Game developer Spribe has taken to LinkedIn to call out PopOk Gaming’s distribution of a crash game similar to its game Aviator, claiming it infringes intellectual property rights.

The post states, “Spribe is the sole owner of the intellectual property rights in the Aviator game, which are protected in many countries where we operate. Those rights include a number of trademark registrations for the game’s logo. In addition to that, Spribe’s game is also tested and certified in more than 30 jurisdictions.” 

Spribe Warns Operators About Unauthorized Aviator Copies

It accuses PopOK Gaming of being an unauthorized third party that reached out to Spribe’s clients and attempted to sell them a game called Aviator with a similar concept and design. These companies claim that it is the ‘authentic Aviator’ game. 

Spribe adds, “The primary purpose of this letter is to let you know that these games are not authorized by us and infringe upon Spribe’s intellectual property rights. They mislead players by falsely associating their game with our brand.” 

The Polish-headquartered company has emphasized that it is taking matters very seriously and may pursue legal action. It has urged operators to “investigate whether your platform offers any unauthorized and infringing versions of Aviator” and to subsequently remove any such games without delay. 

Last week, Spribe expanded its partnership with the UFC and added WWE. The authentic version of the Aviator game includes “Aviator | UFC Official Partners.” 

UFC bouts will feature the Aviator logo prominently on the Octagon at every event globally. In addition, the new partnership will see the UFC run Aviator-specific social media campaigns and host ‘premium hospitality experiences.’ Spribe’s partnership with WWE will showcase Aviator branding only at certain marquee events. 

Aviator is also the ‘Official Crash Game’ of Italian football behemoth AC Milan, while Spribe holds the title ‘Official Crash Game Partner.’ 

The company is no stranger to legal disputes. Georgian land-based casino operator Aviator was awarded $330 million in damages after a Georgian court found copyright and trademark infringement by Spribe. Spribe’s trademarks for its crash game were also thus invalidated. 

The casino operator has filed an invalidation action against the trademark with the European Intellectual Property Office, seeking to “challenge Spribe trademarks worldwide.” 

Flutter’s Georgian online casino Adjarabet was also ordered to cease offering the Aviator slot game.

The ongoing struggles faced by online gaming studios seem to ramp up with each passing week. As a constant jockeying for position within legacy jurisdictions rages on, a charge for market share in newly, or soon-to-be, regulated regions continues to be witnessed.

Add into the mix a continued evolution of player preferences, in addition to these being profoundly dissimilar from country to country, and the necessity to possess a varied and all-encompassing catalogue could be a key factor in determining success and disappearing into obscurity.

These issues formed the basis of a wide-ranging discussion with PopOK Gaming on the showfloor of the vast SBC Summit in Portugal’s coastal capital city of Lisbon. 

However, before delving into the real nitty gritty, Head of Partnership Management, Tsovinar Elchyan, began by assessing the studio’s current standing within the igaming community.

At PopOK Gaming we are focused on bringing fresh, exciting content to the gaming industry,” she says. “We offer a wide variety of games, including slots, crash games, live roulette, and instant games.  

“We have a series of games in our roadmap that are being designed especially for Brazil”

“Looking back at 2024, we released several hit slots such as Royal Flash, Pirate Fortune, and Mega Diamonds. Last year, we also introduced quick cash out games, such as Ninja Fruit Cubes and Red Hot Line. In addition, mine and dice games are to be added to the list this year. The big highlight of this year, though, is our new series of games.”

Despite covering a large breadth of the online casino ecosystem’s verticals, PopOK Gaming is setting its sights on further expansion, led by a number of key titles.

Citing Diamond Quest, Royal Flash, Lost Treasure and many more, that are readily available across key locations, it’s entry into fresh geographies that are causing heightened internal optimism.

“We are particularly focusing on expanding in Latin America,” Elchyan continues. “We have a series of games in our roadmap that are being designed especially for Brazil. 

“We are also working to certify more games in regulated markets, and to continue listening to feedback from our players and partners. The goal is to keep meeting the needs of players and stay successful in the market.”

Adding: “We are going to adapt our games based on the needs of players and the partners’ requests.”

“In Europe we already have our presence, but we now have wider targets around the globe”

A wave of optimism has spread across the industry as the year progressed as the country’s regime heads towards its intended launch on 1 January 2025.

Most recently it was revealed that President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva intends to host a meeting of senior ministers to address outstanding concerns regarding the federal framework to regulate fixed-odds betting and online gambling in Brazil.

Optimism for the continent certainly doesn’t stop there though, with Peru and Argentina also cited as future targets for the supplier.

