British casino mFortune have launched a new Hansel & Gretel-themed slot machine. The game, based on the classic fairytale, and arriving just in time for winter, offers a unique twist on the slots genre by dispensing with the reels altogether and is exclusive to mFortune.

mFortune, one of the thousand most inspirational companies in the UK according to the London Stock Exchange Group, is an online casino specialising in slot machines and award-winning poker and bingo games. The company’s development team creates all their gaming software in-house, which means that mFortune has a unique offering in the casino sector.

Launched in 2007, mFortune has a mobile-first philosophy and all their games are free to download and play on mobile – as well as on their website. The casino has more than twenty original slots games in its roster this winter, in addition to blackjack, European roulette, two poker variants in Texas hold’em and hi-lo poker, and bingo.

There’s some indication that physical casinos will need to change their business model to appeal to the next generation of players but online gambling remains a growth industry according to Statista, with global income in the region of $46 billion (£37 billion) forecasted for 2016, an increase of $16 billion (£13 billion) from 2011.
