Swintt takes it to the max in new Maximator slot
Sought-after software provider’s latest Premium Game cranks up the action with stacked wilds and a Wheel of Fortune feature where the electrifying MAXI jackpot can be won
Having already wowed players with popular Premium releases Win Eagle and Reels on Fire in recent weeks, Swintt has been back in the lab this month working on their latest slot creation – a new three-reel, five-payline, jackpot-packing powerhouse by the name of Maximator.
Like a lot of the titles that have gone before it in the Swintt Premium collection, Maximator draws on many of the hallmarks of classic land-based slots to provide a familiar and intuitive user experience. Played out across a 3×3 reel matrix, the slot uses fruit-themed icons such as cherries, plums and lemons and combines them with casino-style sound effects to recreate that gaming hall atmosphere.
Where Maximator differs from the fruit machines of old, however, is in the game’s exciting range of bonuses and features. For starters, the slot uses special wild symbols which can substitute for any regular base game icon to help complete winning paylines. Depicted as Swintt’s now-iconic wild fox, these important icons also appear stacked on the reels, which can be key to triggering full table wins.
The reason that this is so significant is Maximator’s other key feature – the Wheel of Fortune bonus round. In order to trigger this rewarding mini-game, players will need to successfully activate a full table win by filling all nine reel spaces with one base game icon. When they do this, the Wheel of Fortune will appear on the screen and they’ll be prompted to click or swipe to win an additional prize.
After spinning the wheel, the pointer will eventually stop on a segment containing a prize multiplier value of between 2x and 5x or – if players are especially lucky – the red MAXI space. Landing on the latter will activate the local MAXI jackpot, triggering the slot’s maximum payout of 800x players’ bet.
To help players access the Wheel of Fortune more regularly, Maximator also includes a second-chance respin feature. Activated whenever two out of the three reels are filled with one identical symbol or fox wilds, players will be granted a free respin to give them a second shot at triggering a full table win.
Finally, to round out the slot’s bonus features, Maximator also includes the popular Risk mini-game. Available after any winning base game spin, this optional extra enables players to double or quadruple the value of their current prize by correctly guessing the colour or suit of a hidden card respectively.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “With our Premium Games continuing to prove popular in markets where players are more familiar with land-based slots, we’ve bolstered our line-up again this month with another action-packed release where huge wins are just nine symbols away. “Boasting stacked wilds, second chance respins and an iconic Wheel of Fortune bonus round, our new Maximator slot lives up to its name by packing the maximum punch into a simple 3×3 reel matrix. Also giving players access to our local MAXI jackpot, the game features a top prize of 800x players’ stake and should prove another popular addition at our partner casinos when it arrives this week.”

KSA Issues New Duty of Care Guidance for Gaming Arcades and Casinos
Reading Time: 2 minutes
The Netherlands Gambling Authority (KSA) has issued new guidance for gaming arcades and casinos to improve the implementation of their duty of care. The KSA previously visited gaming arcades across the country. These visits revealed that while most arcades are paying attention to their duty of care, implementation could be improved in some areas. The guidance the KSA is now sharing with license holders contains practical tools and explanations, but no new rules.
Duty of care of arcades
With the implementation of the Gambling Act (Wet Koa), the duty of care for gaming arcades has been further expanded. This means they are obligated to prevent and mitigate gambling addiction as much as possible. Since then, gaming arcades have taken steps to comply with this requirement. However, in practice, the stated good intentions and the relevant policy are not always sufficiently aligned. The KSA has discussed this with various parties within the sector. Based on the input from these discussions, the new guidance has been developed.
Guidance
The guidance for arcades includes resources that providers can use to properly fulfill their duty of care and better inform their employees. The guide provides explanations and examples of what arcades must do and what the KSA expects of them. It also includes an overview of frequently asked questions. In addition to the guidance, a poster and an animation have been developed to raise awareness among arcade employees about the duty of care.
Along with the duty of care guidance, arcades also received a Guideline for Identity and Cruks Verification. The KSA regularly receives questions from the sector about the Cruks exclusion register. This guideline addresses the operation of Cruks and the most common questions and problems.
KSA chairman Michel Groothuizen said: “Certain key factors of the duty of care are easier to monitor for online providers than in brick-and-mortar casinos. In our conversations with arcade owners, we’ve noticed that they want to do more with the duty of care, but sometimes still struggle with its proper implementation. With this new guidance, supplemented with informational materials for employees, we’re giving them new tools to do so. In this way, we’re working together to ensure that players are optimally protected even at brick-and-mortar providers.”