Despite Latin America being the general target when looking at the future of PopOK Gaming, Elchyan also reserved a moment of time to address the current standing within a European market that serves as foundation for the group.

“We are already certified in most of the regions in Europe,” she comments. “In addition to the numerous countries already entered, we can add Latvia, Greece, Romania, Denmark and many more. In Europe we already have our presence, but we now have wider targets around the globe.”

However, alongside the adoption of such an all-embracing strategic outlook comes a fresh set of potential difficulties when looking to enact a multi-faceted expansion plan.

“Ultimately, if you want to stay successful in the market, you need to be flexible”

User desires are in a constant state of flux. With numerous elements, such as overall game design, maths, mechanics, bonuses, features, et cetera, forming critical elements of an online casino title, what challenges do altering player preferences pose?

“Different players and different player segments have different requirements,” Elchyan explains. “Some may like fruit themed games and some may like a particular mechanic, while others may have a preference for certain features. Plus, a lot of features within certain games may contain different ways of getting rewards.

“Ultimately, if you want to stay successful in the market, you need to be flexible, and your catalogue needs to comprise a number of different games to appeal to different player segments. 

“This is what we prioritise internally at PopOK Gaming. We are ultimately trying to meet and exceed the needs of a range of different players based on the expertise of our team.”

With all of this in mind, the conversation quickly headed towards a natural conclusion. The curtain will soon fall on the current year and all attention will be directed towards 2025, with PopOK Gaming plotting a varied approach to help surpass internal ambitions.

“In 2025 we will continue expanding our crash games range by delivering a number of new features, in addition to building on the success of our popular slot games,” she concludes.

“We are also focused on getting certified in a greater number of regulated markets, as we believe our catalogue can appeal to a number of player segments across a range of jurisdictions.

“In addition, we are going to introduce new promotional tools and reward bonuses, which we believe will have strong appeal to players. 

“Plus, we are excited to introduce a new vertical next year that we believe will be bringing something completely fresh to the market.”

PopOK Gaming has joined forces with SYNOT Interactive to enhance the visibility of its proprietary slot content via the latter’s aggregation service. 

Lauding a ‘shared vision for innovation’, the two companies have come together to offer PopOK Gaming’s collection of in-house content to SYNOT’s network of affiliated online casino operators. 

SYNOT Interactive and its roster of partners will benefit from the deal by gaining access to a plethora of PopOK Gaming slot content, including titles such as Milky Farm, Wukong and Los Toros

The deal will also include PopOK Gaming’s range of instant games, having branched out into several game formats in recent months. Earlier this month, PopOK Gaming extended its instant games catalogue with its latest launch – Mines

In this title, players are presented with a 5×5 grid while five bet levels are available. At each bet level, a different number of explosive bombs will be hidden behind the tiles on the 5×5 grid. 

Players can choose to have either three, five, seven, 10 or 15 bombs hidden behind the tiles. Once having selected their desired level, players then pick from the 25 tiles on the grid, hoping to reveal diamonds instead of the explosive bombs. 

If the player reveals a diamond with their first pick, a multiplier ladder will progress beside the grid. Players can then continue to pick tiles on the grid, with consecutive diamond picks progressing the multiplier ladder further. 

The studio has also recently focused on crash games with its recent releases, having launched CrashoSaurus and Lucky Spin since the start of the year.

Another week has flown by so sit back and relax as we guide you through a selection of recent slots to hit the CasinoBeats inbox, including Thunderkick’s gelatinous jamboree, Booming Games’ reptilious romp, Atomic Slot Lab’s mining mayhem and more. 

Jiggly Cash – Thunderkick

Thunderkick has served up a plate of wobbly features in its latest slot release, which uses a 6×5 reel set with scatter-pays and a maximum win of up to x10,000 the player’s bet. The game has high volatility with an RTP of 96.46 per cent.

Gary Law, Product Owner at Thunderkick, commented: “We’re excited to be launching Jiggly Cash, another fantastic addition to our portfolio with an immersive theme and plenty of winning potential.

“Players are going to have a blast with the thrill of mystery symbols and the avalanche feature, plus the chance to take home x10,000 their bet in the bonus round. We can’t wait to see what they think.”

This game uses scatter-pays, meaning that wins are formed when eight or more identical symbols appear in one turn, no matter the combination. 

Avalanche wins are also on show, causing winning symbols to disappear after providing their payout to make way for new symbols to drop in and increase the win potential. 

Mystery question mark symbols can also appear, revealing one low value symbol once all wins on the board have been awarded. When this occurs, all versions of that chosen symbol across the board will transform into a random high value symbol.

