Nocturn Play releases Cinder Clockmaker, Black Jaguar Temple

Nocturn Play's 4 October 2026 release adds The Cinder Clockmaker, Black Jaguar Temple and Fox Festival, a lantern ball-drop game with a four-level jackpot.

A day after its six-game release, Nocturn Play added three more titles on 4 October 2026, bringing its live catalogue to fourteen games at that date.

  • The Cinder Clockmaker is a ways slot on six reels of two to seven rows. Wins cascade, and a pendulum multiplier swings between ×1 and ×10, with a Grand Chime feature at midnight.
  • Black Jaguar Temple is a cluster slot whose grid expands from 3×3 to 7×7 as the round progresses, helped by golden cells and the jaguar’s Awakening.
  • Fox Festival moves away from reels entirely: a lantern ball-drop board with torii gates and spirit foxes, 14 rows, nine pockets, a Fox Procession bonus and a four-level jackpot.

The studio also used the release to tidy its website: game categories were reorganised and the game pages were rewritten across its 32 languages.

Why it matters: a growing grid and a ball-drop board are two different answers to the same player demand for visible progression during a round. Fox Festival also extends the studio’s instant-game range next to its crash title, Altitude Zero.
