Meet the Superstar in Play’n GO’s Nyjah Huston – Skate for Gold Action-Packed Slot

When we say that the fella is a 6-time World Skateboarding Champion, it doesn’t take much to guess who’s the superstar in question. Play’n GO’s newest slot game, Nyjah Huston – Skate for Gold, celebrates athlete’s fantastic talent on board.

The action-packed instalment comes as a result of successful agreement between the studio, champ, and 5th Planet Games, bringing a completely refreshing topic into the world of digital one-armed bandits. Optimized in a wide array of languages, this medium variance title features 10 lines and an RTP of 96.20%.

Tribute to World Skateboarding Champion

Being a combination not often seen in the slot arena, the deal with a major athlete represents the first-time collaboration of such kind for the developer, resulting in a dynamic and marvelously designed Nyjah Huston – Skate for Gold.

Commenting on the unique nature of the latest title, Play’n GO CEO Johan Törnqvist said:

“We knew we wanted to work with the best when creating this game and Nyjah represents that. This is a theme very rarely explored in the world of slots, and it certainly hasn’t been approached from this angle before. But that’s a part of our commitment to bringing new gaming experiences to players, and new audiences to slot gaming.”

The popularity of this sport has been increasing rapidly…

…and it is expected to be introduced as a discipline into the 2021 Olympics. Capturing the traditional skate park roots of this sport, the game is adorned with amazing graffiti-style art. Closely connected with skateboarding for decades, this contemporary art movement became a sort of a synonym for it.

Unique Skateastic Features

Besides one of the most influential athletes ever to pick up a board as a superstar, the game pays tribute to Nyjah’s trademark tricks and skills. Representing the slot’s crowning achievements, both SKATE and Wildboard, challenge players to complete combos with Nyjah’s game symbols.

Once the Wildboard is triggered…

… the players get to see an animated Nyjah onto the grid as he kicks and flips across the reels, leaving a trail of Wilds in his wake. If the letter symbols land on the reels in the right order to spell SKATE, punters can unlock complimentary spins.

Active and Productive Year for the Studio

At the end of 2019, the Swedish supplier heralded the upcoming year as one of the most productive periods for the company, promising to introduce approximately 4 titles per month.

With an Egypt- inspired 5-reel slot Legacy of Dead…

…the opened the current year’s season, fulfilling its promise with one new title weekly. One of the most recent achievements is an(other) homage to the ancient civilization- Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead.

Though the setting may be seen and used (too) many times so far, the NEW moment in this game is the main protagonist, Cat Wilde. If the name sounds familiar, the feeling is right, as this brave character is the daughter of another fearless explorer from Play’n GO’s library - Rich Wilde.

The most recent of countless stories with courageous adventurer was Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena, depicting one more quest in search of mystical treasures.