If two or more multipliers contribute to wins on the same avalanching win, these multipliers will be added together and applied to the total win at the end of the avalanche. 

During the free spins feature, landing three scatters on the same spin will retrigger five extra spins and all multipliers that are activated will be stored in a ‘jigglybank’ meter above the reels, added together and applied to the total win at the end of the bonus game mode. 

King Cobra – Booming Games

Booming Games has players watching their step as they travel through a jungle filled with deadly cobras in the studio’s latest slot release. Using a 5×5 reel slot with 15-paylines and a maximum win of up to x10,000 the player’s stake, the game has an RTP of 95.6 per cent.

Moritz Blume, Director of Product at Booming Games, stated: “King Cobra majestically slides through our visually stunning 5×5 slot with mystery wild multipliers, scatters and poison spins to give the player a grand experience, with a max win potential of x10,000 bet. 

“Our games are becoming incredibly popular and now that we have over 150 titles (and growing by the week), we have games suited to everyone. Games such as King Cobra, show the variety of themes and mechanics Booming Games offer which make great additions for operators in a range of markets around the world.”

In the poison spins game mode, triggered by landing three bonus scatters, players are taken to an empty reel set and are awarded three spins. 

Each reel contains a multiplier value above it, starting at x1 to allow for a minimum win of x5 in this bonus game mode. 

Players will spin the reels to land cobra symbols onto the reels, with four different types of cobra symbols available to drop in and enhance the multiplier on each reel. 

At the end of these poison spins, all multipliers above the reels will be added together and applied to the player’s wager. 

Green cobra symbols can drop in to add values of either +1, +2, +5, +10 or +20 to the multipliers above the reels that they drop into. 

Epic green cobras are also available, adding the same values as the standard green cobras but to all five reels instead of just one. 

Additionally, golden cobras can land to multiply the reel multiplier by either x2, x3, x5, x10 or x20, while epic golden cobras will multiply all reels by one of these multiplier values when they drop in.

Mystery Mines – Atomic Slot Lab

Head down the mines on the hunt for golden wins in Atomic Slot Lab’s latest pickaxe-swinging slot title, which uses a 5×3 reel board with 25-paylines. This game has medium volatility with an RTP of 95.44 per cent.

Minecart bonus symbols can appear in single, double and triple-stacks. Landing three or more minecarts on the same spin will award an instant payout, ranging from x1 for three minecarts and x2,000 for nine or more mine carts. 

Additionally, mystery mine text scatters can drop into play, triggering the free spins feature if three or more appear at once. 

Dynamite sticks can also appear as mystery symbols, revealing either single, double or triple-stacks of minecarts, golden nugget wilds or mystery mine scatters at the end of each spin.

When triggering the free spins feature, players are awarded five free spins with a x1 multiplier to be applied to each spin. 

However, before starting the game mode, players are presented with a spinning wheel that is free to spin and awards either extra spins or higher multipliers. 

Once having spun the wheel, the multiplier or free spins that are won will be replaced on the wheel by a ‘start mode’ segment that will take players to the bonus game mode if landed on. 

Landing three scatters on the same free spin will retrigger the free spins with the same amount of spins awarded when the feature began, alongside the same multiplier.

When dynamite sticks reveal golden nugget wilds on every dynamite symbol in play, a respin feature will be activated to award two free respins while the wilds stay sticky on the reels. 

Scatters are not present during these respins, however any additional dynamite sticks are guaranteed to reveal golden nugget wilds.

Yo-Ho Gold! – 3 Oaks Gaming

It’s a pirate life for players in 3 Oaks Gaming’s recent swash-buckling slot title, which sees players hit the high seas on a 5×3 reel set-up with 25-paylines and high volatility. 

Sebastian Damian, Managing Director of 3 Oaks Gaming, said: “Yo-Ho Gold! promises to be another fantastic addition to our Hold and Win series of titles.

“Yet again, we are showcasing the popular mechanic in a unique way, using subtle methods to allow players to explore other ways to win big on Hold and Win games. Pirate-themed slots are always well-received by players and we are convinced this game will be one of our biggest hits.” 

With the hold and win game mode, players are taken to an empty reel set where only the triggering golden coins are present on the board. 

Three spins are awarded for players to land as many golden coins on the reels as possible and each symbol that drops into play will reset the number of spins to three. 

Golden coins can appear with values ranging from x0.5 to x10 the player’s stake. 

Other symbols are available to drop in during this feature, including payer pirates that reveal a random prize value and apply it to every coin on the reels, collector shipmate symbols which present a prize value before collecting all prizes from other coins on the screen and multiplier monkeys that double two to eight values across the board.

