served up Cafe Pin-Up, a slot that whisks players away to a vibrant 1950s diner, where retro glamour meets thrilling gameplay.

Players take a seat inside a charming cafe, where pin-up girls are on hand to deliver delicious dishes in a raucous atmosphere created by a jukebox playing toe-tapping tunes. The game is presented in a 5×4 grid with 20 paylines with the Pin-Up Girl Wild symbol playing the key role.

The Pin-Up Girl Wild symbol reaches the height of four symbols and is instrumental in all winning combinations. Each time the symbol appears, either partially or completely on at least two reels during the main game, all the Pin-Up Girl symbols across the reels expand to cover the entire reel. Players’ chances of hitting a win increases as the Pin-Up Girl symbol expands.

A Respins feature will also be dished out once the reels have been filled with Pin-Up Girl Wilds. The number of respins awarded corresponds to the number of Wilds on the reels. Each time a new Pin-Up Girl symbol appears during the respins, it expands to cover the full reel and grants an additional respin, remaining in place until the end of the round.

The Golden Star Scatter symbol is only active during the main game and will trigger a round of seven free games when three are discovered.  The Pin-Up Girl symbol is even more powerful in this bonus round as it can hit multipliers and lock Wilds in place. Four Scatters in the main game awards eight free games and five Scatters returns nine free games. When five mistresses in blue land on the free games reels, the highest possible win has been achieved and the game ends.

Sergey Chernyavski, Belatra Games’ CCO, said: “The game’s playful vintage atmosphere brings the golden era of diners to life, complete with beautiful decor and lively entertainment. Whether you’re drawn in by the stylish pin-up art or the mouthwatering menu, Cafe Pin-Up offers an irresistible blend of nostalgia and modern slot excitement.”
