Sought-after slot provider invites players to saddle up for a new Spanish-themed adventure that features Free Spins and sticky wilds

Having already treated players to a festive flurry of releases this winter, popular software provider Swintt is back in action again this month with another new title set in slightly warmer climes of southern Spain – El Andaluz.

The latest slot to come galloping out of the Swintt studio, El Andaluz is a five-reel, 10-payline game with a cowboy theme. Right from the off, players will be immersed in the culture of the region as they spin to the sound of flamenco guitars and set their sights on a maximum jackpot of 1,200x their stake.

Unique symbols to feature in the game include roses, hand fans and castanets, but the real money-maker is the handsome vaquero, who acts as a substitute wild. Filling in for any regular base game icon, this special character can help increase the slot’s payout frequency by completing winning lines.

Also of great importance is the black stallion scatter symbol, which is used to trigger El Andaluz’s main bonus feature. Activated whenever three or more scatters appear anywhere in view during a single round, players will be treated to 12 Free Spins which take place on an even more lucrative set of reels.

When the feature is active, the importance of the vaquero symbol becomes even more significant, as it will now act as a sticky wild and lock in place for the remainder of the Free Spins. Given the frequency with which these symbols hit, it is therefore possible for players to have multiple sections of the game’s 5×3 reel matrix wild for the duration of the feature, making it far easier to land bigger prizes.

As an additional incentive, any regular payline wins that are collected during the base game can also be increased via the slot’s gamble feature. Should players decide to risk their winnings using this optional extra, they’ll have the chance to double or quadruple their prize by guessing the colour or suit of a hidden playing card; and subsequent gambles can be made until the maximum payout is hit.

With its sunny Spanish setting, simple gameplay and rewarding Free Spins feature, El Andaluz looks set to provide the perfect winter warmer for players this Christmas – and the team at Swintt is confident that it will prove a hugely popular alternative to the studio’s range of holiday-themed slots.

David Mann, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “Having recently re-released Golden Reindeer and debuted our new Santa vs Aliens slot, we thought it was important to offer players a change of scene this Christmas in El Andaluz.
“Boasting big wins and popular features like Free Spins and sticky wilds, we’re sure players will welcome the opportunity to banish their winter blues by galloping through the hills of southern Spain in the latest slot adventure to come from our hit studio.”

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

OddsMatrix, EveryMatrix’s tier-1 turnkey sportsbook platform and odds feed service, has revealed significant year-on-year growth across its football product during the 2024/25 season, headlined by a rise in player prop betting.

Inclusive of all domestic global club football, major continental championships and international competitions, OddsMatrix delivered an average 2024/25 margin of 11.8%, a sharp increase on 2023/24 performance.

Overall turnover grew 28% season-on-season with volume of football bets placed on the platform surging 34% from 241.5 million in 2023/24 to 324.1 million in 2024/25 as the supplier continued to expand its client network and benefit from existing customer growth.

Demonstrating that behaviours are changing within the football betting community, the steepest season-on-season growth came in player prop betting. Dominated by the Shots on Target and Player to be Booked markets, player prop turnover grew 72% compared to 2023/24 with revenues from the betting type increasing 84% among OddsMatrix’s growing, global client base.

Fuelled by OddsMatrix’s recent integration partnership with Kero Sports and further development of its own in-house prop pricing models, player prop betting growth was further pronounced during the Champions League with shots betting accelerating 158% season-on-season while wagering on assists increased 149% during the 2024/25 continental championship.

The OddsMatrix numbers also point to sustained momentum for the well-established Bet Builder product. Firmly established as a sportsbook essential, the product continues to grow, alongside the award-winning sportsbook revealing a 127% season-on-season rise in Bet Builder turnover – driven by deeper in-house pricing integration.

Last week OddsMatrix was crowned sports betting supplier and sportsbook platform supplier of the year at the EGR B2B Awards 2025, alongside EveryMatrix picking up three major honours including top prize Full service platform of the year.

Tor Skeie, CEO, OddsMatrix, said: “It’s been another memorable club football season, with standout moments from PSG, Liverpool and Napoli. At OddsMatrix, we’re proud to have achieved exceptional year-on-year growth across our core football product metrics. 

“In the last 12 months, not only have we rolled out a new proprietary horse racing solution, we’ve worked hard to enhance our football product with broader event coverage, increased in-house pricing, extended market uptime, enriched content, faster settlement, and smarter risk management – demonstrating our continued commitment to strengthening the core of our sportsbook offering.

Spinomenal presents new slot: Queen of Oasis
Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its latest title, Queen of Oasis.

Set against the rolling ancient Egyptian dunes and lush, palm-lined oases, Queen of Oasis immerses players in an elegant world of riches. Camels, vultures, antelopes, snakes, and the powerful Queen herself bring this 5-reel slot to life. The reels sit within two ornate marble pillars where the bejewelled Queen represents the Wild symbol.

During the main game, the Queen counts for any symbol except Free Spins and Bonus symbols. Finding five Wild symbols on a winning line pays x2,000 the bet.

Queen of Oasis is a crowning triumph thanks to the two superb features, a Bonus game and Free Spins. Three or more Scattered Free Spins symbols trigger the special feature. Before Free Spins commence, players can either accept the current number awarded or throw caution to the wind to earn more – up to 50 free spins. Once activated, one to three stacked Wilds are placed on random reels during each spin and boosting potential returns.

The bonus game is initiated when three or more Scattered Bonus Symbols land on the reels. Players kick off with three spins and the goal is finding as many urns as possible to increase the multiplier metre which pays out once the spins are finished. Each sector of the multiplier metre is filled by five winning symbols and there is an opportunity to bag an extra spin by finding the +1 symbol.

Synced Reels and Expanding Reels add another exciting element to the Bonus Game.

Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Queen of Oasis is a beautiful blend of visual elegance and bold gameplay. Every feature has been created to captivate, reward, and raise the bar for what an Egyptian-themed slot can deliver.”
