About Stackem

This numbered structure works as a soft branding device. It signals to players that a title belongs to a familiar mechanical or presentational family, which can shorten the time it takes a returning player to feel oriented in a new game.

The approach also suits Spinomenal’s release rhythm. The provider ships titles at a steady clip across multiple themes at once, and a repeatable template makes that schedule far more sustainable over time. A useful shortcut, in other words.

Rather than building each slot from scratch, the studio appears to lean on recognizable frameworks it can dress in new themes. 3 Aztec Spells reads as another application of that model, not a departure from it.

Kesitilwe says the AiA also wants to develop a clearer picture of problem gambling across Africa and use that evidence to support engagement with governments and policymakers.

“We also, from the point of view of the Alliance, intend to do Africa-wide studies around prevalence of problem gambling in different markets, obviously working with regulators and associations,” he says.

Alongside this, the AiA wants to use the lessons from the inaugural week to broaden participation and establish the campaign as a permanent fixture.

What is Stackem?

“A jackpot engine is a rare product in that you can brand that engine and it will sit across all of your content,” Wilson says. “As an operator, you might have 50 different game suppliers. On every single game that you’re serving, you can show a branded jackpot.”

That is the gap Splash Tech solves: many operators already have strong game libraries, and some have proprietary content, but they lack a flexible jackpot layer that can sit across the full offering without requiring them to build and operate their own engine.

That supplier-agnostic design matters because operators do not organise their businesses around the interests of one studio. They assemble portfolios from multiple providers and need tools capable of working across the resulting patchwork. Splash Tech’s engine can also extend beyond slots to points of sale including sportsbook bet slips, lottery and bingo.
