Yggdrasil journeys back to paradise with Tiki Runner GigaBlox™
Leading iGaming publisher Yggdrasil and YG Masters partner Bulletproof Games have rolled out Tiki Runner GigaBlox™, a tropical sequel to a fan-favourite, utilising popular mechanics and new features.
Heading back to a pristine paradise, the popular Tiki masks return on a 6×4 grid, offering 4,096 ways to win, while GigaBlox™, one of Yggdrasil’s leading Game Engagement Mechanics (GEMs), ensures that a supersized symbol lands on every spin.
The colourful title also features a cascading reel mechanic, where after two or more successful combinations, low paying symbols start to be removed from the reels. The more winning tumbles, the more icons are removed, until only Tiki masks remain.
To the left of the reels is a Totem Pole which is the key to the unique Win it Again feature, the Tiki Prize. This feature offers a win-now prize, initially set at 20x, but can increase depending on the max win. Any time a boomerang lands on the reels, it is thrown to the left, potentially knocking over the Totem and awarded a prize.
Five or more bonus symbols are required to launch the bonus round, where up to 24 spins can be awarded. During the free spins mode, an incremental multiplier is applied, increasing by 1x every spin.
In certain jurisdictions, players can progress directly to the free spins through one of four buy bonus options, offering more spins for an increased cost, or a lucky dip option which randomises the amount of spins added.
Tiki Runner GigaBlox™ is the latest game developed by Bulletproof Games as part of the YG Masters program, after the success of Tiki Runner 2 DoubleMax™.
The title is powered by GATI, with Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to consistently produce cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.
Mark McGinley, Chief Gaming Officer at Yggdrasil, said: “A follow up to our holiday hit Tiki Runner 2 DoubleMax™, we return to the tropical isles in our latest collaboration with Bulletproof Games.
“With an exciting take on our GEM GigaBlox™, a symbol-remove mechanic, and an increasing multiplier, it is an action-packed adventure that isn’t to be missed!”
Michael Bullock, Product Director at Bulletproof Games, said: “We are thrilled to launch a sequel to one of our most popular titles in latest launch Tiki Runner GigaBlox. Through the YGG Masters program, we’re able to take original concepts and build engaging mechanics into them, producing games that appeal to ever widening audiences, combining our fantastic feel with proven features. It is another game we’re extremely proud of, and we are confident players will love it.”

ScatterKings Chooses Internet Vikings’ Hosting Solutions in Europe
Internet Vikings, a licensed hosting provider for the European and U.S. iGaming and online sports betting industry, has announced a new partnership with ScatterKings, an iGaming studio that creates high-performance slot content, helping operators lead their markets across regulated jurisdictions worldwide.
As part of this collaboration, Internet Vikings is supplying ScatterKings with a tailored hosting infrastructure that includes both bare metal servers and VMware cloud solutions in Sweden and Malta.

“We’ve been genuinely impressed with the level of support from Internet Vikings,” said Steven Batchelor-Manning, CTO of ScatterKings. “They’ve helped us avoid the usual hosting headaches and given us a rock-solid base to move fast. As we continue to grow, we see them as a strategic partner for the road ahead—one that can keep pace with our ambitions.”
Internet Vikings is equally enthusiastic about the partnership. Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings, noted the strategic fit: “ScatterKings needed a hosting solution that could adapt to their specific operational requirements. We’re committed to supporting their growth with infrastructure that evolves alongside their business.”

Reflex Gaming unleashes The Cursed Idol of Montezuma Treasure Hunt™ with exclusive Game Mechanic
Reflex Gaming, the UK’s largest independently owned omni-channel game supplier, is heading deep into ancient ruins with the launch of The Cursed Idol of Montezuma Treasure Hunt™, a visually stunning, Aztec-themed slot that introduces the company’s exclusive Treasure Hunt™ game mechanic.
This 6×4, 20-payline title combines mystery, tension and progressive gameplay in a setting inspired by the legends of Montezuma. At the heart of the experience is the Treasure Hunt™ game mechanic, a persistent pick-based mechanic that activates when two Scatter symbols land anywhere on the reels. Players are transported to a 30-segment treasure map where they can uncover Free Spins, cash prizes, Jackpots and Sticky Wild bonus upgrades. Unlike traditional features, the map carries over between sessions, allowing players to build progress over time. Crucially, Sticky Wilds uncovered on the map are banked and carried into the next Free Spins bonus triggered via the map itself, creating layered anticipation and meaningful long-term engagement.
Free Spins can also be triggered directly via 3 or more bonus symbols. Once active, players collect additional Scatter symbols to spin a bonus wheel that can award multipliers, more Sticky Wilds, or one of four fixed jackpots. With a maximum win potential of over 5000x, the feature is rich with excitement.
Adding to the thrill is the Montezuma Mystery Prize, a powerful feature triggered when players land full stacks of Montezuma symbols with the special Cursed Idol symbol. The game’s cinematic presentation shifts into high gear as the cursed idol unleashes a dramatic win event that transforms the reels and ramps up intensity.
The Cursed Idol of Montezuma Treasure Hunt™ also supports Golden Bet, which doubles the chance of triggering Free Spins, and includes Bonus Buy functionality in supported markets, ensuring the game caters to a wide range of player preferences and regulatory environments.
Commenting on the release, Mat Ingram, CPO at Reflex Gaming, said: “We’re incredibly proud of this one. The game introduces something truly unique with our Treasure Hunt game mechanic. It’s Reflex-built, Reflex-owned, and designed to deliver genuine progression and player investment over time. It’s a mechanic that remembers where you left off, and that’s something players will come back for.
“So far, the game has gained exceptional feedback from operators. We believe it’s a standout release for 2025, and we can’t wait to see how the market responds.”
The Cursed Idol of Montezuma Treasure Hunt™ is available from 16 September 2025 powered by Yggdrasil Gaming.
