Swintt unleashes the power of the Parthenon in Olympus Wilds
Sought-after software provider’s new Greek mythology-inspired slot sees players summon Floating Wilds that can send their winnings soaring on any given spin
Get ready to step into the Athenian Acropolis and take your place alongside the mighty gods and goddesses of Ancient Greece in Olympus Wilds – the brand-new SwinttSelect slot where unique Floating Wilds can set players payouts soaring for sky-high wins.
Set to a backdrop of the majestic Parthenon, Olympus Wilds is a five-reel, 20-payline title that features the likenesses of Zeus, Ares, Artemis, Athena and Poseidon as its higher-value symbols. Packed with exhilarating bonuses, the game boasts a maximum jackpot of 8,000x the selected bet and includes a Buy Feature button that gives players easy access to its main Free Spins round.
In both the Free Spins and the base game, the key to unlocking Olympus Wilds’ most divine payouts comes courtesy of a unique Floating Wilds mechanic.
Triggered whenever two or more wild symbols appear during a single spin, these icons will ascend from the reels before coming down again in random positions to create additional paylines as a free re spin is triggered.
Should any additional wilds appear during this re spin, this powerful feature will be repeated for even greater potential prizes – and if this happens to occur during the Free Spins, all winnings will also benefit from a progressive multiplier that can boost players’ payouts by a maximum of 10x!
As an added gift from the gods, this progressive multiplier is also present during the game’s second feature, which is a Hold & Win bonus similar to those found in other Swintt titles. Activated whenever five or more coin symbols stop in view, players will initially be granted three re spins to collect further prizes, with the counter resetting whenever a new coin symbol appears.
Not only that, but for each subsequent coin collected, the progressive multiplier will increase by one, with this being applied to the value of all prizes once the reels have been completely filled or no new coins appear and the player is returned to the base game with their collected winnings.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “This month, Swintt is inviting players to explore the intriguing world of Greek mythology and claim divine riches worthy of the gods themselves in Olympus Wilds. A medium-high volatility slot with a maximum jackpot of 8,000x, Olympus Wilds introduces a new Floating Wilds mechanic that can turn any spin into a big winner – particularly during Free Spins, where potentially monumental multipliers are also up for grabs!”

Bacta commissioned research shows huge support for seaside arcades led by Gen Z
The findings of independent research conducted by Censuswide among a sample of 2,000 UK Nationally representative respondents aged 16+ shows that Generation Z has fallen in love with the seaside arcades so popular with their grandparents.
The research reveals that 8 in 10 respondents (81 percent) view seaside arcades as being part of British culture and it is young Brits that are banging the drum for arcades, with 90 percent of 25–34-year-olds backing their importance.
Despite overwhelming public support from Britain’s younger generations, seaside arcades continue to face a perfect storm of challenges from rising energy and staffing costs, plus the threat of increased taxation as suggested by former Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
72 percent say Government should do more to protect them – with 86 percent of those aged 25-34-years calling for urgent action.
The research findings confirm the central role played by seaside arcades with 72 percent of adults saying they would visit an arcade on a trip to the seaside a figure that rises to 91 percent for 24-34-year-olds.
In terms of providing accessible entertainment 55 percent say that arcades offer great value for money, making them the UK’s most affordable family day out. As a result, 84 percent confirmed they have enjoyed arcades with multiple generations of their family.
The importance of contributions to local economies featured highly in the research paper with 7 in 10 stating that arcades play a key role in regenerating seaside towns, a figure that rises to 85 percent of 18-24-year-olds.
Reflecting on the research findings Joseph Cullis, President of UK trade association, Bacta said: “Britain’s seaside arcades are a vital element of our proud tourism industry, a modern cultural icon, and have been a fun family activity for more than a century.
“It’s brilliant but not surprising to see young people are embracing them with all the enthusiasm of their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents before them.
“At Bacta, we’re fighting to protect our seaside arcades from the threats of rising costs and from those who want to tax them out of existence. We hope that local councillors, MPs and the Treasury will heed the wants and needs of the British people and protect these vital institutions.”
Elliot Ball, who co-owns and runs Clacton Pier with his brother Billy, said other attractions would be at risk if arcades were taxed even more.
“I’m the fifth generation of my family – on both sides – involved in amusement arcades so this is a labour of love” he stated.
“But the threat from the government to raise gambling tax would put at risk a traditional family day out to the seaside. Trips here have been making memories for generations, and it’s great that younger people are finding the same safe, harmless fun on the pier that has been raising a smile and lighting up eyes for years and years.
“We’ve bounced back from the pandemic and the rise of staycations helps, but many of Britain’s most beloved seaside attractions will be put at high risk if gambling taxes rise.”
