Some of the best slot models of Euro Games Technology are spinning again their reels for the players of Casino Malta by Olympic Casino which recently reopened to welcome the guests in its luxurious and stylish surroundings. The buzz of heated gaming is day by day returning in the halls of the biggest casino in Malta. The establishment is of the respected hotel and entertainment local enterprise Eden Leisure Group and the Estonian Olympic Entertainment Group AS that, apart from its business in the country, is recognized as a leader in the Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) and as an important investor also in Slovakia and Italy.

The first EGT slot products that entered Casino Malta by Olympic Casino were the P-42V St Curved and P-27/27 St from Premier series. Soon after they achieved excellent results, the operator upgraded its offerings to the players also with the model G 32-32 VIP that is from the successive General line. The cabinet is among the latest EGT bestsellers globally, competes successfully in the VIP slot segment and is preferred for its two high definition 32-inch displays and included adjustable multimedia chair with built-in stereo speakers and game main controls. The vibrant Collection mixes of EGT with their diverse storylines and features further raise the satisfaction of the players in the casino, especially the last installed Gold Collection of 48 titles all in HD quality.

According Slawomir Switalski, country manager at Casino Malta by Olympic Casino, there are several more main advantages of the EGT machines – the good quality/price ratio, the gained popularity in the country and the high performance which is pride for every developer. The fruit-themed titles in the Collection multigame palette offer more lines and combinations compared to many competitors and grant many free spins which nicely surprise the players. Their constantly growing interest in EGT games is expected to lead to more installed machines of the brand in the establishment.

“Our products are recognized in Malta for their reliability and appeal to the audience shared Gergana Chelebieva, regional manager of EGT for Ireland, Portugal, Italy and Malta. “We will continue to reveal their potential in the country, stressing mainly on the General slot line and completing more installations of the 5-level progressive Cai Shen Kingdom jackpot system that has already been presented in the casinos Portomaso and Dragonara. Soon the domestic players will also be able to try the 4-level mystery-progressive Jackpot Cards that we expect to be accepted well, as its performance is proven to be successful in many other markets.”

The product diversity and the continuous update of the portfolio are some of EGT’s main means to maintain its stable position in Malta. This strategy will keep being a priority for the local development of the company in 2020 as well.

Swintt – the award-winning software provider behind recent slot sensations Big Max Pot Hunter and Big Fish – has announced it has formed a new partnership with established Lithuanian betting brand, TOPsport, that will see the studio further raise its profile in the country.

With the new deal now in place, Swintt is already live with 36 Premium releases on the TOPsport platform, with these giving players access to a roster of classically-themed games that combine the design elements of traditional land-based slots with exciting mechanics and bonus features.

Established in 2002, TOPsport is Lithuania’s first and largest gambling operator, boasting a strong bricks-and-mortar presence that includes 50 casino slot saloons spread across 26 towns in addition to its online enterprise. Given the brand’s rich land-based heritage, the SwinttPremium range seems to be ideally suited for its customers, who will enjoy the slots’ familiar look and feel.

Among the Premium options now available at TOPsport.lt, players will be particularly keen to try the acclaimed Extra Win X, which adds an innovative Bonus Wheel to the iconic fruit machine format, and Max The Winner, which features a unique gathering mechanic that sees the titular cartoon squirrel appear on the reels during the bonus feature to collect acorns and award prizes.

With these just being two of the standout examples from the new collection of Swintt slots that are now available at TOPsport.lt, the brand will be able to further cement its reputation as the country’s leading operator while Swintt continues to reach more players in the Lithuanian market.

David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “With TOPsport being Lithuania’s oldest and most-trusted betting brand, we’re delighted to be able to introduce our Premium releases to players on the platform. With all of these games offering themes and features that are inspired by traditional land-based slot machines, we’re sure they’ll prove a popular addition to their line-up.”

Linas Dargenavičius, Chief Commercial Officer at TOPsport, said: “With a diverse library of over 3,000 slot titles, TOPsport offers the most extensive selection of online casino games in Lithuania. The addition of SwinttPremium titles further strengthens our portfolio, bringing in games that resonate with players familiar with classic land-based machines. Their engaging mechanics make them a valuable extension of the experience we aim to provide.”
