About Wild Roll
The regulator of gambling in New Zealand announced on Friday that the funds returned by operators will be directed towards community organisations.
Under Section 106 of New Zealand’s Gambling Act 2003, a class 4 licence holder, also known as a “corporate society” by the regulator, “must apply or distribute the net proceeds from class 4 gambling only to or for an authorised purpose specified in the corporate society’s licence”.
The DIA worked directly with class 4 gambling operators (commonly known as pokies trusts), and discovered ‘widespread issues’ such as cases where money that should have been available for community grants was instead spent on society expenses, such as the purchase of additional gaming machines.
What is Wild Roll?
Play’n GO has released Triple Beasts of Fortune, a five-reel, 1,024-payways slot. Its central hook is a bonus structure that can layer three separate Free Spins features into a single round.
The interest here sits less in the frontier-and-bison theme, a heavily worked category, than in how the studio has engineered its bonus play. The game is set on a supernatural Grand Canyon frontier where three crystal-linked Free Spins features can arrive alone, in pairs or all three together.
That modular approach is the reason the release stands out in a crowded segment. Rather than funneling players into one static bonus, Play’n GO gives Triple Beasts of Fortune multiple entry points that can stack. This changes how volatility and payout potential accumulate across a session.
