Curwen points to Raptor 2 as an example of what this means in practice. The game went through no fewer than 17 versions during its first couple of weeks of development.
“Speed of iteration is probably the biggest difference,” he says. “Traditionally, every significant change can create another development cycle involving several different teams. With Game in a Box, the creator can iterate much closer to real time.”
Crucially, Curwen sees those efficiencies as a means to an end rather than the primary objective.

These internal changes form part of wider organisational shifts following Veikkaus’ May 2026 decision to establish two subsidiaries: one dedicated to exclusive operations and another for the newly competitive, licence-based market.
Veikkaus has submitted licence applications as a private entity, joining around 50 other companies that had applied to join the upcoming market by the end of June.
The company committed to a management reshuffle late last year as part of this transition, scrapping the role of deputy CEO after Velipekka Nummikoski was shuffled into a new role.

The design decision matters more than the garden-war premise. Coins can award an Instant Bonus, open Hold & Spin, or launch one of the wheel-driven Bonus Spins modes. That gives the whole feature set one consistent trigger.
That consolidation is the news hook. Rather than spreading activation across scatters, dedicated bonus symbols, and separate triggers, Play’n GO has made one symbol responsible for every route into a feature.
Everything runs through Coins. The Coin connects the four Instant Bonus tiers, Hold & Spin, and the two wheel-driven Bonus Spins modes, giving a busy feature set a single point of entry.
