YG Masters Program

Bang Bang Games launched in 2020 by a team of industry enthusiasts who develop online slots which are innovative, highly engaging, and come with outstanding mechanics. Not dissimilar to Microgaming’s exclusive content partners, Yggdrasil’s YG Masters program recruits a plethora of upcoming content partners to develop, design, and distribute content utilising Yggdrasil’s technology to reach global markets.GATI technology is a key element in YG Master’s program, in a nutshell, GATI is a regulated, preconfigured toolkit, allowing developers access to technology to enable them to create, design, and distribute their titles across the globe.

Ancient Eclipse

Ancient Eclipse draws its inspiration from a Mayan Temple and is played across 5 reels with 50 paylines. Both Sun and Moon symbols play a key part in the game. When a Moon symbol lands it transforms into a Gold sun symbol and locks in place. If a Moon symbol lands on a Gold Sun symbol the Eclipse feature triggers.All sun symbols on the reels now turn wild and come with a 1x multiplier attached. The feature can also be retriggered.Three warrior scatter symbols appearing on the reels trigger the Sticky Sun’s free spins. All the Gold sun symbols remain sticky throughout the feature, even if the Eclipse feature triggers. Each moon symbol landing creates a new sun frame and an extra spin is awarded.Managing Director at Bang Bang Games, Frank McPolin said, “We are delighted to roll out our first game as a YG Masters partner and that with Ancient Eclipse’s thrilling theme, lucrative free spins mode, and an artfully crafted environment, they could not be happier and are looking forward to gaining access to Yggdrasil’s partner network reaching players from all around the globe.”
