Leading iGaming content provider Yggdrasil recently announced that it had collaborated with Bang Bang Games to develop and launch a new title featuring classic gameplay and a retro theme. The name of the new pokie is Jokrz Wild ULTRANUDGE, and its debut follows soon after the successful release of Water Blox Gigablox.
This new title was made possible by the company’s YG Masters program, which has been running for 3 years now and has produced a flurry of entertaining, high-quality pokies. The programme empowers independent game developers and operators with cutting-edge development and distribution resources, like its GATI technology, enabling them to produce, promote, and rapidly distribute premium content.
Classic Feel
Jokrz Wild ULTRANUDGE sports a 5×4 reel layout with 40 paylines, high volatility gameplay, and an impressive winning potential of 25 000x your stake.
The paytable reveals a series of classic game symbols, including diamonds, various fruits, BARS, and of course, the lucky 7. When the Jokrz Wild symbol forms part of a winning combo, the ULTRANUDGE feature will activate, nudging all the symbols in view down by a single position. This action will repeat until no more wins are possible.
If you land three diamond symbols and a ULTRANUDGE symbol on the same spin, you will activate the Jokrz Free Spins mode. While this feature is running, all wins will trigger the ULTRANUDGE, and an increasing multiplier that does not reset between spins boosts your wins.
The Jokrz Gamble Wheel allows you to double the value of your multipliers and increase the bonus round’s potential to 23 000x your stake.
Retro Respect
Yggdrasil’s head of product and programs, Stuart McCarthy shared that he feels the ULTRANUDGE game mechanic is a valuable addition to the gaming giant’s existing catalogue. He described the new pokie as “an exciting retro hit” that is sure to stand out and attract an enthusiastic player base.
The managing director of Bang Bang Games, Frank McPolin, added that the company’s partnership with Yggdrasil gives it the ability to evolve its portfolio dynamically. He described the new release as the ideal combination of “innovation and immersion” that pays homage to classic games.
