Yggdrasil and Boomerang Games visit ancient Greece in Year of Olympia WildEnergy

| By iGB Freelance
With the 2024 Olympics just around the corner ReelPlay partner Boomerang Games and Yggdrasil have come together once more to showcase their latest feature-filled hit, Year of Olympia WildEnergy.

This 720-ways Greek-themed slot invites players to step into the heart of the amphitheatre where they must spin to win up to 3,265x by way of Yggdrasil’s WildEnergy Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM), Hold & Respins and free spins.

The WildEnergy GEM sees any wild symbols persist on subsequent spins as they make their way down the reel one row at a time until reaching the bottom. Should three WildEnergy symbols land at once the Hold & Respin feature is triggered.

The Hold & Respin feature awards players three spins which reset every time a special symbol lands. Wild symbols collect all coin prizes in view on every spin, upgrader symbols increase the value of all coins, and collector symbols collect all prizes shown.

Landing three scatter symbols will trigger the free spins feature. During this a wild symbol is added to the top of reel three. The feature only comes to an end when there are no more wild symbols anywhere on the reels. The luckiest players will find it possible to trigger a feature within a feature.

Year of Olympia WildEnergy is the latest game developed by Boomerang Games, which thanks to its agreement with ReelPlay, can provide standout content as part of the YGG Masters programme. Year of Olympia WildEnergy follows in the footsteps of Boomerang’s recently released hit Goblin’s Bargain MultiMax.

The title is powered by GATI, with Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to consistently produce cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.

Zoe Bird, senior product & programme manager at Yggdrasil, said: “We are delighted to turn back time and thrill players with this wonderful Greek epic. Year of Olympia WildEnergy is filled to the brim with unique features and mechanics including our hugely popular WildEnergy GEM that promises to keep players entertained!”

David Johnson, CEO at ReelPlay, said: “Year of Olympia WildEnergy is packed full of Boomerang smarts as well as Yggdrasil’s signature WildEnergy GEM. We are confident players and operators alike will reap the rewards from this Olympic-themed slot based on the grandest contest of them all.”
