Inside Asian Gaming

37 products that create exciting gaming experiences for players while increasing profitability on the game floor,” explains Mr. Franic. “To realize this goal, we constantly evolve and improve our technology, which has allowed us to increase game performance and incorporate a variety of entertaining bonus features that attract players and provide a strong value proposition for our partners.” “We believe this principle can be applied successfully in Asian markets,” noted Mr. Franic. Flexibility This provides flexibility in dealing with the regulatory requirements of its different markets. This flexibility could greatly assist the company in its entry into Asia. In Macau, for example, the demand is for Class III machines with on-board random number generators. In some other Asian markets, Class II machines operated on a community gaming or bingo-based system, where players compete against each other rather than the house, predominate. Cadillac Jack will have the ability to work within many of the Asian markets since its slot products are available in either Class II or Class III formats. The products that will initially be introduced in Asia include the company’s popular 20 Line video reel games and its new series of 50 Line games. So Very Hot! Cadillac Jack’s top performing and most popular game, So Hot™, features multiple free game bonus events where all wins are doubled. This sizzling game has proven to be a crowd pleaser and the company has chosen to develop many of its new 20 Line games around the So Hot model. So Hot was introduced to Asia along with Double the Devil™, Gecko’s Gone Wild™, Sakura Sun™ and Star of Phoenix™ during the recent show, and will soon be placed into casinos in Laos and elsewhere. 50 Line Cadillac Jack’s 50 Line series is specially suited to markets where players enjoy machines set up for short bursts of max play, with frequent opportunities to hit the top awards. Those opportunities come during the free spin bonus, when three of the lower paying symbols morph into the highest paying symbols. What also makes the games extremely playable are the multiple vertical wilds which increase the reward amount and the game’s volatility. A sample of the new themes in the company’s 50 Line series were displayed at G2E Asia, including Asian-themed titles Tiger Magic™ andWild Ninja™. Tiger Magic™ was showcased during the G2E Asia in Macau
