Push Gaming turns up the volume in DJ Fox
B2B gaming supplier 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.
Landing a VIP symbol on this reel will trigger the Push-Up mechanic, activating the next row and awarding a respin of the enhanced 2×3 grid. This gameboard can be further increased in size by landing additional VIP symbols which also go on to award a multiplier from an incrementally increasing ladder.
Mirroring the classic trail held feature from land-based fruit machines, randomly during any spin, the meter lock mechanic can be activated, holding the size of the reels unlocked so far, increasing win potential.
Providing personalisation to the experience, players can decide to unlock some or all reels as opposed to utilising Push-Up. This opens the entire gameboard and allows more symbols to be landed with the risk and reward choices changing the player’s bet size.
DJ Fox has been developed with innovative mechanical ingenuity at its heart and follows other notable hits from Push Gaming such as Fish ‘n’ Nudge, Goat Getter and Razor Returns.
Craig Turner, Senior Game Producer at Push Gaming, said: “DJ Fox further diversifies our portfolio of revolutionary content, offering fresh features and gameplay for players to enjoy. The Push Up mechanic provides an increasing elevation of excitement throughout play and the meter lock feature keeps this high-intensity action present for longer.
“With players able to win exactly what they see and offering numerous ways to personalise the experience, we are excited to hear the reception this music-inspired release receives from players”

Casino Guru enriches its portfolio with a dedicated sweepstakes casino database and updated safety index
Casino Guru, the global authority on online casino transparency and player safety, is expanding its portfolio with the introduction of a dedicated sweepstakes casino overview tailored to the rapidly evolving U.S. market.
Following months of in-depth research and development, the company has unveiled a new initiative focused on social sweepstakes casinos — a unique and increasingly popular segment of the online gaming space. As part of this expansion, Casino Guru has adapted its trusted Safety Index to reflect the specific characteristics of sweepstakes casino models.
“We’ve been hearing about sweepstakes casinos for quite some time, from social media buzz to community discussions and expert panels,” said Jozef Krucay, Branch Operations Lead at Casino Guru. “It became clear this wasn’t just a passing trend, but a notable shift in how people engage with online entertainment.”
Unlike traditional online casinos, sweepstakes casinos use virtual currencies such as Gold Coins, Sweeps Cash, or Vegas Gems. Players can enjoy games for free or use purchasable coins to enhance their experience. With some luck, they may receive a special sweepstakes currency, which can be redeemed for real-world prizes — presenting both exciting opportunities and important considerations for player protection.
Casino Guru’s newly launched content includes:
- Listings for 11 published sweepstakes casinos, with over 60 more identified and currently in development
- An adapted Safety Index that reflects the distinct risks and rules of sweepstakes platforms
- Educational materials and player resources, including complaint-handling tools
- Planned detailed reviews to provide deeper insights into each platform
“Our goal is to help players navigate this growing space with the same clarity and confidence we’ve brought to traditional online casinos,” Jozef added. “As always, our focus remains on transparency, safety, and informed decision-making.”
This new direction positions Casino Guru at the forefront of player advocacy in emerging casino formats — with a clear path toward future expansion in the broader world of social and sweepstakes gaming.
