Yggdrasil, an award-winning developer and publisher of online casino content, has announced the launch of Mayan Waterfalls, its latest slot and the very first title created by Thunderbolt Gaming as YG Masters partner studio.
YG Masters is an innovative invite-only program designed to empower independent game makers to produce top-notch content and help them distribute it via Yggdrasil’s vast network of operators. All partners get access to the regulation-ready GATI™ toolkit and can take advantage of the quickest, most secure, and most flexible way to get their games to various regulated markets.
Last month, the famous Swedish developer introduced the results of t work with Bulletproof and Bang Bang Games, launching Diamond Symphony DoubleMax™ and Jokrz Wild UltraNudge™ GigaBlox™. In July, players have an opportunity to get familiar with a new YG Masters studio and embark on the exciting journey through the jungle chock-full of free spins and bonus events.
Set in a colorful antique temple, the 5×6 grid has four progressive boxes located in the corners to accumulate landing orbs during the base game and boost the chances of triggering the free spins feature. The latter consists of two phases, giving players access to the Full Moon Wheel with additional free rounds bolstered by multipliers or stacked wilds.
Mark McGinley, Chief Gaming Officer at Yggdrasil, said:
“It’s fantastic to see Thunderbolt launch its debut title as a YG Masters partner and Mayan Waterfalls is a great game to introduce the studio to our operator partners and their players.
“The multi-level bonus features, in-game progression and unique graphics really ensure this game stands out, making it a fantastic addition to our popular YG Masters portfolio.”
Paul Malt, Head of Games at Thunderbolt Gaming, said:
“Developing Mayan Waterfalls together with Yggdrasil is a fantastic milestone for us and we couldn’t be happier with the result.
“We have worked hard to create this title and Yggdrasil has given us all the tools needed to make this a smash hit. Through their wide distribution network, we will quickly reach players in key regions and introduce them to the entertainment and excitement we have to offer.”
Mayan Waterfall is a low to medium volatility slot with a decent hit frequency of 25.68% and a pretty generous RTP of 96.3%. This casino slot comes with a broad range of stakes that starts at $0.10 and goes up to $50 while the maximum payout is capped at $43,280.
In contrast to the recently released Ragnawolves WildEnergy™, this immersive game does not contain a brand new reel mechanic but relies on old good pay line concept, letting players complete their winning combinations by landing between three and five matching symbols.
After several spins, a waterfall will cover the reels to turn random symbols into wilds and bring massive prizes. The game offers a Buy Bonus feature, allowing punters to purchase the first or second phase of free spins for a 40xbet or 80xbet respectively.
