Classic JPM games go online at Bet 365 J
NeoGames scratches IGT’s back
N
eoGames has announced an agreement with International Game Technology (IGT) to sub- license its top licensed brands for the creation of online instant win and scratch card games. The agreement is a first of its kind for IGT’s Interactive division and allows NeoGames to create products based on the Company’s impressive stable of leading brands. MONOPOLY is the first brand to be sub-licensed from IGT with the release of MONOPOLY RICHES, available in multi-language and multi-currency, with a top award of 200,000 currency units. The title is offered to all branded operations of NeoGames.
PM Interactive has launched two new online AWP machines (amusement with prizes) on the sports betting site, Bet 365. In a departure from the readily available Vegas style slots, JPMi has
converted two of its most popular AWP titles from throughout its 40 year history to combine the traditional fruit machine concept with modern media. A respected brand and an acclaimed developer, JMPi is in the unique position of being able to develop online content from an extensive back catalogue of games consisting of more than 300 classic JPM titles. JPM Sales and Marketing Director Simon McCarthy explained: “Since JPM formed its interactive division in 2005 it has been developing a popular range of iconic Skill With Prizes (SWP) games such as Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, all powered by our unique patented gaming platform, Gameology. Converting the traditional and conventional portfolio of AWP assets online was the logical progression. Full House and Casino 5ive Liner are really well known by players; indeed Full House was one of our most popular games ever selling thousands of units.” Managing Director of Gaming at Bet 365, Steve Ibberson, said: “We are really very proud to be the first online with these acclaimed AWPs from JPMi. It’s great to be able to offer players new and exciting content which simultaneously has such a rich heritage and proven gaming popularity. We are pleased to be working so closely with JPMi and look forward to the release of additional well-known classic titles shortly.”

Ascot win boosts Dettori’s popularity
H
igh-profile jockey Frankie Dettori’s recent televised big race win aboard Rewilding at Royal Ascot is thought to have been the catalyst that triggered a
huge surge in player numbers on his new Frankie Dettori Magic Seven slot game at Genting Casino. Few sportsmen in the world have the popularity of the excitable Dettori, and his success at the Royal Ascot race meeting saw more than double the usual number of players race to play on the slot.
“Frankie Dettori’s Magic Seven slot game is the newest arrival,” commented Andy Bentley, Casino Manager at
GentingCasino.com “And since Frankie’s win at Royal Ascot this video slot game has become our most popular game overnight!”
The 25-line video slot game celebrates the magnificent seven winners in a row that Frankie Dettori rode at Ascot in September 1996, featuring real video footage and realistic sound effects, as well as Frankie himself as the Wild Symbol. The game is available on both instant-play and download.
