ELA Games’ Tea Party of Fortune has been shortlisted for Slot Newcomer of the Year at the SiGMA Africa Awards 2026, highlighting the studio’s flair for narrative-driven design as the iGaming community prepares to convene at the Grand Arena in Cape Town this March.
An Inventive Take on a Classic Fairytale
Tea Party of Fortune earned its nomination thanks to its distinctive artistic style and multi-layered approach to the Hold & Win category. The slot moves beyond conventional static gameplay, featuring the “Overflowing Teacup” progression that builds anticipation during each spin.
The game’s charm lies in keeping players invested in the journey toward the Secret Garden through a range of active features. During the bonus round, colored tea-coins activate the cups’ magic, expanding the grid from 5×3 to 5×5, multiplying wins, and awarding extra respins, creating an experience as dynamic and whimsical as its theme.
Marharyta Yerina, Managing Director of ELA Games, commented:
“Having Tea Party of Fortune recognized at SiGMA Africa is a great moment for the team. We focused on bringing the characters to life through detailed animation and a story that unfolds as you play. Having our work acknowledged by the industry in such a vibrant market is a proud achievement for everyone at ELA Games.”
