Turning up the heat in the interview with SlotsJudge

In a recent interview with Slots Judge, Pantel Spyrou, Head of Studio at Mancala Gaming, opened up about what really goes into designing slots that feel exciting and engaging. From his personal take on luck to why our team built one of our latest releases, Diego's Spicy Truck without a traditional Jackpot Free Spins feature, Pantel shares an inside look at how new online casino games come at Mancala Gaming.
 

Why Diego’s Spicy Truck?

With so many Mexican-themed free slot slots already out there, Pantel admits it might seem risky to create the new slot game Diego’s Spicy Truck. The idea was simple: design a game that’s fun and full of flavor.
And instead of the usual Free Spins, we doubled down on Respins. The Mancala Gaming team wanted to break the pattern and offer something that keeps players engaged in the best way possible.
Diego’s Spicy Game is fast, engaging, and packed with moments that demand attention. Pantel explains that the team’s goal was to create gameplay that keeps players actively involved, rather than letting the experience slip into passive play.