Extender parrot symbols can also appear, revealing a prize value before increasing the reel set by one row. 

Additionally, permanent payer cannons can drop in, revealing a random prize and applying it to each coin symbol on the end of every single spin. 

Lastly, permanent collectors are also available, revealing a random prize value before collecting every other coin’s value and adding it to its own.

Ronin – PopOK Gaming

Enter the realm of the samurai in PopOK Gaming’s latest East Asian-themed slot title, which offers 20-paylines on a 5×3 reel-set with a maximum win of up to x5,000 the player’s bet. Using an RTP of 96.02 per cent, this game is highly volatile. 

Purple wild samurai helmet symbols can drop into play on reels two, three, four and five, substituting for all symbols other than the bonus cat scatter. 

Additionally, bonus cat symbols are available on reels one, three and five, triggering 10 free spins if three land on the same spin. 

Each wild that drops into play during the free spins game mode will be collected into a pot. If 10 wilds are collected then on the final free spin, the 10 wilds will be placed across the screen.

If these wilds are placed on the same cell, then a multiplier will represent how many wild symbols have been placed in said cell. These multipliers will be applied to any wins that the wilds contribute to. 

After all of the free spins have been played, players will be presented with the super bonus game mode. This sees players pick from a spinning wheel with hidden prizes, revealing a multiplier to enhance their free spins payout, with up to x9 available.

Moreover, the jackpot mode can be randomly activated at the end of any spin, with players tasked with selecting several boxes with hidden jackpot diamonds behind them. 

Once players have selected four identical jackpot diamonds, they will be awarded their respective prizes.

Slot and instant game provider PopOK Gaming has secured its latest content partnership, integrating its igaming content into Virtual Soft’s aggregation platform to extend its global outreach. 

Through this deal, PopOK Gaming’s full roster of games will become available to a host of operators affiliated with Virtual Soft, as the latter provides a ‘state-of-the-art’ platform that integrates casino, virtual, pre-recorded and live casino content from igaming providers worldwide. 

Luiza Melikyan, Business Development Executive at PopOK Gaming, stated: “We have already demonstrated our commitment to building strong, win-win partnerships that benefit our partners, us, and, most importantly, game lovers.

As March gets well underway, sit back and relax as we guide you through a selection of slot releases that have flooded the CasinoBeats inbox in the past week, including Play’n GO’s mythological madness, PopOK Gaming’s prohibition parlay, Habanero’s St Patrick’s Day party and much more. 

Pandora’s Box of Evil – Play’n GO

Zeus’s one command to not open the box has been broken in Play’n GO’s latest monster-filled slot release, which uses a 5×4 reel set-up with 20-paylines and a maximum win of up to x6,000 the player’s bet.

George Olekszy, Head of Game Retention at Play’n GO, said: “Pandora’s Box of Evil is a fun Greek mythology slot that players who chose their games by theme or feature set are sure to enjoy it immensely.

“Unlocking the main feature of this game by landing Pandora’s Box on the reels triggers a chain reaction of mystery symbols that really heightens the entertainment.”

Mystery wilds substitute for all symbols other than the scatters and spirit of hope symbols, awarding payouts between x2 and x8 depending on the number of wilds that appear in a winning combination. 

These wilds can also appear with multipliers to be applied to any win that they contribute to. These multiplier values can be x2, x3, x4 or x5 and two multiplier wins contributing to the same win will add their multiplier values together to further enhance the win. 

The spirit of hope symbols triggers one respin where any mystery symbols, scatters or wilds that were present on the reels stay locked into place for the subsequent respin. 

During the free spins feature, landing one, two or three scatters on the same spin will retrigger two, five or eight free spins respectively. 

Black Booze – PopOK Gaming

Set at a time of prohibition in the 1920s, PopOK Gaming’s latest crime-fueled slot title revolves around the black market booze trade with a 5×3 reel set-up that has 243 ways to win and four progressive jackpot prizes on offer. This game has medium volatility with an RTP of 96.17 per cent. 

Bonus whiskey crates can drop into play on reels one, three and five, triggering nine free spins if three land on the board at once. 

Silver police badges can also appear, displaying monetary values that can be won if the badges land in a winning combination. Gold badges can appear in the free spins game mode with higher values. 

Additionally, wild text symbols can appear on reels two, three, four and five, substituting for all symbols other than the badges and scatters. 

In the free spins feature, gold badge values can be collected above the reels when they drop in without a winning combination to see those values paid out. 

Silver badges that land on the reels can form combinations with the collected gold values above the reels, awarding their accumulated values to the player.

