STAR-STUDDED CAST TO SUPPORT 8 BALL POOL’S GLOBAL GIFT FOUNDATION CHARITY EVENT
Miniclip, a global leader in digital games, has announced a partnership with the Global Gift Foundation to bring a charity event to its number one mobile game, 8 Ball Pool, supported by Hollywood’s finest, including Eva Longoria and Luke Evans.
The event will take place between 12th and 19th May as part of Global Gift Foundation Week, where 8 Ball Pool players can chalk up their limited-edition cues and avatars, including a special Global Gift cue.
Over 40 global superstars have pledged their support of the event including Eva Longoria, Denise Van Outen, Ronan & Storm Keating, Luis Fonsi, Luke Evans, Olivier Giroud, Mikel Arteta, Vanessa Williams and Anastacia. All net-profit from in-app purchases of Global Gift Foundation offers during the event will be donated by Miniclip to the Global Gift Foundation.
Rafael Rodrigues, Product Director 8 Ball Pool, commented: “This partnership is an incredible opportunity for us to give back and use our platform to support worthwhile and life-changing causes.
“As a global company with offices around the world, partnering with a charity that supports people on a global scale is an amazing feeling. The Global Gift Foundation is fully aligned with our goals of providing vital support that positively impacts people across the world, not just in the games industry. We’re extremely proud to support them, with a star-studded group behind us to drive the fundraising efforts.”
The Global Gift Foundation is a charity that supports the lives of children, women, and families in need. This is the first time they have partnered with Miniclip for such an event, where they have come together to work towards a shared goal of equality across the globe.
The money donated during Global Gift Foundation Week will support projects and causes such as Casa Ángeles, in Spain – an amazing place that makes life better for kids with special needs and their families, helping the children to grow, learn, and become more independent, both physically and mentally. Another project is the Quang Chau Orphanage in Vietnam, home to children who have been left behind and abandoned, offering everything they need to thrive: food, medical care, education, and so much more. It is a place where the children can feel loved and cared for, and are surrounded by people who genuinely want to see them succeed and be happy.
Maria Bravo, Founder and CEO at the Global Gift Foundation, said: “We’re delighted to partner with Miniclip to host this amazing charity event. The money raised will contribute to some incredible causes across the globe and we are so grateful for their support. We’d also like to give honorary thanks to our celebrity ambassadors who have brought the event to life.”
8 Ball Pool is Miniclip’s number one game and was awarded a Guinness World Records™ Title for the Most Downloaded Mobile Pool Game in 2021. It has been the most downloaded mobile pool game since 2014, and is played for 260 million hours every month, with 4,000 balls potted every second.

Blueprint Gaming introduces new Volcano feature in explosive Lava Lock Jackpot King™
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Blueprint Gaming has turned up the heat in its latest release, Lava Lock Jackpot King, with the sweltering title leading with a new Volcano feature and a host of refreshed modifiers for an enriched gameplay experience.
Pele, the goddess of volcanoes, takes centre stage in the 5×3, 30 payline slot. Landing solely on the central position, if she appears alongside a volcano scatter symbol, the newly introduced Volcano feature is triggered, which results in a respin where random positions turn into instant cash rewards.
The Hawaiian princess also holds the key to the Free Spins bonus. If landed, there is a chance that one or two of the Tiki heads above the reels will light up, resulting in either six or 12 Pele spins, respectively, with her position remaining fixed throughout the bonus round.
In an intriguing development to base play, the Pele symbol also has the power to grant rewards from locked symbols, including one of four in-game jackpots rising to 2,500x. Cash add, Pele add, and Cash spin also stand as three bonus modifiers available in both the main game and bonus game, optimising the chance for increased win potential.
The volcanic offering also offers the pull of the industry’s most recognisable and lucrative progressive jackpot systems, Jackpot King, ramping up the anticipation with an array of prize-filled pots.
Marking the award-winning studio’s latest addition to its offering, Lava Lock Jackpot King reinforces Blueprint’s ability to cleverly craft fresh themed, bountiful titles for its operators’ players to enjoy worldwide.
Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing, PR and Events, said: “Lava Lock Jackpot King showcases Blueprint’s commitment to constant creativity. By introducing the Volcano Feature and new gameplay mechanics, we have delivered another dynamic title that keeps our Jackpot King portfolio feeling fresh and energetic.
“With an array of immersive releases still to come during the festive months, our fiery Pele offering kickstarts November in style.”
