About Fortune Reels

Studio in a Box is designed to provide another option. Yggdrasil handles the technology, infrastructure and support, leaving its partners to concentrate on the brand, creative ideas and commercial direction of their games.

The result, according to Curwen, is “democratising game creation”.

“The priority is to prove the model properly; make sure the games perform and demonstrate that it works commercially.”

Seasonal releases are an important part of the studio’s content strategy. 1spin4win regularly builds games inspired by international celebrations, among them Christmas, New Year, St. Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Halloween, and Oktoberfest.

For operators, that predictability is the point. The approach provides ready-made content for holiday campaigns and year-round themed promotions.

Welcome to Octoberfest isn’t a standalone idea. It’s the newest addition to a defined sub-series, joining Beersburg Fest Hold and Win and Lucky Fest Hold and Win in the studio’s line of Oktoberfest-inspired slots.

Wiesbaden’s higher slot machine tax will stay in force after the Hessian Higher Administrative Court in Kassel upheld the city’s move to raise the rate from 5% to 7.5% from 1 January 2024. 

According to the court’s statement, the judges rejected challenges from gaming hall operators and said the city’s public decision was legally sound. 

The ruling preserved a revenue measure the city says was designed to bring in up to €1 million according to the court’s own summary.
