It can land during free spins to award mid-bonus upgrades, layered on top of the ante bet and feature-buy options already familiar across the range.

Around 48% had no indicators of players’ behavioural signals or health. Co-author Viktoriia Grygorenko, CEO at The Playa, called this finding the “clearest commercial case in the report”.
