Stakelogic Introduces Bonus Runner to the Dutch Market
Stakelogic is keeping the bonuses coming in the latest classic slot to be launched specifically for operators targeting the fast-growing Dutch market.
Bonus Runner is a traditional fruit machine game with a difference. Players can try their chance on the developer’s hot new 44 win-line classic slot that, as the name suggests, comes packed with bonuses including Wilds, Free Spins and a Mystery Jackpot.
In the base game, players may feel a strong sense of nostalgia as the traditional symbols land. This includes oranges, pears, strawberries, grapes and melons, as well as bells and 7s. Symbols pay from left to right, and players need to keep their eyes peeled for special Bonus symbols and Star symbols.
Bonus symbols can land on all reels and trigger Free Spins. Three bonus symbols award 10 Free Games, four Bonus symbols 15 Free Games, five Bonus symbols 20 Free Games and six Bonus symbols 25 Free Games. Fruity or what?
During Free Spins, Wilds can land and when they do they stick to the reels and Nudge one position down from the next spin. If on the last Free Spin there are Wilds still in view, Respins are awarded until all Wilds have finished Nudging.
Star symbols display on both fruit or bell symbols and a star together on the same symbol. A combination of any three fruit/bell and star symbols on a line awards a Star prize. These symbols can also complete a winning combination with regular fruit/bell symbols when the fruits/bells match.
Mixed star and fruit/bell combinations award the value of three fruit/bell symbols for truly big win potential.
If that wasn’t enough bonus action, players can buy the free spin bonus for 100x their bet. There is also a Mystery Jackpot which is seeded with a 0.5% contribution from every bet placed with a minimum jackpot payout of €500.
The pot is guaranteed to payout when it hits its maximum value of €5,000 and high stakes increase the chance of the player winning.
The chance of the jackpot triggering increases once the pot hits €2,500 and this happens in four marked stages until the max value is achieved and when it is then guaranteed to drop on the next play.
Olga Bajela, CCO at Stakelogic, said: “Bonus Runner takes a traditional slot machine game and elevates the action with a series of exciting bonuses that take the big win potential to the next level. Classic slots are dominating the Dutch market and that is why we continue to roll out new games developed specifically to meet player preferences. The market is growing fast, so operators need a steady supply of new content that exceeds player expectations and that is exactly what Stakelogic provides.”

Veikkaus’ active preparation towards the new gambling system, which will launch in 2027, continues.
As part of the new strategy, Veikkaus held change negotiations in the Betting and Online Casino operations in the autumn. The change negotiation process has now been completed. Following the change negotiations, 14 employment relationships ended and 19 Veikkaus employees underwent significant changes in their employment relationships.
“We had to make decisions that were painful from a human perspective, but they are necessary for the future of the company. I would like to thank those who will no longer be with us for their hard work,” said Business Director Jarkko Nordlund.
According to Nordlund, Veikkaus is now creating a new organizational structure that will prepare the company for the coming years.
“Digitalization is also strongly driving our industry. International competition and the pace of development are really fierce. Veikkaus has decades of fine traditions and a lot of good expertise as a company. Alongside these, we now need the kind of professionalism that will enable us to serve our customers even better and more individually.”
The company is recruiting dozens of new digital channel and betting professionals over the coming year.
“We need more expertise for Veikkaus that will make us even stronger and more competitive in the new market situation. We are also looking beyond Finland’s borders. According to current estimates, more than 30 new positions will open by next summer. We want to be strong, growing and profitable in the future,” Nordlund said.
The Parliament intends to have the new Gambling Act passed by the end of 2025. When the law comes into force, it will open up the opportunity for other gambling companies, in addition to Veikkaus, to apply for, for example, sports betting and online casino licenses in the Finnish market. According to the current estimate, other gambling companies could also start operating with a license in Finland during 2027.
Lottery games, cardboard tickets and physical slot machines will remain exclusive to Veikkaus in the future.
