Reel Football and roulette game Racing Riches to go live with existing
partners first
LONDON, UK - September 25, 2012 - HighSixes.com Ltd. (Passoker), a 20 %
holding of Venatus Interactive plc, announced that Reel Sports has today
been launched by Passoker founder and managing director Stuart Carr to
complement the existing Passoker offering and provide operators with
innovative, interactive casino and sportsbook games.
The first titles available from Reel Sports are Reel Football and Racing
Riches and will be launched in time for the eleventh European iGaming
Congress and Expo, EiG (16-18 October 2012), by existing partners of the
Passoker game, including William Hill, BetVictor and JenningsBet.
Reel Football is a unique video slot game that uses classic archive content
from the FA Cup, as licensed by the Football Association, within all areas
of the game.
Aspects of the timeless footage are utilised in the bonus feature, where
players predict the outcome of an incident, such as whether a penalty will
be scored or missed, before seeing the action unfold. Reel Football
features commentary and audio from Sky Sports' Martin Tyler and ex-England,
Nottingham Forest, Arsenal and Manchester United footballer Viv Anderson.
Fast-paced Racing Riches is an incident-based roulette-style game, which
plays alongside live as well as classic sports events. Wagering
opportunities are split into short segments lasting between two and five
minutes, which pay out fixed odds and every game contains potential
jackpots which reward in multiples of more than 10,000 times stakes.
Fruit icons are allocated to six lanes before they advance closer towards
the Racing Riches finishing line on the reoccurrence of randomly assigned
incidents, such as a free kick or goal in football.
Participants place chips on the board to predict the finishing position of
the fruits. Play ends when the first piece of fruit crosses the finishing
line, but rewards are paid out on all squares with fruit remaining,
according to chip values, entitling players to profit from multiple winning
positions at any one time.
'Launching our Reel Sports division is the culmination of a huge amount of
time, effort and investment behind the scenes over the past 12 months,'
said Stuart Carr, managing director of Reel Sports and Passoker (both 100%
subsidiaries of HighSixes.com Ltd).
'Our success with Passoker shows that our formula of incident-based games
is one that is popular and works very well. Passoker continues to exist and
Reel Sports uses the established game engine to extend our offering. We are
supplementing Passoker through the evolution of the initial concept and a
series of games that appeal to a different audience and player type,' he
adds.
