Kalamba Games presents new slot 9 Blazing Cashpots Megaways

Ahead of Kalamba Games’ upcoming release 9 Blazing Cashpots Megaways™, Slots-777 spoke to Chief Commercial Officer, Andrew Crosby about the influences behind the slot, what other titles they have on the horizon and the developments the provider will be making throughout 2023.

Can you tell us more about your upcoming release 9 Blazing Cashpots Megaways™?

9 Blazing Cashpots Megaways™ is a further development of our hit game 9 Blazing Cashpots. In this version, we have seamlessly blended two radically different player-favourite features which have created a distinctly unique and entertaining title. The slot harnesses both the ever-changing reel sizes synonymous with the Megaways™ mechanic, fills the reels with traditional symbols and big win awarding Cashpot prizes.

At least eight or more of these are needed to unlock a prize with additional Cashpot symbols improving the player’s position on an incrementally increasing prize ladder. These can culminate in a max win of 50,000x for landing 25 of these symbols on the game board! With 46,656 winning ways available, this huge win can be just a spin away.

What are some of the influences behind the design of 9 Blazing Cashpots Megaways™?

The six-reeled title of course draws inspiration from its predecessor and fans of this fiery hit will be familiar with symbols in this Megaways™ reimagining. At Kalamba Games, we have an affinity with the land-based casino aesthetics popularised in places like Las Vegas. These elements have again worked themselves into this version of the game with fruit symbols such as cherries, grapes and watermelons making up the lowest-paying symbols.

This influence is extended to the highest-paying symbols, with lucky shamrocks, bells and numerous different coloured sevens awarding the biggest wins. These are joined by a wild which acts as a substitute for all these symbols except the scatter and Cashpots. Its shape and design draw a clear parallel to the famed “Welcome to Las Vegas” sign with these classic themes underpinning a lot of the influences behind the title.  

Could you tell us more about the free spins round found within 9 Blazing Cashpots Megaways™?

The free spins round amplifies the exciting features seen in the base game and delivers players some unrivalled win potential. At least three scatters are needed to unlock the bonus and award nine free spins, however, landing extra scatter symbols can boost this and award up to 18 spins in total! These spins can be further upgraded via the collection of three additional scatters in the bonus round. These award three extra respins and can be retriggered multiple times giving additional opportunities to land more Cashpot prizes.

Buying the bonus can provide the key to lucrative rewards in 9 Blazing Cashpot Megaways™. We have four different options for players to buy that suit a variety of budgets and two of these further enhance the value of the Cashpot prizes on offer. These double the max win available and also increase all prizes available via the pay ladder. If you enjoy volatility when playing, then the bonus buy feature is for you.

9 Blazing Cashpots Megaways™ sees you return to an existing title, will you be integrating other hit games into your roadmap moving forward?

Within our vast portfolio of high-quality slots, we have some truly amazing titles that have become staples of players’ play sessions around the world. Enhancing some of these fan-favourite releases and integrating new mechanics allows us to build upon the brand recognition of previously released hits and further explore mechanics found in other slots.

Hit ‘n’ Roll has proven to be a popular addition to many of our releases and will see further iterations in the future. This adds a bonus wheel mechanic which can award free spins, instant cash prizes or Cashpots allowing for even more engagement and entertainment to be offered by pre-existing titles. This feature can be found in Joker Max Xmas Edition Hit ‘n’ Roll, Joker Lanterns Hit ‘n’ Roll and soon to be released Joker Leprechauns Hit ‘n’ Roll just in time for St Patrick’s day. We also have some new amazing slots on the horizon such as Megaways™ Duel of the Dead which I look forward to sharing further details of in the future.

Other than game releases, what else will you be working on throughout the year?

Players will be excited to learn more about the Mini-max feature we have been developing, which allows for new betting options on existing titles, providing higher and lower bets to be made. This will also allow us to also enter new markets and broaden our player base. We also have Cash Drops on the horizon which can award jackpot prizes for simply playing a Kalamba title and of course our range of Premium games; these developments alongside our robust portfolio of high-quality titles mean that 2023 is going to be a huge year at Kalamba Games.

While we wait for all the new Kalamba slots to be released in 2023, we can play with their big successes of the past. Try all Kalamba free slots on their page, no registration needed!