Landing three scatters on the same spin will retrigger the feature with an additional three spins. 

The jackpot game mode can be randomly triggered at the end of any spin, with players tasked with selecting a number of boxes with hidden jackpot diamonds behind them. Once players have selected four identical jackpot diamonds, they will be awarded their respective prizes. 

Furthermore, a randomly triggered super spin feature can be activated, causing an abundance of silver badges to be placed on the reels in a bid to form a winning payline. 

Rainbow Mania – Habanero

Catering to an upcoming St Patrick’s Day holiday, Habanero’s latest Irish-themed slot release takes place on the Emerald Isle as a 5×3 reel slot with 17-paylines and bonus features including expanded wilds and free spins. 

Toni Karapetrov, Head of Corporate Communications at Habanero, commented: “We’re always happy to revisit Ireland and give fans another mesmeric title that revolves around the fascinating world of rainbows, leprechauns and hidden treasures.

“The new release promises a captivating experience, with our world-class mathematics driving the title’s engaging audio-visuals. We can’t wait for players to enjoy the latest release and use it to enhance their St. Patrick’s Day celebrations.”

Wild horseshoes and leprechauns are available, substituting for all symbols other than the bonus scatter and cash pots. 

Cash pot symbols can land on reels one and five. Landing one cash pot symbol on a spin will cause the middle reel to turn into an expanded leprechaun wild, while landing two on one spin will turn reels two, three and four into expanded wilds. 

During this cash pot feature, wins can be formed from both sides of the reels, doubling the number of paylines. The cash pot reels will also respin to reveal a paytable symbol in the place of the pot.

Scatter text symbols can also appear, triggering 13, 33 or 133 free spins if three, four or five land on the same spin respectively. 

Winterberries 2 – Yggdrasil 

Yggdrasil’s latest freezing-cold slot title blends an icy-fruit theme on a 5×3 reel board with 20-paylines and a maximum win of up to x10,000 the player’s stake. This game has high volatility with an RTP of 96 per cent. 

Stuart McCarthy, Head of Product & Programs at Yggdrasil, stated: “We are excited to launch this sequel to our original title launched in 2016, which still has fans around the globe. Winterberries 2 sees the game elevated, combining respins, multipliers and free spins in a fantastic frozen creation.

“We want to bring new concepts to players, and having every winning spin result in a Respin is a great way to continue to boost player engagement and deliver potentially huge wins for them in this fruity new hit.”

Throughout the game, winning symbols will become frozen in ice cubes. When frozen, these symbols will stay sticky on the reels as a respin occurs around them. This respin is repeated if identical symbols drop in, also becoming frozen on the reels.

Several multipliers sit above each reel, ranging from x1 to x32. Filling entire reels with identical frozen symbols will highlight these multipliers, making them active to be applied to the subsequent win formed by said symbols. 

During the free spins game mode, these multiplier values are doubled, ranging from x2 to x64, while special blue honey bee scatters can also appear, increasing all multipliers by a value of 15 to increase the bonus game mode’s win potential.  

Arctic Moon Lock & ReSpin – Live 5

Take a trip to the Arctic Tundra with Live 5’s 5×3 reel slot with 10-paylines and a maximum win of over x10,000 the player’s stake. This slot has high volatility with an RTP range of 92 and 94 per cent.

Lloyd Butler, CEO at Live 5, stated: “Arctic Moon Lock & Respin takes players to a vast, frozen tundra where wild animals roam the reels. But these are beasts that can be tamed with the help of wilds, free spins and of course our trademarked Lock & Respin. 

“This feature, in particular, breaks the big-win ice and will have players on the edge of their seats as the moon symbols land and lock and the remaining reels continue to respin.”

Ice spins scatters are available on reels one, three and five, triggering five free spins if three land on the same spin. 

With the free spins feature, the middle three reels will merge to form colossal 3×3 symbols, increasing the win potential of the free spins game mode by acting as nine symbols at once.

Moon cash symbols can also drop into play, triggering the Lock & ReSpin game mode if six or more land at once. These symbols display cash values that can be won in the bonus game mode.

In the Lock & ReSpin feature, players are taken to an empty 5×7-size reel set where only the triggering moon symbols are present on the board. 

Players are given three spins to land as many moon symbols on the reels as possible, with every symbol that drops in resetting the number of spins to three.

At the end of this bonus game mode, the player will be awarded the accumulated value of all moon symbols on the reel set. 

Three jackpot moon symbols can also appear during this feature, awarding prizes of mini (x30), mega (x100) or major (x2,500).
