Reading Time: < 1 minute

TaDa Gaming, the award-winning casino content provider, has released Clover Ladybug, a vibrant slot where expanding Wilds, playful multipliers and the lucky ladybug herself lead the way to exciting 1500x wins.

Set on a 5×3 grid with 20 paylines, Clover Ladybug transforms the simple joy of nature into a lively slot experience. The reels are filled with clovers, golden bells and other lucky icons, all brought to life with bright, colorful graphics and a joyful soundtrack that celebrates every win.

At the heart of the gameplay lies the Wild expansion feature. Wild symbols can appear on any reel and will randomly expand in cross or diagonal patterns when they land. When multiple Wilds overlap, they stack into multiplier Wilds, creating thrilling combinations and boosting win potential across the board.

The Clover Ladybug feature adds another layer of surprise and charm. Acting as a collector, the Ladybug gathers clovers from the reels and can randomly return them back onto the board, triggering expansions and increasing rewards in unpredictable ways.

With its dynamic Wild mechanics, uplifting animations and smooth pacing, Clover Ladybug delivers approachable, high-energy gameplay that feels both classic and fresh.

Sean Liu, Director of Product Management at TaDa Gaming, said: “Clover Ladybug embodies everything players love about our approach to design—simple mechanics, vivid energy, and a sense of joyful unpredictability. Every spin feels alive with movement and potential.”
