Odd One Out by Expanse Studios – a Remarkable Slot

Maltese game developer Expanse Studios is constantly working to add new exciting games to its already large portfolio. The latest release in the studio’s library is called Odd One Out, and it truly is a special slot game that differs from the rest of the crowd.
Odd One Out is a perfect blend of old-school gameplay with modern features. It’s a slot that will surely catch your attention. The easy learning curve makes it easy for beginners. However, don’t mistake it for being a simple slot. It features 243 ways to win with a few special features that can boost your winnings nicely.
Available for free or real money exclusively at Meridianbet casino, this game may truly be the odd one out in Expanse’s slot rapidly-expanding library. In a positive way, of course – you can see that on the first try.
Odd One Out Slot Gameplay
The Odd One Out slot machine has a 5x reel set with crisp-clear graphics. The symbols are nicely designed and feature old-school faves such as cherries, fruits, and diamonds. This isn’t a classic slot, mind you. It’s a blend between vintage slot machines and modern features that are typical for 2021 slots.
Using the fruits and diamonds, you can win in 243 different ways in the Odd One Out slot. Expanse’s latest release features a minimum bet of 25 credits, with wins formed left to right on adjacent reels. The only exception are scatter wins which pay in any direction. The RTP of the slot is 96% which is typical for most slot machines nowadays.
In terms of symbol payouts, the card royals are low-win symbols. The other ones are high-win symbols with the orange being the highest one – 400 coins for five on a line. Five bananas give you half of that, with the cherries following. The diamonds pay significantly less, but can still produce some great returns.
The slot has a pretty familiar layout and design. All of the important elements are at their spots, with a Spin and Autoplay button easily accessible. You can spin the slot across all devices, including PC, Mac, and Android and iOS devices. No need to download it – the slot is available exclusively on Meridianbet’s instant-play casino platform.
While the base game may be pretty straightforward, the real surprises come in the bonus features.
Special Features and Sky-High Payouts
There are two special features in the Odd One Out slot. The first one is called Magnetic Wild. Whenever a wild lands on the third reel, it can convert to a magnetic wild that turns the full reel wild. Land a winning combination on it and you will get a respin with the matching symbols sticky on the reels.
All non-winning symbols apart from the matching ones will slide out of the reels to vacant positions during the respin, allowing new symbols to take their place. Matching symbols from the left to the right will go a step forward to the magnetic reel and stay frozen on the reels.
The second feature is the free spins round. It is triggered with 3, 4, or 5 scatters, giving you 10, 15, and 25 free spins respectively. This is a one-time feature that can’t be retriggered. The free spins round is pretty straightforward, except this time, it comes with an x2 multiplier. Thanks to the ability to double your wins, the bonus round highlights the slot’s true winning potential.
If you’re looking for a cool slot machine the perfectly mixes the old with the new, Odd One Out is a perfect example. Available exclusively in Meridianbet casino, you can try the slot for free or real money. Meridianbet is the only casino where you can enjoy the full Expanse Studios’ portfolio with other unique titles that provide loads of fun.

This landmark achievement marks a significant milestone in the company’s expansion into Brazil’s thriving online gaming market, positioning Blitzcrown at the forefront of the region’s rapidly evolving iGaming landscape.
The license comes at an important time for Brazil’s gaming sector, following the launch of the new licensing regime that started on January 1, 2025. The regulatory framework, signed into law in December 2023, has transformed the industry’s prospects.
The certification encompasses 3 innovative crash games: Crash, Fast Crash, and Twin Crash. This strategic milestone establishes Blitzcrown as the premier provider of certified Crash games in the Brazilian market, demonstrating the company’s unwavering commitment to regulatory excellence and gaming integrity. With the GLI-19 and Brazil certification process successfully concluded in March, Blitzcrown has solidified its position as an industry pioneer in this dynamic and emerging market.
Crash games are a recent addition to the global iGaming market, featuring the dynamic evolution of real-time multipliers and immediate reward structures. Blitzcrown has stood out by establishing groundbreaking game mechanisms that offer different and exciting gameplay experiences. Standard Crash provides players with a standard multiplier-based gaming experience, and Fast Crash is optimized for users seeking quick, intense multiplier experiences. The Twin Crash is an original format allowing players to place simultaneous bets on two separate multipliers.
Building on this momentum, Blitzcrown has announced plans to expand its certified portfolio with two additional versions of its innovative Plinko games, demonstrating the company’s strategic commitment to market expansion. This forward-looking initiative underscores Blitzcrown’s dedication to continuous innovation and sustainable growth in the regulated gaming markets.
Blitzcrown is MVG’s edge-game studio focused on pushing game ideas beyond their norms through innovative and non-traditional gaming experiences. The studio has been particularly recognized for its groundbreaking approaches in various game categories, including its successful Crash and Plinko series.
George Cho from MVG said: “This GLI certification testifies to Blitzcrown’s unwavering commitment to offering top-quality, fair gaming systems. We are well placed to take advantage of Brazil’s exciting new regulatory environment and the vast growth potential of the online gaming industry.”

QTech Games sharpens its LatAm focus with MINCETUR licence in Peru

New certification for emerging-markets leader arrives ahead of key industry summit in Sao Paulo and awards recognition
QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for emerging markets, has had its platform and games successfully approved for the Peruvian market, demonstrating that its premier B2B platform and all-encompassing content conforms to the latest legislative updates to enhance and regulate Peru’s local gaming environment.
Peru’s Ministry of Foreign Commerce and Tourism (MINCETUR) has now issued an online gaming licence to QTech Games, whereby all its platform products and games are now deemed legally permitted. This includes its new software service for retail, QTech Hybrid, which allows land-based partners to scale their operations online. QTech Hybrid simplifies transactions by enabling deposits, withdrawals and gameplay while allowing access to players both in-shop and on personal devices.
This breakthrough hybrid solution has quickly won clients and awards in the comparably fragmented African market (most recently in March for Best Innovation at AGE Lagos), and now promises to do likewise across LatAm, where QTech Games has already signed several major clients for both its aggregation platform and its QTech Hybrid solution. This activity has seen it again nominated for Best Aggregator at the SiGMA Americas Awards, which kickstart the SiGMA Americas summit (7-10 April) next week, as the igaming world converges on Sao Paulo for a must-attend conference in another of QTech Games’ “focus markets” for 2025.
Philip Doftvik, QTech Games’ CEO, said: “It’s fantastic to have certified our aggregation platform in Peru via MINCETUR – and I’m pleased to say we have more such approvals pending across the continent. We attended fantastic events in Rio and, more recently, SAGSE 2025 in Buenos Aires – and anticipate more of the same at SiGMA Americas in Sao Paulo next week, where we’re also thrilled to have been shortlisted for Best Aggregator at their LatAm Awards. Given the venue, Brazil will be dominating the discussion for many at SiGMA Sao Paulo. However, we’ll also be looking beyond Brazilian borders this year, and are already active in Mexico, Chile, Colombia and Paraguay. We know our QTech Hybrid solution will work very well wherever we put a pin on the LatAm map.”
QTech Games delegates will be present at five more LatAm summits in 2025, with SiGMA Americas (7 April) the next port of call – followed by GAT Expo Cartagena (28 April), SBC Americas (13 May), Peru Gaming Show (18 June) and GAT Expo Mexico (28 Aug).
