Online gambling games developers Yggdrasil and BetSoft launch new slots this week with widely disparate themes, giving players a choice between medieval battles for power and lucky Irish leprechauns.
Yggdrasil’s Rainbow Ryan offering features a hopefully lucky leprechaun with a penchant for heavy rock music, an animated theme which underpins a six-reel game with two synched reels on every spin and the promise of more to build winning combinations on each consecutive spin.
Rainbow Ryan has a range of other features, including Scatters, Wilds, Multipliers and Free Spins making for an entertaining game in which players can achieve significant rewards of over half a million Euros.
Yggdrasil head of slots Jonas Strandman says that the most outstanding feature of the new game is the manner in which the soundscape harmonises with the animated visuals.
“Our miniature superstar Ryan reacts with rocking tunes to the reels, delivering players a sound experience that’s previously unheard of in slots,” he claims. “It’s a very catchy feature, and at the same time utilises technology that we are developing further for future games.”

Fire and Steel from BetSoft is a world away with a theme that delves into the popular fantasy medieval genre that has become so prominent thanks to television series like Game of Thrones.
The struggle between good and evil revolves around two noble houses seeking royal power following the assassination of a queen without naming an heir.
The 5-reel, 20 pay-line game features impressive graphics in a 3-4-5-4-3 diamond format and gameplay synched to the theme via features such as the Shieldmaiden’s War Cry, which triggers a horizontal Beam of Strength that transforms every icon it touches and turns it Wild.
On the other side of the struggle, the Swordsman War Cry initiates a vertical Beam of Magical Strength, with equally transformational powers.
Forcing the warring factions to come together to fight a common enemy is the invasion of Black Dragons, which can set loose Free Spins.
Fire and Steel comes on Betsoft’s HTML5 Shift platform, creating smoother, high definition animations across multiple platforms with drastically reduced file sizes.
