Hellcatraz

What is Hellcatraz?

Lottomatica’s agreement to absorb Cirsa, announced on 2 September, brings four Moroccan casinos into one of Europe’s largest listed gambling groups. Morocco accounts for about 2% of Cirsa’s revenue and about 4% of its earnings.

Neither company has announced plans to seek an online betting licence in North Africa. The deal nevertheless highlights the divide in Morocco’s gambling market.

Land-based gambling can attract international investment. Cirsa expanded its Marrakech presence last November. Private online betting has no equivalent licensing route.

Once the deal is completed, 80% of its EBITDA is expected to come from those two markets.

According to the deal investor deck, the combined group expects online betting and gaming to be its largest vertical, as it accounted for 48% of the group’s combined pro forma adjusted EBITDA in H1.

Distributed gaming followed at 27%, then casinos at 25%.

Each feature in Triple Beasts of Fortune has a clear identity

Play’n GO frames each feature as having a defined role within that system. “Each feature in Triple Beasts of Fortune has a clear identity,” said Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO. “Upgrade changes the Bison, Expand opens the grid and Multiplier brings x2 and x3 Multiplier Wilds into play. Super Charged pairs them; Mega Stampede lets all three strike together.”

That comment underlines the studio’s intent. Distinct, legible mechanics that combine into escalating outcomes, a design philosophy Play’n GO has increasingly leaned on to differentiate titles within saturated themes.
