Light & Wonder’s in-house studio Lightning Box has launched TimeLink Pyramid Dawn, marking the debut of its new TimeLink franchise and introducing a suite of mechanics designed to extend gameplay and drive player engagement.
The 1024-ways slot combines a Perceived Persistence mechanic with an enhanced Cash on Reel Respin feature, building on Lightning Box’s approach of refining proven gameplay concepts with innovative enhancements.
In the base game, Active Rings can land on reels 0 and 6, holding for three spins. When a Scatter Train aligns with a ring, respins are triggered, awarding Cash Prizes across the central reels with the potential for repeated wins of up to nine iterations. Scatter Trains also contribute to the Time Train Meter, which activates the TimeLink Feature once filled. 
The TimeLink Feature introduces a multi-layered bonus system, starting with three spins and up to five Active Rows. Additional Scatter Trains can unlock inactive rows and reset the spin counter, while Cash Prizes accumulate and are awarded at the feature’s conclusion. Additional modifiers, including Scatter Clocks and Jackpot symbols, enhance prize values and unlock further bonus opportunities.
A dedicated Jackpot Collection feature follows, offering both fixed and progressive jackpot tiers. Progressive jackpots — Mega, Grand and Major — are dynamically reseeded after each win, while Mini and Minor jackpots remain fixed, creating a balanced reward structure.
The title also includes a Free Games feature, triggered by Bonus Scatters, with retrigger potential and multiplier Wilds capable of delivering wins of up to 27x.
TimeLink Pyramid Dawn is currently available exclusively to Caesars customers in New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Ontario, supporting targeted rollout strategies in key regulated markets.
Michael Maokhamphiou, Studio Director at Lightning Box, said:
“TimeLink Pyramid Dawn is an exciting first step for this new franchise. We’ve developed a mechanic that maintains gameplay momentum while combining it with features and jackpots that deliver strong commercial value for operators.”
The launch reinforces Lightning Box’s focus on scalable, feature-rich content that balances player engagement with operator performance across regulated jurisdictions.
