Play’n GO Deliver a TESTAMENT to the Slot Industry!
Play’n GO continue their landmark year of releases with the announcement of their latest title to hit the market, Testament.
Testament is a 5-reel slot inspired by the music of Testament, one of the most influential thrash metal bands in music, more specifically their critically acclaimed 2012 album “Dark Roots of Earth.”
The gameplay is crafted to match the music perfectly, creating a very high volatile game with a huge 20,000x win potential. Featuring three different game modes based on the songs Cold Embrace, Dark Roots of Earth and Throne of Thorns. The game has an explosive free spins feature where the player unlocks sections of the reels to enter the Testament Spins, where all three game mode features combine to unleash the full potential of the game.
As well as pioneering the cascading gridslot format in the industry, Play’n GO are now becoming known as music slot specialists, with the successful release of music-based slots over the last two years including House of Doom, Demon and Sabaton.
The game also continues the slot supplier’s method of creating music slots alongside the artists the games are based on, rather than just using their materials and likenesses, giving the game a more authentic feel to fans of slots and the music itself.
When speaking about the game, CPO Martin Zettergren stressed the importance of authenticity in creating their music slots:
“Creating a slot based on a band or artist carries an extra weight to it. You have to create a fun, unique slot for players to enjoy, but also represent the band and their music to fans accurately.
This game is another “Testament” to our talent for creating entertaining slots, and our diligence in doing so.”
Testament is available to play online from today.

We were only a game away from clinching a playoff berth and we honestly think we are one of the teams to beat in this tournament.”

Plaza Hotel & Casino
Plaza Hotel & Casino to celebrate summer with Friday night fireworks
The Plaza Hotel & Casino will celebrate the start of every weekend this summer with a live fireworks show Friday nights at 9:15 p.m., beginning May 24 for Memorial Day weekend through Aug. 30 for Labor Day weekend.
Inspired by the fireworks shows at Disneyland, the Plaza’s Welcome to the Weekend Summer Friday Fireworks will light up the sky above downtown Las Vegas and be part of a festive summer block party atmosphere at the property’s Carousel Bar and rooftop pool deck.
“The Plaza is known for its great fireworks on New Year’s Eve and July 4th, but who says fireworks are only for those holidays?” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “This summer, we wanted to celebrate and give a gift to everyone downtown by sharing the excitement and fun of our fireworks shows with them every Friday night.”
“Las Vegas is the world’s destination because of all the spectacular attractions that are available here,” City of Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman said. “The Plaza is adding a new weekly fireworks extravaganza this summer, and everyone is invited to visit downtown Las Vegas and enjoy the show!”
Derek Stevens, CEO and Owner of Circa Resort & Casino said “The weekly fireworks show will amp up Fremont Street’s high-energy atmosphere to a new level. It’s a terrific addition for the entire neighborhood, providing another exciting reason for visitors to come downtown. Huge thanks to Jonathan and the Plaza team for bringing this idea to life. We’ll definitely be enjoying the show every week from Circa’s rooftop lounge, Legacy Club.”
The fireworks shot from the Plaza’s towers will be visible to the thousands of tourists and locals in downtown Las Vegas as well as for miles beyond. Plaza hotel guests will be able to enjoy the fireworks from an exclusive viewing party on its rooftop pool deck where the fireworks will be “ignited” by a special guest pushing a detonator button on an oversized TNT box.
To attract even more people to stay downtown, the Plaza introduced the only all-inclusive hotel room package starting at $125 per person per night. The package includes bottomless drinks, breakfast and dinner, a free bingo session, waived resort fees, and more. Rooms must be booked online by June 30 for a stay June 1 through July 1.
The Friday night rooftop pool party for hotel guests will feature the Frozen Firecracker, a special red, white, and blue cocktail made with strawberry daiquiri, pina colada, and blue lemonade spiked with Don Q Rum. At Carousel Bar the summer party vibe continues every Friday night with a DJ and the specialty cocktail Watermelon Agua Fresca made with Mi Campo tequila, Jägermeister, rose aperitivo, watermelon juice, chamoy, and aloe leaves as a garnish.
“Downtown Las Vegas is already a vibrant, unique, and exciting destination. Our Summer Friday Fireworks paired with our all-inclusive room package and great summertime block party atmosphere at Carousel Bar and the rooftop pool deck will be even more reasons to come downtown this summer,” added Jossel.
The Plaza’s fireworks will be dependent on weather conditions and are subject to change or cancellation.
