24 July 2014


LONDON -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- Yggdrasil Gaming Limited has developed a fantasy world-themed game entitled Magic Mushrooms where players are able to win big on an unchronological draw slot – a first for a high-performance casino product.

The majority of standard online slot games have paylines on one side and reels that stop in sequence. Magic Mushrooms, however uses intuitive gameplay with 40 paylines, 20 from the left and 20 from the right of the game, spread across a diamond-shaped 3-4-5-4-3 reel position and with the five reels drawn in an unchronological order of 1-5-2-4-3.

Players are also treated to a number of distinctive in-game ambient sounds and music created by specialist sounds artists, while the characters themselves were created in-house and first modeled as clay figures before making it to the big screen.

Fredrik Elmqvist, chief executive of Yggdrasil Gaming, said: “There are plenty of slots out there based on aliens and zombies but this is the first that uses spreading and multiplying wild Magic Mushrooms.

“This game is unique in every way, from the reel structure and the characters we’ve created to the sounds and music we’ve encapsulated. Players will love it!”

Yggdrasil’s portfolio contains a variety of popular casino games including new-release Fruitoids, fast high-roller video slot Winterberries, its already established success Jokerizer slot that is also available on mobile, as well as Lotto7, a unique daily lottery draw and progressive game where players will play for a €2.5 million progressive prize.

The company, which has offices in Malta, Poland and most recently a sales office in Gibraltar, has signed a number of agreements with a host of household names this year including Mr Green, LeoVegas, Videoslots.com, Vera&John, Cherry Gaming, CO-Gaming (ComeOn!) and Unibet – its largest deal to date.
