North Dakota Approves New Tribal Gaming Compacts
With the existing state compacts due to expire next year, the North Dakota Governor and the state’s five tribal entities have signed new gaming compacts. The significant changes are to the legal gambling age on North Dakota reservation land, reducing it from 21 to 19, that online sports betting and casinos will be allowed, and potentially future state-wide online casinos if authorized by state and federal law.
Tribal parties were pushing for state-wide online casinos. However, Governor Burgum stated, “While we understand and appreciate the desire by some of the tribes to extend online gaming beyond their reservation boundaries, a clear legal path does not exist for the governor to grant such a broad expansion of gaming in the compact… We plan to work with the Legislature to bring all parties to the table and take a comprehensive look at gaming during the upcoming 2023 session, including sports betting, e-tabs, and other gaming.”
The next stage requires the Department of the Interior to approve the new compacts within 45 days.

Game of the Week
Terrific Tiger Coin Combo Slot. Light and Wonder, RTP: 96.15%
Terrific Tiger is a 5x3 new slot game from Light and Wonder; unlike most recent games, it’s a medium volatility number, and it comes with a Jackpot Feature, plus 6 different bonus rounds leading to maximum payouts of 11,973x the stake! Played with 243 ways to win, this slot starts how it plays, with a bang. There’s a Junk Boat Wild, which subs for non-bonus symbols and can appear on reels 2-4, but the Element Coins are the stars of the show, as they are the key to triggering the bonus rounds.
Element Coins come in red, blue, or green, and each that lands is added to the corresponding Element Bowl, ready to trigger a Free Spins feature with varying special features. The coins can also be combined, which delivers a total killer combo of six different free spin bonus rounds plus the jackpot game (the red coin starts the jackpot round, and if you trigger it, you’ll enter a click-and-pick round, searching for three matching Fu Baby symbols)! But that’s not all; there’s one more bonus feature, the Mystery Envelope feature, which is randomly triggered and rewards a coin win!
Ready to set your stakes and try to win the day in this brand-new action-packed slot? Then place your bets from $0.22 up to $20.88 and take it for a spin at these top-rated Light and Wonder US online casinos.
