GBC Time has interviewed — Olga Bogdanova, the Art Director at 1spin4win, a fast-growing online slot provider. The company’s portfolio now includes 130+ classic slots, with 20 seasonal games designed to enhance player engagement through holiday-themed experiences.
In this interview, Olga discusses 1spin4win’s approach to seasonal slots, their impact on players, and what makes them unique, while also sharing insights into the creative process, holiday selection, and upcoming themes.
1spin4win has created seasonal slots for many holidays. Could you share which ones are already part of your collection?
You’re absolutely right! Our collection of slots keeps growing, with more variety in both game mechanics and themes. As 1spin4win becomes more popular, we’re focusing on adding slots that celebrate big holidays from around the world. This is a great way for our players to feel connected to different celebrations, which is something we truly value.
So far, our seasonal slots include Christmas games like Classic Christmas Hold and Win and Christmas Gems Hold and Win, Easter-themed slots like Diamond Easter and Lucky Easter 243, and Halloween with Mad Jack Hold and Win. We also have Lucky Fest Hold and Win for Oktoberfest, Lucky Clover Spins for St. Patrick’s Day, and for Valentine’s Day, Love Gems Hold and Win.
Love Gems Hold and Win is our latest February release and is especially close to our hearts. Set in a cozy bar with neon lights, the 3×3 reels are filled with stunning symbols and gems. The vibrant Wilds and popular Hold and Win Bonus game offer players a chance to win big, all while capturing the romantic theme beautifully.
How does the creative process differ when developing seasonal games compared to standard slots?
Creating any game is a challenging task for the creative team. The competition among providers makes slot development even more complex. The level of ideas, graphics, animation effects, and soundtracks has risen significantly in recent years, and it’s not easy to surprise players with traditional themes. We have to ensure that our games stand out visually, avoid copyright issues, and steer clear of conflicts with trademarks or media organizations.
When it comes to seasonal or holiday-themed slots, the challenge becomes even greater. With many similar holiday symbols and event clichés, the market is more crowded. This makes developing these games even more complex and requires extra responsibility. However, the overall process remains the same: research, brainstorming, creating concepts, team discussions, finalizing, and assembling.
For us at 1spin4win, team collaboration is key. We value everyone’s input, and working together is where our strength lies.
What makes seasonal slots like “Love Gems Hold And Win” special, and how do they stand out from your regular releases?
As I’ve mentioned before, seasonal slots like Love Gems Hold and Win are special because they capture the unique symbols and traditions of holidays, which makes them stand out. Time also plays a big role — holidays don’t last long, and that limited time makes these games even more captivating. For those few days, we focus on creating slots that bring joy to players who love combining luck with the festive atmosphere.
It’s always rewarding when players choose 1spin4win slots over many other great holiday-themed games. It shows we’re on the right track. This success comes not only from the hard work of our game design team but also from careful planning, strong support, and great collaboration. It’s a full team effort that we take seriously, and every year, we continue to grow and improve.
How does the team decide which holidays or events are worth creating seasonal slots for?
First, all our slots are the result of a business strategy based on market analytics and clear seasonal patterns for the regions we operate in. Second, we take into account the resources available within our studio. It’s only through strong teamwork that we can quickly respond to industry demands.
We focus on the key events of the year to stay in tune with global trends and popular topics. Since we’re a creative team, inspiration plays a huge role in choosing new games to create. We want to make something that excites, entertains, and captures players’ interest. One important ingredient in our approach is maintaining a positive attitude throughout the process. That energy directly influences the quality of the final product.
Looking ahead, what new holidays or themes can players expect from 1spin4win’s seasonal slot collection in the future?
This year, we’re making sure to cover all the important events of 2025! We’ll continue to surprise our fans with new seasonal games, each featuring even more stunning graphics. For example, we’ve already released Love Gems Hold and Win for Valentine’s Day, and the fun Clover Fest Hold and Win is on its way for St. Patrick’s Day, launching in March. We’re also working on a bright and colorful Easter slot, that promises to be something special you haven’t seen from 1spin4win before.
We’re eager to explore more seasonal themes and are fully committed to making it happen. We can’t wait to see how everything turns out, and we hope you’ll enjoy what we have in store. Be sure to check our website for all the latest news, updates, and new game releases!
Best of luck to everyone, and thanks for the wonderful questions!
