Financial Results

Casino and Hotel registered $51.5 million in July, a rise of 4.5% from July 2019. Hollywood Casinos amassed $7 million, while Rocky Gap Casino collected $5.5 million.

Horseshoe Baltimore and Ocean Downs Casino generated revenues of $15.8 million and $7.76 million, respectively, as gross gaming revenue (GGR) in the state for July 2020 reached £139.9 million, which is a drop of 6.3% year-on-year.

New Survey

Troy Wyatt, founder of Seattle Entertainment Group, has organised a survey among owners of Native American casinos to figure out how they are tackling the Covid-19 crisis. The participants included 457 tribal chairmen-women and over 230 CEOs of Native American casinos.

The survey shows that a majority of casinos (92%) have implemented the safety procedures for smooth re-opening. Only 6% of Native American casinos still remain closed. Nearly all (97%) said the $8 billion in COVID relief package is not sufficient. Only 3% of respondents are confident of regaining normal mode of functioning by the end of this year.

1spin4win presents a new Samurai tale in the Japanese saga with Way of Honor Hold and Win

Published

on

Reading Time: 2 minutes

1spin4win, a classic online slot provider, unfolds the Japanese novel with Way of Honor Hold and Win — the third chapter of the series, revealing the Samurai part of the story.

The new title has been selected for exclusive pre-release by partner casinos, including Irwin, Gizbo, Jet, Izzi, and Fresh. This follows the pattern set by the two earlier entries in the series — Tiger’s Steps Hold and Win, the top-performing April release by bet sum, and Gentle Fox Hold and Win. This indicates that the collection’s blend of well-balanced gameplay and captivating storytelling continues to resonate with the audience.

Being the third installment of the saga, Way of Honor Hold and Win advances the narrative by giving voice to yet-unheard characters — honorable samurai Mizuiro and Midoriiro. Devoted warriors, they pledged unwavering loyalty to the shogun and the powerful Masahide family. Their moral compass is the Way of Honor — a sacred samurai code that guides them to defend the ruler’s right to maintain peace and the balance of power. Every day, at the crack of dawn, the samurai rise to protect the shogun’s castle and ancient scrolls that hold the secrets of longevity.

Olga Bogdanova, the Art Director at 1spin4win, shared, “Way of Honor Hold and Win is a worthy continuation of our Japanese slot series, united by a shared storyline. By crafting a rich and detailed samurai-themed narrative, we aimed to offer players more than just standard reel-spinning. Instead, we invite them to become active participants in the story, who can take sides, make decisions, and influence the course of events. We hope they enjoy the game’s immersive atmosphere and generous winning opportunities.”

However, the meticulously crafted plot is only one of the things the latest Japanese slot can boast. It remains faithful to 1spin4win’s key hallmarks — well-balanced math, transparent mechanics, and minimalist design. Way of Honor Hold and Win is a medium-volatility game featuring 243 paylines, a 97.1% RTP, and a x1,300 max multiplier.

The main attraction of the new title is the Hold and Win round, popular with players for the thrill of anticipation and the chance to win big. Triggered by three or more gold Coins on the 5×3 layout, the Bonus game offers three starting respins and two Jackpots — the x100 Minipot Coin or the x1,000 Megapot.

About 1spin4win

1spin4win is a fast-growing game provider founded in May 2021 by ambitious developers with over 15 years of experience in the gambling industry. Since its inception, the company has expanded its portfolio to include over 150 classic online slots, all characterized by quality mathematics, transparent mechanics, and well-balanced gameplay — key factors that drive strong player retention.
