Winning combinations are removed after being collected and the remaining symbols drop down to possibly form new winning combinations, similar to the original slot.
Online fruit slots will never be the same again following the launch of Big Hits Blazinator from Lucksome, the boutique online slot developer.

The more consecutive winning spins, the higher it climbs.
Push Gaming takes to the decks, returning to its innovative Push-Up mechanic in the music-inspired release DJ Fox. Reimaging how wins are created, DJ Fox can be initially played across one row and three reels. Any disc symbols landed will have a numeric value attached to them and players will win what they see displayed on the gameboard by the symbols. This offers a unique and easy-to-understand gameplay experience.

IAGR President Ben Haden, who served on the judging panel, said this year’s winners demonstrate measurable progress and sustainable outcomes.

For leading a three-year, milestone-driven remediation of Crown Sydney following the Bergin Inquiry — eliminating junkets, strengthening financial-crime controls, enhancing harm-minimisation and reforming governance.
- ‘The NSW Independent Casino Commission is proud to be recognised for its dedication to restoring the expected standards at Crown Sydney. This has included three years of intense remediation which has completely transformed the casino’s governance, culture, safety and compliance functions.
- ‘The NICC has proven that it is possible to enact long lasting change and in doing so has set a new standard for Australian casino operations.’ – Murray Smith, Acting Chief Commissioner, NSW Independent Casino Commission

It’s crucial that young people understand that gambling is designed so the player always loses in the long run.
