Amusnet Releases Coin Gobbler ā Christmas Edition
Ā
Amusnet has unveiled a great seasonal addition to its Online Casino portfolio, Coin Gobbler ā Christmas Edition. It features one of the companyās most likeable characters and a new theme that brings joy and a Christmasy mood.
Once again, the distinguished gentleman Oscar and his favourite pet ā the golden piggy ā are here. This time, they are set within a fun and colourful Christmas theme to put everyone in the right mood for the upcoming winter holiday season while guiding players through the game and helping them gather the precious Bonus coins. Again, the game features a cluster pay method and a 6Ć6 layout complemented by high-quality graphics and cheerful sound effects.
Apart from the fruity symbols and the combinations they form on the reels, players should also watch for the Golden Coin, which is the Free Spins symbol, and will help them boost their winnings. All Golden Coins are collected in their piggy bank, and the more coins players collect, the higher level they reach and the more Free Spins they get. The most impatient players can also use the Buy Bonus feature to try out the Free Spins as quickly as possible without collecting the necessary number of coins.
Cluster
A unique type of online slot game that eliminates traditional paylines and features cluster pay mechanics, where a minimum number of matching symbols must appear adjacent to each other horizontally or vertically to form a cluster and secure a win.
Progressive Free Spins
The Free Spins have a round progression feature. Besides the slot screen is a Progression bar with five levels ā 2Ć2, 3Ć3, 4Ć4, 5Ć5 and 6Ć6. Each level indicates the size of the Wild symbol once reached. All Bonus Coin symbols landing anywhere on the reels are collected until the end of the round, with a new level reached for every 4 Bonus Coin symbols collected.
Buy Bonus
When the āBuy Bonusā button is activated, the player is enabled to buy Free Spins.
Gamble
Play the game and multiply your winning through the Gamble feature!
Jackpot Cards
Once the Jackpot Cards bonus game is triggered, impressive Jackpots are revealed!

Marcus Boyle to Step Down as Chair of Gambling Commission
Ā
Marcus Boyle has announced his decision to step down as Chair of the Gambling Commission, with his term set to conclude on 31 January 2025.
Over the past three years, he has led the Commission through a period of change in the industry and regulatory landscape.
During his tenure, the Commission reached several key milestones, including the awarding and launch of the fourth National Lottery licence, which has driven funds raised for good causes to exceed Ā£50 billion. He has also overseen the ongoing implementation of the Gambling Act Review and White Paper aimed at reducing gambling harm, as well as the recruitment of a whole new Board of Commissioners.
In April 2024, the Commission published a comprehensive three-year strategy outlining planned advancements through 2027, focusing on transparency and data use. With the strategy now in motion, Marcus leaves the Commission in a strong position and with a clearly defined path forward.
The Board of Commissioners and colleagues at the Gambling Commission have expressed their gratitude for Marcusās leadership, dedication, and contributions over the past three years, wishing him well for the future.
The Minister for Gambling, Baroness Twycross, said: āThe past three years have been very significant for the Commission, as it takes forward measures set out in the Gambling Act Review and the start of the fourth National Lottery licence.
āI am grateful for Marcusās hard work and commitment to the Gambling Commission and public service over his tenure and wish him the best for his future endeavours.ā
