GAMOMAT expands its Gaming for the Climate initiative with the launch of Great Grizzly
GAMOMAT, one of the leading independent German software developers for slot games, is launching its brand-new title “Great Grizzly” as part of its Gaming for the Climate initiative. The initiative was first launched in 2021, and the fifth game to join the initiative will support Vital Ground in its mission to protect grizzly bear habitats across North America.
A share of the GAMOMAT-revenue generated from Great Grizzly will directly benefit Vital Ground, a nationally accredited land trust specialising in conserving and connecting key habitats for grizzly bears and other wildlife. Since launching in 1990, the trust has protected and enhanced over 1 million acres of critical habitat, working to prevent human-wildlife conflicts and ensure long-term biodiversity conservation.
Set in the expansive wilds of North America, Great Grizzly takes players on a stunning journey through a kingdom ruled by the majestic grizzly bear. The grizzly bear is the big star of this new release, joined by an array of beautiful animals roaming on the reels.
Free games can carry multipliers of up to 27 and will be activated if three, four, or five golden paw print symbols are shown on the reels. Three symbols enable eight free games, four enable 15 free games, and five enable 20 free games. During free games, the golden grizzly bear can leap onto the reels, transforming eagles, lynx, wolves, and deer into the powerful bear symbol to enhance the returns.
Great Grizzly is available to all Bragg operator partners through Bragg HUB. With this latest addition, GAMOMAT’s catalogue of games supporting climate protection now includes Book of Oasis (Healthy Seas), Monkey Mania (Borneo Orangutan Survival), Lava Lions (African Wildlife Foundation), and Alexandria Fire (WeForest).
Dietmar Hermjohannes – Founder of GAMOMAT said: “Gaming for the Climate is not only raising awareness but also taking action on environmental matters close to our hearts. Vital Ground has been doing crucial conservation work to protect North America’s grizzly bears. Together, we can protect the climate while creating better places for people and wildlife. All of this is achieved through a fantastic game that celebrates the breathtaking beauty of the North American wilderness. I couldn’t be prouder of my team.”
