As the holiday season draws near, many are winding down and preparing for some well-deserved rest, but the crazy world of Canadian gambling never sleeps and neither do we when it’s time to bring you a summary of the most interesting happenings of the week.
New Games
Red Tiger’s Wonderland Whimsy
Top iGaming provider Red Tiger has turned to the pages of a famous literary tale for the inspiration of its newest online slot title. The new game, titled In the Rabbit Hole, is loosely based on the events of Alice in Wonderland, with reels crowded by gnarled roses and dice and symbols like books, teacups, top hats, and watches all rendered in a startling hand-drawn style.
Get the bonus round going by landing 3 bonus symbols and you will be awarded 7 free spins with extra wild symbols. If 3 Win Spins symbols appear on the final free spin, you will get 7 Wild Spins where each spin is a guaranteed win and any wild symbols that appear will stay locked in place for the duration of the feature.
Gionata La Torre, the Chief Executive Officer Europe at Evolution, said,
“In the Rabbit Hole brings a real Spin-ception to the players if they are lucky enough to traverse the three layers of Free Spins. This one-of-a-kind idea, created by our fantastic team, perfectly symbolizes the disarrayed yet exciting world of the game. Players will love the whimsical, darkish ambience and outstanding features of this thrilling online slot.”
Stakelogic Spins in Jest
Stakelogic wants to take you back to the days of classic online slots when simple gameplay and big prizes dominated the iGaming sphere. 3 Jokers is the provider’s new game and features a 5x3 reel, 10 payline format with a trio of colourful female jokers as high-value symbols, alongside wrapped gifts, casino chips, and dice on the lower end of the value spectrum.
When the special Wild in the Box sign appears, all joker symbols in view will transform into Joker Wilds, which expand to the left while standing in for any rand that can also substitute for any regular symbols.
Olga Bajela, the CCO at Stakelogic said,
“3 Jokers takes the foundation of a classic slot and modernizes it with striking visuals and compelling gameplay that lets players really determine their appetite for risk v reward. Slots do not have to be packed full of explosive bonuses to get players on the edge of their seats with each spin, and 3 Jokers is proof of this. It delivers thrills and excitement from the base game, with a range of RTPs available to operators.”
Winners
Lotto Winner Shows Herself the Door
Manitoba resident, Amy Strang, didn’t realise she had one more obstacle to overcome after winning a large Lotto 6/49 prize, a simple door.
Strang was in a daze after discovering her win from the November 5 draw, a cool $1 million cash jackpot.
“I went to the mall and scanned it at the kiosk, and I didn’t believe it,” she laughed, recalling her discovery to the Western Canada Lottery Corporation (WCLC)
“I said ‘It’s telling me I’ve won a lot of money, I don’t believe,” she added.
She shared how her father was immediately certain that she was not joking by the way she entered the house. In her distracted state, she walked straight into a door on her way in.
“I was white as a ghost, and my boyfriend was shaking. looked at my parents and said, ‘you’re never going to believe what just happened to me,’” she explained.
Strang’s plans for the money include purchasing a new vehicle.
Lucky Winner’s Near Miss
Yolanda Gayasco from Chilliwack almost became a cautionary tale about making sure you check everything twice.
Gayasco almost lost out on a $1 million prize when she did not thoroughly check her ticket from the November 19 Lotto 6/49 draw.
“I checked my ticket online, but I didn’t check the little number at the bottom. I didn’t think I won, but then I took the ticket to the Save-On-Foods on Yale Road to check.”
This last-minute thought turned out to be the right move because once she completed the verification, she was an instant millionaire.
Gayasco immediately informed her husband of the win, rushing to pick him up and share the good news.
