Yggdrasil and Acerun Deliver Epic Egyptian Gameplay in Book HOTFIRE

8th August 2022 – Yggdrasil and AceRun have combined to deliver the hottest Egyptian-themed slot of the Summer, Book HOTFIRE.

This high volatility slot, which is AceRun’s debut title as part of the YG Masters program, pays homage to classic ‘book’ style slots, tasking players with collecting sacred books to trigger a lucrative bonus round that can see them win up to 6,440x their stake.

Whenever three or more book symbols land anywhere on the game reels, players will automatically trigger 10 free spins. Before the bonus can begin a wheel of fortune is spun and whichever symbol it lands on will become a special symbol for the duration of the feature.

Throughout the free spins bonus, the special symbol selected via the wheel will expand to cover all three positions of the reel if enough symbols are in place to trigger a win.

Should three or more book symbols land anywhere on the game reels during the free spins then players will automatically retrigger the bonus feature, leading to an unlimited number of free spins and even higher cash prizes.

Book HOTFIRE is the first title produced by AceRun, which is the latest boutique studio to join the YG Masters initiative, following its launch earlier this year. The Egyptian-themed slot is powered by GATI, Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardized development toolkit to consistently produce cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.

Stuart McCarthy, Head of Product & Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “Egyptian-themed slots have been a mainstay within iGaming for many years now, and players know and love them. We’re truly thrilled to add another top-class book-style game to our ever-growing YG Masters Portfolio via AceRun.

“It’s very exciting when partner studios launch their first game through our program, and we look forward to working closely with them going forward to create fantastic gaming experiences.”

Jeroen van der Heijden, Head of Development at AceRun, said: “There have been some incredibly impressive slots released through the YG Masters program in the past and we’re proud to release Book HOTFIRE alongside them, we’ve designed and built a sleek and modern game that delivers timeless gameplay we believe players will enjoy.”
