SlotMatrix unleashes the wild riches of 20 Armadillos
SlotMatrix, the world’s largest casino content aggregator, proudly announces the launch of 20 Armadillos, a thrilling new slot adventure set deep in a jungle where fortunes roll wild.
In this untamed land, the Armadillos and their fierce animal allies guard treasures waiting to be uncovered. Players spin the reels as claws of luck and paws of fortune guide them towards potential big wins, daring them to crack the shell of jungle secrets and claim the rewards within.
20 Armadillos is a 5-reel, 4-row slot with 20 lines, medium-high volatility and RTP options of 94.16% and 96.96%. With a maximum multiplier of 30,000x and a responsive, mobile-first design, the game blends rich visuals with high win potential.
The game’s feature set is as wild as its setting. Landing Wild Symbols triggers Wild Respins, extending the action and paving the way to the Bonus Game, where Wilds transform into Armadillo Credits with random cash values.
Prizepot mechanics give players the chance to collect Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega wins, while filling the board unlocks the ultimate Grand Prizepot.
Pick Enhancement Accumulation allows players to build up powerful modifiers over time, unlocking even more rewards when Free Spins begin.
In the Pre-Free Spins Picks phase, collected enhancements such as global multipliers, payout boosts, extra credits, and sticky animals create a truly personalised bonus round.
The Free Spins bonus doubles down on excitement with Both Ways Pay and Animals Double Feature, combining sticky animals, extra spins, and double-win mechanics for massive payouts.
20 Armadillos is exclusively available through SlotMatrix. As with all SlotMatrix titles, the game is enhanced by EveryMatrix’s proprietary gamification features, including free spins and leaderboards, and can be integrated with EngageSuite, the all-in-one player loyalty solution.
Bjorn Sjoberg, COO, SlotMatrix, said: “With 20 Armadillos, we’re showcasing how layered gameplay, vibrant storytelling, and innovative mechanics can captivate players.
“From the jungle-themed prizepots to double-paying animal features, 20 Armadillos delivers an experience to remember for players worldwide.”

TaDa Gaming Releases Crazy 777 2
TaDa Gaming has released Crazy 777 2, the bold sequel to its popular classic slot. With a max win of 10,000x and the addition of a dynamic special reel, this new release takes traditional single-line gameplay to a whole new level.
Staying true to its roots, Crazy 777 2 keeps the simplicity of a three-reel, one-payline slot but amplifies the excitement with modern mechanics. The standout feature is the Special Reel that sits to the right of the main reels, awarding either multipliers or triggering the Respin Feature for added win potential.
When the Respin Feature activates, the main reels lock while the Special Reel spins independently. Each multiplier symbol that lands increases the total multiplier—available in 1X, 2X, 3X, 5X and 10X—and keeps stacking until the reel lands on a blank. The final multiplier is then applied to the locked winning combination, unlocking explosive payout possibilities.
With a classic paytable highlighted by Lucky 7s and Bars, Crazy 777 2 merges nostalgia with innovation. Combined with multipliers up to 10x per spin and the potential to climb all the way to 10,000x, the game ensures every spin is packed with anticipation.
Sean Liu, Director of Product Management at TaDa Gaming, said: “Crazy 777 2 is a tribute to classic slots, but with the twist of our signature bonus mechanics. The addition of the Special Reel transforms a traditional one-line slot into a high-energy experience, appealing to both retro fans and modern players who love multipliers and bonus action.”
