Relax Gaming Expands in Italy with Octavian Lab Aggregate Deal
Relax Gaming has expanded its presence in Italy with a deal linking it to Octavian Lab.
Operating as a software house and service provider for online casinos and gambling sites, Octavian Lab bases itself out of Rome.
It has a team of specialised technicians leading its creative process, and the company is committed to developing inviting products and protocols, while also offering integrated solutions in a variety of iGaming markets.
Through the deal, Octavian Lab’s Italian partners will gain access to a variety of online titles from Relax Gaming. One of the main benefactors of this partnership is Eurobet, which provides both a casino and sportsbook for avid players.
That casino, as well as various others, will now have the ability to enjoy exciting slots from Relax Gaming. Titles like Wild Chapo 2, Marching Legions and the Money Train series of games will doubtless prove inviting for Italian players.
The Director of Italy at Relax Gaming, Gianluca Crimaldi, said that it is imperative for the company to continue working alongside the industry’s top aggregators. This, he said, will ensure that Relax can continue its “hugely successful trajectory in key markets”, including Italy’s.
“We are delighted to partner with the talented team at Octavian Lab”, he continued, before noting that the deal will help Relax’s games to reach players in Italy via the top operators.
Meanwhile, the CEO for Octavian Lab, Emanuele Nocentelli, said that the company is proud of the partnership with Relax Gaming.
“It’s fantastic to be distributing their portfolio via our Gaming and Aggregation platforms…”, he noted. Nocentelli also said that Octavian is “confident” that the games from Relax will be a hit with Italian players.
Relax Gaming has over 4,000 online casino games in its portfolio at current. This includes high-quality slot releases and a good selection of other content coming from top third-party studios.
These come from various partnership programs set up by Relax. The company was also awarded GGA’s Product Launch of the Year in 2023 for its Dream Drop Jackpots.
Popular Sloth Returns to Slot Game With New Launch Epic Dreams
All the latest games from Relax will also be appearing in the top casino lobbies across Italy, thanks to this deal. Fortunately, the developer is consistent with its new game releases, and just released its latest slot entitled Epic Dreams.
Combining its efforts with CasinoDaddy once more, the software provider brings back a popular sloth to this game – Chip. In it, he embarks on another escapade, chasing his dreams while decked out in his pyjamas.
It comes as the second collaboration between the two companies, with the first coming in 2023 when Relax Gaming released Sloth Tumble. In the new release, the companies have upped the ante, improving on the features found in that game.
For example, players accessing Epic Dreams can climb up the ladder, which has 50 levels to it. This presents the chance to win up to 5,000x your stake, which occurs by matching coins and symbols on the 6x7 grid.
The game also features several memorable perks, such as the bonus pick, build bonus and dig bonus, presenting a thrilling and entertaining experience for anyone playing.
Special Features Aplenty in Epic Dreams
If all the stone block symbols on the grid are destroyed at the end of a round, the Bonus Pick will automatically activate. On some of the spins, the bottom row will also contain Super Bonus stone blocks.
If you manage to break these blocks, you will activate the Super Bonus Pick instead. This gives you the chance to pick between super versions of the bonus perks.
Selecting the Dig Bonus provides five free spins to you, with every third stone block row destroyed revealing a level row. This also adds an extra free spin to your total.
At the start of each of these spins, any stone block rows from the previous spin are kept. New rows are added, meaning that four are present for every free spin played.
Opting for the Build Bonus instead will provide three rounds to you. Each round has a drop of three symbols, and you win by filling a row with any symbol. Each individual symbol in the row pays as a 3 OAK WinW
When you achieve a win, the round counter will reset to three. Symbols then drop onto random columns to the bottom-most position.
You’ll also see the multiplier ladder next to the game grid. The ladder there starts at a multiplier of 1x, and it increases by 1 every time a row fills up. The payout of any paying symbols on a row is then multiplied by the current multiplier on the ladder.
Other Epic Dreams Details
The Epic Dreams slot offers players the chance to win in 117,649 ways. It also has a betting range between $0.10 and $200 per spin, while a 96.10% RTP rate is in effect. Players should also note that it is a high volatility release.
Anyone who doesn’t want to wait for the special bonus features to hit naturally can use the Bonus Buy feature. The Bonus Pick or Super Bonus Pick can be activated this way, but you’ll need to pay a price of 50x or 250x your wager for these, respectively.
The tool may be unavailable in some countries too, due to regulator restrictions.
Speaking of the slot’s release, CPO of Relax Gaming, Shelley Hannah, said: “We are thrilled to continue our partnership with CasinoDaddy and release Epic Dreams which sees Chip take on his most fun-filled adventure to-date, dispelling myths and proving that sloths are anything but chilled!”.
